In another post somebody is telling me that the Bengals offered him the same  money as the Rams and he chose to leave.

Which is it?

The bottom line is one of Whitworth or Zeitler should have been franchise tagged. Personally I would have kept Zeitler. They could have still signed Smith then to play Tackle and had a decent line.

Pretty much every player on the roster has shxt the bed come playoff time, from Dalton to Green to Whit and Z.  To say those guys have no responsibility for that is silly.

Whit was still a good player last year, no doubt, but his time is about up.  Again, I would've liked to keep him, but I would not jeopardize getting deals done with Eifert and Burfict to do so.  We saw last year just how important Eifert is to this offense putting points on the board.  While I think he crosses the line way too much, the D plays better with a healthy, in shape Burfict flying around.  Those guys are in their primes and have a lot of football left.  Whit has one, maybe two years left.
