AJ's statistics weren't that bad last season, but he wasn't happy, and he's ready for a big year:
I love it because, like I've been saying, we're changing the entire culture with new players and new coaches. We're not settling for mediocrity because we want to take the next step.
I also love that he says he needs to learn to stay calm because that's been a problem with this franchise: one thing goes wrong, the team gives up, and things start to snowball out of control.
He knows he an Andy need to get back on the same page and that he wasn't on his game last season:
I feel like having an entire offseason with Lazor's new offense, along with a new receivers coach, will ignite Green and he'll play with a new energy and put up a HUGE season!
I'M LOVING IT BECAUSE EVERYONE IS BUYING INTO THE SEASON AND THE NEW COACHES!
WHO-DEY!
AJ might be the most likeable Bengal I can remember. Even all of my Steelers fan friends always say they can't help but respect and like AJ. Dude is the definition of class, and literally is never satisfied. I know Rice will probably always be the greatest of all time, but I think AJ is going down as my favorite receiver over all. He plays the game as well as anyone, and he just does and says all the right things.
On the other side of the ball, we have Geno, who seems to carry himself with the same quiet professionalism, while performing exceptionally, as AJ. Theres been plenty of negative in this era of Bengals football, but those two play the game as well as anyone in the league, and manage to do it with total professionalism. Nothing wrong with a little showboating, but its so refreshing to see two amazing athletes not worried about the individualism that is so prevalent in the NFL.
I hope we put together something special over the next couple of years, and make sure #18 and #97 walk away from this league with big gaudy diamond encrusted rings.
