surprise Bengals standing pat with their team instead of trying to improve

Here is the deal.  Historically NFL trade deadline deals are very rare, so it takes a troll to claim that the Bengals not making a deadline deal means they don't care about winning.

That happens a lot around here.  The Bengals do something that most other teams do and a certain group here starts squealing about how it proves the Bengals are Clueless/don't care.

There have even been a few around here who have been spreading lies just to get fans more upset.  For example the Raiders were supposed to be giving Jared Cook away for nothing.  That was just total troll BS.

Historically speaking that may have had some merit. Now that compensatory picks can be traded and the nfl moved the trade deadline back two weeks, there have been more trades. Forward thinking teams with good qbs on rookie deals have the ability to add payroll to address areas of needs.

In terms of Jared Cook, a raiders beat writer commented that virtually everyone could be dealt prior the deadline. Teams generally do not come right out say player x is on the block
