He is a very good man and does want to win, but he is tremendously inflexible and wants to have total control - a trait he inherited from his father - and we know that Paul was a great football mind and wanted to win. My big disappointment is that Troy Blackburn appears to have taken on the mantle of stubbornness without the accompanying intelligence and creativity it's going to take to turn the franchise around.
Interesting interview of George Iloka in the Athletic asking him if he feels that the Bengals are committed to winning. Well thought out and articulate response. I enjoyed it.

And boy Nate, I really hope he uses the opportunity of a large amount of money to spend and the prospect of a very exciting new QB to invest significantly in the off season.
Getting Thuney, Littleton and a quality tackle in free agency would set us up well to take advantage of the draft.
How do I read the entire interview 3wt? I could only read the beginning and I couldn't scroll down.
I agree with you as usual BTW. I don't think we will get a Guard and a RT in FA but I do think we should get a Guard and a LB.
Think we will have to draft our RT of the future most likely. Which isn't a bad thing if we make the right pick somewhat early.
We do have a great opportunity with the first pick in each round. Just don't screw it up MB and company.
