I hear ya, but what can you do?  We had Dalton on a team-friendly deal and it still wasn't friendly enough so the solution the NFL has found as of late is to get a QB on a rookie deal and then put the money elsewhere.  But then your QB wins and then wants like a billion bucks per year and then it turns into a one man team situation.  We have high hopes for Burrow and if he meets them we are going to eventually have the Joe Burrow one-man squad.  Such is life.

The life of a Bengals QB in the MB era:

start with Cincy
leave on less than stellar terms
go to your home state (Boomer = NY Jets, Palmer = Raiders, Andy = Dallas)
end up in AZ
put up some oddly high numbers at times
Nately120 buys your Cardinals jersey because who the hell in Steeler country wears that sort of thing?


So Dalton is on step 3 as of now.
