..some other lesser guys, and literally all of their RBs.
They pretty much built themselves to go all-in for a 2 year run there. It paid off, they won a SB, but now they've got to pay the price a bit for it. (I'm sure nobody is really complaining as it's a price worth paying.)
Wow didn't realize that, thanks. Those are a lot of quality players they won't be able to keep. Would like to scoop up a couple.
As Ceasar here says...

For sure, sounds like he would take a discount or he wouldn't say he wanted to play with Burrow.
We aren't going to pay top dollar for a 34 year old TE with a history of knee injuries.

If All-Pros and future HoFers want to come here and help the Bengals win SBs, they are welcome. Doubly so if they are coming on below market contracts.
Damn rights.

Maybe he is satisfied with the money he has and would want to come here for another ring, but, like I said, I don't know if he'd want to come here since Cinci isn't the most glamorous place and I don't know how well it would go over with the team's chemistry.
He wouldn't of said what he said if he didn't want to come here.

My exact thoughts.
