Love Chad (probably my favorite Bengal of all time), but I think most of us could have done without the name change.
Yeah I hated Ocho Cinco as well, but "The Ocho" is taking a bad nickname and adding a slice of Hobson stupidity to make the ultimate cocktail of cringe.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

Same. Hobson used to pull this hackery.

Never pull for injuries on players not named "Big Ben" or "Hines Ward" though.
I'll do it. I officially am pulling for all 3 other teams in our division to be decimated with injury after injury after injury..Heck, slow painful agonizing gruesome deaths while I'm at it..How about their entire stadiums burn down with them in them? Bodies not found for years after the rubble is cleared!
Too much?

How about those teams' fans are injured due to the actions of the players? Like, Big Ben sneaks in an uzi and it accidentally goes off and kills 10,000 fans in the stands. ( Please note, I know that's not how guns work)

I'm confused. What exactly has Taylor accomplished?
Let's be real. All the cheerleading in the world doesn't turn all those losses into wins.

Having a worst record after his 1st 2 seasons than Dave Shula?

He's put together a pretty impressive roster for this year.... gotten MB to open the purse strings in Free Agency.

I don't feel you can call this an impressive roster until after they've actually played impressively. So far under Taylor there's been very little impressive play.
The free agency spending is, in my book, part of the Blackburn plan and so it Taylor, and that will all change as they continue to put up losses.
So far those free agent signings have produced little. Can't forget the Miller 3 year deal, the Webb 3 year deal, the Hart 3 year deal or Preston Brown's 3 year deal. Hart was the only of those guys to even made it into the 2nd year of his contract. Waynes isn't as good as Willie Jackson.
