They never rebound to start the season productive. We should know that better than any fanbase.

Wrong..minicamps are no more than basically meeting your fellow players..finding your locker and taking in the playbook..a few hours of tag football

It's true. I just got back from 2028, MB is no longer with us and the former Bengals, now the St. Louis Blackburns have just won the Super Bowl. The Cincinnati Bengals are a new expansion team that is going to build around what experts are calling the next Time Couch, Tom Loveseat.

You've clearly never played football at any level.

Hey, I get it. But they played at the same school and were the most disruptive players on the DL and are about the exact same size and weight
to go along with the talent. I like that we got a new DL coach to hopefully help him out so the haters can be shut up once he is signed.

BTW, pretty funny Garrett saying he has a good opportunity to put Aaron Rodgers in the graveyard on Halloween lmao

That is the question. People are really hating on Shemar today for his words as well. Not smart saying what he said before he has done anything
in the NFL. Just hope this all smooths out because as your gif shown, right now it is a dumpster fire.

What language are they trying to add to his contact, that they haven't used before?

Actually they do..every single day ..dozens of sports commentators offer personal discourse and opinion regarding almost every team in the NFL

Good question, I would like to know the details on why it is such a terrible rookie contract...

Stewart will be signed..he will be in summer camp..you clearly dont understand manditory minicamps..players are not even allowed to wear pads..me playing football or you playing football at any level has nothing to do with facts

I am okay how the FO has handled Trey to a point, but this is inexcusable with Shemar Stewart IMO.

I excuse what is going on with stewart because when all is said and done its meaningless..life goes on...stewart will make his millions..he will be in summmer training camp and hopefully will help our defense..If you want to dwell on what you consider to be dysfunction look no further than cleveland and the circus surrounding the quarterback situation..

(06-10-2025, 11:49 PM)Nate (formerly eliminate08) Wrote: Also, if you don't see a big, fast, strong, athletic freak with a lightning quick first step in Shemar's tape you haven't watched much.

Seriously, this guy has the talent to be another Myles Garrett if coached up correctly.

Some people just hate Shemar, strange to me.

1000%

No...Some people go through life living in the past and complaning about everything...and some people like me see promise in most things...even with a multitude of injuries the past 4 years including those of your starting quarterback...offensive tackles..numerous defensive starters..this team has a very good record...we have burrow and company..Paycor will be renovated..the bengals will sign a new lease...and even the reds have a good manager and some very good young players..life is good

Yes Trey’s demands are likely too high. But the Bengals put themselves in this position. Suck it up butter cup and make a deal. They could have had Tee & Chase much lower but they are as skittish as those rescue dogs on social media. This franchise is more conservative than a bank coming out of the depression.

They do excellent in many areas but are too conservative in the salary cap

so he doesn't wanna practice? arent these mandatory practices?

Says the guy who keeps bringing up a couple deep playoff runs from several years ago.

I don't mind him speaking up because we've seen the Brown family take the difficult path with players and player contracts for decades.

They cannot be mandatory for someone not technically under contract.
