quite a day in Bengaldom

What is so good about these two players is that it don't matter where they are in their contract, they give 100% all the time, everyday. It's really refreshing watching these guys play and knowing they will give their all and not play "Up" because it's a contract year.

These guys deserve every penny they get...it is well deserved.

Super fantastic news !

What happened to the Geno thread? Does the re-signing of one of the greatest Bengals of all time not warrant its own thread?

Anyway, super happy we got Dunlap extended as well. I knew we wouldn’t let Geno get away, but I was a tad worried about keeping Dunlap. Great day for Bengals fans.

This has been the best off season that I can recall with the exception that Marv should have been fired.

Outstanding news to get both signed up before the season starts, now I hope Dennard is next.
I was reading some where that along with Billings, this is the scariest D-Line that we have had for some time and I am glad that they will be together for at least another 4 years

Ironically, prob the best since Marv was hired.

Haha, so true. Pretty cool to see the Bengals being proactive on multiple decisions this offseason.

Holy shit! Where's the Tylenol?

I've said a few times already....this FO has done a bang up job this off-season. Today makes it the best off-season I've ever seen them have. Son of Paul has really pulled back the purse strings!

I got a real strong feeling that someone else is being allowed to handle most of the GM duties.

I agree....but it's still the ol mizer's money at the end of the day. I'd think he still has to sign off on it.

Very happy to be a Bengals fan today we took care of our own and we locked them up for the last prime years of their career

I'm happy for these guys - two quality character dudes who have been really exciting to watch for some time now. That's money that'll be well earned no doubt.

No but seriously. Like he hasn't even been close the past 2 years. 

Very happy we were able to get both guys resigned, especially Geno. No disrespect to Carlos, but we have a lot of great young DE talent which made Geno more of a priority in my eyes. The DL looks stacked for the next few years.

Does this finally end the false narrative that the Bengals are always too cheap to re-sign vets?

Best news yet !

Who was your board buddy who kept saying "quit worrying, they will not let Atkins or Dunlap get away, and will re-sign both"??? You know who it was, it was SLED, wasn't it..... Great job FO....

A lot of narratives are getting dispelled this offseason.
