Does anyone here actually believe that if Mike Brown could just snap his fingers and win his team a SB that he wouldn't do it? It would only profit him. His way of going about winning is pure crap in most opinions (including my own), but there is no proof that Cincinnati/MB doesn't want to win a SB... And I'm sure Burrow is smart enough to realize this. It was a trap question. DP gave Joe a question that could only be answered in a way that makes us fans worry. Chill people.

If he answers: "Going number 1 is more important." it sounds like he doesn't value winning a Superbowl enough. Almost as if he values himself and his contract over winning.

If he answers "Going to a run well, contending team is more important." then it creates the talking points of stuff like he may not want to be here, or doesn't think he can turn around a loser.

"Both" is not just the right answer, it's the only answer. At least the only answer that doesn't create more drama than need be.

Also, it's fair question. Albeit a bit of a softball and typical fluff you find in interviews. I can't believe people are acting like Dan Patrick served up some loaded bomb of a question. Dan Patrick is as good an interviewer you'll ever find. Nothing wrong about the interview at all.

When I watched some of the dynamic between Dalton and Taylor, and then seeing Dalton get benched, I have to wonder what Taylor is seeing that Dalton didn't...hopefully, Burrow will see and execute what he wants better than Dalton...That being said, I think Dalton was playing with one hand tied behind his back with a turnstile playing LT and no AJ Green...

I don't think we were watching the same Bengals team last year.

Where did you get this from what I said Fred? I said the pass rush was in Dalton's head...

Think that has a little to do with the O-line being bad against pass rushers....

If the pass rush was real then it was not just in Dalton's head.

I watched a lot of Bengal games last year and I did not see Dalton panicking when there was no pressure.  What I saw was poor pass protection that put Dalton under pressure.

BTW I have heard you claim that Dalton did not move to avoid the rush, but now you claim he was moving to avoid the rush even when it wa not there.  So which is it.  Did he stand in the pocket unable to move, or did he move out of the pocket too quickly?
