Bengals doing all they can to salvage the Chase pick.

I’ve never said one bad thing about chase personally, and think he’ll be a fine receiver

But I absolutely do not blame people being rubbed the wrong way with the drops and now this. Plus most people didn’t want him on the team in the first place

This is how fandoms are. I have no doubt he’ll be a productive player here in cincy

If we drafted Micah Parsons, we’d be complaining about how he can’t cover TEs.

If we drafted Waddle or Smith, we’d be crying about their injury history at the first sign of a blister.

If we drafted Surtain, we’d by crying about how he doesn’t intercept every pass thrown his way.

All this before even reaching the regular season. My point is, we love to whine whine whine instead of just waiting until some meaningful games to make a more educated opinion on the guy. Everyone has their narrative and for some reason instead of rooting for a guy who is going to be a Bengal to start his career they want to chastise them to prove they were right all along. I just think the motives are asinine.

Agree with you though, all fan bases are like this… it’s just Americans lol.

Gonna go cry about it now.

Twenty-one years ago this week, Bill Walsh stood before the skeptical Bay Area media and defended a controversial decision. He told them that the 49ers' troubled rookie wide receiver would remain a starter despite several bad performances.
The rookie's name was Jerry Rice.
The 49ers, fresh off a victory in Super Bowl XIX, were 6-5 and fighting for their playoff lives. Joe Montana's passing numbers were off. Rice, the team's top draft pick, had 26 receptions in 11 games, but he also dropped 10 balls, some of them at the worst possible times. He was coming off a game in which he dropped two passes, fumbled once, and caught just one pass. Niners fans booed the rookie; local columnists made him the butt of jokes. Freddie Solomon, a respected veteran who caught touchdown passes in 10 straight games in 1984, had become the invisible man in the Niners offense while Montana and Rice played pitch 'n' drop.
But Walsh held his ground, supported Rice, and kept him in the weekly gameplan. "At some point, the boos will turn to cheers," predicted Walsh during a press conference on November 18th, 1985.
That point was only a few weeks away.
