Higgins signs new deal?

Burrow is most likely waiting to see how much money is needed to keep Tee and then work with what's left to get his deal done for himself. 

But i think the biggest key is signing after a certain date so that the Bengals have an extra year to allocate the money for the guaranteed money on Joe's contract (I could be wrong about the date thing, but i remember reading it somewhere).
 

You can sign before the date and designate it to start after the specific date. Same with cuts.

A lot of that was pressure from blizting, not the DL. Especially Hilton.

True, those were some great blitz calls with Mike from Lou. Hendrickson was getting tons of pressure though, same with Ossai.

We were a better DL than the Bills at that time though for sure and the weather didn't help them out.

That was one of Lous best called games IMO. Allen was uncomfortable that entire game.

Tila Tequila? A bit old for young Tee.

Absolutely. Cinci. DL had no issue putting pressure on Allen. They hit him a bunch. Bengals simply played with a confidence and energy that the Bills could never find which is exactly what football is about. Weather had nothing to do with it.

Also a neo-Nazi, so I kind of doubt that's his speed.

We were also dominating them with perfect weather conditions in Cincy before that game got stopped. That Bills team just didn’t match up well with the Bengals.

True, sure didn't affect us at all, we played great in all aspects in that game.

It is an all time classic in my eyes if you want to watch our Bengals play fantastic in the Playoffs in the snow.

The damn Chiefs game just overshadowed it because it was a heartbreaker. We will get them bastids the next time around.

Yes, we will see if the Bills with Von Miller healthy will give us more problems in the future, but damn, Burrow seems to have their 
Defense's number and our Defense seems to have their Offense's number. We match up really well against the Bills. Sucks for them.

Mixon was even running all over them in that game.

That’s why using the weather as an excuse is so silly. It’s BUFFALO. If any team is accustomed to those conditions it’s them. They play in literal blizzards up there.

Agree, our OL had a great game against the Bills front and a terrible game against the Chiefs more talented front. Simple as that.

Actually, shown me some hope with Scharping against the Bills and most notably Carman who didn't play terrible against the Chiefs in 
Arrowhead either.

Would be fantastic if Carman took over the RT job and played well. This is what I am hoping more than anything this year talking specifically
about player growth, this and the 3-tech position is where if someone plays well we are in great shape.

The Bills were not mentally into that game
Once the Bengals jumped out to that
2 score lead. People don't realize how emotionally
Drained that whole Bills team was dealing with
The Demar Hamlin situation.
The Billa had to play catch up the whole game
And their offense became very predictable.

More excuses.

Bengals were the better team (twice). Period.

Bad take. The Bengals jumped out to that lead because they were simply the better team.

Of course they were the better team. But being 
The better team, there is more to it than just having 
Better Scheme and execution. 
The Bills looked flat and mentally not there. 
The game is Also determined between the ears 
And inside the heart 

[wanga]

What about the Cincy game though? Bengals jumped out there as well.
Nah they had the Bills measure last season.

Burrow and Higgins are in the same draft class.....
