I could have made them look more inept and only went back a decade (3 wins), but I figured SINCE their last Superbowl was a good starting point and a dozen years may be enough to illustrate the point.
We can just use the Zac era and Cincy still wins. Point being folks need to get off Baltimore nutz in efforts to make us look more inept.

Baltimore has a QB choking in the biggest moments problem. At that point, do you get rid of a player of Jackson's caliber, or hope that at some point he overcomes that and wins a ring?
Would you just give up on a QB with his athletic ability and production over the last couple years?
Other than that, they are head and shoulders better than the Bengals in building a competitive, annual playoff team and they've dealth with a shit ton of injuries to multiple players. Hell, they didn't even need to suck so bad they got a franchise QB with the #1OA pick.
You and luvnit both made comments about getting off baltimore to make the bengals look worse. The bengals front office does that well enough on their own. They don't need fans pointing it out. It's right there for everyone to see.

How do you take Baltimore is a great organization (which I stated and mentioned also) to say I was saying getting off Baltimore. I literally said they are better than the Bengals and did not trash them at all.
Oh well, I guess I live in your head for some reason

Yes, Ravens have a great FO and so do Eagles, Bills, Chiefs and others.
I admit our FO is not top 10.
Then i said this.

Did you notice those DNQ years by BAL? It's because we had a coach and QB who built a competitive annual playoff team during that period. I'm pretty stoked about the team that wins when it gets there.
But, you're not alone. The Commish loves Baltimore, too. He changed the rules mid-season to try to help them take the division and home game from Cincy because they're a "better organization."..
Folks may not need fans pointing out the Bengal FO doesn't do "well enough", but it damn sure doesn't stop some from doing it over and over and over and over and over and over again.

Right.
When you're in the public spotlight and you suck over and over and over and over and over and over again, compared to your peers, people might point it out a couple times.
Or maybe, if others didn't try so hard (not you) to point out how well the Bengals do their job, when they really don't, then people might not highlight it so much.

But you're the one who said folks don't need to point it out.

Right. That's the problem. It should be obvious, but apparently it's not, so...i need to remind foo's.

So, do they need it or not? You're talking in circles.
You can be a fan of the BAL model all you want; I like what Cincy has done over the last few years.
Imma ask a question IDK the answer to. Has any AFC other than KC won more playoff games than Cincy in the last 4-years? I know only one AFC tam has stopped KC in that timeframe and it damn sure ain't the Ravens, They haven't beat them in the playoff in over a decade.

More? No. Buffalo is tied with 5 over that timeframe.

I'm not talking in circles. I'm saying it should not need to be pointed out. Then someone(s) come along and go on and on about how well they're doing....nvm. Lemme just get to that question so we can move on.
Chiefs - 11
Eagles - 6
'niners - 6
Rams - 5
Bills - 5
Bengals - 5
Then it's a few teams with 2. So Cincy and the Bills and the Bills can't get by the Chiefs. Burrow and Brady are the only AFC QBs to get by Mahomes.
P.S. I'm not a "fan" of Baltimore's model. I simply replied to a post that compared Baltimore to Cincy.

Thx. Pretty sure it's known I could be classified as a "homer", but I like what we're doing.
As to the OP: I would LOVE to see how much of Ramsey's salary Miami would eat for a 3rd Rounder. And the biggest issue I have with the FO is our propensity to sit on our hands "in-season" when a starter goes down.

That is true and something the better FO's seem to get done.
We lose someone for the season and do squat finding an equal or even better replacement.
