Can someone name a better receiving core?

I personally never got the impression that effort was an issue with him. He definitely seemed boneheaded at times, but that's 50% of every player that ever suited up for the Bengals. Wes pointed out Lapham's silence on AJ Green doing drills before games. Hell... He talked about how amazing he looked. We all know now that there was nothing amazing about AJ Green from 2019 - 2020.

I didn't hear the podcast that PDub was referencing, but I can't get behind Lapham or anybody else being revisionist with the way things ended for Dunlap. To say he only cared about sacks is like saying Chad only cared about TDs and celebrating. Dunlap ran guys down from behind, stripped the ball, tipped the ball, made game saving plays, scored TDs, recorded interceptions, blocked kicks, brought energy, tried to involve the crowd, and he certainly wasn't bad against the run.

Wasn't saying his opinions are always correct...just saying that he's likely repeating things he's heard inside the building. So I don't judge him on what he says because I keep that in mind. Especially with the Gresh situation, because it seemed Marvin took issue with Gresh as well.

As much as we see, we really don't know compared to the guys in the building, and that may have been a question for Marv and others...at that time.

Tbh, I think some people just don't like the way the guy speaks and once people decide they don't like someone, they tend to only view them through a negative lens.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
