Dig deep and Zimmer still at heart of Bengals defense
Perfect example of what I was talking about. Zimmer treated players fairly and they responded with great play. Clearly if Dunlap was the problem then he would have quit on Zimmer.
Don't know what you consider "ultra-rich" or what that even has to do with anything, but Dunlap had earned over $40 million by the time Zimmer made these comments to him.
BTW I want to move on from discussing Dunlap. I am hoping that Lou has learned something about coaching. Bates said that Lou has learned from some of his mistakes regarding communicating with his players. It is a shame the Bengals had to suffer while he learned, but I am hoping that he will be a better coach moving forward. I would rather look forward hoping for success than keep bashing him for his previous mistakes.
