Kind of a silly rule as JN is for all things Bengal related. Hard to imagine Whit hitting an NFL milestone is not Bengal related.
Also AJ Green went over 10,000 receiving yards in this game..
I get the frustration (I really do), but it keeps things nice and simple. People often look for ways to skirt the rules and throw threads they want seen into JN.
Say a guy wants to stir up things in JN by dumping a thread about how great Dalton played with the Bears (making a scenario up here, obviously). Should we allow that? Wouldn't that detract from relevant Bengals discussion?
Well if we allow this thread about Big Whit, then we'll get complaints of bias and double standards from Joe Troll who just wants some laughs watching people argue about Dalton in 2021.
There's various other reasons, but the main reason is keeping it simple for us, and allowing less "grey area" for people to argue and nitpick every decision.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
