Also, I don't think a couple points made by Tannenbaum are bad.
Selecting Herbert and/or Sewell would have been fine. Both are very good players.
Chase and Burrow have been the difference makers this season though.
Probably saved Taylor's job, TBH.
I’ve got one friend who I text only a few times a year who’s a national ESPN college football color analyst. He’s about their 4th team on games. He’s says the public perception of ESPN ever once saying anything about promoting a particular team or conference is false. He said nobody has ever even suggested he promote or pump any team. As far as Tannenbum he’s been off on a lot of Bengal takes. The Bengals are different than all the teams. They don’t hire outsiders. They are almost purely run by family. That doesn’t endear them because they don’t hire people in the NFL workforce
