So much so that when it didn't happen I stopped posting in JN because I didn't want to be that negative guy.
But why? Because I saw a QB that couldn't play for Ohio State and had one MAGICAL season at LSU with a loaded roster. Thoughts of Akili popped into my head.
But his completion percentage and playoffs and Super bowl!? Thanks Defense and high percentage throws. And a stacked receiving core. And luck. It seems that once in a blue moon the football gods smile down and award the Bengals a AFC championship trophy.
Don't hate the guy just don't think he is Jesus. More like "Good Andy" but at $275 mil. and my gut says that contract is going to haunt this team for a long time.
FWIW I have felt this way for years, again I didn't want to be the negative guy. I saw this thread at the top and decided to let it all go.
It's okay my man. IT's what the thread is for.
I remenber Joe Brr's magical year at LSU and thought, "well, anyone could do that with Jamar Chase AND Justin Jefferson. He was carried but great playmakers to an extent no doubt.
I wanted Justin Herbert too.
