And how quickly we forget, that Bates had a down year, whined about the money, ADMITTED that the contract affected his play, etc. The team is bigger than one player with a poor attitude. Also, I believe Lou will figure thing out.
Did missing Bates hurt us last year? Absolutely! Do I wish we had signed to that big deal? Absolutely not.
Do the Bengals sometimes lean too much to the conservative side? Yes. But like the Bills were mentioned and there are other examples of recklessness. The Broncos and Browns are others. They don’t get credit enough frankly for widespread success. The players love it here. They have no drama. The culture as good as anywhere. They’ve had little turnover in the roster and staff. They have the smallest scouting and front office staff. Yet they’ve done pretty good considering. I like the info about they actually formed a blue print to get much better.It sounds like they took advantage of the time they had at the end of the season. They usually don’t.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
