Also PFF did one excluding team QB and we ranked 9th,  

1) Some of the people saying the Bengals are cheap aren't going to look for sites that talk about their roster strength. They're only going to recognize stars. Bengals have a really good team, but how many of the players outside of Burrow, Chase, and Higgins would the outsider NFL fan be able to name? Bengals roster has some underrated guys that just aren't big names.

2) Even if they have a good team on the field, it doesn't change the fact some see the ownership as cheap. Even if they did pay top dollar for some premier talent, some things like stadium quality are considered toward the bottom for NFL. For example, New York Times listed Paycor Stadium 27th out of 30 stadiums in the NFL.

Quote:The 23-year-old stadium cracked the bottom five on 13 ballots, finishing in the same spot as 2020.

Quality of the team and a franchise's frugality are not the same thing.
