If not getting a contract after all this wasn’t a reminder enough.
This is about to get ugly.
I wish MB would get the wake up call. Seriously with his track record his is the side you take. We don't want to set a precedent of paying players 2 years early. But we're fine telling players if you play just above average in a position that isn't valued that highly we might pay you. But if in a high valued position and top league play you can get paid by another team after 5 to 6 years playing for the Bengals.
We all side with the Bengals when they decide not to pay players and push them thru with the tag. But we are missing out by not pushing the cap to the max and getting creative. The fact the Bengals have the only tagged player not signed to a long deal and the only 2 good receivers not signed is not a positive. Do we really think the things that make us an outlier from the entire NFL is because we are smarter?
