They mentioned the Chiefs player development staff consisted of approx 25 people, and the Bengals.......six. The sad reality is that Mike Brown will never pay the amount of money it would take for the team to be continually successful. He's not going to hire a first class administration, he's not going to hire a top notch coach, and he's not going to sign star players unless they're already here.....like Burrow or Chase. He'll pay one or two guys, and then go cheap in other areas to make up for the hit. That's the way it has always been with this organization and I don't know why it would change as long as Brown owns the team. Someone stated on a game thread post that this organization is such that players go to Cincinnati, they end up there.
I have no expectations of there ever being a Lombardi Trophy on permanent display in Cincinnati as long as MB owns the team. On the bright side I guess I could have been a fan of Detroit instead.
the bengals went to a super bowl a couple of years ago...won the AFC title...went to a conference championship gane 2 years ago and had it not been for Burrows injury last year who knows...this year it has been the perfect storm of bad.... starting defensive players and young rookies with promise all injured @ the same time on defense.........there is nothing wrong with this organization and Brown does pay his players ..Its a shitty season so far because of decimation of our defense..but it in no way takes awy from the success this club has had recently
