Burrow can still win it all, but the issue is that this situation is even remotely relatable to the last #1 overall pick QB we took that has people clutching the proverbial pearls.



 
By my worthless opinion, this franchise didn't do terribly right by Palmer, Dalton, or Burrow.  If Burrow voices issues with this, let's just say the Bengals may not get the benefit of the doubt yet again this time in what I see as "strike three."  Palmer was a "quitter crybaby" and Dalton was an "over-achieving mid-tier dude" but I think Burrow going down the same not so pleasant path turns the narrative on all 3 in the eyes of many.


Or maybe we just go on a 10+ game winning streak and all is well. 

Fans are so uninformed about Palmer, he wanted this organization to have a single goal; try to contend every year. He wanted better facilities to attract free agents and to pay free agents.
