With Burrow, this team will never be really bad. They know that they can field a middle-tier roster and win 8-9 games with Burrow. Then, if things break right win 11-12 games and maybe make a playoff run. That's precisely why you keep Tee and Chase. Have a high-powered offense.
But, yes...they aren't going to spend every penny to make a great offensive line and defense. They're going to rely on unproven young guys to take a leap. It hasn't worked.
And teams like the Bills, Chiefs, Ravens, and Steelers aggressively try to improve their rosters.
Yes..you are correct..I sat in on meetings with Mike, Katie, Elizabeth and Zac. and was made aware of a complete lack of football knowledge and business accumen..Their only goal was to field a .500 team..and interestingly..both Burrow and Chase later came to said meeting and could not have been happier to realize that the intentions if the Brown family was to field a mediocre roster
Are you for real man...the team ..the past four years has one of the better winning percentages in the nfl...burrow was injured in 2023..in 2024..as he admitted he was still fighting a lingering injury...we had a boatload of injuries additionally in 2024..including our two starting offensive tackles..starting running back and numerous defensive starter etc...and still managed a winning season..
Again..you may not like the changes made but in fact the team..started to address deficiencies by firing their defensive and offensive line coaches immediately when the season ended
And in the draft and FA focused on both the defense and offensive line..Maybe not the players you wanted but too bad..It is just terrible that the team did not sign some big name players in their thirties that are in the tail end of their careers and overpriced
Not a single game has been played..training camp has not even started..we cant even begin to determine if the aforementioned changes will prove to be positive or not..and you are already doom and gloom
This nonsense with hendickson is just that..He signed a contract extension a few years back and should honor it ..Regardless..the defense stunk even with Hendrickson and if the younger players, the drafted players..FAs signed..and Golden do not turn it around..it will not matter if Hendickson js here or not
And as an estute football fan..you also know that the roster is not yet complete..there Will bemany really good players that will be cut by various teams in summer camp and some may be acquired by the bengals.
I sometimes cannot believe the hypocrisy..You all clamor for Brown to keep Burrow, Higgins, Chase..he spends zillions of bucks to do so and then refer to him as cheap a couple of months later
I think ..should injuries not obliterate this team once again...its going to be a very good year for the bengals...have a great afternoon
