Carlos doesn't see 'the plan'

Bravo to Carlos! He said what most of us have been saying. What is the real plan? How can the plan be to win when we keep letting players walk, replacing them with cheaper alternatives off the scrap heap, and just sitting on cap space instead of trying to win now. I'm sure he's not the only player who doesn't understand and is frustrated by how Mike does things.

This is definitely not a good look for the team. Not the Mike Brown cares. His bank account will continue to grow and that's the important part to him. Unfortunately, Dunlap may get labeled a malcontent, but who can blame him? Your career is only so long, your team was actually pretty close to contention, but the front office has done absolutely zero to try and get the team over the hump.

I read an article on CBS this morning that said the Bengals have not guaranteed an outside free agent more than $4.5m this decade. That contract happened to go to bringing Michael Johnson back. Mike Brown's thought process is obvious. If he can bring someone in on the cheap and not lose a comp pick, fine. The odds of these cheap pieces pushing this team to the top are very slim.

While the team says they do what the successful teams do, they come nowhere close. The similarities just about end with the fact they play in the same league.
