There are also several people on this board who overrate underperforming Bengals players and minimize losses in free agency.
ie Letting Zeitler and Whitworth walk is smart! (Like the Bengals invested that money wisely in other areas.)
ie Guys like MJ do things that don't show up on the stat sheet, like set the edge. (We're a historically bad run defense! We don't set the edge!)
I blame part of the Whitworth / Zeitler leaving on Paul Alexander. This guy was a cancer to the future success of this organization. Either Marv or Mike Brown relied on this guy's opinion too much. The Piano Man convinced the organization to draft Fisher and Ced as a replacement for these two vets. Also, who's idea was it not to draft DeCastro who is now with the Steelers? That was a bone head move and once again the Piano Man had some input in this decision. Paul Alexander's input on the o-line has set the organization back years not to mention what he did to it over the past two decades. It is good he is gone, but I shake my head as why Mike let this incompetent boob be on this staff for so long. I would be surprised if he returns to the NFL. He is just a bad coach.
