Now I’m not gonna sit here and bang the table for dalton but if we invested in GOOD offensive lineman during off seasons the last three years we would’ve seen the dalton that was balling back in 2015 but of course what else did this cheap franchise do... not only did they get rid of their best offensive lineman to protect the poor guy they also let both Sanu and Marvin Jones walk which of course didn’t make our offense better.  I know I know Marvin Jones wanted to be number 1 somewhere and wanted to leave.  

But sanu too?  This team needs to change its ways overnight or guys like Stephen A and much more will continue to say the same thing.  And as they should it’s well deserved here in Cincinnati.  A lot of u bums in here will ride this team no matter what which is an enabling injustice to the team city and fan base who wants and should demand better.  Don’t even bother quoting me on this and commenting I won’t read it, it don’t matter to me what some of u tool sheds have to say back.  It’s bias bs

There's some truth in what you're saying, but I look at it like this. Is Tua really better off in Miami than Burrow is in Cincinnati?

Miami hasn't won a playoff game since 2000. They have 2 playoff appearances in the last 18 seasons. They haven't produced a good QB since Marino. They didn't win a Super Bowl with Marino, who is probably a top 5 QB ever.

Compare that to Cincy, which has 7 playoff appearances since 2005. Produced 2 QB's with good careers in Palmer and Dalton. Not to mention they just splurged in free agency to build a team around their next QB.

Yeah the Bengals aren't perfect. Far from it. Many of the problems mentioned are very real. That said, if I'm a QB looking to have a successful career, I like Cincy far more than Miami. So why is the media pretending Cincy is a far worse situation?

Btw, try to watch your mouth in the future. Calling people "bums" and "tool sheds" won't be tolerated.
