They were key parts of the most consistent winning team in Bengal history and now they are considered lazy sandbaggers who are holding back "Taylor's guys".
You should be embarrassed and wear a Drama Queen Tiara (like Piggy?) for how many times you try to attack and manipulate what someone says.
I did NOT say they don't want to win. And, BTW, it was cute how you left off Ross and Dunlap, but I digress. They are not helping the team win. AJ has been an absolute liability in certain games and only played like a contributing player in two of them. Geno's stat line is filled up with....nothing.
The sad fact is they are getting no production and in AJ's case, he gets zero separation. There is some company that actually tracks that stat and I don't have it but he was near the bottom of the NFL WRs.
AJ did hold back snaps for Higgins early on. As did Ross. That changed and look at Higgins. What Dunlap did was abhorrent. He should be ashamed. But you defend them based on their past. Well, a lot of good that does for a team with Burrow on a rookie contract.
I was giving some credit to the coaching staff for being as close as they are to being 5-4, since they got next to no production from those four players that were so relied (AND PAID) upon. You take that as a slight. Get over yourself. Have a box of tissues to dry your eyes for these guys that were once great and now offer next to nothing.
And as far as most consistently winning teams? How did those guys play in the playoffs? Did they win any of those games? You just polish that tiara and give them a participation ribbon.
