but away from Bengal Fan Sites, many football fans non Bengal think the worst thing that could have happened to Burrow was Bengals.

On being drafted, I read many saying, " Oh No, not the Bengals, poor Burrow ".  Certainly on getting injured most sports fans and media said, " The Bengals ruined him ". Most sports world consider The Bengals a lost cause and the worst front office in all sports. All they have to do is point to no play-off wins since Paul Brown died going into 1991 season. The Bengals also have more 4 win seasons or less than any NFL team since Paul Brown died. Players and coaches come and go, but Mike Brown and Family are the one constant in losing since Paul Brown died.

The word used by people in sports for Mike Brown Family Bengals is CHEAP.  World media says this, and many ex Bengal players agree that Mike Brown is Cheap.  The saying is, You get what you pay for.  The Bengals have got the longest no play-off win streak in NFL of 30 years.

So there are many in the world sports media and sports fans non Bengals who say Burrow should demand to be traded.  That nothing good will ever come from Burrow on the sorry Bengals, and he should go to a real team.

I have to admit I saw the injury coming.  People kept raving to me about Bengals drafting Burrow, and then how good he looked playing.  All along I said I hope he doesn't get injured, Bengals have No Blocking. They have had No Blocking for years.  Then the sports announcers were saying how Burrow was getting hit more than any quarterback in NFL each week. Some of those unblocked hits and Burrow barely able to get up.  He was taking a beating.  Then the hit where he didn't get up.  Many see Burrow taking the same non stop hard hits going forward as the Bengals remain a lost cause. Many see this a waste of a good player like Burrow.

So it is a fair question. Should Burrow demand to be traded to another team.  Should he refuse to play for the most losing team over the last 30 years. Should he refuse to line up behind no blocking only to get career injured in his first years in NFL.  Many in sports say he should refuse to play for the Bengals. So it is a fair question for our Bengals Site. Should Burrow refuse to play for Bengals ?

Fans seem to take it personally when a player gets fed up with the Bengals management and coaches. Witness Carson Palmer, Corey Dillon, Carl Pickens, Carlos Dunlap and others. Those players wanted to win and saw the organization's lack of making correct moves and expressed their dissatisfaction to the dismay of fans.

If we re-visit Palmer's urgings to Mike Brown to make some moves at a few positions he felt the team was only a few players away. Mike Brown, of course, knows better than anyone else in the universe and had to make sure that Palmer knew that.

Dunlap was saddled with an inept defensive coaching staff who really have no business in the NFL, same as our head coach.

Corey Dillon was the Bengals long star and simply couldn't win alone with QBs like Akili Smith and others (Neal O'Donnell).

I personally applaud these guys for standing up to the idiocy that is Mike Brown and I don't take a personal affront by their actions. They at least had enough self-respect to voice their legitimate concerns.

I also happen to believe it is possible, after a few more years of ineptitude from the front office and whoever is coaching, that Burrow will simply just sign elsewhere when his contract is up. The team can really only hang onto him for 5 years, then one more year after that with a franchise tag that Burrow simply doesn't have to sign.

All I can say really is that I hope the Bengals front office gets its shit together before that time arrives. Will they? I seriously doubt it as they haven't in quite some time.

ADDITIONALLY: Carson Palmer was said to be unable to win in the playoffs, yet went to Arizona and did just that. Dunlap was labeled a cancer and was done only to go to Seattle and be a model citizen who made an impact. Pickens faded away. Corey Dillon went on to win a Super Bowl. All the while Mike Brown continued his suck ass ways and left the city with 30 years of futility.
