Dude signed a contract before LAST season and has played in a grand total of 2 games. Now, maybe he's legitimately been seriously injured all this time, but it's not that much of a stretch to call a guy a bum who has played in only 2 games in 2 seasons.

I don't see how injuries make a player a "bum" Was Andrew Luck a "bum"? Is Klay Thompson a "bum"? How about Icky Woods and Greg Cook? Two of the biggest bums in Bengal history, right?

I just have a couple plays that had stuck out to me from the past were afterwards I was like the coverage couldn't have been better he just needed to turn and get his hands up. But I did not look up stats so I'll just say I was wrong.

I do think this seems to happen with Lou. Against the Jets last week had the Hilton lowering the helmet call. They took him out and after Awuzie struggled to tackle Ty Johnson they showed the sideline and Hilton looked over at Lou and just the expression on Hiltons face was that he should've been in there. Now I'm grasping at straws here but Hilton's snaps were way down this last week so I wonder if something was said or maybe just that penalty in general they lowered his snaps.

Like I said, do you think Greg Cook and Icky Woods were bums?

It's that he signed with the team but hasn't played in almost a season and a half. Like I said, he could legitimately be injured but the optics of it lend itself to him maybe being a "bum". I don't think he's necessarily a bum, but I don't like the fact that we're paying him all this money to have him sit on the bench taking up a roster spot.

Considering Lou said there was nothing wrong with that tackle, I'd say you are grasping at straws.

I was excited just now seeing this thread had picked up traction only to find out it’s turned into a Waynes bashing session. Warranted by the way. When creating this thread, I was under the assumption he wasn’t coming back… so it’s Apple vs Phillips!
