But maybe that's because I'm a whiner myself
Look, I want Trey on the team too. He used to be one of my favorite players. I just do not like his immaturity and whining. And I put most of that on his agent. I swear I do not understand why he and Stewart use the off-brand agents that just screw them over. He saw what happened to Tee when Tee changed agents. Take a clue dude.

I'm typically in the camp of "you don't deserve good money and guarantees until you prove something at the NFL level."
So I actually completely side with the Bengals in the Stewart scenario.
However, Hendrickson has proven it in his time with the Bengals and is playing at an elite level still.
I don't blame him for wanting top dollar, and I'm assuming he's doing/saying what he's saying because he hopes it will have some influence on the decision-making for the Bengals FO to help push them to compromise some and get the offer to $35+ mill APY and multiple years guaranteed, which he deserves.
Gone are the days of "shut your mouth and play."
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.

When I sit and think about it, it's not really the wanting more money that irritates me, it's that he takes his gripes public. Again, as much as I hate to say anything nice about Twatt, but we didn't hear a peep from him while he was waiting
-Lucas Patrick will practice at center as well as guard
-first starting OL Brown, Fairchild, Karras, Ford, Mims
-first starting DL without Trey and Shemar..Murphy, Slayton, Hill, Ossai
-Ridder wearing #4 since someone else already claimed his favored #9
-described by one media member as the most physical non-padded practice he's ever seen from the Bengals
-defense showed some chops with a good blitz from Stone, a PBU from CTB, and PBU by Burks
-media is happy the new press room is open complete with new cushy chairs. For the fans their is now a mic that picks up the questions during press conferences. Mic Cart is officially out of a job...next step for him ROH?
Life has no limitations except the ones you make-Paul Brown

That makes sense.
Quote:Pelfrey is the only player to kick two field goals (including a career-best 54-yarder as time expired) within six seconds to win a game - 1994 Week 16, Philadelphia Eagles at Cincinnati Bengals.

It looks like Zac has taken the gloves off and brought physicality back to week 1 of TC. I hope it pays off week 1.
Always risk of energy, but always risk of injuries including non contact. It is the nature of the sport.
Interesting Ford at RG versus Patrickk
I hated watching our press conferences and could not hear the questions. Glad they finally addressed a pretty simple fix.
Please use 2025 free agency to fix the trenches, not the draft!!!!!!!!

At least it isn't anything too outlandishly crazy like the NFL sack leader being in a different state or a 1st round pick potentially not suiting up...

Could you post more because I have only see you attack our FO and our players who you feel are not good enough thousand of times this summer and in prior years?
The forum is up in the air on your stances.

Take this line all day from our SB title run.. plus having a better more experienced skilled players on offense , we are much better position than that offense
