Assuming he's been playing 'decent ball' the last half of the season, just how terrible was he the first half lol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact he’s starting over a healthy 15M + player in Trae Waynes says a lot. It wouldn’t surprise me to see him think he’s earned a huge payday, then be shocked when he doesn’t have a lot of teams lined up to pay him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to come back on the cheap, ok, but other wise, that'll be a no from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearerofnews Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Bengals are on a ride. All credit should go to that Bengals defense. That defense feels like 07 Giants lite. Hold Mahomes at KC to 59 yds 0 tds and 2 ints in 4th and OT. I know Burrow will get all the credit, he shouldn't at all. That defense this post season had Carr, Tannehill and Mahomes last passes all be interceptions. That's tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's tough. everyone seems to be on Burrow and sleeping on the defense. probably because they have very few stars (Bates and Hendrickson probably being the only true stars atm). but they're really tough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Why is it that the Bengals players with no business talking **** on Twitter are the ONLY ones talking **** on Twitter? I don't see Jamar Chase saying a dang thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnifico Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 15 hours ago, SmittyBacall said: Yeah, his first contract probably not. But once he secures the bag I can see it happening. I definitely don’t see him holding out or causing issue. Seems to humble and dedicated to winning for that. I'm happy for you @SmittyBacall but every fan thinks this, the mantra of most of these guys is "Secure the Bag", as often as possible. Now if Joey B gets himself a Supermodel wife who brings in $15M+ per annum then yeh it might happen. Thank god Burrow is so likeable because Eli Applie is insufferable.
