Perfect. Exactly. I wish I could love that more than once. Who knows what is really going on? All you can do is hope the bengals are making the right decisions. I choose not to assume that they aren't. I had a bad feeling about Shemar on draft night and I don't like how he's handling things now. He's off to a bad start. Even if the bengals are wrong, it is not going to help to start your NFL career by bashing the team that picked you. The bengals aren't going to blink. And other teams wouldn't either. There are still other draft picks unsigned.

That wasn't predictable at all. Any and every chance to whine about the FO. Don't you get tired of posting the same thing over and over? I think the 4 or 5 of you eeyores actually think that the Browns will read your posts. I am outta here. I will be back for the draft. I like BJ's draft pick posts. Even though people always bitch about the picks. See you next year.

I never said that the media is lying. I am saying that they are not always telling both sides. That's dishonesty by omission. You're on crack if you don't think that the media piles on. There are plenty of teams with far less recent success than the bengals. Name one other team that the media constantly bashes like they do the bengals. Even the turds get more respect than we do. I think there's an agenda and you patronizing me and repeating the same thing over and over again isn't going to convince me otherwise. I never said anything about signing Trey one way or the other. But I don't think that it is a no brainer that they should give him whatever he wants. He's already under contract. There are considerations.

Yeah, it's hard to imagine Burrow going to a Super Bowl. Oh, wait. Fucking eeyore.

The media has flamed a lot of the fire, sure. They love to pile on the bengals. Are you going to tell me with a straight face, that the media has always been fair in their reporting of the bengals? The league and the media have always hated Mike Brown and the bengals and have had an agenda. I'm obviously not saying that the bengals haven't made bad decisions, but the media always reacts by assuming that the bengals did something stupid, then maybe get all the facts later. I don't know who is right in the contract disputes, but you can't count on the media to provide both sides of the story. And a lot of bengals fans just eat up anything negative and never give the team the benefit of the doubt. Seriously, why do you guys keep following a team that you hate? As far as Palmer, we came out on top on that deal. Not sure why everybody refers to that situation as a disaster. Question: As I alluded to earlier, do you really think that the media is always fair and honest in their coverage of the bengals and the league and media has no agenda? And of course, the league and media go hand in hand.

But will they be able to sign him?

When in doubt, the media just blame the bengals.

They still can. There's still camp cuts that they can pick up.

Is Shemar the only NFL draft pick not signed? Why is the media only up the bengals' ass when there are several picks not signed? There is obviously something holding up all of the other signings also.

Hilarious. That will work. Or other people will just buy their seats.

Great points, Go. Trey had those great stats the last 2 seasons, but the defense as a whole sucked ass. Even if Trey plays, if they don't fix/solidify the rest of the DL, it won't make any difference.

He can't beat us in either.

So that means that we should expect Burrow to start slow again also?

That stat doesn't mean anything. This is a new season. Any predictions for this season based on assuming they will start slow are crap.

My prediction isn't based on past seasons. They don't count. Saying they can't possibly be better than 5-4 is silly.
