Lippincott will be in next year

Who signs first?
LOL. We lead the league is creating bad luck.
-
Loyalty Above All - Strewert's Agents - a closer look.
I don’t think our team has earned the right to make extra demands for contracts. To me we should do what we did in the past and if we ever had any frigging sustained success then move to more contract demands.

REVOTE! - 2025 Ring Of Honor Nominees - REVOTE!
I dont doubt that each teams ring of honour looks more at overall team contribution versus the hall of fame attributes. Whyche as a coach should be considered for example. Maybe not the longevity but considered. Latham has been all Bengals since day 1 .

Paying top dollar for Pro Bowl guards....how laughable is that..the Chiefs will continue to go nowhere.

Keeping Our Enemies Close: 2025
Change seems to scare them into inaction. The Chase/Higgins contract negotiations seemed to take all of their off-season energy. Sometimes I think the FO just curls up in a ball in the corner when they have to look at doing a large contract.

That was a year or two after they had won the SB? Dumb fans really; they reset quickly

They draft well, manage their cap well and when they lose good players they get comp picks and then draft well..rinse and repeat. Solidly run organization top to bottom.

Tomlin to me is like Marvin Lewis, although Tomlin benefits from a stronger organization. Good coach but not all that innovative and their teams just fade away in playoffs.

Wait. Holding. Teams are supposed to not stop improving? Is this the new NFL? Has the Bengal front office been notified?

A coach who makes players repeat drills if they don't do it right? Is this not a normal coach? Hoard makes it sound like this is new.

Definitely why Troy Blackburn is never allowed to speak.
-
Trey'd Hendrickson? I don't think so.
It does seem like the team wanted to (first see if Knight could replace Pratt and if so then they could cut Pratt and add some value to Trey's offer. I would say the same thing for the OL - probably used the OTA's to see where the two guard spots were looking. Not saying this is in any way smart, but it seems like this is how theyu operate. They can only do one thing at a time.

Trey'd Hendrickson? I don't think so.
Trey should ask if they are going to put the same clause in that Stewart's contract has lol

They cannot seem to get out of their own way.

That is a smart thinking vet talking...good stuff

That is a valid thought.

Something I am not clear on - we know the Bengals have never asked for this language in a rookie contract. However, do OTHER teams use this language? Are the Bengals trying to catch up on language here or or they trying to create new language?

Pratt
Poker hand? Our Front Orfice plays "Go Fish".

Pratt
Shocking news....zzzzz

Keeping Our Enemies Close: 2025
I believe he has missed a lot of games in the last few seasons, so it is a value proposition.
-
Trey'd Hendrickson? I don't think so.
Were the changed promised or was that us just being hopeful?
-
Trey'd Hendrickson? I don't think so.
And he traded players who demanded more money.

What he is really saying is "We have some real dumbass owners so we need more of the total revenue to compensate for that"

Offseason Program/Rookie Minicamp/OTAs/Mandatory Minicamp
This will be interesting given both sides will come across as rich greedy bastards. In a league will a larger and larger revenue pot it is hard to argue that players should get less than 50%. In fact 50% seems just about right in the middle lol. Was it not 52% in the previous contract and the owners had to scramble to pull it back to 50%. Given how high the franchise values are it is tough to argue the owners need a higher cut. They might try and settle on a scaled model, with 50% up to $X Billion total and then 49% for the next $Y Billion after that, etc.
