  1. They cannot seem to get out of their own way.
  2. That is a smart thinking vet talking...good stuff
  3. 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?

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

    Shocking news....zzzzz
  6. I believe he has missed a lot of games in the last few seasons, so it is a value proposition.
  7. Were the changed promised or was that us just being hopeful?
  8. And he traded players who demanded more money.
  9. What he is really saying is "We have some real dumbass owners so we need more of the total revenue to compensate for that"
  10. 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.
  11. Because Paul Brown always gave fair contracts?
  12. On drfat day, Golden said Knight and Carter are two differnt types of LB's and will be used differently. Lets let the process play out here.
  13. The question really is - do other teams have this language in their contracts? If so, then the Bengals are trying to do what others are doing. If not, then they are just plain dumb. This team has never been a trend setter on any contract clauses, we are usually the last or near last to be pulled into new language.
  14. By that do you mean the rest of the D will be shite? LOL
  15. Tobin seems to be outside the contract talks. Recall he said they would sign their own and be aggressive in FA. Instread they got dragged kicking and screaming to sign the two WR's and FA was a complwtw fail. If Katie is worse than Mikey we are in for a long decade or two.
  16. No surprise, the Bengals front orfice always has to complicate situatuions. They kind of just get in their own way at times.
  17. Is Kirkland not in the mix for RG? And is his nickname Costco?
  18. That is just a list of excuses. This team always looks under-prepared to start every season. Period. Excuses are useless. Good teams dont make excuses.
  19. It does mean something because it is a significant trend. Zac has proven that he does not prepare his team well for the start of the season. Until that changes it is not unrealistic to expect the same. There is a higher probability of a slow start compared to teams who typically have fast starts. They talked about this last season as well but still started slow. It is like expecting Andy Dalton to eventually play well in big games just because they talked about it. Does not mean we have a slow start , it just means the probability is higher than other teams who are typically better prepared to start the year. One could actually say Zac has proven that he can’t prepare a team properly to start the year.
  20. Last time I checked each team has 2 starting CBs ? So likely CTB starts and Turner is the first backup . And Ivey is a nobody right now.
  21. He also lead the league in clapping.
  22. To Me, re-structuring Volstrumm just means they were going to cut him if he was not openb to the re-sign. And they still might.
  23. Montravius Adams? Sounds like a name from the Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter films.
  24. They would do it for team unity and to show other players they recognize value.
