Inigo Montoya Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 I read that USA Today article yesterday and it fits the pattern we've seen all along. The national media is pushing this narrative. They want Burrow to pull a power move so they have a bigger story to write about. They want someone to challenge the NFL order and stick it to one of the worst owners in professional sports. It is 100% their agenda and they don't care how it affects Burrow or his reputation.

The reality is everyone in the national media has a favorite team not named the Bengals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, if you're Dan Patrick you could be one of those former Bengals fans so disgusted with the Brown family that you make every effort to stick it to them. Chris Collinsworth is the president of that club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An excellent statement by Jordan. Regardless of it being about Joe it gives me a new respect for the guy, he said exactly what any rational person should say in that situation.

HavePityPlease Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 McShay saying he'd take Tua over Joe if they both would be "guaranteed healthy for the next 10 years". I'd respect his opinion more if he put up a trait of Tua's that puts him over the top that... isn't precisely the thing that Joe did better than anyone ever in history this past season (command the offense): http://www.espn.com/video/clip/clip?id=28792841 With that said, time will tell. I do expect Tua to be a good NFL QB, and I'm sure McShay thinks with the health question that you can't take him #1 anyway. Just more chum for the media to throw out there.

If it weren't for health Greg Cook could have been a hall of fame QB. You aren't any good if you aren't in the lineup for whatever reason. See John Ross.

Sometimes guys who didn't have what it takes, or didn't do what it takes can make the best coaches because they know what needs to be done, even if they couldn't do it.

|Numbers| Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 "Carson and I are totally different...he has nothing to do w my QB training." Says Burrow feels "he can win anywhere."

I've watched the interview 3 times. Same feeling each time. Especially when asked directly about Carson. I think you are right that Carson probably doesn't work with college QBs. However, there's a feeling that Jordan has had a Carson-like conversation with Joe although he states, "Carson and I are totally different..."

I took it more as a "I don't want to talk about Carson" thing. Kind of a Jan Brady moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snarkster Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Just saw an interview with LSU safety Grant Gilpit. They asked him about having Burrow as a teammate. Talked about being around him and how tough he was to practice against every day. The then said the one thing about all others about Jeaux was, "he brought us a swagger that we hadn't had in some time." Kinda caught my attention because I've always thought LSU was one of the swaggiest programs around (maybe more swag than production some seasons).
