We should ALL root for Joe Tiger King Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals

I am rooting for this exciting team this weekend, they remind me SO MUCH of the 2003 Panthers. Exciting finishes, nobody taking them seriously, came out of nowhere and caught lightning in a bottle. 

 

Rooting for the Bengals solidifies my beliefs that one player CAN CHANGE the fortune of a Franchise. 

 

prior to his arrival, the Bengals had songs like this and epitomized being a league punching bag for nearly decades

They drafted Burrow, got Chase and now look at them

 

I have HOPE that this team can compete much quicker than we realize, it will take new coaching that use creativity in offense and it will take the Panthers pretty much luck to draft an heir apparent QB that can propel this franchise forward

There’s always HOPE if you can draft a franchise guy, but the problem is…. drafting that franchise guy. I mean just look at the Bengals. It took them 30 years to get that franchise guy. Look at the Browns, Dolphins, Jets, Bears, Redskins, etc. They haven’t been relevant for years because their franchises haven’t picked the QB. Here’s to hoping somehow our franchise gets it right soon. We need our next Cam!

Burrow is a stud but ultimately I think that OL will be their undoing. Their OL is low key every bit as bad as ours. They just have Joe Burrow and NFL caliber coaching.

Which is easier to find in FA or the draft, if your team spends the resources:

A. A competent Offensive line

B. A franchise QB

If you never try to draft your next franchise QB, then you probably will never have one.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
    • If BY continues to develop.  XL learns how to catch with his speed. Tet lives up to his hype... THEN Brooks comes back.. dammmmmmmmmmmmmm
