Interesting to see it broken down this way, thanks. That said, how on earth can we be 9th in spending on Offense, and 2nd on Defense?! What the hell is everyone else spending their money on, Special Teams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap spaced used in a single season is not going to give that accurate of picture of how a team is allocating their resources. Something like a rolling three year cash spend would be a better metric.

Big Blitz Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) Last season’s near skeleton crew defense showed this is the wrong approach to cap allocation. No White essentially. No Hyde. Miller missed 8 games including playoffs. Poyer was hurt and didn’t practice much. The whole D line missed time or played with injuries (Groot, Oliver). Still 13-3. Just feels like you have to expect to give up points in 2023 NFL. Hope to hold in the RZ or create enough pressure the O makes more mistakes then you. When defenses (powerhouses like Minnesota lol) did that to our offense we lost. Detroit hung around. The Bengals D finds a way to do that seemingly as good as anyone. Speaking of them, with the money we spend, why “aren’t we the Ravens???” Edited July 17, 2023 by Big Blitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
