Can you imagine if Allen held out like Lamar Jackson? 

 

Or cried to the media like Joe Burrow? 

 

Or refused to play where they were drafted like Eli Manning? 

 

Or had a toxic family like Patrick Mahomes? 

 

We are extremely blessed. I grew up in WNY and it’s not an easy place to be especially when you’re from beautiful northern Californian wine country. Not hating, this is just the truth. 

 

Could we at least just be blessed with a Lombardi?

Yes. We will, my son. This is our year.

I'm sure he is frustrated. He hasn't played much this year, but he's been awesome the last two years and has no playoffs to show for it. He gets hurt when they are 2-0 and come back and they are 3-8. His team could only win one game without him? I'd be pissed too. Its like going away for a week from work and the rest of the team hasn't done any of the work and the report is due tomorrow. Burrow is busting his ass to get back and its already too late. Meanwhile, the division sucks, and if they could do a little bit, they'd be in the playoffs

 

 

The Bengals only path to victory with that roster is with a top 5 QB. It shouldn’t be a shock to anyone, least of all Burrow, that they only won 1 game without him. Their predominant cap investment relies on QB performance first and foremost.

And then somehow magically with Testaverde still as his QB the very next year he turned the #1 defense into the #20 defense and posted a 5-11 record.  Oh yeah, then he got fired.

 

and then….?

That is true. Even still, 2-6 would have been enough for the to seriously challenge for the division

Schefter is getting to be too much a hot takes run his mouth tool.  I don't care about his take on this. 

 

I guess he has to do that with the steven smith and pat mcafferys of the world. 

 

Sad.

That's cool for Burrow.  If I am the Bengals I am asking the team who wants him to eat his full contract and then give me 4 1st round picks and players.

Drafted two years later and he is the same age as Josh?
