I don't think they will pay Tee. I think they will pay Joe but a week before the start of his 4th season they haven't. And that in itself is an example of what I mean. Look at the other guys in that top tier... they were all paid by now. But the Bengals gonna Bengal. And Brown isn't just frugal.... by NFL owner standards he is poor. 

 

The thing I can't see them doing with Burrow is converting salary to bonus year after year to create cap space. And that is what you have to do to remain long term competitive. Unless of course Joe is really gonna sign for 50% of market rate.

He isn't gonna pay anyone but Joe and they are gonna go to war over it lol

 

Not gonna be pretty

Wow, 6 pages on Cody Ford.

 

Some Bills fans just can't let anything go.

It's devolved into a thread about the Bengals. Hardly anything about Ford past page 1.

They have had a nice little run. But remember Mike Brown… that is all 🧐

TJ Houshmandzadeh will talk about how players had to bring their own Gatorade to practice. After Burrow gets paid, and all his guaranteed money is put into escrow, I don’t see them breaking the bank to pay for the surrounding players and putting huge chunks of cash into escrow. Like the Raiders being crippled at one point, I’m not sure if they CAN put the cash up. It’s certainly not their style historically. 

 

FWIW, they do finally have an indoor practice facility as of this spring. This could be a new mindset, or it could be that they were such a joke something had to be done. I went to college in Cincinnati, and it can be every bit as cold as Buffalo.

That indoor facility is a bubble over their outside field.

Super fancy! Like football and camping had a baby? 

 

I admire the Bengals team today, and I’m quite confident they are not a budding dynasty.
