You are being a homer here. It's far more that Chase.

It's their mistreatment of Higgins and Hendrickson. They were staight up disrespect to Higgins.

Add that to years of letting top talent walk because you cant pay them aint helping.

What the fuck are you even talking about?

They tagged Higgins. How is that disrespectful? It's not an unheard of thing. He got his money. With Chase coming up on an expected long-term deal it was the smart move for the organization.

Hendrickson signed a 1 year extension. He wanted something longer - which I get. But you can't just fucking pay everyone everything they want all the time every season.

Not sure who you are talking about letting walk because they didn't want to pay them.
The only one I can think of was Whitworth. I was pissed about that one. Dude was a stud and played for like 10 additional years.
I was fine letting Mixon go. RBs have a short shelf life.

I fucking hate the Browns ownership so it feels weird defending their decisions - but your "disrespectful" comment is a bit weird.

What the Bengals need to do is to sell off part ownership to other people.

They are the mom&pop shop of the NFL. They just don't have to capital to compete with the other teams around the NFL.

They have the smallest FO and Scouting department in the NFL. They can't pay their talent and thats why they let players walk.

I think it was 2 years ago they were literally right at the salary cap.

I do agree with the front office and scouting departments. Mike Brown is a cheap ass. I can't wait for him to relinquish all control. By all accounts, the people waiting to take over are much, much better.

Jameis is such a wildcard it's really hard to predict anything.
He can play like the best QB in the league one week, then the next week it's like he never picked up a football before.

So true

He might be just trying to survive back there with crowd noise and Denver blitzing with great man coverage in back, gonna have to just sling it and chuck it up(which he is pretty good at).

Bo Nix is going against The Beast Mylers Garrett which is sketchy, hoping the broncos scheme the offense to success and keep MG to a minimum.

Got fucked on that one, steeler clearly moves first and had broken the LOS
Where is the replay system not stepping in, saw them step in real quick in all types of games this year

I don't think that one is reviewable.
Although I think ALL plays should be reviewable.

Shit call. And it was a turning point in the game for sure. Called it out on here when it happened.

Doesn't matter. Didn't play well enough to win. Worst defense I've ever seen.

Pre snap judgment calls like that should absolutely be looked at to see who jumped first, it literally stops the clock and only takes one or two looks from the LOS camera to make the call stand or correct it. NFL not reviewing that on their own is a Joke, nothing wrong with quality control in real time when the clock stops and replays are already running anyways. Nobody runs hurry up off a false start penalty so time is not an excuse.

Romo: That should have been intercepted.
Every casual football fan watching: It was 4th down you fucking dipshit.

Hmm...

Watching that in slow mo, and pausing continuously, it sort of looks like the Bengals lineman is reacting to the defender before the defender actually enters the neutral zone.

He has to enter the neutral zone before the defense is called for the penalty right?

I'm talking about not returning his calls. That or his agents. He wanted to negotiate trade talks but they refused to asnwer his calls. Instead they had no communications with him and them Tagged him knowing that's not what he wanted.

You don't just ghost a top player like that. For example people gave Jimmy G shit for not returning his coaches and teammates calls during the off season (and rightfully so).
