March 15, 201214 yr The Bengals will screw around and let somebody else sign him you can almost bet on that. Perhaps send him a coach airline ticket for the trip in (like they did Siragusa), brag on their new locker room towels (like they did when Tekeo was at the end of his contract) or let him meet Mikey or Katie. You're a blockhead Mikey Brown. We're doomed.
March 15, 201214 yr Mike Brown has been noticeably less idiotic the past year, IMO. Here's hoping he'll continue that pattern and make one of the best FA signings in Bengal history. I think he'll get it done.
March 15, 201214 yr That's good news to hear; it would be a hell of a lot better if they sign him. I would love to see Michael Bush as a Bengal.
March 15, 201214 yr I just hope that Mikey doesn't think he can low-ball an offer to him because a.) we're so close to your home, and b.) your former head coach (Hue Jackson) is now on our staff.
March 15, 201214 yr I'm not as confident as others that Mike Bush will be the answer in Cincinnati, but I'd like to see him in the orange & black.
March 15, 201214 yr While it would be nice to see a player from Louisville playing for the Bengals he might be better as a complimentary back. As his workload has increased his yards per carry has went down. It went from 4.8 in 2009 to 4.1 and finally to 3.8 last season when he had a career high in carries.

That's probably the case with most backs, but I've also read where Gruden is planning on implementing a 2-back system with whomever they bring in (FA or through the draft) and Scott. If that's true, I wouldn't think workload would be an issue. :idunno:

Very true, but I also feel like he has a better offense to work around him here with guys like Dalton and Green.
March 15, 201214 yr Do you think Carson Palmer has had any influence on Bush signing with Cincy? Im sure Bush has asked him how things operate her before he comes to visit.
March 15, 201214 yr Author ^ I kind of doubt it. I would guess he wants to get paid and be a starter. That will be the top 2 things on his list.

Do you talk to friends, neighbors and co-workers to get referalls? You can bet Bush will talk to Carson to see how it was being in the Bengals locker room and I'm betting that Mikey Brown doesn't get high marks from Carson's perspective.

Mario Williams is about the sign with Buffalo. That says all you need to know. It's all about the MONEY!!! He might have asked but it's not going to matter most likely.

I'd think he'd put more stock in what someone he's been around awhile, like Hue Jackson, has to say than a hack like Carson.
