@AdamSchefter: Bengals QB Andy Dalton reached agreement on a 6-year, $115 million contract, per two sources.

Commence meltdown... :lol2:

Let the complaining begin:

The Bengals just gave $115 million to a QB with one touchdown and six interceptions in three career playoff games.

[HammerTime]

Doesn't matter until we see the guaranteed money.

Agreed about guaranteed money...but that is a hefty contact.

Also, will be interesting to see if it has something similar to the Kaepernick deal with the opt out clauses.

:popcorn:

 

Awaiting the financials... 6 years thoughts?

[D-Rob]

I'll wait to judge until I see how it is structured but at first look, this looks like a bad idea.

[Hellbird]

And this my friends is why the Cincinnati Bengals will always be the Cincinnati Bengals and never win anything under Mike Brown.

 

Mike Brown and the Bengals sign a QB who has these astounding post season numbers to a contract that avg's out to be $19 million a year.

 

Let's take a look at these great post season numbers by unfortunately the QB who will be on this team for another half dozen years at least.

 

Compl % 56%

TD's 1

INT's 6

QBR 56

 

Win/Loss 0/3

 

So you can be horrible and make close to $20 mill a year, boy can anyone convince me that professional athletes aren't grossly overpaid?

 

Unfortunately the only thing left to do is hope that I am wrong and they prove me wrong by winning a Super Bowl in the next 6 years with Dalton at the helm.

 

So the Bengals have 2 more deserving players who should be signed first...AJ Green and Burficit, yet they throw $119 million at Opie...makes perfect sense. Lets tie up the worst of the group up to a long term deal before we tie up the players we actually need to stay here.

With each new topic made about this subject = the amount of times I've thrown up on myself.

It would make more sense to dump $100 million into the Ohio River.

It would make more sense to dump $100 million into the Ohio River.

 

I am assuming you think the 9ers deal with Kaep was burning 100 million as well...
