Anyone who doesn't think this is a good move is either dead set on hating the Bengals or just doesn't know football.

TO will want his catches to get the kick in on the incentives, he says " I love me some me!".

 

Has he mis-managed his money that bad?

I like the move, but I hate the thought of Bryant possibly not being healthy.

If Carson endorsed it I am fine with it. By drafting Gresham the Bengals know it's a passing league now.

It's going to be entertaining to say the least. Too bad we couldn't have Hard Knocks follow the team this year, the personalities they have added, just wow. Some good stuff.

Don't hate the Bengals but I know a cancer when I see one for 10 years. Wide receiver is the most overrated position in football.

 

You'll be signing a different tone when Owens is doing setups in his driveway and fakes trying to kill himself. 36 years old, declining skills and a huge ego. Problems in the making.

 

I think if you like this deal you either are blinded by love for the Bengals or don't understand that their are few productive 36 year olds in the NFL.

Its a great move now Palmer has no reason to stand in the pocket and blame that there was no recievers open he needs to really step up this year or Palmer is never going to get us there!

Any word on Miles Simpson petitioning the NFL to skip college and join the Bengals for this season??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah that's when they cut him. Mike didn't give him a 10 million dollar signing bonus. Two mill to Mike Brown is peanuts.

Last year it was said that the Bengals did not have a downfield threat without Chris Henry. If Bryant ends up on the PUP list, is TO supposed to be the downfield threat that was missing last year?

I think you mean sit-ups.

The Bengals went five games in a row last year without scoring an offensive TD (believe I heard that on the radio today). I believe that adding TO to this roster helps to ensure that definitely doesn't happen again.

 

I'm happy with this move. If Gresham and Shipley really start to develop...this could be a fun team to watch, and a tough team week after week.

The thing that TO has done well during his career is gaining YAC. When comparing TO and Chad, TO's YAC is over five yards for his career while Chad is around 3 YAC. Can TO stretch the field, I say yes, is he a burner like Henry, no. The important thing is that teams won't be able to bracket Chad each and every play, knowing that the other Wrs can be manned up with little to no threat at consistently breaking their defense. Even at 36 TO is still talented enough that if you leave him manned up he can do some damage.

One thing that has benefited T.O. in his career is his size and strength. Even thought he is getting older he is still going to have that on most CB who are on him.
