He still won a championship there. Burrow will bring a championship back to Ohio.

Why would anyone WANT to play for the Bengals or Browns for that matter? Both ownerships are a joke. Also with the current NFLPA collective bargaining agreement, # 1 draft choices no longer break the bank anymore like they used to do. They don't get those huge signing bonuses, like in the old days. They can thank #1 draft picks Jarmarcus Russell, Ryan Leaf, Tim Couch, and David Carr. Joe Burrow can't right the ship of a dysfunctional franchise. It isn't just about money. Think Dan Marino, Jim Kelly, or Phillip Rivers would give back all their records for a SB ring?

Yeah but, what about all the kids in Athens County waiting for Big Joe to come home and make South Ohio proud?
Or is it all about the money for you?

Get Mike Brown to sell then you can talk about making ALL of Ohio proud. You don't make them proud being stuck on losing teams year after year, wasting your talent for an owner that doesn't care if he fields a winning team or not. He's content to just pocket his share of the TV contract revenue, and whatever the stadium can make on any given Sunday.

Kyler Murray's signing bonus was $23.9 million

Joe needs NFL playing time in a Spread offense. He will get that at Cincy.
He does not need PT in a pro-style O, nor clipboard time backing up an embedded vet - he's been there, done that.

Palmer was very good though.
He also took the Cardinals to the NFC championship, right?

Doesn’t his girlfriend live there? From there?

Kyler Murray deal 4 years $35 Million
Jamarcus Russell deal 6 years $68 Million
This is why the owners wanted a rookie wage scale.

That isn't enough to change Mike Brown from being a shitty owner.
quote:
Here's how bad it is working for Brown: His best and most honorable player, Pro Bowl quarterback Carson Palmer, is vowing to walk away from $46 million rather than work another day in Brown's prison stripes.
"Carson just finally got fed up," says a close friend of Palmer. "He's just sick of the same 5,000 mistakes the franchise repeats every year. He's tired of wallowing in mediocrity. He won't ever talk about it, but that's how he feels. He's a very tolerant guy, but when he gets pushed over the line, he gets mad and doesn't go back. He'd love to play, he's dying to play, but he's never going to play there."
quote:
Brown makes four people do the work of eight. Most teams have four or five scouts; Brown keeps one or two. One time in the 1980s -- before the Internet -- I flew in and asked to see the newspaper clip files on a few players. "We aren't quite caught up on our clip files," the weary PR guy said, "but you could go through those." He was pointing to three 12-foot stacks of unopened Cincinnati Enquirers.
quote:
Mike Brown is the owner. Mike Brown is also the GM and President.
Pete Brown, the Senior VP of Player Personnel, is his brother.
Katie Blackburn, the Executive VP, is his daughter.
Troy Blackburn, the Vice President, is his son-in-law.
quote:
The Bengals franchise has been abysmal the last 20 years (give or take the last two) because Mike Brown has bad judgment and no one with enough power seems to call him on it. Mike Brown has adopted this role very similar to Jerry Jones in Dallas. Brown not only signs the paychecks as owner, he also operates as General Manager and oversees the player personnel decisions. Along with that, he’s also the President, so he has to oversee the day-to-day operations of the franchise.
quote:
When Palmer wasn’t really ready to come back the next season and take the Bengals back to an AFC North title, Mike Brown grew impatient. When Carson Palmer showed his distaste for being a Cincinnati Bengal, Mike Brown took the attitude of “holier-than-thou” and let him walk away. Mike Brown sat back and watched the Cincinnati Bengals lose all-star talent on both sides of the ball, because he was never willing to give the players what they deserve. For the first time in a long time the Bengals were sitting near the top of the competitive AFC North, and Mike Brown threw it all away over pride and frugality.
quote:
Brown refuses to build a practice bubble. You would think that, after all the money he saved by having the county build his stadium, that he could build his own practice bubble.
quote:
The 1999 draft is what. The Bengals had the third overall pick. On the board at this point were Edgerrin James, Brandon Stokley, Torry Holt, and Ricky Williams. How could they screw this up? These were four damn good football players. Who did they choose? Akili Smith.

Didn't realize the Bengals ran the spread dude!

Carson Palmer was never the same after he hurt his knee he had the bengals in the playoffs and going in right direction before he got hurt.

While a lesser competitive athlete maybe content with just making it financially, a player like Burrow though, the competitive fire burns too bright inside to ever be satisfied with just being well off financially.
Of course he would not be content with his career but he will be very content with the money.

Palmer's best season was 2015 with the Cardinals. Palmer and Brady tied for 2nd behind Cam for the NFL MVP.
