Running Backs

1 September 2008

Is it just me or does it look like at the end of this year the bengals will have a top 5 draft pick?  First we bring Chris Henry back after we cut him to "teach him a lesson."  Then we decided to cut arguably one of the best tackles in bengals history (W. Anderson), a probowl running back (R. Johnson), and a pro bowl defensive back (D. O'neal).  While i understand how Rudi was losing the starting running back race to Chris Perry, I can't believe that we didn't at least try to trade him for a solid 3rd receiver until Henry is healthy.  The Bears are dying for a running back of Johnsons  caliber, yet they don;t have any receivers worth taking so I understand why nothing came of that.  Yet Deltha O'neal was picked up by the Patriots as soon as it was possible to have a contract finalized...I hate to say it but they seem to have the "winning solution" down, so i think they know something more then we do.  Anderson should have been kept out of respect, but mainly for the reason that our offensive line let Palmer get slaughtered during the preseason and we need anyone who could help.  Thus I conclude that we are headed no where this season.  while I am a die hard fan and I'm sue it won;t come across this way, I can't get over the evidence that we are headed down the gutter.
