By letting their three most productive defensive players go in free agency, Cincinnati completed the tri-fecta of boneheaded offseason moves.
Justin Smith, Landon Johnson and Madieu Williams are all excited to have found new homes … and fat contracts.
The Bengals, owners of the statistical worst defense over the past 3 years decided the recipe to improve its defense was to let its 3 most productive players go.
Following that strategy, the offense could get a boost by dumping Carson Palmer and TJ Houshmandzadeh, but, alas, they’re still under contract.
Oh well, there’s always next off-season.
$49 mil is waaaaaaay too much for 2 sacks
