This message is for the 85 H8rs! Hear me out before ya blast this kid.

I used to see him as a typical me-first WR instead of a team guy. His antics during celebrations was something I enjoyed but hated to see his team penalized for them.

I have see him race horses and steve smith during a pre pro bowl activities.

I have seen his career in Cinci crash hard. Watched Housh get TD's only because Chad had double coverage.

My feelings for him started to change last year. He really wanted out of Cinci. A wish not granted.

Same thing this year. Have you seen his interviews? The man looks lilke he is just about to cry. A caged bird.

I see him as a very passionate, very skilled WR who for whatever reason the coach is trying to ruin him.

No, I wouldn't have wanted to see him as a Panther 2 years ago. Hellz no. Now? If the chemistry worked I think he would thrive opposite Steve. Opponents wouldn't know wtf to do. If he can just keep his gold grill mouth shut I think he would be an excellent compliment.

Yes, I would like to have him opposite Steve now. Not so much a few years back. I do feel bad for him too, hes a really good player stuck on a team that doesn't play very well that holds him back from becoming the player he thought he would become. I think these past few years of being on a bad team would actually help him get along with new teammates, coming from such a humbling experience is sure to help him shut up and play ball cooperatively.

Why is everyone worried about chemistry? Didn't Steve Smith and Chad Johnson play on the same team in college.... They even said there was another guy on their team that was better than both of them.. I wonder what happened to him

I did not know this....

God damnit Hurney, call the Bengals and see whats up.

Are you guys serious? Please! The last thing we need is a player whose very presence equals controversy. This guy has a worse attitude than worse than TO ever pretended to have. Great skills, yes, but no thanks. He's a legend in his own mind...only in his own mind....PASS!

Lol

No attitude worse than T.O's lol

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
