Anyone remember when the Redskins offered two first round picks for Chad Johnson when he demanded to be traded? Or Carson Palmer being forced into retirement, because of Brown's "principles".
My favorite is when Tony Siragusa visited the Bengals as a free agent. They sent him a coach ticket and Mike Brown was there to pick him up at the airport in his Chrysler Town & Country. Goose passed and signed with the Ravens instead.

It really sucks to be a Lions fan. 55 years since being in the 1957 Championship game. The Jets at 44 years with the chefs at 43 and those Brownies at 40 with the Vikes rounding out the top 5 at 36..
Is there a link to an article (which would be interesting to read), or did you just glean these stats from a source like pro football reference?

The last time the Browns finished in front of the Steelers in the division was 1989.

And Mike Brown wouldn't take the two 1's because he stated that Chad must honor his contract. At least he seemed to learn his lesson when Oakland offered that ridiculous deal to get a washed up Palmer. Unbelievable.
And 'experts' seem to think that the Bengals are ready to do some real damage.
Maybe but I will believe it when I see it.

Andy Dalton has arm strength issues deeper down the field. They get exposed everytime the Bengals reach the playoffs. It's not like his defense didn't do it's job last year. They held down Houston pretty good for the most part. Schaub looked just as bad.

I know, that is why I hate it when people are like, "If Flacco won a Superbowl, then guys like Dalton and Schaub can too." FALSE. Flacco may inconsistent, but he is more physically gifted and talented than those guys IMO.

Huh?!?
The Bengals (2nd) finished ahead of the Steelers (3rd) last year.
The Bengals won the division in 2009.
