I know I am little bit late to this party but I did want to chime in as I wanted to post this a couple of days back. The title of this blog really says it all. I never in a million years that I would say that about either of the organizations, but to say it about both in the same sentence. It is just preposterous!
I owe an apology to Mike Brown as he worked this one out perfectly as the Bengals could get 2 first round draft picks, which is more than what he would have got had he tried in the offseason. Good for him. I don't think they will make the playoffs this year, but things are looking up as he has a good rookie connection going for years to come. Not sold on Andy Dalton getting them a ring, but I think Cincinnati will be happy to be a relevant team for years to come, which is a big plus for them.
The Raiders did what they had to do here as they have not been in contention since their Super Bowl appearance in the 2002 season. I like what they did regardless of how Carson Palmer does. He might do alright or he might do miserably, but I agree that the Raiders had to pull the trigger on Palmer. They could not rely on Kyle Boller to get them into the playoffs. Good luck to both, but I would put my money on the Raiders making a wild card before the Bengals.
