The Cincinnati Bengals might be falling back into quiet offseason mode now after a fun trip to free agency and the draft itself.
Just don’t tell the players.
Wideouts Tyler Boyd and John Ross each had some interesting thoughts on social media recently pertaining to the Cleveland Browns — which naturally has stirred up plenty of debate.
Boyd started things off by laughing off a duo comparison from NFL Network, suggesting the Joe Burrow-A.J. Green tandem is better than Baker Mayfield-Odell Beckham.
Ross wasn’t too far behind in suggesting Joe Mixon is better than both Browns running backs Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt.
The reality is a little more muddied. Burrow is a rookie and Green has been hurt. Mixon is easily a top-10 back, though. From a Browns’ perspective, the last few years have been a big disappointment.
The good news? These guys won’t have to wait long to put the proclamations to the test. The Battle of Ohio starts in Week 2 on Thursday Night Football and picks up again in Week 7, settling things for the 2020 season before the calendar even turns to November.
