Sign Rudi, Sign!

Bengals placed the franchise tag on Rudi. This after a month ago Rudi's agent threatened to sit out the year if the Bengals franchised him. This is not likely to happen, an obvious bluff, but we'll have to wait and see. Marvin Lewis put it well, "This is the most responsible move we can make in pursuit of our goal to give our fans a playoff season and a run for the Super Bowl in 2005."

That's what it's all about. It's not about Rudi, it's about the team. So sign the contract Rudi, and let's get to the playoffs next year! He'll be earning in excess of 6 million, not too bad.

Comments:
Good lord, just what the Bengals didn't need to be doing, paying him $6M. They should have inked him to a long term deal last year when his stock wasn't quite so hi.
