Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2992892, member: 2221"] First, I have never hidden my dislike for Bennett's football tactics, nor for what he did to Griffin. Whether I grit my teeth or not, fact is I did and do credit Bennett when he's owed, which actually proves I try to avoid confirmation bias. You on the other hand, fail to criticise him for... well, anything at all. It's always someone or something else's fault. Second, you have zero evidence the negotiations happened without Bennett's knowledge, and let's make this perfectly clear... the Broncos were completely entitled to want to move him on! Whether they are right about it, only the future holds. This doesn't mean that what they did wasn't above board, nor that they didn't attempt to negotiate with Bennett in good faith. There is ZERO evidence this did not happen, and plenty that it did. Third, my opinion is that there were definitely scenarios where Bennett would be the coach in 2019, albeit not likely. Seibold and Souffs wanting to complete the contract before moving on, instead of agreeing to an early trade, is just one of them. I also believe everyone was confident the swap was going to happen, and negotiations to make it happen definitely occurred with WB's knowledge, until Bennett torpedo'ed it all with his rogue presser. If you want to believe that Bennett wasn't in the loop of the impending trade, and most likely had agreed to terms (at least verbally), when everyone else was ready for it, I've got a bridge to sell you. What I don't have an opinion on, are the reasons why Bennett appears to have lied to everyone. I can't read the man's mind, so whether it's money, loyalty to players, ego, or a combination of all of the above (most likely), is something we probably will never know, but I sure would like to see the matter go to court to clarify it.
