SAN FRANCISCO _ One Hall-of-Fame evaluator said Thursday the NFL’s best team isn’t here at this Super Bowl.
ESPN’s Bill Polian said the Bengals roster ‘from top to bottom,” was the NFL’s best this past season.
“It’s sad they didn’t get beyond where they did. They had the best team, I think. When (Andy) Dalton got hurt, that was a terrible blow.”
Polian praised director of player personnel Duke Tobin as well as head coach Marvin Lewis.
“Duke has done a great job scouting. Marvin and the coaches have a done a great job identifying what they want and what they need,” he said.
