When you get fleeced by Jerry Jones of all people, you might be the Cincinnati Bengals.
Only in Cincinnati does it feel like something like this could happen. Jones is desperate for the Dallas Cowboys to be relevant. They haven't made it past the NFC Divisional Round since the 1995 season, and just got embarrassed on Monday night against the last-place Cardinals.
No matter. Jerry still believes in his 'Boys, and isn't giving up on this season. Meanwhile, given who the Bengals traded to Dallas and what they got back, they might as well be waving a giant white flag.
