Longtime Bengals star signs with AFC juggernaut for epic reunion

The Cincinnati Bengals are licking their wounds after Week 3's 48-10 blowout in Minnesota, and the latest news in NFL free agency only adds insult to injury.

Sure, the Bengals are technically still leading the AFC North, but they're not some Super Bowl contender at the minute. Losing Joe Burrow for at least three months will do that to you.

For those of us Who Dey Heads longing for the better days when Burrow was healthy and leading Cincinnati on two deep playoff runs, Monday's Bengals-related subplot really stings. It's akin to the SpongeBob meme where Squidward longingly watches through the blinds while SpongeBob and Patrick run together in jubilation outside.
