Gonna need more than Yahoo Sports to believe it, at least

Yeah, maybe. Wish I could trust that'll continue once they pick up his option year.

Murphy showed me something. He didn’t always get home but he busted his ass every play once he got the opportunity. With that kind of athleticism it’s just a matter of time before he starts hitting the mark if he keeps hustling, which I see no reason why he wouldn’t.

Heh. We get extra ketchup with that at least? Should probably just admit it and tag Trey. Missed half the season and still tied for 3rd in sacks but yeh he's washed, definitely. Murphy & Ossai are the future. Maybe not a good one, but whatever. Trey is a big jerk for asking to be paid like a top DE. Never mind that the rest of our DL combined couldn't carry his jock. Fuck that guy because Duke fuckin' Tobin says so! 🤡

It would be more like a 7th rounder

https://gofund.me/1e18268fa Look, I love Jay Morrison, Jay is a voice for Bengals coverage that i have admired for an incredibly long time. Jay lost his wife a few weeks ago, a routine medical procedure turned for the worst ( which is how i lost both of my parents so its hitting home for me a little extra). Jay has stepped away from the sport for a while, but i fdound today there is a gofundme for supporting her celebration of life and all those things associated. "On December 22, 2025, Nicki Morrison passed away with a final act of donating her organs, leaving this world as a hero. Since Nicki's husband, Jay, shared the news publicly, dozens of his listeners, readers, followers and friends have reached out to ask what they can do to support him. This fund can hopefully serve as a small way for the community to show their love and support for Jay and his children as they plan Nicki's celebration of life, which in Jay's words will be "a party worthy enough of the most beautiful, caring, bad-ass rocker chick" he shared a life with for 37 years." If be stoked if those of you who donate here, skipped donating here forever and donate a nice chunk to Jay for this cause. Jay is a wonderful person, a cincinnati legend and if you followed Jay at all you know he loved his wife more than anything. I BEG of you to go support. https://gofund.me/1e18268fa I tossed $100 so far. I will toss af ew hundred more in a few days once im back from traveling.

Far fetched?? https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/raiders-predicted-trade-2-time-162215342.html

Imagine a Bengals fan taking the side of the FO in any player dispute. Sure thing - Logan Wilson is an asshole but Mixon was out there mag-dumping a motherfuckin' Draco at some neighbor's kid in his suburban backyard & that's cool because he "smiles every day". 🤣 ..and people buy into it. Wild.

For this team, in their circumstances, I don't get taking the high-risk options in general. A pick like Stewart or Burton or All is the sound of their SB window slowly closing. They need immediate help & don't want to admit it. The "shows improvement" bullshit is the sound of hammers nailing it shut. Solid B-tier talent right now is better than a chance at A+ in some imagined future. If they'd been in the playoffs the last couple of years with no glaring weaknesses - in that case sure, roll the dice.

Nailed it. The FO doesn’t have to manufacture poor-mouthing…the couch potato “media” and blog sites will do that for them. Everyone is shit…until they are not. Everyone is a prick…unless they make sub-seven figures. Everyone is replaceable…until the 6th rounder has to do the replacing.

"Rookie pool"

Checking the math here, hasn't he "taken them" 😅 to the playoffs exactly twice? And been sub-.500 since? Sure, riding Joe & JaMarr to a SB loss probably counts for something but the rest of that is, at best, exaggerating. He's a discount coach giving them discount results. I accept that. FWIW I'm not even particularly bent that he wasn't fired. Given the likely options for replacing him, & also accepting the problems it's his job to take the fall for are mostly organizational. He's basically an OC that does press conferences, & he's been decent enough at both those things. It might be good if he got a little more involved on the defensive side but I guess I can't fault him for knowing his limitations. Would love to know his level of input on their draft board. He sure seemed giddy over Burton. Can miss me with the usual everyone's an idiot wArGLbaRGl!!1, though. Skipped.

No way the priority is a late 3rd comp pick, right? They're not that backwards.. Are they? Just like Risner's not really going to get anything like 15 per.. What are these numbers honestly like let's imagine the worst case scenario & throw up our hands? The annual offseason poor-mouthing has begun! How will poor Troywick afford their Easter ham, oh ruin!

EB: he got promoted based on andy reids offense, and andy reids play calling.. then got fired every single year since then.. and lands back at the same spot... fairly telling, that he had to take a demotion while waiting for the spot to free up again. Taylor took the bengals to a superbowl and AFCC he would ahve HC job offers... maybe trash teams.. but taking the cincinnati bengals to the superbowl for the first time in like 30 years is a resume point that carries you some job offers. and he would be interviewed for every OC opening there was, what, the whole league wants his OC's working under him but not him? sure thing. the bengals HC gig is only a 10 year gig if you have some success, like getting to the palyoffs for the first time and several times after a 2 decade drought.. then i dunno, having the winningest postseason record in franchise history, and being the winningest hc in the nfl right now in the postseason win percentage.. acting like he is some scrub and anyone gets credit but him is fucking stupid. its so fucking stupid. people can only really have this thought pattern if they are an idiot or an asshole. im going to have to start taking polls on which it is

Lol...NT.... Loves the KC ribs....

So what exactly is his role there?

Carroll went from USC straight to HC of the Seahawks. Sure he had prior NFL experience but he left college just ahead of the NCAA posse (so did Harbaugh) and they both got NFL HC jobs after the college HC jobs without having a lower position NFL job in between.

He sure doesn't look like a former RB.

Did he ever really sizzle ? Maybe a kickoffs but ran to sidelines as well. Time to move on

That would be penny wise and pound foolish. Risner made about a third of Alex Cappa's salary in 2025. And played much better. If we let Risner walk and replace him with a free agent, that player is highly likely to cost more and has a good chance of being a lesser player than Risner. If we try to replace him with a rookie draft pick, that would be repeating the Volson mistake and probably lead to Burrow taking extra punishment as opponents scheme their best rushers vs the rookie. Or we could, you know pay Risner fair value and move on to fixing the defense. But that's not the Bengals way, to be proactive. Who thinks other teams will "overpay" for any of the Bengals 2026 free agents? Hendrickson will get a nice contract from some team and my fear is the Bengals will tie their own hands as they wait through free agency to avoid losing the 2027 comp pick for Hendrickson. They could avoid that entirely by doing a tag and trade with Trey but it would be very Bengalesque for them to botch it and let him hit the market, then they miss out on free agents who they can easily afford and who would improve the team because they are determined not to sign as many free agents as they lose so they can keep the 2027 3rd round comp pick they hope for. Risner has been on 1 year deals since his rookie contract ended. He's never made more than 3 mil in a season so I think he would take 6 mil per year on a multi-year deal. But the Bengals won't structure it properly to protect themselves if his back issues flare up. We know that.

Thats what I asked, if it wasn't clear then let's be clear. I want to know who was the last college to nfl head coach, meaning he was a college head coach and went staight to nfl head coach without being a former nfl head coach or nfl position coach. Harbaugh from Stanford to the 49ners fits, Carrol does not.
