Great examples. Agree about Allen also nice to have Hill in rotation with him. Like to see Kris Jenkins turn the corner but he'll have limited snaps at best. Depth looks good.

Hoping Hudson plays. JB trusts him.

its a very pin pointable matchup difference... the cliche "burrow vs jackson who will take the north" but they dont play eachother... credit to the author, looking at his other articles he has a template for his stuff, but does look to focus on something specific that makes sense.. its pretty big different helping with an interior guy which both clogs the middle for stepping up in the pocket or blocking run lanes but gives favorable amtchups to the outside to collpase the pocket and cover the edges.. its a great marraige of players.. we went into the offseason thinking we MUST get a big veteran upgrade at Safety, and we must get a veteran upgrade on the DL, and we got 3. Dexy, Allen and mafe. then added a skilled freak like Howell. thats an abolute overhaul. your CB's are really good but lack depth, you can skate by with a backup for a few weeks if your front 7 looks like this and you have cook in the mix in the DB room as well. they flipped the worst spots with the best replacemnts and surrounded the group that lack experience and depth with talent and experience.. honestly a top notch job by the front office. I am usually sayingb"hey they got who was willing to come here for their value" Cook being from here is the only reason he is here.. HUGE win there.. Allen is that twightlight vet who can play spot downs, his body clearly isnt meant for the full run. Dexy is a menace. this is going to be fun no matter what.... vibes are up.

this is the fan version of what you think this narrative is. missed tacklesare telling, but the film tells who fucked up. like how many WR dropepd passes are due to bad throws? how many QB incompletions and interceptions are due to wrong routes being run? there are a few instances of videos of the linebackers from non bengals related film guys who are respected discussing the shitshow that was the defense last year, if the DL doesnt do their job and isnt controlling the gap then the LB is out of place, and rushing to get into the new place they need to be causes being there late and missing a tackle. no one is taking away the pathetic tackling that did occur, but missed tackles arent the casue of the problem they are far far more often the result of several other problems. so if youre looking at a reasonable realistic outlook of whats different: they arent rookies lost on an island together anymore every single player around them is better. and by a fucking MILE better The worst safety in the world do a Captain super bowl champ veteran the worst DT group on earth, to a pile of vets one mega star caliber DT, another veteran pro bowl DT nothing but leadership and successful track records Added talent at edge/DE, sure hendrickson left but he didnt fucking play anyway, you added ANOTHER SB champ, drafted a killer athlete, added to your other two first round picks(with some stuff to prove and/or pay to gain a year removed from injuries and really great or promising sasons from the two DB's second year in the system, no hold outs, no drama. just getting on the same page. Knight was moved to edge becasue everyone got hurt, he cant play that role, they had no choice, that wont be the case. not a few, 200 snaps. those dudes had never seen. afullback before, its like judging an employee ability to do a job based on their first day and their trainer called off.. knight had 11 missed tackles in the first 8 weeks. he had 5 in the last 9. of that he had 5 game with zero. but no improvement? how to fix it? open your eyes man. Carter had 14 missed tackles in the first 9 games, and 4 in the last 8 games...... both guys went from 1.5-1.7 missed tackles a game, to .5 missed tackles a game. thats a huge improvement just within the season itself. completely logical to very very very fairly assume theyll be playing way better football this season... youve seen lip service before... but you pretend this is lip service... we have all seen it.. a million times.. lip service would be: " we threw a lot at them last year, they had time to settle in so we will see how they respond this year" "they were young last year, they are still good young players who are still improving we look forward to seeing their growth" everyone here realized tackling is based on being in the right place at the right time right? this isnt peewee football, no one forgot how to tackle, you just need to be not confused and out of place. the team who lost the superbowl had 71 missed tackels.. the team who won the superbowl missed 110 tackles last season. Thats top 10 in missed tackles last year... SB champs... this is a delirious overraction and a choice to ignore any factors involved and a choice to ignore the clear and obvious reason for expected drastic improvements. ItS jUst CleArLY LiP SErvICe1!!11! ffs

Cause I love R-Truth, but fuck the Panthers lol

Yeah I recall seeing him walking back to the locker room after the PS game a few weeks ago and it still looked like he was limping a bit. Add to the fact that he missed a lot of TC reps so I wonder how much he was gonna give you right away anyhow. You could say that about last year too, but last year the DL sucked so he was gonna play early. This year, they have the luxury of bringing him along more slowly, since they have more reinforcements.

That’s big, and important. And we move forward … NVM.

Still healing. Close ..not to rush him til he's right

Reds lose to Brew Crew 20-0 34 runs given up by pitching last 2 games. No life .

He works hard and is passionate, props indeed.... he isnt super football smart and 35% of his takes are utter dogshit.. but i appreciate his effort and hustle. sort of looks like different cleat pattern but ws hard to tell. more useless content from Kelsey... " chase is football wr is going to play.... no there was no concern he wouldnt...but he will. send tweet " yea should be a fun group if they can be healthy. a few things. this segment sucks dick. fake enthusiasm is dredful to watch that chick looks like shes a fucking dog with an inch of makeup on in this video, dont wanna be rude, but i guess it is.. bad vibe from her.. jon gruden is a coke head clown ass bitch... imo jay is cool.... but again with the mike brown shit... those jackets are pathetic.. look chevy or whoever... just get patches they can put on their clothes.. rich or media people un unfitted suits is embarssingly sad of a look. used car salesman stuff. fitted suits are like $500.

Week 1 is the hardest game to predict the healthy inactive players. Could be wrong but I expect Tanner Hudson to get elevated from the practice squad for the TB game. There may be an agreement with Hudson about this before he was waived when a swing tackle candidate was added to the 53-man roster. They are not going to carry 10 OL for too long, maybe just 2 or 3 games. There should be 2 OL inactive for TB - probably Conner Lew with Jacob Bayer being the backup center. My guess is that Myles Hinton will be the other inactive OL. I think there with be 5 WRs active (Colbie Young inactive.) If Hudson gets elevated, then Endries would likely be inactive. No reason to carry more than 4 TEs for the game. The other 2 inactive players would likely be on the DL. Sounds like Stewart will be an injured inactive. One of the DTs should also be down. I think it will be Landon Robinson

Now there's a surprise to absolutely no one...

This is why we are going to win the divison, our biggest strength on defense is our improved interior defensive line, while that is our top competitor's biggest weakness. When I hear national media analyst predict Baltimore to win the division I instantly know they are lazy and don't know what is going on in the division. We added Dexter Lawrence and Jonathan Allen aka the Forgotten Man this offseason while the Raven's lost their All Pro center that held that offensive line together. Lamar and Henry aren't going to be effective when they have Lawrence, Allen, Hill, Slaton, Jenkins, and Robinson in their grill as soon as they hike the ball...they are going to regret letting Linderbaum walk in FA.

Houston opens at home against Buffalo and then Cincinnati. I would say this is a significant loss for them.

A battle is about to arise in the trenches..both sides..

O-line needs to bring it Sunday
