ESPN analyst identifies how the Bengals' offense should improve thanks to something largely outside of their control
I'd like to see a better running game. It would make the offense more versatile and harder to stop. 3rd and 2 is usually a passing down for the Bengals but if we could run better, we'd convert at a higher rate. But we couldn't run because our interior offensive line are bad at run blocking. Karras at least was good at pass blocking, Volson and Cappa not so much. If we had a good running game, as our 80s Super Bowl teams did, we'd have an elite offense. We could close out games with a 4th quarter lead. We could play in windy or wet conditions. We'd be less predictable and put more stress on opposing defenses. Ken Anderson and Boomer Esiason were NFL MVPs on teams with good running games. Maybe that would work for Joe Burrow too.5 points

4 pointsBengals offseason blueprint: 1. Sign Jamar & hopefully Tee - Check 2. Extend Trey 3. Draft a young Edge 4. Sign a veteran interior OL 5. Super Bowl Easy Peasy Wrong. I stupidly had come to think that Mikey boy had failed to pass the Douche Baggery gene on to the grandkids. WRONG. Give Henderson the $30-32M/yr. you're gonna end up giving him anyway, sign Stewart to a fair 17th pick slot deal and sign either Risner or Scherff as insurance at guard to protect - you know - the FUCKING FRACHISE!

2 pointsThe other teams in the division are beefing up on CBs, in part to slow down Burrow. Meanwhile, the Bengals are sitting on plenty of salary cap space but seem interested in doing very little to improve themselves through trade or free agents still available. From The Athletic: Cincinnati BengalsCould the Bengals add another veteran at guard? The battle at both guard spots runs deep. Veterans Cody Ford and Lucas Patrick were competing on the right side during OTAs, with rookie Dylan Fairchild and Cordell Volson largely in the mix on the left. New offensive line coach Scott Peters sounds content with those battles, and there hasn’t been a clamoring to add another body to the mix. However, with veterans such as Brandon Scherff, Dalton Risner and Will Hernandez all still available and the Bengals owning an abundance of cap space, would they add a more proven starter to the mix and let the others compete for the remaining spot? I’d say it’s unlikely, but a move they should be considering. — Paul Dehner Jr.2 points- Keeping Our Enemies Close: 2025
1 pointFeels like half measures to me. They had plenty of cap space to sign one of the top FA guards but went with a discount option and a couple of scratch-off tickets. Plus depth, as you said - very rare for all 5 OL to start every game. Quarter billion invested in the QB and the best they can do is Lucas Patrick? Seems like they're always trying to do the least where the interior OL is concerned.1 point- Random 2025 Bengals related stuff
That would be a huge mistake, not because the value wouldn't be there but giving a guy a contract who wants to be here only to trade him is going to create animosity for other guys who want to be here. I think it's much more likely they keep Tee, and once Yoshi's contract is up let him go and let Burton slide into that spot.1 point- Random 2025 Bengals related stuff
If Burton starts acting like a pro & blows up this year, do we trade Higgins? Wouldn't hate it for a 1st or an equivalent player on defense.1 point- Random 2025 Bengals related stuff

I think most NFL fans are trained to think that QB value can only be measured by playoff appearances and especially Super Bowl rings. Stats don't matter, injuries don't matter, front offices don't matter, coaching staffs don't matter, supporting casts don't matter...only playoffs and Super Bowl rings matter. Everything else? Just empty excuses to protect your overrated QB.1 point- Keeping Our Enemies Close: 2025

The Bengals—and Cincinnati—were the beneficiaries of a gap in the space/time continuum, never to be repeated. And even that gap, was so favorable that Marty and Doc would never find it again. A bit of history that few remember is that—back in those AFL-NFL merger discussion years—the AFL was deciding the city for its 1968 expansion. It came down to Seattle (with its well-funded group and plans for the eventual Kingdome), and Cincinnati. Because of PB’s involvement—and his connection to the old-timers group at the top of the AFL pyramid (plus some “input” from the NFL old timer moguls), Cincinnati was granted the franchise. That Riverfront plans were further along didn’t hurt either. The AFL wasn’t guaranteed in the earlier mid-60’s negotiations that all of its franchises would be granted inclusion in the merger. The Bengals would have been last-in-first-out in that case. Riverfront was still 3-4 years away. But, the final agreement was for all-in as to the AFL teams (along with the “gift” of receiving the real Browns and Stealers in realignment) Lose the Bengals now…and this luck would never come to pass again. Ever.1 point- Hamilton County blames Bengals for delayed stadium deal
Minor miracle that Cincinnati, Ohio still has an NFL team at all, when you think about all the cities that don't. If they were ever to leave for some reason it's probably not coming back.1 point- Hamilton County blames Bengals for delayed stadium deal
It’s not the 90’s anymore and the other owners are not going to allow the team to be moved for free. Those relocation fees are paid directly to the other clubs so the Bengals themselves got a nice pay day when the Rams, Chargers, and Raiders moved. No chance they were ever going to return the favor.1 point- Keeping Our Enemies Close: 2025

If you ever get to Columbus, there’s a really nice trail along the Olentangy River. Starts just north of downtown and runs 14 miles to the northern edge of Franklin County. You also can hook up with trails that take you through downtown Columbus and south to Rt. 104 along the Scioto River, or west along the Scioto River, (but that one doesn’t go that far), or from downtown you can pick up the Alum Creek Trail, but you go through some sketchy neighborhoods to get there.1 point- Keeping Our Enemies Close: 2025

man its so wild to me how the media behaves. the lack of any real effort, and what they think effort is. this is a random stat, the take is 100% legit and accurate, but all of the things that would make the bengals automatically improve as a team for things that lost us games, this is the one we get an ESPN/MSN/whatever level article for? not the kicking was off due to holder and snapper timing issues? not the defense having key players miss 70+ games? but.... we prolly will fumble less....1 point- Bengals' embarrassing lag in NFLPA report cards keeps biting them
they already have this. 100% do have this. Seen it. Its possible some players are confused, and since they asked for 10 family passes, they just get to ALL wait in the general postgame area not in the room with food and snacks. Been to it. its smaller than most. but even the newest of arenas have "levels" of postgame accommodations, ive sat in the nba backrooms, ive had locker room access as a media member, and seem nfl finals level nba teams have a curtained area in the parking garage area for families to wait after the game, part of this is to discourage large entourages, there can be fights between family members, blaming players after a loss, bitching about not getting the ball even in a win. families and friends are sometimes emotional people. Keeping those groups small and not around is a very good idea. but every team and stadium or arena has place for legit close family after games.1 point- *** [RD 1] Bengals Select ~ SHEMAR STEWART, DE ***
That's part of the problem and an indicator of bad management. The constant drama and will-they-or-won't-they action undermine the platonic ideal of team harmony. Unless it's a brilliant scheme to get the whole roster hating ownership, ala the movie Major League. It's not that hard to get deals done, other teams don't find it to be hard and the Bengals aren't actually saving money for other players by squeezing the rookies and vets into coughing back money for the family ski vacations. It just needlessly creates ill will.1 pointAccount
