If we got JJ, the rest of FA and the draft will only be OL and DL
-
There’s NO way unless Ja’Marr and JJ took discounts…maybe $20M/year each.
-
Rumors are saying Russell Wilson will take the vet minimum with his next teams since Denver owes him $39M. I sounds like the Stealers are interested. I really hope not.

I love Tee and would love for him to stay, but one thing that always comes to my mind is, you pay a top-level QB because he should be able to elevate lesser WRs around him — this “should” allow you to spend money in other areas. My mind says we can’t keep Tee after next year, but my heart wants Tee, Uno and JB to stay together forever.

Zac can do it, Joe can do it, this team can do it…we’ve all done it. No one else seems to be able to do it. All we need is [Insert free agent’s name here]. Let’s go win a Super Bowl.

That’s something I didn’t know: even a first possesion TD doesn’t end the game
With these OT rules, shouldn’t you defer? Then you know what you have to do if they score first.

Really want both teams to lose wish the Lions would have made it
We need to be the next team to win their first SB…I don’t hate the Lions though

Well, looks like Joe will still be the only active QB to beat Mahommes in the playoffs.

We just need to avoid the “WTF” picks…i.e. Drew Sample, Jackson Carman. Had we drafted those guys closer to where they were projected (Sample 5th round, Carman 3rd/4th round) instead of in the 2nd, who knows how much better those drafts look. Not to mention the Billy Price draft…we’ve got to stop reaching for players.

Well, hell, I'm switching sides. Turned the game on and saw Ray Lewis on the field and started remembering that the only QBs to beat Kermit in the postseason are Burrow and Brady. I really don't want Lamar joining that group and I don't want the Ravens doing what the Bengals didn't do last year. It's probably better for Burrow and the Bengals for KC to win. So, go Chiefs, I guess. <throws up in mouth>
That’s where I am with it too.

I hope we spend our 1st on a nice CB. Heck, our first three should be CB CB S.
Im assuming you’re being sarcastic?? I’d be ok with on CB, but we definitely need to address both lines more than the secondary.

Pollack seems to have a knack for making players worse.
See OBj's grading progression.
Here's Cappa:
Here's Karras:
Those are scary trends.

what... paying someone 12 mil dollars to play a position he's not played and only giving him 1-2 series in preseason to learn it after coming off a injury that ended his last season? then having a immobile QB playing in the shotgun for the 1st 4 week? yes Jonah needs to go, but the OL unit as a whole under performed , to me that speak of either coaching or scheme, or both .
Frank Pollack is definitely an issue. If I’m not mistaken, normally the OL coach is responsible for the running game/scheme as well. If that’s the case here, even if it isn’t, FP needs to move on and find his life’s work.

I know this topic has been beaten to death, but watching the Lions and Texans give QBs time in the pocket and WRs time to uncover, makes me wonder what Joe could do with that. Most of us are happy with the Ja'marr pick over Sewell, but we really need to address RT, LG, C, RG in that order (in my opinion). OB is ok for what he is and isn’t going anywhere, but everyone else on this line is replaceable. I think this is our last year of real cap room and I’d hate to see Tee go, but if we could get two OL in free agency heading into the draft I’m really starting to think we have to let Tee go. The reason we paid our franchise QB is so you don’t have to pay a bunch of WRs. Give Joe time and he should be able to take average WRs and make them good.

I’m guessing a 3rd for Bates and a 6th for Bell.

Of the teams left, who don’t you want to win?
For me, it’s the Browns, Stealers, Cowboys, Bills…in that order.
Browns - never been to a SB and I want that to continue…it’s something we have over them
Stealers - no explanation needed
Cowboys - I don’t want Dak to be considered better than Joe…and I hate all of the coverage
Bills - I don’t want Josh Allen to be considered better than Joe

The team needs to put all their TEs on 2 year deals, to avoid this repeating issue.
With our luck we’ll do that with Sean Brewer Jr. -

Putting our younger players who don't have a lot of high-stakes competition under the belts in those situations might be as valuable as simply drafting new talent. Zach Carter hasn't seen the field as much as he will now, for example. And lord knows our Safeties and backup CBs need all of the experience they can get!
I agree. I have to admit, it’s been a lot less stressful watching games with no expectations. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed these last few weeks. I love that guys are stepping up and the young guys are getting valuable experience, like you said. We’ll really miss Reader, he’s turned into one of my all-time favorite Bengals and I hope we can re-sign him to a three year deal.

I think I heard Robbins is ranked the 35th best punter in the league. At this point, is it too early cut bait and sign someone else (Matt Arazia?). Or does it make sense to let him have another offseason to see if he can get it together?

actually right now FAs come because of Joe Burrow is a winner, and they want to play on a team with playoff expectations.. now if they see that same team without Joe burrow still make the playoffs, and that team has Joe Burrow signed for many seasons .... it shows that signing here does not mean 1 injury and your playoff hopes are gone. it will only offer more to players coming here when the contracts being offered are close .
That’s a solid point. While I think that’s true, the true measure is if players will take less to play here. Joe, Ja’marr and Tee? Will take up a large majority of the cap.

He’s done well in JB’s absence. This was a QB centric offense where EVERYTHING was on the QB’s shoulders and centered around him. Now, it seems like it’s more catered towards the entire offense. When JB comes back next year, I hope this keeps up…it’ll make it easier on the entire offense to not be all on JB’s shoulders.

There are so many examples of teams in all sports…having squeaked into the playoffs by the skin of their teeth—and then declared impossible to even sniff the championship, did just that.
Tell me any team anywhere who doesn’t believe they can win it all, if given the shot? Only fans and media fools in tank tops make those judgments.
That’s fair. Some people believe they can win it all without Burrow, some don’t.-

I don’t think we should a 2nd and next year’s first for Newton. At MOST, I would think 49 and our 4th maybe…depending on how far we need to move up.
