    We pay nothing that isn't already paid. 

     

    The draft pick would be league minimum and if it's conditional that might be 2025. 

     

    Plus the dead cap money goes away, correct?

     

    That's what I'm hoping, a 2025 conditional pick that can turn into a 6th or 5th would be awesome. 

    Hope it's not a standard conditional like a physical or something. All the legal stuff is behind him right?

     

    Whatever, hope he has a hell of a year, he deserves it and the money he was going to get.

    We have some exceptional talent on this team. We also have some obvious shortcomings. The thing that truly pisses me off are some of Zac's decisions though. That's self-inflicted. He's been bailed out a remarkable number of times by crazy good play, and crazy good luck. Obviously not today. 

    And talent that is now injured. The reason they are getting blown out is completely on Zac.

    I hate it when I'm right at this point--we needed this game, did everything to win it, and we choked. Plain and simple.

     

    And this is a point where CLE actually do us a favor by beating BAL...

     

    We better take this black eye to the face and know we are ready for the Ravens, after the way they lost to the Clowns, we know they we be ready.

     

     

    Damn it--this is a huge problem. Not only does this make us 1-3 in the conference, this almost certainly will force the Bengals to attempt to run the table going forward. Another letdown like this--and particularly to an AFC team--and the season is a wash.  Being real here.

    Absolutely agree, many members (most more in tune with the team than I) are eating crow from this thread, so I'll have my share as well.

    That was as good an ass kicking as the Browns gave us week one, and that shit should not be happening this deep into the season if we are contenders.

     

    Bengals are now in a very serious position of a must win Thursday no matter what Zak or anyone else says if we qualify for the playoffs.  Easy as that.

    my god man i have had 1000+ slices of larosas from kings island, from working there it was the only edible food, and i loved it nayway, so i had 2-3 sliced for lunch each day i worked there for 2 years, then add in all the full pies split with friends amung the years and years visiting.. its kinda like the hamd sandwich with potato chips after swimming on vacation, the larosas after water park and rides and being soaked and tired, was top notch for sure. great memory. sitting under the vortex(i think) in the larosas patio... man good times.

     

     

    so look.... if you go into skyline experiences expecting it to be chili, youre gonna have a bad time. its not, its a spaghetti and hot dog topping that remotely tasted like chili. and the cinnamon taste thing is a big much,  i have never heard anyone who wasnt told or already knew there was a TINY amount of cinnamon in there that they tasted anything remotely resembling cinnamon, same with gold star and "chocolate". its a tiny amount in a mix that has allspice and cloves if i recall. Gold star and skyline sold or sell flavor packets to make your own, only when they hit the market did the "OMG IT HAS CINNAMON/CHOCOLATE in it" come to public knowledge.. and everyones been acting like a dumbass about it since..

     

     its tasty sloppy diner level fast food. thats kind of it... no different than in-n-out fans acting like its god gift to burgers.. just a regional favorite for fast food.

     

    if your in juniper florida, there is a skyline brick and morter in ft lauderdale. i have eaten there, its authentic. 

     

     

    this is a great point also. also youre stuck using a differnt cheese, spaghetti, everything... so thats gonna throw it off too..

    So I'm to understand our canned shit down here is worthless...acknowledged. 

     

    Interesting you mention In an Out, the most over rated fast food that isn't even fast.

    I have occasion to travel to LA as my Son is there so I&O are very familiar throughout the area

    and every one has a fuckin line outside the drive through of at least 1/2 hour.

    And every driver has a phone in his face waiting for a mediocre burger that has to be upgraded, LOL.

    Not a fan.

    Im gonna get flamed for this, but Im getting the feeling we arent gonna be in the playoffs this season.  That calf injury in training camp forces Burrow to sit the entire preseason, where he misses valuable time and reps, and after how these two performances, its clear that the missing time he lost with the starters is showing.  Defense is doing all they can but the offense isnt doing their job and the losses are showing.  

     

    Now I understand our 0-2 start from last year and how it ended. we got into a 10 game winning streak afyer getting punched in the face in Cleveland and lost in the AFC championship game.  I doubt we are gonna run into another streak after being punched in the face again and not doing enough to make up for it in the following game.  And to be frank, if we decided that Burrow still wasnt ready for the regular season instead of rushing, we probably wou.d still be 0 for 2023.  We are 0-2 and 0-2 in the divison, which is close to a dealbreaker for the division title.  Can we at least get a win to get off our backs?? At this point, Im starting to have doubts with the Rams on Monday night.  This is getting closer and closer to a slippery slope, if we arent on one already.

    We are on a very slippery slope now.

    It was actually an 8 game winning streak and I don't see us repeating that again with a dinged QB, the AFC is just too competitive.

    It's too early to say the Rams game is a must win but if we don't see major improvement on both sides of the ball against the Rams at home we are NOT making the playoffs. The AFC has gotten alot better and newcomers like Jax, Jets with drama, Tenn and even Indy ready to take our playoff slot.

    We lose any of the next 4 games before the 49ers I don't think we make the playoffs. So yeah, 4 game winning streak with an injured QB.

    Not a pleasant thought but it's my reality.

    I think Burrow felt obligated to play after inking the big deal, but now by being a trooper and trying to gut it out hurt, instead of getting praise, all he did is allow the twittershere from other teams to unfairly say he sucks after getting paid. 

    I can see this as well. It looks to me Chase's comment on sitting 9 til he's really healthy, which was taken as humor, is nothing short of a prophecy now.

    We'd be much better off at 0-2 with a better healed Joe facing the Rams at home for his return or even later if need be.  Now, who knows?

     

    I was also intrigued by that comment made in the game about our coordinators still with the team when many others from successful teams

    are poached to other clubs. Maybe we are kidding ourselves and overvaluing how good they really are?  Especially Lou?

    I never was that impressed with Callahan. I'm not including Simmons in this discussion, he's proven.  We've been told we're fortunate. Are we really?
