GoBengals

yea they had so far this season: The most back to back games in the league the most games played in the league the most road games in the league the most road back to backs in the league the most travel overnight back to backs in the league. and the toughest opponents in the league going forward now, they ahve the fewest back to backs, fewest road games, and easiest schedule. last nights win vs the Nets put them in second place in the west. They are behind the timberwolves. wolves had the opposite schedule issues of the nuggets, in every category i listed that are the other end of it. so NOW they get the tough road and shit travel games. nuggets should be in first palce by XMAS and be unlikely to lose it. none of that counting murray has played 9-10 total games,. KCP been out, AG been out, jokic tossed twice (the ejection the other night made national headlines for its stupidity vs the bulls) when bulls fans are booing the refs about ejecting a nugget you know you fucked up. sun are a terribly built roster. kings are good, bummer of a loss. rockets are playing out of their minds early, especially on defense, they were the best defense ranking in the league for a while. the rockets will fall off and may even miss the playoffs though. onto OKC tomorrow.

one of the softer ejections i have seen, jokic was pissed though, he may have asked to be tossed. malone also got tossed earlier. nuggets were getting fucked. Magic are a sneaky good young team, the Wagner brothers are interesting, one is very very good. can never remember which. not sure how there is even a list. Jokic has 7 triple doubles this year.. the other 29 teams combined have 8. AG played really well aside from his shot not dropping, passed well, defended well, rebounded solid effort wise. not his night, looks like he has the flu or something similar, been out of the lineup since. clippers got smoked, clippers been the nuggets bitch since the bubble 3-1 comeback playoff series. i swear PG airballs or hits the side of the backboard every game, in this one, he did both. fun game, first game we went to in almost two weeks. Jeff greens return was supposed to get his Ring, postponed it till next friday when houston returns. Green wore some chrome Jordan 11s in the first half. they were amazing. I like jeff green a lot, but his on court performance was easy to replace. he and Deandre jordan are best friends, so they were fun to see on and off the court. NBA fucks the nuggets AGAIN for i think the 5th back to back this weekend @ suns and @ kings.

yea aside from Jamals solo scoring ability, his 2 man game with Jokic is unmatched, no one can quite do it the same, or even close. the bench is so damn young its sloppy and trial and error. luckily some trash teams coming up. but you never know in the nba. the nuggets have issues with the speedy athletic young teams that have no specific star or offense to defend. like the pelicans, and houston. but teams like the warriors, clippers, mavs, are easier for them to tend with. Will be a close call if Jokic can catch magic in triple doubles this season or not. The Nuggets are similar to the bengals in that they have a bunch of young awesome human beings on hte team who seems to want to stick around, and not go chasing money or fame somewhere. nice thing with the nba, also, is that contracts are the same when youre a certain level star, max, super max, etc, and current holding team can do extra years or have perks but the money is the same for the most part. Murray injury has a silver lining, he wont be eligible to make an All star or all NBA missing so many games, so he cannot get a super max, just the max, which saves 10+mil helping them pay others and not going even deeper into luxury tax.

im not sure id draft any of those positions in the first 2 rounds honestly. id go DB and WR boyd and higgins deals are up, boyd should be cheap he got a #2 WR deal, he may be cheaper to keep than he currently costs, but Tee i cant imagine we keep. Cheeto's deal is up and he will be 29, so maybe a 1-2 year deal, hilton has one year left, and its at 7+ mil. Turner can likely replace hilton, i guess. is Battle the future at Safety? Hill is great, do we need another. It would be hard to pass up McKinstry, Nabars, Wiggins, etc. Im not against an OL, but some weapon replacement may be needed drastically, and some upgrades in the secondary is also probably not a bad idea. Id be down for DJ Reader to come back if he wishes at a reasonable price.

how has it been like 4 years talking about drafting OL as if its some magical fix. what world are yall living in? do you think nfl teamsa re just slaying in the draft? how many teams do you think have 5 good linemen? here is some sweet draft data for you. this is even harsher data than i used when i did my OL data for first two round picks. of which 30% made it to a second contract at all. but go off i guess... def spend both first two round picks on linemen, with the ENTIRE NFL LEAGUE AVERAGE FOR SUCCESS, we will have a 30% chance of landing a starter worth keeping when the rookie deal ends. i mean there are several articles about this and several more about why this is with Linemen. how do so many people just keep pretending none of that is true and available data.

the difference in luck sacks per game played and burrow sacks per game played is less than 1 sack per game. .82 sacks per game if i recall.

this is not ideal.

missed the last in season tourney game at home cause im od, and tired, next one is tuesday with the wild court and new jerseys... then no home games until afer thanksgiving. nuggets will have thier THIRD back to back on a road/road back to back in the first 5 weeks of the season.. the nba hates the nuggets. always have the wackest schedule

AG doing a signing Wednesday, I have his game worn playoff jersey from April 2022 game 1 loss to Warriors and had Shawn Voelker do a painting for me.

been wild how they are winning dispite the lineup and rotation shekups last few games. jokic typically was a rotation of: playif first qtr until 2min left, came back 8 minutes left in second to finish half, then repeat for 3rd/4th qtr.. he played full first and i think full 4th or close to it. julian Strawther shot the lights out then was cold next game. he is getting rookie minutes which is very few unless he is on fire, he was in a tornado against the warriors. they are sso clever on offense he was lost and allowed 6-8 cake points off wide open layups. the warriors actions on offense are bananas to get steph shots, disguising picks and screens to setup the next phase. not many rookies would have stood a chance. honestly to get that lesson and get blown up and still pull. win is HUGE. usually learning games liek that are L's, you cant give up 8 free points to a team like that and win too often. nice to have the real MVP out there to make up for it. Collin Gillespe filling in for Jamal did much better in his second game, he is too small to defend almost anyone though, Reggie Jackson keeping his role as point on the second team rotation is nice. suck not having a better scorer out with him. May need to stagger MPJ even more with that second team, he is shooting 50% as of last few games from 3. the second squad is gonna be very hot and cold this month without jamal. Then jamal getting back into game shape for 2-3 weeks after he is back is gonna suck too.

lmao he didnt get insane out of line and insinuate somones wife was attractive or anything... this whole article is none of our business... nothing about what goes on in a billion dollar organization is our business.. what kind of response is this.

please dont let volson make von miller look like 2016.

ah these picks are of the bengals sideline, which isnt on tv, people saying opposing sideline sucks

this is so much better than i ever expected of it.

lesean mccoy is an odd dumbfuck homer for the bills and seems to have some odd grudge against burrow. its like he is trying to get a job with the bills via being in the media nut hugging allen and the bills.

ha, he does look like his mother, other kid looks like me, and the personalities are swapped, its really odd honestly. hopefully Murrays injury isnt serious, left with a hammy issue didnt return.. luckily porter went nuts, he is 9/18 from 3 in the last two games.. I have an AG painting in the works at the moment, he has a signing next week. already have jokic painting signed, MPG painting signed, have a murray but not yet signed, and the AG on the way.. such a fun team. opposing fans get AMPED when they get a 4-6 point lead, and if there is more than 40 seconds left nuggets fans arent concerned. its never if we will win, its how we will win. been fun for sure.

i dunno about all that. he is currently ranked 79th for corners, with even dj turner ranking better. CTB got abused early in the year. if he keeps playing like he has th elast 2-3 weeks though he will shoot up the rankings quickly.. but top 10 is bananas at this point.

this was a lame call, it appeard to be reasonable but they came in waist high, he was moving backwards, they didnt really do anything wrong.

last question. if the LEAGUE WIDE, rate of a first or second round drafted o-lineman, remaining with the team who drafted him past their rookie deal, is 30%. why does everyone pretend everyone is both great at drafting linemen and has great olines, except the bengals. you just read an article saying why, LEAGUE WIDE, linemen are trash and hard to find.. why do you pretend its a bengals specific issue and start blaming coaches, etc? you JUST read it.. and the percentage of second deals for 1/2rd picks is less than 1 in 3. for the entire league.

follow up question. if, say, you have a QB who is hurt, so you are both always in shotgun, AND that qb is unable to move in the pocket and escape pressure at all, would that, MAYBE, make the performance of those protecting him appear to be much worse than it normally would be? asking for a friend.

got a question for ya. say you draft or sign a good player, right? if you put that good player, next to a bad player, do you think the performance of the good player would decrease due to being next to a worse team mate, which would reasonably make their job harder or put them in worse situations during plays? like say you put a guy like orlando brown, next to, i dunno, one of the worst rated offensive linemen in the entire league at his position? thoughts?

my god. why are yall so DESPERATE to pretind this dude is anything but below average? he had a basic block, meanwhile brown pulls from LT across the run lane and smashed the lineback creating the huge hole.. un fucking real with you all. the motives are starting to get suspicious to be honest.

jason williams fucking sucks.

the more i look at this the less it means to me.

i cant fathom that anyone the bengals drafted is slotted to replace higgins snaps in this offense, or boyds honestly. meh, i dont think playing with burrow years ago and being extremely below mediocre in the nfl since is much to yearn for, for me personally. for what? lmfao this is kind of a list of old, overpaid or shitty players. because teams dont trade good players on reasonable contracts no matter what their situation. waoah... "thats someones WIFE" - some asshole on here, probably. i dunno about all that, there were 11 trades last year, how many this year? not all that common. yall think the coaches just have a crush on Irv smith or something? they are giving him a chance post injury and injury recovery (hanstring injury was effecting him until the bye) but if there was a clear better option for everything we need you dont think theyd have replaced him by now? he isa 1 year guy making peanuts, if hudson was clearly better at everything, he would be getting more snaps, the coaches know something they dont care for, i would assume. im not sure than 12 lbs difference is really a game changer between the two. and considering the 2" height difference id say the frame is identical. yea those 11 games he was healthy for the last two years combined were awesome.. lol great player, but damn. lmao carl lawson isnt anything to write home about either. hasnt done a damn thing since leaving. and ossai cant stay healthy? Lawson has missed many games in 3 of his 6 years as well. ewww. no they wouldnt have. lawson is making 15mil. ayear, and young is about to get a huge stack when his rookie deal ends. lololol what did his body language say? he had one single catch. only has 11 on the year, zero touchdown, hell he has 1 more reception than irv smith, and like 88 more yards, Mayer is projected to end with 23 catches, 300 yards and zero touchdown... a guy can dream tho right?
