That's fake news, he didn't post that

Relax, he paid for hand jobs...no reason to be in prison.

Germaine Pratt has to tackle someone instead of trying to strip the ball and Nick Scott has to sit on the bench, let the hyped up rookie get some PT

I wonder if he smashed up his Surface laptop on the way out the door...

Miscommunication with the safeties, looking a Nick Scott and Dax Hill..those guys played awful. Not sure why the Bengals front office thought Nick Scott would be an adequate starter when he didn't start for the Rams and his highlights consist of blindsiding a slot receiver coming from the middle of the field, that is not going to help you when you are playing Mahommes or any other QB that can throw the ball deep consistently. Losing Bates and Bell was a huge loss that cost us this game last week as the safety play atrocious.

Yikes...I guess I wanted it to be a 1 year deal after seeing him play... he sucks.

Yesterday was a kick in the nuts, very disappointing performance by the Bengals at home vs an AFC opponent, this is the type of game that can hurt your playoff chances if there is a tie-breaker...the Bengals were supposed to be better than this, but in reality, they are not.... here are my observations: Zac Taylor gets too pass happy with the play calling, he goes away from the run too early and doesn't call runs when the situation screams for it. Example #1, right after TB83 great catch and run and the Bengals are on the 9-yard line, with under two minutes to go and it's first and goal. You have to run the ball to force Houston to call a TO or run down the clock, they did neither and it bit them in the ass later on when Houston had a TO and enough clock to get in FG range to win the game...that is basic level call playing that Zac frequently gets wrong but the Bengals superior offensive talent covers up for him. Taylor got out-coached by Ryans, a rookie HC with a rookie QB...it was embarrassing. TB83 has to catch the ball in the end zone, an upcoming free agent that wants a big payday can't afford to drop that pass. I know he's sick about it but he has to catch the ball in that situation Germaine Pratt's tackling is a problem, he went for the strip on Noah Brown instead of going for the tackle in a crucial moment and turned a +45-yard field goal into a very makeable field goal. He was taking poor angles and whiffing on tackles all game, yes he makes big plays with strips and INTs but he has to tackle better since that is literally his main job function. The safety play was awful, Nick Scott should be benched immediately. He's on a 1-year deal and I would rather see the rookie back there learning and making mistakes than a guy that won't be here next year. Not sure why the Bengals didn't outbid Carolina for Vonn Bell but that was a big mistake as the defense isn't on the same level as last year mainly because of the inconsistent play in the secondary, starting with the safeties...those guys were running around like they had no clue or awareness and Scott was frequently out of position and whiffing on tackles when he was in position... The Bengals came into this game with low energy and thinking that they were the better team, they need to have more sense of urgency and commitment to details and fundamentals if they are going to do anything this season. It's unfortunate but every game is now a must-win.

Wow....interesting

So has the IDF done anything that would constitute savagery in your perspective?

Even if we don't have Higgins, a shell of Chase, and no Hubbard I like our chances against the Texans...it's been a cute story but they aren't on the Bengals level when it comes to knowing how to win...although it will be close game. Glad we're playing at home because the energy and noise of the fans will be needed...and we've got Joe Burrow.. Run the hell out of the ball, rush the fuck out of the rookie, and get the W!

Next man up, let's go!

I would rest them both, go heavy on the run, play action use Boyd and the young guns. The way the defense is playing, the Bengals should be able to hold the Texans to 21pts or under and Burrow should be able to get to at least 24 points against this defense that gave up 36 to Baker Mayfield last week.

Harlan is good, Green is Captain Obvious, his insights aren't that insightful...I still think he hates the Bengals because Robert Geathers turned his brain into mush... Harlan is one of the best in the business, he's up there with Nance in my opinion.

I would love to see some of the guys from the 90's and 00's get some love besides the usual suspects...some B tracks like James Brooks, Carl Pickens, Jeff Blake, Rudi Johnson, Brian Simmons, Levi Jones, Richie Braham, Bobbie Williams (that online from 2005 was the best in the past 20 years), Darnay Scott, etc.. Repairing relationships with former players and celebrating their careers is a big part of helping the Bengals become a first-class org, we can't expect the rest of the NFL to celebrate our former players if the organization doesn't. There were plenty of players that were extremely talented and loyal to the Bengals, those players should be celebrated while they are still alive.

Glad to see Pratt man up, admit his mistake, apologize, and grow into a true team leader after last year's playoff loss. The Bengals are a stronger team that is battle-tested and knows what it takes to win it all, I think this is the year they bring that trophy back to Cincinnati.

That's so Tomlin can glare at him when his play calls don't work....Tomlin isthisclose to firing Canada, he might do it at halftime, just relieve him of his duties like a failed military officer.

This is what immediately popped into my head when I read your post...lol...word to yo mother!!!

Buffalo is the biggest bunch of woulda, coulda, shoulda cry babies ever. They are scared to play the Bengals, that's why they left town instead of staying to finish the game last year and why we beat their ass in the playoffs. It snows in Buffalo all the time, every year, like clockwork, so using snow as an excuse for they got their ass beat is weak and lame af.

I was born in Indy and lived there until I moved to Cincy when I was 11 years old so IU basketball was a big part of my childhood...Isiah Thomas, Damon Bailey, Calvin Cheaney, Alan Henderson, etc...and Bobby Knight was the leader of all of those teams....now that I'm older and a bit wiser I look back and realize what a douche bag this guy was, he was out of control and behaved in a way that was completely unnecessary. There are plenty of great coaches in CBK who didn't have to treat people the way he did; John Wooden, Dean Smith, and one up the road in Lafayette...Gene Keady...showing emotion is fine but Knight crossed the line and did not seem remorseful at all.

Knight was a good coach but also a complete asshole, he wouldn't have been able to get away with half the shit he did in today's society He is the definition of white privilege and many of the things that he did would have gotten many other non-white men fired including but not limited to: Punching a police officer Say this about rape on national TV - "Knight said: "I think that if rape is inevitable, relax and enjoy it." Using a whip to discipline a black player in front of the media and refusing to apologize when asked to by the NAACP, then mocking them during the game by using a towel fake whip the same player...what a jokester..amirite?? Fighting with an opposing team's fan in the lobby of a hotel after a game Choking a player during practice Assaulting a student who dared call him by his last name Knight was a bully who used his stature and success at IU to do whatever the hell he wanted whenever he wanted and that's what got him fired. He was a good basketball coach but a shitty person who took advantage of vulnerable student-athletes by physically and verbally abusing them.

Thanks for sharing, there are some very thought-provoking articles in those links, and I will share a few so anyone who didn't click on it can read it.

So who is scarier John Wick or George Soros...you realize that Soros is a holocaust survivor Jew, so if he decides to support a cause against Israel then maybe he has a valid reason. Also, I couldn't find any articles from a credible organization, this story was broken by the NY Post, most famous for its hard-hitting journalism like Page 6 and juvenile headlines that always rhyme. Soros's non-profit gave money to many organizations in the past that participated in Pro Palestine protests, but that doesn't mean he directly funded those protests as you claim. If I give a homeless person 10 bucks and then two years later he commits a crime, I didn't fund that criminal...but carry on with the deflection.

What proof do you have that George "The Boogeyman" Soros is paying for these protest and more importantly why would he do that?

If they try to have him block Hubbard or Hendrickson it's going to be a long night for him, also he's got injury concerns so he may want to be careful coming across the middle on this defense.

Running David Carr out of town in favor of Jimmy G was a huge mistake, Carr was good enough to win, they needed to fix the defense and they didn't. Also, McDaniels is obviously a bad HC, he's been fired twice, so clearly he doesn't have what it takes to motivate players and get the results that were needed
