    Why did he bother to "talk to" him? Sure, how ya doin'...you OK? Natural. 

     

    But, if he and Bully Boy really had no intention of giving him a shot going forward--would they not tell him so? 

     

    Would like to see more on this. 

     

    Ol' I wanna speak to the manager face...I'm sure the Bengals media will get right on it for you, sir.

     

    What is your obsession with Westerman,  clearly you hold him in higher regard than the rest of the NFL. 

     

    Maybe you get a GM job ala Mike Mayock and sign Westerman so you can finally see him realize his potential.

    Eh, I guess that's one way to put it.  He was run out of the league for doing things like encouraging a player to leave voice mails threatening to rape another player's sister & murder his family. Repeatedly. So y'know, not exactly Mike Ditka material.  Then at Texas A&M he's asked to give a seminar on football to the local ladies & decides to spice it up with a bunch of crude sexual innuendo.  To a bunch of player's moms & older alumni.  

     

    Short answer, guy's simply a dirtbag and makes a mockery of all the team's talk about changing the perception of the franchise and high-character guys and blah blah fucking blah.  Redeemer doesn't give a damn if you eat babies so long as he gets a discount.  Then he gets to pat himself on the back for being such a good person in giving said baby-eater a 2nd chance. It's total bullshit & a big part of why his team goes nowhere.

     

    That aside, I seriously doubt Coach Restraining Order is going to turn chickenshit into chicken salad on our OL by screaming at them louder.  

    #NewDey or whatever the fuck this dumbass tagline is....but Taylor vouched for him and he's a good guy despite his gruff exterior...he's just misunderstood that's all

    A highly rated Guard (with high marks from PFF) is not going to simply be ignored by other teams.  He is still under contract from the Bengals, therefore teams are not beating down the door but are possibly in contact with management.  There are only a handful of reasons for not starting an individual that by all other observations and grades is a starting Guard.  Note:  We're not talking about grades from self professed experts on this board but verifiable stats from recognized experts.

     

    For those that believe that the NFL is always based upon merit have not been paying attention.  Blackballing exists whether a fan is too blind to admit it or not.

     

    Giving up a little over 700 thousand should make a person go hmmm... 

     

    As LeTigre would state, "Anything you say..." to which I respond, "Things a consultant might say..."   1.  I am not at liberty to say.  2.  This is above your paygrade.

    You do realize that PFF grades are very opinion based and not truly a result of advanced analytics. 

     

    I know that some PFF guys are in fact Bengals fans, since PFF operates out of Cincinnati and is owned partly by Collinsworth, maybe some of that unintentional basis has crept into their judgment of Westerman. 

     

    I would not use a week 14 PFF grade as justification for the Westerman hype that exists amongst some Bengals fans.  He's the backup QB of the oline, the most popular player who never plays.

     

    I seriously doubt 3 NFL oline coaches have decided that he's a backup but PFF and certain fans know better.

    Guy was top shelf everywhere he was: consensus HS all-American...cream of the PAC 12 crop at guard. Never a head case/problem anywhere. His one mistake was coming here...where recently all linemen come to die. 

     

    I have a feeling that the NFL has not heard the last of Christian Westerman. 

     

    Consensus HS All American doesn't guarantee you an starting NFL gig, I know you know that. Cream of the PAC 12 crop is a stretch, he made 2nd All PAC 12 once.

     

    If anyone's heart isn't in it, it's Westerman, not Ross.  Westerman was only playing because his was trying to please the old man, he'd probably be doing something else if it was up to him and that is what he's doing. 

     

    Good for him,  he's living his life and not trying to please others..#YOLO.

    I always thought he was victimized by Marvin's patented favoritism of playing and continuing to play poorer players

    as if to prove a point.  I can't even recall the name of the ass hat guard Marv played forever while CW sat as if

    Marv was trying to prove a point with the loser that he, Marv, was right, as always and the guy was going to come

    around and Marv could say "I told you so".

    The team, as well as CW, suffered because of Marv's massive ego.

    What a fucking crime.  CW looked good when he was in there.

    Lol....Marvin has nothing to do with Westerman decision,  you're acting like he's a future HOF player. Dude was 5th round pick that couldn't beat out Alex Redmond and countless other stiffs for a starting gig. How many teams are beating down the door to acquire him via trade? 3 different NFL line coaches have decided to not start him....

     

    I was wondering how long it was going to take before someone blamed Marvin Lewis for this and here it is....
