  1. They also only hire family members for key roles within the organization and the success of the organization is left to someone with little to no experience outside of the Bengals way of doing things, which hasn't worked...just to be clear. The top of the Bengals org chart is nothing but Brown family members, not people who have been successful in this industry and earned the job by demonstrating their ability to be successful...like most other multi-billion dollar corps are structured and run. For example, Troy Blackburn is the VP of the Bengals and his main qualification is being Katie's boy toy; Katie and Paul are nepo babies and it's obvious they are in over their heads on many things when it comes to running this franchise in comparison to other owners, which is why the Bengals get treated like the Coco BeWare of the NFL...see the holding call that flagged but picked up for no apparent reason, end result TD for the Stealers...
  2. This x1,000 x infinity...if you run a business like a small business you get small business results and this is why the Bengals don't get respect from the league or national media. Frequently you hear the Bengals referred to as a Mom & Pop organization, which for a multi-billion organization isn't a compliment.
  3. This is who Zac Taylor really is as a HC, a .200 winning percentage.
  4. Staley should not have a HC job so that's no accomplishment being better than a guy who is going to get fired... Mike Brown loves comp picks more than 3 dollars off coupon at Frisch's. Who needs Von Bell or Jessie Bates when you have the 100th pick in the draft...
  5. That's debatable, Burrow fell into his lap and advocated for Chase. Without Burrow Taylor is a awful HC, his record without Burrow is abysmal.
  6. News flash...football is dangerous and causes injuries to the players.... Also, the Harbaugh Brothers are douche bags, now back to your regularly scheduled programming...
  7. I hear ya, I think they should play the best players and Scott has played himself onto the bench. Battle was impressive during the preseason and probably should have been playing more. I know against the Texans the safety play was bad, I would have loved to see what Battle could have done in that game instead of Scott looking lost out there.
  8. I noticed Scott was out of position and whiffed on a tackle early in the game vs. Ravens and then Battle played most of the game afterwards...Scott has been a disappointment but he wasn't very good in LA with the Rams so not sure why they thought he would be some adequate starter here. He's a good role player and ST player but he doesn't seem to understand angles and struggles with tackling, which is tough if that's your two main job functions...great athlete though...
  9. That's why we have to get out to a fast start, which will difficult with essentially a rookie QB making his first start..Zac is going to have really get this team ready to go..
  10. He's mad because Jaylen Warren is going to take his job, that's the guy the Bengals need to focus on...he's been the only one making big plays for the Stealers of late and the fact that they keep putting Harris out there instead of Warren is one of the reasons why their offense is mid Wow...they've been talking about doing this all year and finally pulled the trigger, right before the holidays...stay classy Pittsburg..It's definitely his fault that Kenny Pickett sucks.... Firing coaches mid-season is a move that reeks of desperation, it's not like the Stealers are not in danger of making the playoffs...I guess losing to the Browns with a rookie QB is too much, despite the fact they have one of the best defenses in the NFL.
  11. The Stealers are starting to fall apart, last week it was Pickens having a hissy fit, this week it was Diontae Johnson trying to fight one of his coaches.. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/diontae-johnson-had-to-be-pulled-away-from-a-member-of-coaching-staff-on-sunday The Stealers have had some issues at WR recently, from Antonio Brown and Chase Claypool being kicked off the team to the recent guys they seem to have issues keeping their WR's happy/sane. If the Bengals' defense can limit their WRs early I can see frustration setting in and the Stealers having a rough day and this team imploding..they are on the edge of falling off a cliff and holding players-only meetings discuss how bad they are, I can see lots of finger pointing and yelling...
  12. His coach is awful and he's supposed to be a defensive guy but their defense is horrible. Not sure how Staley keeps that job, they underperform every year and he's still employed.
  13. Fair point, but he also says a lot of dumb shit...like when he went after Ossai in the tunnel after they lost the game last year to the Chiefs, that was bull shit and very immature, not something a winner or leader would do. He recognized it and apologized so that's cool, in the heat of the moment, I understand. But the defense did get smoked and he's supposed to be a leader on the defense, so why is he going on social media talking shit about what could have happened in an alternative reality in which Joe Burrow didn't get hurt...once Burrow got hurt the defense was deflated and did pick up the slack and I don't remember Pratt doing much that whole game so I'm not sure why he felt the need to go online pop off to a team that beat their ass twice...that's some clown shit. I like Pratt, but yeah, he needs to sit down and shut up sometimes.
  14. I don't think Pickett is much better than Browning and we have better offensive weapons. My only concerns are will the defense tackle and will Zac get out coached.
  15. I always find it amazing when people go against what's best for themselves and people like them in favor of a corporation or some rich person who has nothing in common with you and couldn't care less about you. It's like they believe that if they blindly follow this entity or individual then maybe they will be able to have what that person or entity has, it's the oldest trick in the book and people still fall for it. It reminds me of Screech from Save By the Bell, being Zac Morris's lackey/punching bag, no matter what Screech did he wouldn't be Zac Morris..
  16. Agreed, Pratt shoud stfu and focus on getting better on defense. They gave up 34 points and he didn't do much to stop it, regardless of who is playing QB giving up 34 points is awful. The more Pratt opens his mouth the more he comes off like a clown. You can easily say he lost the Texans game by not getting Noah Brown to the ground but instead going for the strip and letting him pick up 10 extra yards. Pratt seems to not have much of a filter and some questionable decision-making. He doesn't handle adversity well and looks to blame others quickly, not what you want from a leader. Losing Burrow is a tough blow but hopefully, the defense can step up and be a dominant unit because that's what it's going to take for this team to be successful. They have enough talent on defense and offense to win games, the Browns just beat the Stealers with a backup QB and RB because the defense is balling, hopefully, Pratt can increase his level of play and lead the defense to play at a higher level..and it starts by actually tackling guys instead of going for the strip...
  17. How is this any different from what you do? I guess when you do it's ok because you're right or justified for some reason.
  18. Art Rooney, Charles Bidwell, Tim Mara, McBride, Modell, Glick are some of the oldest names in the NFL...not to mention DiBartolo and Al Davis for more recent names...
  19. I dunno about that, Bart Scott clearly has CTE and Burrow was hurt going into the game, I didn't see them trying to hurt him.
  20. Welp....it's official.. https://www.si.com/nfl/bengals/news/joe-burrow-to-miss-rest-of-2023-season-with-wrist-injury#:~:text=CINCINNATI — Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow,his wrist%2C" Taylor said.
  21. I agree, maybe the Bengals would have won one of those games with Browning and he would have had more experience, we all know a one-legged Joe Burrow was not getting the job done.
  22. 😂 Rappaport and his sources are hilarious...yeah of course they are going to say this...why even report this?
