  1. Chew on this for a second. The Bengals don’t give a shit about running the ball. They have the most accurate quarterback in the league. They would probably throw it 100% of the time if they could.

     

    Until they dedicate the appropriate resources to it, they are going to be running their offense out of 11 personnel and letting the short passing game and RPOs be their primary run game.

    Here’s a really good article on how they run their offense against different coverages. Until they can establish the run, they’re going to see a lot of Tampa 2. They might look predictable but Joe is just so good at identifying what variations of Tampa teams are running. In terms of the guys they added - they got more athletic which is something they lack both at skill positions and offensive line. Geisicki in particular should be a weapon against T2 and beating the MLB in their deeper drop and helping them present 12 personnel at times to keep teams from disguising coverages.

     

    They need another man coverage beater. I’m hoping that comes in the form of a day 2 pick this year.

    If you’re talking about the Bengals - they’ve been pulling in a lot of extra cash doing concerts and things of that nature. Probably made a hefty sum having both of the Swift concerts at probably 70% of capacity.

     

    In terms of NFL - there were some questions regarding whether the Browns had done it for Watson. Seems like a dumb rule but I’m sure the owners love it because they don’t want to fully guarantee deals like the NBA/MLB and they can invest that money rather than it sitting there doing nothing. It’s where the rich owners can swing their dicks around a little more than “poor” small market guys. Big leg up.

  4. I would assume on a 4 year $90-$100M deal he would want at least 50-60% gtd. I think there was a chart floating out there that showed how Mulghetta usually gets in that area.

     

    Im sure the Bengals would give a healthy signing bonus and guarantee year 1 up to the $21.7M they are doing now. Probably in the $30-35M ranges likely why the two sides won’t be able to make it work. Was hoping the leverage they had would help especially coming off an injury ridden year but sounds like they are content to bet on themselves.

  5. “Some free agents are coming off injuries and one is Bengals defensive tackle D.J. Reader, who tore his quad in December and hit the market a few months shy of his 30th birthday. I’m told the expectation is Reader will be ready for the season opener and could be cleared for the start of training camp—though it seems like whoever signs him will probably be careful with him through the summer.”
