  2. Projecting the Bengals' 53-man roster

    in THE BENGALS FORUM - For Bengals Fans *Only*

    Posted

    I am fickle and very predisposed to the "recency" effect - meaning I place too much emphasis on what I witnessed recently, versus whole body of work.  I don't think I'm alone that way.

    Tate was open repeatedly last night even though AJ missed him half the time.  He's in.

    Watson sure came back to earth quickly.  Now I think he'll make it to the PS without getting stolen.

    Hunt is still an enigma.  How can 6'8 dude bullrush his way into the backfield so consistently and still, despite the wingspan of a condor, miss the freak'in tackle?  Doesn't he make you want to cry?  Or scream?

    Carter is in.  Just as good as our other back-up linebackers and has a special skill off the edge.

    Where was Tate when we really needed him last year? Was he getting open? Fuck what he does against CBs that won't make the other squad's team. He wasn't "repeatedly" open for AJ to miss anyways. He missed him on one good throw down the sideline. At least he didn't throw a fuckin pick like....uh....other QBs do under pressure. Tate was open about as much as he always is in the final pre-season games. We've seen him do this shit before. We've seen him be a complete and utter nonfactor when it comes to actually receiving. Like....what?

    Hunt bullrushes against inferior, smaller competition. He also tends to get lucky when he's simply forgotten by shitty untalented OTs, like the sack he could have had that he completely whiffed on. Like....I feel like I'm the only one actually watching this shit sometimes. He is not a football player. He is a big ass man who has absolutely zero pop when he sticks someone. Its like he doesn't want to hit them. Like he thinks his size is good enough.

    You're welcome. :on_the_quiet:


    But yeah. That is a pretty cool pic BAB. Looks like you had great seats.
    Is that Rihanna (red hair) right up in front of you to the left? lol

    I was actually a little further up. Still great seats. Came down as it was winding down to where my parents were sitting. And no, not rihanna. Met some interesting people during the final four. Jay-Z. Got to meet the infamous World Wide Wes. Literally ran into Ndomukong Suh. Pretty fucking bombastic trip

    I don't think they're getting Shabazz. All signs point to UCLA. No idea on Bennett. I know he wants to go and play with Shabazz but I don't think that's going to happen. Harrow just wasn't very good at NCSU.

    I just don't see them being a power house next year. Noel will be good. I just don't see them being like they were this year.

    Yeah, well it would be hard to be one of the best teams in college basketball history 2 years in a row, starting mostly freshman.

    I can see a bunch of UK and UL fans on Bourbon St. mixing like oil & water....lol

    Be careful BAB.

    I'll be with fam, and I rarely drink anymore. Mostly gonna out for a little to mingle a bit and get some incredible seafood. But yeah. It will probably be fucking rowdy. If we knock them out, I can see there REALLY being fights that night due to some bitterness from lingering UL fans.

    I think Pitino will play a lot of zone. I look for the zone to sag into the lane to try to stop penetration and not give up the lob. If UK can hit a decent % from outside and loosen up the zone, Louisville could be in for a long night. I don't see Louisville being able to play man to man for long stretches of time. Maybe when Kuric is out of the game. I look for a similar gameplan used against Mich. St. In that game they slowed the tempo and shaded Draymond Green. I don't know if that strategy will work in this one as UK has so many options and can play any style. IMO Louisvilles only chance is if UK is ice cold from outside or gets in early foul trouble. I don't see it happening.

    Agreed. Louisville is tough on D. If they play the zone and try to shut down on Davis too hard, I see us getting a lot of decent outside looks. Our guys need to be ready to shoot. This game is about to be CRAZY. I get down to NOLA Friday. Gonna check out the city, interact with some friends I know are gonna be there. Got people from UK, UL, and OSU that I plan on seeing there. Should be a fun time. I'd like for us to destroy Louisville, then take out OSU just so we can smack the shit out of them. I hate that school so much lol.
