High School Harry

Exactly. It will be his third year and he should be coming into his own in a big way. IMHO and I hope.

yeah, just throwing it out there. And In Volson I Trust (usually a bad thing for the player) I just imagine Volson home in Nowhere North Dakota bench pressing locomotives while ummm... other Bengal players who shall go unnamed... opt for selfies and photo ops.

No Meadowlark Lemon, no vote.

So as of now. basically I see it as a pick ‘em between… In no particular order, on any given Sunday and/or whichever way the wind blows … Mims, Latham, and Fuaga… all also depending on who is there. All Offensive tackles. I also really like Center/Interior Lineman Jackson Powers-Johnsona lot. Draft one of the aforementioned OTs (I personally like Mims, albeit rawer than the others and we usually get burned on moves like that… but… can’t teach size and athleticism… and attitude) and trade up to get Powers-Johnson. Plug in for Cappa (NOT Volson) or have him play Center and Karras to OG. I am seeing this draft as crucial to the future of this team. It could be a Dynasty maker or another close but no cigar year where we talk about what should have been. Again. Protecting Joe Burrow is out prime and, indeed, only objective. Tag Tee and look at wide receivers high next year to replace him when he’s gone. D line… look for cap casualties like we did when we got Hendrickson. Or look for lower round potential and project prospects. Protect The Franchise, let everything else fall into place.

I thought that was supposed to be Ossai's role. What I remember best about Lawson was him blaming hell bent for learther into the offensive backfield and running past the quarterback.

I thought the Washington Generals was the team who always played against the Harlem Globe Trotters.

I hope Mixon gets arrested in the offseason and doesn't weasel his way out of it. Save us all a lot of trouble.

-1 for using the words "discount" and "season ticket" in the same sentence.

I always wonder if he gets paid residuals every time they show it. No and probably not.

And Tom Bodette even left a light on for them.

I like the Baby Cam and wonder what happened to the Growl drum team. Actually, seriously, I want a dixieland band in straw hats in the corner of the end zone and college marching bands at half time. Now THAT was entertainment.

Yeah, I kind of see this as a make poopie or get off the pot year. They simply cannot keep pounding those square pegs into the round holes and tell us Irv Smith is the next Gronk. I don't want them to get to the 18th pick in the draft and trade down for more meh picks when a plum or two is still on the tree "because we're Bengls, son." I'm thinking they simply have to think out of the Bengals box.

Fuck Hype. After last season's "Game Day Experience" and all of the Super Bowl shit it has overshadowed what goes on on the field, a professional football game. Now the 49ers fans are blaming the Super Bowl loss on Climate Change and Donald Trump like everything else. I digress. Hype Speculation... Bengals and Chiefs open the 2024 Season. Yes, please. Humiliate the Chiefs and Taylor Swift changes sides of the field at the end of the first quarter and goes in the the Brown/Blackburn box wearing a 67 Volson jersey. Just hope Joe is ready for season opener vs the Chefs and the refs.

Really sorry if I offended or said something out of line. I was worried that I had really whizzed you off. But about your post and thinking about the Bengals and tight ends... Absolutely and could not agree more. PFF is now projecting Brock Bowers to fall to us (doubt it) but if so, I'd be all over that. And, other top teams have a great tight end including Cleveland and Pittsburgh in our division. Hurst was a flash in the pan, Irv Smith a bust and I do like Drew Sample, excellent blocker and perhaps underused as a receiver on occasion but...

I think they are going to have to knock this off season out of the park. Fantastic and creative draft, maybe one quality free agent who is not home grown and perhaps in the interior D line. No more Cody Fords, Irv Smith, or Nick Scott. They simply cannot screw around and screw it up.

It ended after the last Bengals game for me. Fuck this shit. (didn't watch, btw... MUCH better reading this thread)

If he can fucking stay on the field.

It's when their 14 year old BF can't get her train bra unhooked and has to pull down the padded cup to get her miniboob out. And then not know what to do with it.

So true. Sois is hard core, bleeds orange and black. Speaking of bandwagonners... all the kerfluffle and Danish at work all week was about the Gen Z etc's favorite half time show. It was like they did not have a clue a football game was going to be played. Half time entertainment at the first Super Bowl was the University of Arizona and Grambling marching bands. A football game and a great college marching band at half time. Football the way God intended because He lets it be played on Sunday. Just showed who Taylor Swift dragged into the game. Bet they have not seen three football games in the last five years between them. One thing... tonight I am watching "Nature Boy" on Netflix. Mini doc/bio on The Nature Boy, Ric Flair! Woooo OOO! P.S. P.S.S. I did go to Hard Rock Casino this morning and put money on the Chiefs simply because I don't want to see Chadwick have to give up McDonalds.

Why would anyone do that?

And no Lemur or Watson the Wanker.

Tag Tee Wide receiver round one next year. Dance with Yoshi and Charlie Crinkle this season, maybe a mid-low draft pick or a cheap rent-a-player one year aging free agent with some tread on the tires and get on with it.

Is this another Joe Burrow thread?
