if thats what Tee wants then so be it. make a deal to sign near the tag with the agreement of no tag next year. now i do like Tee, and i have seen some very good things in his play. but i am not sure i have seen 30 mil /yr play . and i would hesitate at the guarantees being reported he is asking. to be fair the bengals have a track record of paying out contracts,

because it doesnt matter if its true or not. if enough repeat it , it becomes news.
its all opinions and of course .... undisclosed sources...
so simply put, they get paid to put out stories,
when they have nothing to say, they dont get paid.

But i also wonder if we would have kept DJ.( i am a big dj fan) how long before we would have got the pre injury DT? not knocking him or his rehab, just your not going to blow out a big mans knees and have him be back in 6-8 months
-
i think what DJ was saying is , the entire off season they didnt talk
and i understand if there are no talks going on in cincy, then when the window opens you have your agent talk to whom ever wants to talk.
i personally think cincy management was probably waiting to see how the knee responded,
banking on other teams would be cautious with a DT just having knee surgery
and it looks like they waited too long

If you're referring to Fields or Jones, then sure. They are seen as busts so they don't have a lot of value. Browning is seen as a guy who got his shot and unlike Dobbs was able to sustain success. That makes him a more viable starting QB than say Stidham.
just because you think he's worth something, doesnt mean anyone will pay up that.
i am sure if someone offered a mid 2nd for him they would listen,
to me he is more worth as a back up QB, and its not worth giving up for a 3rd or lower

really? all this fuss over a 3mil/ yr TE,,
like they were going to sign the worlds greats FA left in the books but cant now because they over paid on sample.
wanted Jonah gone, he's gone ,
you all bitched about Mixon, he;s gone,
so sample is your next sacrificial goat?
jesus they all arent gonna be stars
someone has to stay back and do the grunt work,
be happy the guy finally got a multi season deal,
the bengals are known to drag players along on 1 yr deals.

but isnt that against Baltimore?
or did i miss the sarcasm completley.....

oh yeah.
i am fine with a 3rd round comp instead of a 6th..
lol how does the nfl make that kind of mistake?
i guess it goes along as par for the course with the bills game decision to treat every team as if the bills had won so coin flips/ neutral game sites etc.
and ignore all the forfeited game rules they put in place for covid .
and not one as if the bengals had won the game they was winning before the game stopping incident

Rankins strength is pass rush?
i hope we get the lead and it works out that way,
however we set up our defense that way last year and when we fell behind it didnt pan out so well.

According to Forbes, the Cincinnati Bengals' revenue in 2023 is $498 million and based on the increase in the salary cap the 2024 revenue will be even higher, so $22 million is %4 of the annual revenue...or crumbs.
The Bengals don't have to pay him, but that doesn't mean he should not get what he deserves, which is a long-term deal at market value, which is around $22 million a year.
yep and after he gets paid he'll be one of them crying cause he had to pay 5 mil of his 22 mil and have to live off of a meager 17 mil next year . unlike the rest of us that win by only paying 10k of our 80k income and manage to survive on $70k , so yes get what you can, but for now the bengals possess his playing rights , and they paid 22 mil for that right, so the demands fall on deaf ears here.
here's an idea go out, convince a team to give you the contract you want and then trade for the right to sign it,
i believe that option is open for Tee and the megadollar agent .
so sit do nothing and get nothing
or the agent can go earn his pay.

Battle and Stone should start
Hill backup to them plus snaps at slot.
Keeps all fresh .
thats all well and good, but its a physical sport what do you do when one of them goes down, it would not hurt to have Bell (a player that produced in this system) as a back up, of course we dont break the bank on him and make it clear his job is to mentor and back up the safeties .

as much as it may be the tactic of this agent, Tee is still the person that has the end all power of that deal, i truly understand wanting the most generation changing money he can get, however, there is no "demand " to be traded, if he wants to be traded then go find a team that is willing to not only give you what you want from the bengals but to also step up and give away the draft pick for him . the bengals also have the right to decide if he gets traded, if Tee was smart he should negotiate a one year deal for the near tag amount (guaranteed)but not allow the bengals to tag him next year.

why dont we keep Jonah ??? did you think our OL play was acceptable?
No! there is your answer on Jonah.
so we blame the lack of a run game on the RB,
we dont blame the QB for poor pass blocking
we also seem to blame the RB....,
Do you all seriously this just changing out Mixon and running the same 5 OL out again is going to fix everything? let alone fix anything?
didnt we have pretty much the same 5 out there all year ?
well once the preseason was over and we let them play in live action on day 1 reg season..
the OL needs fixing. the only reason we seen any improvement from the start of the season to the end is because they sucked so bad in week 1.

yep , teams will franchise a wr for 21 mil without batting an eye, but for a punter to ask for 3 mil a year and its blasphemy ....

According to PFF he pas blocked 8 times and had a grade of 26.7. About as low as you can get
yeah i didnt think it was much if any.... LOL I have seen alot of "mixon sucks at pass blocking so he has to go..." and they want to replace Mixon with that.. i say that, because if you cut mixon, thats who you will have.

Williams struggles more with Garrett than Lael Collins did. I'm not in favor of bringing Collins back and doubt anyone else is.
but lets be honest . the oline was better with Collins at RT then it was with Williams. and i am not saying i would want Collins back.

even rounding it up to 3 sacks a game, the games i watched find that number incredibly misleading, even doing quick passes the qb rarely didnt either take a hit or wasnt under pressure. and that was with a high majority of shotgun formations.

I'm glad they have another guy with a lot of OL coaching experience. That said, wonder how Pollack took it, and how well will they work together? Could be a great marriage but could also be some contention there. Will be interesting to watch.
If nothing else, having another voice as they get to FA and draft player targeting could be a good thing, IMO. Lord knows they haven't figured it out for a long while... at least in the draft.
honestly with as much how our qb got hit and our rushing attack faltered , if Pollack takes offense to it , and doesnt admit he is right, he isnt the
OL coach we want.

but if history repeats , they replace the OL that got Burrow hurt.
i say they replace Williams.

and the best defense is having the offense on the field. way to many 3 and outs, its a team game
time of possession
wk1 24 to 35 min 3-27 loss
wk2 26 to 33 min 24-27 loss
wk3 36-24 min 19-16 win
wk 4 25-35 min 3-37 loss
wk 5 38-21 min 34-20 win
obviously there is more then just time of possession
and sometimes it is on the defense to get off the field
but the slow starting offense did not help

actually i think we showed we are more then just a joe burrow team, but zack cant get out of his own way.
design/adjust your scheme around your players,
do not try to make players work in your scheme,

what... paying someone 12 mil dollars to play a position he's not played and only giving him 1-2 series in preseason to learn it after coming off a injury that ended his last season? then having a immobile QB playing in the shotgun for the 1st 4 week? yes Jonah needs to go, but the OL unit as a whole under performed , to me that speak of either coaching or scheme, or both .
NFL’s “swivel hip-drop tackle” violation will be hard to spot in real time

yup , its tough on a defensive player, tackle hard take a chance at getting a flag , i dont see offensive players slowing down or stoping when they are in the grasp. if they can fight out anf break free then they need to be tackled and taken down to the ground. imo just another call that can be made at anytime to benefit whatever team they think needs it. anyone remember the player that sacked the quarterback and they called him for roughing the passer ? same shit different day.
