  1. 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

    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 .

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

    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.

    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.

  8. 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 

  9. 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 .  

  10. i think once again he showed he will not change his idea for an offense scheme to fit the players available.. 

    so hopefully he learned that dont work ,

    hopefully he learned sitting the  starting offense for the whole preseason, still doesnt work ...

    and

    hopefully he learned that building a defense to defend the pass ,  doesnt work if you never have the fucking lead because your dipshit offensive ideas dont work against the teams in the division you are playing..

    Bengals are fundamentally conservative in their spending. They don't want to go all-in. They call that "mortgaging the future". 

     

    So every offseason they are in good cap shape but don't maximize the spending. IMO this past season was the time to go all-in. 

    yes but with burrow being out or hurt 3/4 of the season, and then Reader went down .. frankly the OL played way under what they was being paid.... so i am glad they didnt , however , this year though if they are going to is the year to. then need reevaluate the OL coach Pollack they just arent getting it done.  , i would franchise Tee (if he doesnt want to sign) hopefully get boyd to stay with a decent but cap manageable 3 yr deal.  let the 12 million dollar RT go.  , then focus on the defense.  we set up to cover the pass , but with our offense being so inept at times we got run over.

  12. i am with the , if the player is not 90-100% healthy then you sit them crowd. 

    it is time to learn what we can about this roster .. so lets see if this punter can handle the pressure. i would tell him if he under performs in anyway , he is  getting cut. not were bringing in competition next year.. he is gone .. if he can handle that then maybe he can grow forward.

    the OL either steps up or we move on with them .

    i wouldnt be afraid to pull any of them to make a point and let them sit for a series or 2.

     

     

  13. if the coaching staff would get off this shotgun formation only kick , then our offensive tackles play will improve simply by making the ends move in closer and pay attention to the  inside of the line rather then get to spread out bust 2 -3 step up and cut in all momentum  in a forward direction and causing the OTs to step back and out to engage them with all momentium going backwards
