I see no pre-draft numbers for him, but I didn't really spend much time looking either. OOPSIE: Upon closer examination, I see that time was for Michael Thomas (Saints) and not Mike Thomas (Bengals). It showed up under Bengals since it was from an article comparing recent draft pick Tee Higgins and how he compares to Michael Thomas (Saints). The only reference I see to Mike Thomas and a 4.30 time was one quote from a Cincy Jungle article from a few days ago. Michael Thomas of the Saints ran the 4.54 ... "Mike" Thomas with the Bengals ran a 4.30.. Like i said just type Mike Thomas Bengals 40 combine speed.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly.. He had a string of 198 catches without a drop over a 22 game span. You may be right about using AJ as they have.. Lotta slants... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PatternMaster 869 Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 It seems like Tate believes the media hype and isn't earning a special teams spot. He's talented but he plays the same role as AJ Green, so who do you want getting those snaps...Tate or Green? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PatternMaster 869 Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 If Tate and his agent want to bitch and moan about playing time he needs to beat that midget corner on the fade route... horrible route he ran on that one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bengals made a mistake saying Green was never available for a trade, he and Ross shouldn't be on this team and we should have a somewhat serviceable lineman and draft picks. Well, maybe not much for Ross,, but still. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UncleEarl 753 Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 All this talk of trading for an offensive lineman is nonsense. When is the last time a decent offensive lineman was traded? Doesn’t happen. They are too valuable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
I_C_Deadpeople 551 Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 How many times in the off season and TC did we hear something to the effect of 'we are happy with who we have'' lol.

Turner and Taylor told everyone who would listen how talented and gifted Fred Johnson is....turns out he sucks. This front office loves Billy Price and Bobby Hart but these guys are going to get Burrow killed. Burrow fell into their lap, this coaching staff is showing they can't do what it takes to win at this level. Losing close games points to coaching, it's normally the difference in close games. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And the reality is Marvin wins 6 to 9 games with last year’s team. This coaching staff is just a low priced replacement filled with guys who once stood next to a good coach. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think they cut Jake Elliot hoping they could slide him under the radar to the practice squad. Didn't work. Water under the dam or something like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sea Ray 72 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Why put a kicker on the practice squad? If that was their intention then they're idiots. Another team can poach your PS anytime. This team has made a myriad of errors evaluating talent...but I will say that it does look like they hit on their first 2 picks in 2020 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

|High School Harry| 3,142 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Right now I would say Auden Tate should be unhappy with his current salary and ask for more. And get it. Who was it in the game day thread who suggested we move Alex Ericson along and keep Ross active? Anyone (almost) can fair catch which seems to be most of what he does. Ross could be a decoy that must be accounted for because of his speed alone even though he can't catch his scrote in his jock strap at least without hurting himself. What the hey with Ross? Go with the "even a blind pig finds a truffle sometimes" philosophy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt Ross could fair catch..lol I did not have a TV feed for the game - there were 2 incomplete throws to Tate in the Red Zone, what happened on those? Good coverage?

Good coverage? Yes. One might argue Tate could have timed his jump to be more powerful/box-out, but you have to give the defenders credit, they got in position and played it tough.
