sparky151 Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Here's a piece from Dehner about the struggles of both backup QBs and what other cheap options might be out there. https://theathletic.com/4793633/2023/08/21/bengals-backup-qb-siemian-browning/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texbengal Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Supposedly the Bengals tried to trade for Cooper Rush in the off-season. Dehner talked about Brandon Allen possibly being a cut since he was/is 4th on the Rams’ depth chart. He’s better than Simian, and Foles and Wentz straight up blow chunks. If Allen becomes available, I’d grab him and cut Simian. He knows the offense and he’s had some decent games as a starter. And yeah, he looks like isht on occasion, but if JB misses a bunch of games, they’re screwed anyway. Thought Jake was ready to be the number 2, and he’s decent, but Allen is more trustworthy at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes this situation is that Siemian/Browning have got the kind of training camp reps that most backup QBs only dream about. They have taken all of the snaps that would've gone to Burrow, and seemingly done very little with them. There are few signs of much improvement as the regular season draws closer.

Theyll go with Sirmian. Imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|BlackJesus| Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 I would rather roll with Sinnett (who just got here) than Semenian. ... He at least had that one great preseason game against us with the Dolphins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
