I mean at this point if I'm running this team I have Perine, Yoshi, and Tee taking snaps in practice. So Wilson, Winston, Dalton, Dan from the Kroger distribution warehouse. Mike White from the P squad. We definitely need to do something. No one is foreseeing Browning starting and playing the remaining 14 games.

We are one stubbed pinky finger away from seeing what the Rypien kid can do. One pinky and one tweaked ankle from no QB at all. 14 games to go boys.

Why not? They've been here before and that's exactly what they did. Fact is without an MVP at quarterback this current team is pretty average - and that may be generous. We're not getting another MVP QB any time soon.

literally everyone is expecting browning to finish the remaining games.. like absolutely 100% of everyone on the team, int he staff, the front office, he rest of the league, every coach in the entire league, and their wives all know jake browning is the guy whose going to start unless we enter a tank period in the last 5 weeks or whatever.

Lol. Correct. I give it six games at most.

Thats the formula for 2-15 with the #1 pick

No - I don’t think he’s good enough to engineer wins against top teams. But I do think he’s good enough to beat bad teams, and at least be competitive with fair to good teams.

He did that the year he went 4-3, which included a 4th quarter comeback by a good KC team. That is, with a less talented team on O, and a team with a trash D… and while this D isn’t good, they aren’t that bad (so far).

That’s all I’m looking for from him.

His recent game tape tells a different story, the world has changed a lot since 2023, I think Browning's skill set has too.

Minnesota is a bad team, they have a backup like us and we got beat like we stole something with Browning at the helm.

The only way we see Burrow before the 2026 OTAs is if the Bengals can somehow compete, that is impossible with Browning at QB. Browning might be a great guy, but he's not a good QB

Sure - they got their asses kicked. It was ugly… and he wasn’t good… no one was. The game went south in a hurry late in the 2Q.

But I think it’s too early to say he’s done. Even though he made some isht decisions in the Jax game too, he did make some big throws, and he led them 90 plus yards at the end of the game.

Clearly he needs to be less reckless with the ball. I’ve said that. And I never said he was a good QB… but I think he’s average and against bad teams, that should be enough to win… and be competitive with better teams.

Agree if things go south, JB needs to sit the season out. But after 3 games I’m not ready to throw in the towel, and even if they lose the next 3, it’s a long season and lots of stuff can happen… injuries to them and other opponents, etc..

Let’s see what happens. At least, that’s what I’m willing to do.

Not like we have much choice in the matter but it would be nice to see him avoid the INTs at least, even if they lose.

Im sure the sports media would love to see a pointless trade for someone that's no better than Browning but more famous.

Not sure why anyone listens to any of them. They are just generating likes, clicks, stirring up shit, or whatever. They are totally useless.

Jake Browning sure has a lot of fans for a guy who his top 3 in Ints despite playing only 7 out of 12 quarters so far

So let's say Browning gets hurt, still no interest in Russ

Are you referring to the Bengals chances without Burrow and if I will be watching any more of this sub-standard product?

Ur right, there is no chance to win another game with Browning and its pointless to watch and support this team, because if they don't care about winning then why should I care about them

Well other teams have seen their backups and even rookies come in and either win games or at least put up a fight. Last night a team some expected to make a playoff run was completely dominated in every facet of the game. And Browning has been here 3 years, not 3 months.

From the penalties to watching the defense give up 10 yards 50 times to the same wide receiver screen to the left side, they were completely out coached and outplayed. It looked like a pre season game in the 4th quarter.

The 49ers won a game with Mac Jones and looked ok doing it. Daniel Jones looks like an MVP candidate.

It is getting very close to full rebuild time. Unfortunately, that won’t happen. That would include getting rid of Hendrickson soon, Taylor, Tobin (one can dream) and Burrow. Let the new coach bring in a QB and rebuild on his rookie contract. Burrow is too fragile to play in Cincy.

The Rypien kid can lead us to 3 points like Browning did. No dropoff

Sorry, sounded like "let's try Rypien and see what we have" sort of stuff.

They will get to that, I'm sure. Probably the other practice squad guys too.

So what's Wilson going to do with this squad? Get them to 7-10? This team isn't going anywhere regardless so why not take the top 10 draft pick?
