i am not a fan of this but my dislike for that defense, Mixon, and just the overall Bengals as a whole I will not lose any sleep. Higgins, Boyd, Chase are likeable. The team plays dirty, they play dishonorable, this is (sadly) karma.

I don't know about emege but he is definitely getting experience

Those were some dark days but honestly some of the best times on this board

The piss poor tackling in high school is definitely getting more prevalent in the NFL. That's for damn sure.

In general there are few blue chip prospects to come out into the league and dominate. It is very hard to project them in the NFL now almost similar to TE's to develop. Then by that time they're almost too old and ready to be replaced due to various reasons. I can't just decide if it's the college system is that different or the elite level athletes are that much more advanced to the NCAA qualifed NFL athlete.

right now it's not the moving up i'm concerned about. i don't see ow chicago wouldn't draft one of the qbs and the giants wouldn't get one, too. #3 Patriots out of the mix for a top 2 QB trading down in the 1st to pickup a QB or anyone else later would be ideal for them to help rebuild. the bears second pick they're going to want to get a WR to pair with their new QB. The packers, rams, titans, skins and bucs would also welcome a top tier WR. nabers, odunze, coleman, and more all may well be fine and good but if i am buffalo i go into this draft hard. i go up and get MH Jr. and come back up to get Coleman. those two with Diggs and Kincaid would be unstoppable. i am 100% that serious and committed to Josh passing.

i am marvin harrison or bust and the only trade partner is new england at 3.

i don't know that it is a question but i am amazed at the inability of most of the NFL to incorrectly place value on prospective linebackers in the league. college prospects never seem to really have the pizzazz as they did just 10-15 years ago, and especially as they did 20-25 years ago or more. i don't know of a position more poorly graded for defensive prospects coming out of college than this right now.

in that regard yes. it's funny how insular IT folks make thesmelves and how they're put in the back of closets, etc. and they love it. we are hiring 3 IT positions in the company i work for and it's amazing how much we have to offer. we are a very strong growing company with incredible fringe benefits but no one is jumping at the IT positions we have other than underqualified people.

Oh BS. They get it first. Disconnect and firewall access to the firee. It's amazing how Hardline big corporations go or companies with a lot of trade knowledge.

This plus he plays so undisciplined and rogue.

I know this may come as a shocker to you but discipline creates sacks. Strong coverage, good rush lanes, luck, etc. Step off your high horse just a tad because people want to engage you and learn without you being a prick. They're gonna be one back if you're going to be one. Up to you.

Remember when he let Pat DiMarco run a deep route pass play in a playoff game?

I thought it was Mario world 3... 🤷🏼‍♂️ Bunch of nerds.

Douglas is a nice acquisition, Kincaid has started to embrace the role we envisioned in training camp, Joseph has contributed already. There are players which can be a part of the retool

Until the management shows better decision making, I'll only root for the laundry of this team.

perhaps but that team was full of talent and he had little to do with them.

i should have said the pressure did not do enough to change the game or alter the efficiency of wilson.

we don't know the full story about frazier and i haven't heard from a reliable source one way to believe or not but i generally get the feel that there was mutual frustration for both of them against each other. and mcdermott fired him because of the losses. if 11 men were on the field, dorsey would still be here.

you're lumping everyone in on this because of a herd mentality lynch mob. i had been against frazier not using more blitzes but did not hate him. just that he didn't adapt. you're acting as if all of the comments on him have been sudden. i know i can only speak for myself. since 13 seconds i have been 100% against him. since the Peterman 5 pick game in San Diego i have thought he was a chump. Since Houston's playoff game i thought he was a terrible game manager and inept at proper decision making. he's been the root of all these problems. sharp is drawing the same comparison and likely more recently evolved to this situation.

read the article to understand it better. it's a solid article from someone on the outside. this is an impressive statement and entirely true:

@HoofHearted argue this article. even here he calls out all of our defense and the blitz on 3rd down.

meh, it's easy to be incoherrent. my point was simple. you are trying to over complicate and explain the problems in a way that isn't valid beyond the stats/paper/etc. in practice the entire game was terrible at generating pressure. there was no need to continue to do something that wasn't working all day even if it was "not the same play as before" that's what people are getting at.

Your entire point is analytics without real football insight. Our attack to the QB sucked. Regardless of blitz or rush. You're also provoking semantics knowing yourself most people don't grasp all the lingo and blitz to most is the same as a rush. You're doing this on purpose knowing better. It's weaksauce. Further. We couldn't effectively get to rusa. We had a lot of issues in the secondary with communication, as well. We gambled and brought pressure and it was ok. The second time the broncos saw it coming. Anyone did. We don't need % comp rate or anything. So many of us saw the strategy of how to achieve defensive success just like the chiefs 13 seconds. It's been pointed out so I won't be redundant. Step down from your perch. Your analysis is fine but on the field it didn't work and was not going to. It is not about hindsight. All game we were missing Wilson and the jackass coach wouldn't and couldn't adapt.

Can we start having him wear the opposing teams uniform so Josh throws to him more?
