Bottom line Josh doesn't wear a cape and score 30 every game this defense is incapable of anything they are horrid and babichust go Tre is totally cooked Bishop is clueless the tackling is horrific etc etc...

Someone needs to be fired for this horrible coaching just horrific Babich must go dont even let him in the locker room

This defense is an embarrassment Babich needs to be pulled from the booth and fired immediately and get cole bishop off the field and put in anyone but him except Hamlin lol

Of course

This defense is an embarrassment and they are totally unprepared

Make that 3

Dear sweet Baby Jesus please let him be proven right!

Right, force a few 3 and outs and the percentage of plays he plays goes up... that would be nice

You know, I dont know... I know he was out injured early on and McD hates that... I saw him in a few preseason games he was relatively a non factor... I think it boils down too the others are playing better than him and he is a rookie... but I really dont know it could be a lot of things... ...

I think activating Bass from IR would obviously be the first step... you have got to think he should be ready by now and activated... but maybe not... my gut is as long as Prater is kicking well Bass stays and they dont use an activation move... If Prater faulters... then all bets are off.. jmo...

its a nice little soundbite/fact if you are looking to downgrade the effectiveness of the draft... but really what we are saying is that we were unfortunate with Max getting hurt and Jackson is not good enough at this juncture to play... Sure wish he was pushing a vet and showing some spark, but apparently not... this was what we saw out of Epinessa his first year... limited action, needed to transform his body, understand the D etc... not making excuses as I am disappointed where he is at... I was hoping for more... but he wont be the first 3rd rd pick to not crack a lineup early on...

Oh let us hope, we could sure use him...

I am with you... Josh is gonna need to wear a cape in this one... I also get the Pats dont run the ball well... but they have not played this Defense... so I am not counting on forcing them into passing situations unless we get a big lead... hoping for Front 7 improvement though... lets just play and see...

Not angry or miserable and quite honestly feel fortunate to be in a place again I never thought I would see after the Kelly era.. but I do appreciate the concern... truly

I would say.. lets not worry about that and just beat NE... but... I think they will have to make the streak 5 in order to do so... so lets go1

Torn here... but i am gonna believe Bills 38 Pats 35 in OT This Defense will be the death of us... But I hope Josh overcomes their ineptitude... if he doesnt or even plays average... this is a loss..

Well gimmie some of what you got.. I stress every game... lol... just me...

Yeah, I think this guy is one of those whose sum is greater than the parts.. .I also think they like the ability to go 3TE , I think if Knox wants to be here he will ...

LOL back to my. Oh wait, they are the Bengals statement LOL ... who knows what the heck this guy is gonna do LOL

i dont know but I would say if I had to say if he was playing or not based on this 5 second video bite I would say not ready... but its literally a walkthru 5 second clip so no idea... but I see what you see... imo

Oh I agree here... this guy has the appropriate level of nasty that the rest of the defense does not possess.... (Rapp has nasty but it is not the appropriate level... his nasty is against the whole of humanity and whatever is in his way... not just the opponent LOL)

I think you are 100% correct.

Yeah I am not sure we are apart at all... walking wounded hopefully help, will it be enough... let us pray... but if it doesnt help and we suffer the same fate this year we need get an objective defensive pro in here... and hey, I dont even think you need a top 5... top 10... I just want 1 just win it all once... I fear the D in its present form struggles to do that..

Yes and Petine before him... or after... oh I cant remember..

Shout out to @Mr .Defense who started this thread lol... you have been involved heavily, you could just sat back and watched the fireworks with a beer and laughed LOL... nicely done! Great conversation !
