As far as I'm concerned, the dude can pound sand. The Bengals gave him an above market contract for one year of production when they signed him as a FA. Then they gave the dude 13 million more than he was supposed to make last year in exchange for adding an additional year to his contract at his...
It seems like all the discussion about the Bengals offseason has to do with the Tee Higgins decision. So, let's discuss.
The chatter as of today is that the Bengals will tag Higgins. This is not shocking news. Lots of fans hope we tag and trade for some picks while some folks are holding out...
After yesterday's action, the widlcard is wide open for the Bengals. Very clear path with a win tonight. Is it possible? You would have to pretty much ignore everything you've seen the last couple of weeks to believe this team can beat anyone outside of maybe the Pats or the Jets..... That said...

This is hilarious. I think Taylor is trolling the league office after the Burrow crap.
Zac Taylor and the coaches have received rave reviews from the players for taking care of them during the offseason with a light schedule that is based on the idea that leaders will be self-motivated and they'll do the work needed to win. I'm not sure it's his approach that has caused this, but...
I had this one as a Ravens win when the schedule came out. Big time revenge factor and a team that did a nice job defending us late in the season. Couple those factors with our team's slow start and Burrow's rust and it doesn't look great. But look at the Ravens injuries here. If Andrews doesn't...
Four year extension. Keeps him here for the next 5 years. It would have been hard for me to believe that they would extend both Pratt and Wilson, but they did it and they really got favorable deals for both of them. The future of this D is really looking good.
This tweet is cool because you get to see how much Orlando Brown fucked up Trey's neck yesterday. But it also gives us a look at ole Butch Hobson (left of the screen).... Not looking too great after a few days out in the heat. I know I like banging on him because of his cheesy ass headlines and...
For those that believe the league influences outcomes..... Keep in mind what the league has in play for a KC/Buffalo championship game - A game they wanted desperately ever since the last one ended last January.
Bengals win and they are AFC-N champs with a home playoff game the following weekend.
Bengals lose, their is possibly a coinflip to determine whether the Bengals will play in Cincy or in Baltimore.
I have a feeling the Bengals are using this as ammo..... If their heads are right from the...
As much as the man drives us nuts with his offense from time-to-time, last night further demonstrated why he is such an effective coach. He's just a solid leader that makes the right choices and does right by his guys. There's a reason the culture has been so good the last few years.... Now, if...
Bengals vs. Bills. Big-time MNF match-up with major playoff seeding implications. Also a really interesting chance for two teams that might meet in the playoffs to face-off and learn a little something about schemes, match-ups, etc. Vegas has the Bengals as a 1-point home dog, which is pretty...
Cool breakdown of Lou's defense. He really does a nice job covering up holes in that secondary by disguising coverage. Obviously easier to do to Picket or Tannehil than it will be for Mahomes or Allen, but it's a tough unit to play for sure.
5-4. I'd say most fans are depressed. Things would feel different if they were 6-3 and didn't lose Chido. I hear a lot of comparisons to last season and most people making these comparisons say that we were in much better shape last year given our past victories and future schedule. I think...
Let this one sit in a bit.... Mixon, Bates, and Boyd are eating up 33 million dollars of our salary cap this season. Next season we will move on from Bates, but Mixon and Boyd will eat up 23 million of cap. All three guys are great leaders and all three guys have had some good days with the...
With Chase being out at least 4 weeks, how do you see the offense going? I think in the hands of a good offensive coordinator, things would be fine (for now). You still have Higgins, Boyd, Hurst, Mixon, and you could bring Chris Evans in for different looks. Then, of course, you have Joe Burrow...
Hip injury. Doesn't need surgery. Does create issues for this team.
If Tee is healthy and Boyd is productive the offense can still put up yards and points. But, defenses will tighten things up without a threat to take the top off. The Bengals missed an opportunity in FA to add another speed...
