Game Thread: Week 8: Redskins @ Bengals

[Caliskinsfan]

Can't blame the guys for being a bit grumpy...practice 6 hours after a long flight and the time change.

 

[Caliskinsfan]

Mandatory refreshment during practice in England? Not bad at all...

Per Jay and not a huge surprise, Matt Jones out for Sun with a sprained knee.

Matt Jones got benched.

Jordan feels 'normal' and expects to play Sun

Josh wants to play Sun and says he feels 'fine' (note - he was wearing concussion shades thru practice...) but says it's not his call.

Matt Jones got benched.

Well he's injured as well...

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert is expected to play a "closer to full" role against the Washington Redskins in Week 8 according to ESPN Bengals reporter Katherine Terrell.

WHAT IT MEANS:
Eifert was only on the field for 15 snaps in Week 7, so he should play almost his full compliment of offensive snaps in Week 8. He has been completely removed from the injury report, so fire him up against Washington.

Heh

Not really. The Bengals offense has been playing on fields without end zones all season.

You could say that about the skins too...

So much similar about our teams...

I know. Lol. It just sounded good. I'm so mad at him right now.

Well with the way we sidelined Bruton and Kory with 'injury'... If Fat Rob does well he can easily supplant Matt for most carries the rest of the season.

Don't want to look too far ahead, but if the Skins draft a RB in the 2nd like Chubb or Gallman, I could see us trading Jones on draft day for a 4th or something like that. Jones can play but can you really trust him? That's the key. Maybe Jones gets his act together the same way Tiki and Alf did.

He needs to be benched.

Maybe Jones gets his act together the same way Tiki and Alf did.

What issues, aside from a lack of speed, did Alf have?

Once Tiki got a handle on his fumbling issues he became a hellified RB. He was annoying as fuck as a commentator once he retired though.

Heh.

Alf used to put the ball in the ground too.
