who even cares if

we need to kick the Ravens in the nuts.

Beating ravens should help us build momentum. It also helps that there’s nothing to do in Cincinnati

 

[jbuck]

every thing points to a Bengal win. that's worrisome

 

[DanBengalfan]

we're favored to win by 7 points, that's savage.

I think that win has done a couple of important things:

1-It has galvanized the fanbase. This team is the same old Bengals. There is reason to hope and believe, and its all because of Burrow.
2-I think veteran free agents are going to take notice and want to come here and be a part of something. Russell Wilson just tweeted (or said) that there's something special going on here. So if you're a good veteran player, who hasn't had team success, maybe you come in for a visit and let Burrow sell you.
I think of someone like Zietler (it won't be him, because I think he signed a multi-year deal with Balt), good player, steady, reliable, won't break the bank, andhasn't had any team success since leaving here. If we can lure a couple of free agents of his caliber, we can stay at the top of the division and conference.

I agree. And I think the Bengals have become more willing to do the one-year "prove-it" deals with free agents that can help immediately. Larry Ogunjobi just had a terrific year with the Bengals. He was allowed to play his best position and he got a lot of single-teams given that he played next to DJ Reader and Trey Hendrickson this season. I think they should be in the market for several of these types of guys this offseason.

Wait.... We have a scout?

Raiders request interview with Bengals scout Trey Brown for G.M. spot

Before the Raiders hired Mike Mayock as their General Manager in 2019, they interviewed Trey Brown for the position.

When did this happen and why wasn't I informed?

Yeah, I saw that on the NFL footer ticker last night. I was bummed. We have done a decent job of collecting talent the last several years under Taylor with Brown. Hopefully it doesn't set the development back too far if he does get hired away.
