The Bengals, The 3rd Team and The When Will The Injuries End?

Not much to say or take away from this.

We didn't have much of a chance going in and it played out almost exactly as we expected.

Kudos to Josh Johnson on short notice playing well enough that we didn't completely embarrass ourselves.

And more injuries. We only had 2 of our original corners left. Both went down and Averett got carted off with a rib injury. Not sure we've got anything left to lose in the secondary.

Are you sure it was the 3rd team. I thought for sure we were deeper than that.

Mark Andrews another 125 yards on 8 catches bringing his total on the year to 93/1,187/9

He is 14 yards from tying a Ravens record.

Hollywood Brown 85/953/6

Proche 7/7/ 76 yards

Bateman caught his 1st TD. Never would have expected Josh Johnson would be the QB who through it to him.

+ Bateman, Proche, Mack and Washington.
- RBs. Please sign a couple of young Rbs who will actually run for a 1st.

The Ravens fought as could be expected with 2nd and 3rd stringers but that was still painful to watch cause they dropped 4 games straight.

And, in the words of Ed Reed....."I'm hurt dawg! Don't ask me if I'm alright! Hell naw! I put my heart into this :poop: (as a fan....lol)"

Don't forget Andrews!
Andrews is definitely a beast and cementing his status as top tier TE because he racks up yards & TDs regardless of which QB is throwing to him.
My post was intended to praise the young guys.

Stephens, Young and Queen very good, Jefferson quite good.
Clark is not convincing me, we give away too many yards when he is, we need an update on who manages the green dot either lb or safetie there you have to invest ..
in attack, I can't understand why McCreary or Williams have no plays, Freeman and Murray don't make any difference.
it is clear that bateman, proche, wallace, Andrews, marquise, duvernay win their 1vs1, if we are going to go that way Roman does not seem the right one to me.

The offensive line, bozeman, Cleveland and mekari are still the best. in my opinion.
he was relatively good in protection but thanks to the short and fast passes, if lamar can make them, we are going to be very dangerous

Honestly, today doesnt change much. If we beat the rams and steelers, we are in. Hell, the chance we win the division isnt bad still.

but going from 8-3 as a one seed to missing the playoffs would be embarssasing. We cant win a single game.

Things went as expected.

The depressing part is we will probably have Josh at QB next week too and the starting secondary may be even worse next week. if AA and Young are out, Jimmy and Westry returning would still be a downgrade. I would at least want to be able to have hope going into one game before the end of a season
Now it feels like the offseason started end of November
 
Can we make another thread or is there another thread in where the players that are expected to retire next year, leave, contract extensions etc....???. I don't keep track like some of the posters in here and would like to see what holes would likely need filled next year.

um, Dobbins and Edwards

We have no money left to sign anyone
I understand why they signed Freeman and Murray. I would've done the same. But don't you think it's better to test out some young rbs instead of Freeman - who's unable to run 2 yards for a 1st? Justice Hill is a FA so there's another reason to see if we have a 3rd down/ pass catching rb on our roster.
What happened to McCrary? Is he still here?

may have Huntley. back from Covid or even Lamar able to go. However at this point, I'm ok if we miss the playoffs. Yes, I'd rather us make it, but I'm ok with the miss.

Still proud of this teams fight. But can someone please explain to me why Roman called read-option plays with a 35 year old qb? Like seriously what the fuck was he thinking?
Also I hope the bengals are ready for the ass kicking we are going to give them next season when we can actually field a football team
