ArmyBengal Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Love hearing guys breaking each other's balls like that. Reminds me of the military where that was an everyday occurrence. Either you're getting someone else or they're getting you. Shit got creative as hell, which made it even funnier. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, seems a bit over-blown. Uzomah had some moments that I haven't seen Hurst have (yet). I'm glad they got him, if he stays healthy he's likely an upgrade in the end, so no matter.

ArmyBengal Posted June 12, 2022 Report Share Posted June 12, 2022 Again, you have a look who Hurst has played behind and who the QB’s he played with were. His one opportunity to be the #1 TE resulted in a year CJ (who I love) couldn’t touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 At the least, I would be surprised if Hurst turns out to be worse than a lateral move. If he's that or better, the Bengals offense should be humming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 I said often during 2020 or so that I thought the Bengals should try to model their roster after the peak Manning Colts, and they have really done that more closely than I could have expected. Burrow has some Manning traits, notably with respect to accuracy from the pocket and pre-snap activity. He's also just really good so whatever. Chase-Higgins-Boyd recalls pretty decently the Harrison-Wayne-Stokely build. Mixon is at least comparable to Edgerrin James albeit not quite on that level, and he's better than Joseph Addai. Hurst could turn out to be a Dallas Clark type, and I don't think it would surprise anyone. If the line pans out like it ought to, then quite frankly "#2 offense in the league" sounds like underachieving (not that I would complain about that). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 It is a big year for Pollack. His two years with the Bengals have featured bad lines but with bad talent. The Manning Colts were deadly with that stretch run and then running various fakes off of it. It will be interesting to see if the Bengals can develop a bread and butter play like that.

HoosierCat Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 PFF ranks the Bengals oline as No. 8 in the league.

So they OL should benefit perception wise from that. I still expect a higher than normal pressure rate because Joe Burrow don't care about no sack numbers. I think Jonah Williams will be the biggest riser because he has been solid but the rest of line has been bad.... no media member or analyst is going to try to walk that line to praise an LT on a bad line from a team that was picked as a bottom feeder last year.

TJJackson Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 on a related note, Joisey: I keep seeing folks say we picked up average veteran OLs uhm, no, these guys are in the 70s and 80s ratings....above average at worst in all 3 cases we picked up 3 really good players for the price of one (perhaps one and a quarter) superstar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

membengal Posted June 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Florio ran with it, that’s why it got amplified. At least florio is making things up about a player wanting to come to cincy for a change rather than his usual making stuff up about players not wanting to be here.

AMPHAR Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 I mean I would not sulk about adding OBJ. I would wonder how the chemistry would actually work because the current top 3 could really complain about not getting the ball as much as their talent level demands. But trading out Auden Tate for OBJ, yeah plus there. But Tate couldn't get snaps because of the log jam. Of course when will OBJ actually be ready to play? Late October? November? So you could sign him. PUP list so it doesn't cost you a roster spot. If the Bengals are going to do a deal for someone not currently under contract, I hope its Larry O. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
