You’re tired of missing the games ?? Odd, I get the games and don’t watch them. If they win, I watch the highlights. If they lose, I chalk it up to being more productive and making better use of my time…

I’ve said it before and will say it again. Let the team move. Good riddance.

Nope left it on to watch the defense. Still can’t tackle huh?

I finally got the chance to turn the game on and the first play, Burrow fumbles. Turning it off.

Wilson being out is not something that gives me more hope that the defense turns it around. Will hope for the best. Also, could this be the day Burton makes an impact with both Jones and Irwin out? So wish he could tap into that talent and make an impact.

Yep, pretty much where I am as well. Fucking shit show of a day that’s bound to get worse tomorrow. Thank God for left overs from Thanksgiving and pumpkin pie. I’m going to eat my way into a coma.

Continuing this conversation here... Just easier

Yeah, my buddy is a Bears fan and he's beside himself with joy. I told him don't worry, because if they are like the Bengals they will just bring in some other loser.

With a home loss to the Steelers, this should be the priority of coaches to be fired... All of them, except Darrin Simmons. Find a way to fire Pollack twice if possible. Kick Lou Anarumo in the nuts. Next step, hire the coaching staff from the movie "Draft Day" with Kevin Costner. Getting Costner as a GM would be a bonus. He can really work the shit out of a draft. He just has to continue staying away from any player with Diddy as their agent.

That was the worst clock management ever. How they managed to fuck that up is beyond me. Couldn’t help but chuckle.

That was solid and really my question in point that Joe did a good job explaining, in that why isn't he getting a shot at playing time? I get how they may view him, but as Joe alluded to, it's not like it can get much worse than what we've seen to this point. Glad to hear he's tearing it up on special teams. Probably why I haven't heard much about him. Those guys go unnoticed so much.

So the defense is too slow, too old, too young, too stiff, too undisciplined and/or whatever combination of any off those. Oddly, when looking at how hey have targeted defensive positions over the past few years in the draft, I think they've done a fairly solid job at trying to shore up most of those spots. DT, DE, CB all come to mind. Linebackers have gone unchanged for a while and the two starting safeties were free agent pickups. That being said, and I've said this before, they aren't getting enough out of these guys. Granted, you aren't going to hit on every single pick you make, but hardly anyone is making an impact this season. DJ Turner has had a much better season this year, but now he's done for the year with a broken clavicle. Jenkins and Jackson are young and learning, but I was hoping for more than what we've seen from that duo. Josh Newton was a captain and thought to be an above average tackler. Where's he been? Is Cedric Johnson incapable of matching the nothing we are getting from Hubbard? The safety play hasn't been great either, but there have been few tweaks at that spot. Get Battle some more consistent playing time. Dax Hill was drafted as a safety, got moved to CB and promptly got hurt. Myles Murphy has minor flashes but not what I was expecting from what many thought was a top ten talent that fell. That 2022 draft class has overall been garbage this year. No Dax Hill CTB looks like shit Zac Carter is gone Volson is whatever at LG Who knows where Tycen Anderson is? I think Gunter retired or some shit

Oh shit son... Apparently the season is saved. During the bye week they brought the ping pong tables back into the locker room. Who knew that was the solution to all the defensive and kicking woes this team has faced ?? I'll tell you what, the next time I find myself struggling with tackling some random person on the street, I'm going straight to the local rec center, picking up a paddle and wrecking some 87 year old's shit in some ping pong when he's done walking the indoor track. After that, I'm finding the first person coming out of Kroger and fucking up their day on my way to a glorious ending to my year !!!

Gotcha… couldn’t agree more

I've been called worse COB. LOL

Would be awesome, but I think the family might frown on me bailing on them for Thanksgiving. Silly family... lol

Now all we need is an address and time to be there my friend !! Yeah, it would be great to see a team that really took advantage of their bye week to prep for yet another shot at "Making a run". Something tells me this is the last shot they get, if that hasn't already happened. In looking at the playoff standings, the Broncos are sitting at 7-5 with their bye week to come in week 14. They are currently the #7 seed. We also now sit a game behind both the Dolphins, then Colts with their bye week to come in week 14 as well. Then there is us. Needing to beat the Steelers Sunday, make a run to the last game (Steelers rematch), and hope for losses from the teams above us. Figuratively, we aren't out of it, but just saying that when thinking about this team makes me chuckle. How bad is everyone else? Now I truly believe everything goes out the window should we make the playoffs, but scratching our way to #7 would earn them a road trip to Buffalo at the moment. Obviously things can change among the teams sitting at the top, but that would be a tough ask for this team.

Exactly. That might the first time in NFL history for that to happen as well. I blame Lou…

Of course we will need a new #2 WR when Higgins leaves and I assume Burton is a combination of unreliable and not being trusted. They are stupid enough, despite the glaring holes, to use a 1st or 2nd rounder on that spot.

And as hard as it is to believe, the Bengals shitty play actually has cost them during their bye week. Their week 16 primetime game on Thursday night in the Battle of Ohio and Stripe the Jungle, has been flexed out to that Sunday at 1pm. Mind you, this is THE FIRST TIME in NFL history a game has been flexed out of a Thursday night spot. Personally I don't care all that much, but took amusement in the fact that even on their bye week they fucked up. Well done Bengals !!

That's the God's honest truth right there Glasgow !! Followed up with talk of playoffs. Feasible? Sure. Probable? Unlikely. For reference, please see any and all discussion concerning our defense. On second thought... VERY unlikely I'm not going to lie, nothing would be more fun than a run, including a sweep of the Steelers to sneak into that last spot. I just don't know how many more times I can muster up a glimmer of hope with this team only to have them snuff it out with GREAT force. I feel like the beaten wife who keeps running back to the guy kicking the shit out of her because she knows he's going to change this time.

Hate the Browns and really hate the Steelers and had next to zero interest in watching that game last night. However, if didn't enjoy watching that football game in all that freakin' snow, you don't have a soul.

Mac has certainly struggled but his misses can’t account for that many games. Had the defense resembled half of what they previously had been under Lou, no one would care about the misses. That being said, Mac need to pull his head out of his ass.

Someday, someone is going to look back on the contracts Brady took from the Patriots and not be perplexed.

It started in camp and has lasted into the season much further than it should have. Cam running his mouth has been nothing but a curse. Reading his own press, getting the big head, whatever. He clearly had something happen with him that has led to his drastic fall off this season. I came into things this year feeling like, "At least we have Cam" and now I'm like, "You fucking suck". Germaine Pratt was pissed about Cam's play last week and then Lou dimes his ass out as well. I don't know what got into Cam, but it's been like a cancer for the defense and in turn, hurt the team. Don't get me wrong, I'm not putting all this on him, put he should be a stabilizing force and been anything but. The defense seemingly forgetting that it's "tackle" football and being good at tackling is kind of a priority is concerning. Vonn Bell aging 15 years hasn't helped. Geno Stone, "Best pick up of free agency" has been hot garbage at best. Sam Hubbard is sadly done. The DT's aren't great or they are young (Exception to BJ Hill). Bottomline for me to this point is FUCK YOU LOU and EAT A DICK CAM !!
