Ha ha other NFL teams are so stupid! They have just one GM. But not the Bengals! If one is good, then THREE must be awesome! https://www.cincyjungle.com/2025/7/18/24470113/bengals-front-office-moves-promotion-assistant-general-manager-trey-brown

Who could have seen this coming, amirite?

According to the dna test I did, I’m about 60% Irish/northern England, 30% southern France/Bavaria, and most of the rest is Scandinavian. So I too have a drinking trifecta!

Speaking of 2025 opponents, former Bengals and current Browns DB Tony Brown is now The Ap3x. https://substack.com/home/post/p-167486344

You get to retire?!?! Man, must be nice. Pretty sure I’m gonna die at work…

The rich get richer, and the taxpayers get soaked-er.

This will make Mike's day, I'm sure.

He has one job…

New fan survey out and the verdict is in: everything sucks and ALL IS LOST!!! https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6485298/2025/07/15/bengals-2025-franchise-survey-results/ Highlights: FO sucks Tobin sucks Zac sucks We are never gonna win a SB Franchise going in the wrong direction This offseason sucked Organization hates its fans Seriously it’s pretty bad. Fan confidence has collapsed across the board.

Bengals kick the tires on another DT. https://www.cincyjungle.com/2025/7/15/24468182/cincinnati-bengals-free-agency-workout-kyon-barrs-2025-training-camp-roster

So here’s a breakdown on the situation worth reading from Breech over at cbs. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/back-to-school-back-to-the-draft-shemar-stewart-could-exploit-loophole-in-chaotic-rulebook-to-burn-bengals/ A couple points that really haven’t been discussed before. The first, money. Second, could he go back and play another year in college? Maaaaaaybe. That would be something to see.

I want Knight in camp, especially if Stewart is going to sit out. The last thing this team can afford is for its top two picks to both miss time.

Obviously Stewart's holdout has grabbed the spotlight, but it might be worth noting that Knight isn't signed either, like most of the rest of this year's second-round picks. I think a Knight holdout would be worse than a Stewart holdout at this point. Knight got raves in offseason works earlier this year and he is already pretty much locked in as the starter opposite Wilson. Meanwhile, Stewart was looking like much more of a rotational piece in the d-line, at least to begin with. Hopefully some other team can come up with a creative solution to the issue. Gawd knows it won't be the Bengals.
