Just did my first mock draft - just for shits and grins. I still can't believe that we have gone so far in back to back years that draft season talk is this delayed. It is glorious.

Man, you are old. Even I know that one. Talk to your offspring, friend. Means - "I'm the man - I'm the chosen one I'm the one you've been waiting on - I'm HIM" - used a lot with the obs --- "He is HIM"

Mmmmmmm

what do you mean "uhm"? Looks like standard attempt to gain an advantage. Happy to see bengals doing it for a change. Usually it is the Ravens picking up one of our castoffs the week before we play them...

Oooo, I like that.

This is a spectacularly good read from Breer: https://www.si.com/nfl/2023/01/23/zac-taylor-on-lack-of-respect-for-bengals

Also. the drive when bills pulled to within 17-10 was full of insane clutch high skill plays. Burrow scramble. Chase splitting two defenders to convert a first. the Tee one-handed catch. The Hurst hurdle. Over and over again on a drive that really was the one that sealed the game effectively. Just excellent stuff. the Hurst hurdle in particular was huge converting that 3rd down...

been re-watching the game this afternoon/evening and dax hill had a really nice game.

This was REALLY good to watch - enjoy

He's absolutely gonna be gimpy. That's no secret. He will not be able to move remotely like he usually does. I expect the Chiefs to go heavy run and short quick passes. Try and limit possessions and shorten game like Ravens do.

Carman's power in the run game in his blocks was eye-opening. Still not sure he can handle speed rushers to stay there. Dunno. But hats off to the game he had. And Scharping and Adeniji too. Turns out we did have depth on the line. Pollack did a helluva job developing those guys and keeping them ready.

I'm just grateful I get to watch this team and QB at least one more week. We are privileged to get to root for this collection again. What a great group to root for personally and collectively.

because with him it isn't corny. he really does get like that.
