kevnz Posted April 10, 2003 Report Share Posted April 10, 2003 The Bengals aren't the only team making changes in the Offseason. Having not won a game in the new AFC North I thought It might be a good idea too look at the other three teams.Baltimore Ravens Not made a lot of noise this offseason. However they look solid and continue to rebuild. However there big question mark is at QB. Can Redman come back from his back injury? If not does that mean a rookie QB under center? Could be a long year for them if that's the caseCleveland Browns Hah! The other Ohio team has gone way down hill since last years lucky playoff run. Cutting some of their best defensive players, and a QB controversy. They will be lucky to get over six wins this year.Pittsburgh Steelers The defending champs of the AFC north. They look good to repeat. However I'm still not sold on Maddox as a long term answer at QB, and they haven't shown the abilty to ever develop a young QB.CheersKev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevnz Posted April 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2003 jbengals1,Definately. Randle El isn't an every down player so that restricts what he can do. Second, teams know to expect the things he does. This doesn't make him less dangerous. But what it does is make teams bite less on his touches and punt and kick away from him. Maddox has to prove he can carry a team. He hasn't done it in all his time in the NFL. Bettis is a shell of his former self. However it's in the Bengals interest for him to play so that the Steelers don't actually bother getting another running back, or letting Amos Z get the ball. Of course saying this, even injured Bettis has lit the Bengals up pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
