Thanks to Dunlap this team finished with something they didn't have on Opening Day. A pass rush.

In fact they haven't had much of a pass rush for some time now. That's a big plus heading into next year.

In fact I can't think of a better draft after one yr than 2010. Dunlap, Gresham, Atkins and Shipley all have a shot at All Pro and with Gee, Muckelroy, Hudson and Stephens they have projects that could pay dividends.

If we could draft like that this yr, I'll take my chances in 2011

Speaking of Muckelroy, he played great on those goaline stands the last couple weeks. Makes me think he could be starter at lineback for this team at somepoint!

Somewhat lost in the shuffle is the way Michael Johnson is coming on. I'm not sure what's needed to get him past the close but no cigar point, but he's playing more disciplined and it shows.

BTW, I loved Dunlaps sack today. Started with a bull rush, stopped completely to hold outside containment, then exploded through the blocker when the play action fake blossomed into a pass attempt. I can't begin to explain how rare a play like that is.

Johnson had at least one bull rush yesterday that deposited his blocker in Flacco's lap and messed up a third down pass. Between Johnson and Dunlap on the outside and Atkins in the middle the Bengals pass rush was borderline relentless. The Ravens had only 199 total yards on offense. And only 10 first downs. That defensive line had a lot to do with that.

It also gives MB further evidence that he doens't need more scouts or needs to change his personnel department.

Where'd you ever get the idea that MB values "evidence" when making decisions? 20 yrs is plenty of evidence if he valued such things. He's not hiring more scouts and he's not getting a GM. Deal with it and move on. In the meantime, keep hoping the blind squirrel turns up a few more nuts

Whoa! It was meant as a sarcastic remark toward MB not your statement. I'll use smilies next time.

I fully get it. My post was meant as a slam towards MB rather than where you're coming from. You've been around long enough. I know you "get it".

MJ made "Pro Bowl alternate" Michael Oher look like he was on roller skates several times. Best, even if sacks are ignored for a moment I'm guessing the Dunlap/MJ combo has resulted in more presnap penalties called on the offense. For example, the Raven blockers assigned to Dunlap repeatedly false started yesterday.

Atkins has managed to pressure the pocket from his first snaps in preseason. He's got a bright future if his body and role aren't changed. BTW, I've never liked Pat Sims and I swear his body has gotten sloppier every year he's been here.

Answer: More Carlos Dunlap.

Dunlap played like it was Varsity vs the JV.

Could you imagine Fairly in that line as well if the Bengals go with him in rd 1! Dunlap,Fairly,Atkins,MJ now that is a young fast d-line that would create alot of problems in the backfield. I would still like to see something done with the LBs in the offseason, its time to move on from Dhani, and move Rey in the middle, with Rivers, and please resign Brandon Johnson as a starting LB, he is the best they have! As much as i bashed Rivers this year the last couple games i thought he played pretty good!

I would love it. However, we all know what's going to happen: Head Coach Bob Bratkowski is going to pull a Ditka and trade our entire draft to Carolina so he can take AJ Green. Green will go on to blow out an ACL in training camp and will eventually end up enshrined in the Bengals' First-Round Bust Hall of Fame. But in the meantime, with the sudden loss of 2011's Great WR Hope, Sideshow Bob will go and re-sign Chad Ochocinco (who spent the offseason traveling the globe with Dhani Jones) and "we'll go to war with what we have."

It pains me to even read this. That you can conjure such a scenario tells us all you need serious help... wow.

Nightmarish. The phrase "Head Coach Bob Bratkowski" is enough to send me screaming into the night.

I'm a fan of Stephen Paea wonder if he'd be available in rnd 2.

Head Coach Bob Bratkowski

Well atleast he won't be calling plays....or maybe he would still call them O GOD....

I'm suddenly and painfully reminded that I haven't smoked weed since early November.
