Can't wait until they sign an aging linebacker and draft a CB.

I can't wait until they sit that drafted CB until 2020.

And start Pac Man despite being one of the worst corners in the league and multiple arrests/public incidents of violence.

Yea they need to clean house of some of these players anymore.Hopefully that happens.

I saw Lap was talking about Jack Del Rio, and something about Paul Alexander, I missed the conversation though so not sure what all was said.

Jack Del Rio wouldn't be a bad DC though if they hire him

[cincyhokie]

Paul Alexander and his wife will be back.  Because Mike’s wife needs a bridge partner.

[BengalszoneBilly]

Gloom, despair and agony on me.

Deep dark depression, excessive misery.

If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all. 

Marvins back, so let's have ourselves a ball!

[AMPHAR]

Is it possible the next coach after Marvin Lewis will be his son?

Yes Lap was talking big about Del Rio.  Marvin basically gave him his start as LB coach on those Raven teams.

Based on that alone, I’d expect at least an inquiry to Del Rio.  Lap had the sound of confidence. 

[ArmyBengal]

Don't get me wrong.  I will still show up here to continue talking the piece, but I'm done supporting this team in any financial way.
There is simply no logical reason to do so.  I was always told about supporting your "hometown team", but that time has passed.
Fuck Mike Brown !!!

[ArmyBengal]

In the last 10 minutes something jumped in my head and I immediately went to YouTube to find the clip.
There is actually a way where I would continue following and supporting this team.
At todays Bengals press conference, I want to see Marvin act out this scene.
For that, I would remain...

Del Rio as DC?  Yes I'll take that.  Assuming he proves to be a docile lap dog for the Brown family, he'll jump to the top  of the list for Head Coach candidates whenever this farce repeats itself.

Marvin back ....Lazor still here.....Alexander continues to exist. WTF just happened to my 2018 ??? 

Hmmmm having SERIOUS second thoughts about the family trip over for a couple of games next season.

[volcom69]

Yippie Lazor is back, so we can expect the awesome 2nd half team again this year!!! 

The 32nd ranked offense with Dalton and Lazor is ready to blow our minds. 

Damn the excitement is so real for me. Glourious bengals at it again!

[ShulaSteakhouse]

Lazor's a big "meh" - honestly I'm not sure they could find someone better at this point (or would be willing to).

What I want to know is if they're going to bring in a real o-line coach with new run-blocking schemes and scouts, or just quietly keep Alexander as "Assistant Head Coach" while that whole situation gets so little attention from the media here.

If they keep that deadbeat loser this franchise can f'k off because that offense won't be any different.

[membengal]

Feels like Alexander may be gone. reading between the lines on the Lewis statements so far.

If I could get that, I would let everything else go in terms of irritation.

[COB]

It's on the front of the enquirer's Bengals page.  They say Alexander's gone after more than two decades.  They then proceeded to use about 4 paragraphs to absolutely eviscerate him.  Nothing mean, just stating facts.

[COB]

My favorite - since 2013 they've drafted 8 offensive linemen and only one, Russell Bodine, has become a consistent starter.  And he's a free agent this off season.

They didn't bother to mention that Bodine's inability to block in '15 and '16 just about wrecked our offense in those years.

So glad this dude's gone.  He earned it.  I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but Paul Alexander has his own method of blocking.  No one else in the league coaches it or utilizes it.  

Not to bore you guys, but he coaches them to take one hand off the shoulder/chest area, and put that hand down on the opponent's hip, trying to turn  and guide the guy with that low hand.  

You lose leverage, you lose power, and you get your ass bullrushed right back into Andy's face.

[membengal]

Do I get credit for calling that from previous post?

Well there you have it.  Two decades of Marvin and he'll eventually be gone.   Two decades,lol.

Line coaches pro and college come to his annual seminar.   He's a scapegoat.    Marvin self scouted Bodine. 

It was time for Paul to go on the heals of 3 badly failed o-line picks.   It's time for Marvin to go.  Of course it's time for the Brown to sell the team.   Tobin as well.

None of these moves gets them any further, IMO.        I'd like see proof that it was solely Alexander that thought Ced and Hopkins was better than Whit ans Z and therefore the franchise tag sat on the sidelines and the self imposed salary cap of only being able to sign Dre or Whit was a good idea.  

I'll be open to thinking differently the morning I'm smoking ribs and other dead animals of the Marvin/Katie/Tobin led bengals playing in the AFC championship game. 

Marvin had great lines before and couldn't win shit. 

 

However 2 decades of the same positional coach makes as much since as a playoff loser coaching 15 years.

Zimmer did a hell of job as DC.   Marvin couldn't win shit.    Jack Del Rio brings a cool name and maybe he does just as good a job as Zimmer. 

Marvin still here with Katie and the self imposed hard cap.

You sure did call it.  Well done reading between the lines of Marvin's vague, condescending, statements.

You know what? I won’t let mike brown break me. I will remain a fan just to spite him. Because him trying to break all of the fan base is the only reason I can come up with for this. 

I agree with this approach. For one thing, I can't see myself being a true fan of another team. It's almost like a horribly dysfunctional relationship, where we get abused but keep coming back. Lewis is our Ike.

 The real test (beyond the last 15 years) will be if we spend any money on this team. But just understand that the NFL is socialist, so by spending any money on the NFL, you support the Bengals.

 

You'e welcome.
