Stripes Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 I’ll reserve judgment about the Prince decision until I see him on the field. The coaches have had things right so far this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Sounds like they will be elevating Prince for this one game as an apparent better matchup against the Bills LDE Bengals roster says Prince is 15 pounds lighter than Adeniji, FWIW I kinda like that we have 2 decent options here.....as long as both are active, we can pull the chosen starter if he is underwhelming and see if the other can do better. Either can be swing, and either can also be the 6th OL in the heavy packages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COB Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 I’m sure you guys have all read the same thing - Adeniji is the more athletic guy, pretty good movement. But Prince is just better at dropping anchor and this Buffalo dude is a bull rush specialist. Encouraging to me that they’re willing to shuffle guys based on need and abilities. Use the right tool for the job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the right tool for the job! They have made it clear from draft day onward that they value versatility, and that extends to the coaches and the gameplans. It’s another example if adaptability. I just hope it works. I like Prince vs. Rousseau a lot more than I would Prince vs. Von Miller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Some Bengals veterans (e.g., Boyd and Mixon) have been making some blatant comments about the Bills defense to the media that aren't necessarily "insulting", but will clearly be taken as bulletin board material in the same way Brady's "fairly tough defense" was. I'm not necessarily mad about it. Just make sure you cash every check you write. I don't know to what extent (if any) it's deliberate, but I could see the Bills being an ideal team to challenge in this way. They're the ones stuck under the hump with something to prove, and it could be easier to get in their heads that way -- not all that different from the Palmer/Dalton Bengals sans the utter postseason failure.

ArmyBengal Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 If you truly think you are the “Big Dog” in the AFC, Mixon, then that means there’s no reason to open your stupid mouth. That kind of talk does NOT Intimidate another team, it only can serve to motivate them. Dumb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripes Posted January 1, 2023 Report Share Posted January 1, 2023 From the “who do you want the Bengals to face in the first round” perspective, I could also root for the Jets. I think they’d be the best 7-seed to host over the Dolphins or Patriots if the Bengals get the 2-seed (but all three should be favorable anyway).

TJJackson Posted January 1, 2023 Report Share Posted January 1, 2023 I know they're playing the Texans, but man, the Jags have been on a roll lately. up 21-0 on Houston I honestly dont know if I'd prefer them as an opponent over the Chiefs or the Bills given the way they are playing right now (and I know that wouldnt happen as things stand in round 1 of the playoffs, but round 2, maybe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be the 5-seed and probably play the wild card round in Jacksonville. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
