Couple weeks ago Burrow also said “Something has to change.” The only thing changing is probably Joe’s understanding of how the bengals work, and his place in the hierarchy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted November 1 Report Share Posted November 1 I’m already think the season is over but another home loss to a sub par team will do them in. Fire coaches, trade Tee, and burn it down rebuild mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted November 2 Author Report Share Posted November 2 I’ll believe it when I see it. Quote Could the Cincinnati Bengals actually make a move ahead of Tuesday’s NFL Trade Deadline? According to The Athletic’s Diana Russini, the Bengals are interested in trading for a cornerback or a defensive lineman, which are easily the two weakest positions on the roster. Oh, and Tee Higgins isn’t getting traded, which is pretty much a given between him being on the franchise tag and now sidelined with a hamstring injury. https://www.cincyjungle.com/2024/11/2/24286216/bengals-nfl-trade-deadline-rumors-tee-higgins-buyers-sellers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 season is over as far as I am concerned they've wasted much of Burrows career here by not securing the needed players, particularly on defense, to be a potential championship team. an average defense would have been enough. the pattern over the last several years of not winning the first 2-3 games is also damning, and I blame that on Zakky boy not properly readying the team for the season, in every single season so to me, the blame is equally shared between Zakky Boy and SoaG, with a dash of Duke Tobin thrown in Also - I dont understand why they as an organization cannot seem to draft or develop DLs or OLs. A few picks here and there aside, they havent been successful since the Dunlap/Atkins era on those two fronts. Ossai should be decently good by now, and Murphy should be developing and playing significant snaps, but neither is the case. If they get over 500 with 2 games or more games to go, I will regain some measure of interest, but right now I am expecting no better than 7-10-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volcom69 Posted November 3 Report Share Posted November 3 So much talk on Twitter, that Burton did something and they might make him inactive or something I was seeing, let’s hope that’s just some rumor. If they don’t let him play this game and actually start giving him targets I’ll be pissed! Also so much talk about them making moves at the trade deadline, I’ll believe that when I see it, but they better win this game first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted November 3 Report Share Posted November 3 Negotiating trades sounds like a lot of work. We already a do all that scouting etc during the draft. During the season we’re so, so, busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, how long have we talked about the Bengals and drafting guys with character issues? Like, decades, right? And to their credit they finally appeared to learn their lesson and it hasn’t been an issue for years now. But here we are again. They decided to spend a premium pick on a guy with known issues — because they didn’t want to pay the good player they already had at that position — and now they need him but won’t play him because of exactly those issues they knew about when the picked him. If you are going to take these guys knowing they’re fools and then don’t play them when they act like fools, who is the real fool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COB Posted November 3 Report Share Posted November 3 Burton not warming up, appears he will not play. I don’t know what kind of issues this kid is creating but damn, hurting the team. Higgins is out and they still won’t play him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure the game plan will be marvelous For some reason I find that amusing. An nfl team builds a game plan around you, you are on the verge of establishing your place in an incredibly lucrative profession, and you sleep through practice.
