Tonight will be interesting. Last week we did well against Tampa’s 1s and they last season actually WERE the best in the league.

I'm cautiously optimistic they will play well again tonight. I'm cautious, just because I've been a fan of this team for so long and each time I get excited, I get burned. So, I tend to temper my enthusiasm a bit. However, given what we saw last week, coupled with what we are hearing from camp, I am hopeful they will improve again this week. I'd honestly rather they have to face off against two of the best DLines in the league from last year in preseason to figure the OLine out then have then face off against the middle of the road or worst Dlines and have them excel but leave us wondering.

Our OL is getting the ultimate crash course during this preseason going up against the Bucs and WFT back to back like this. I think WFT has the best D in the NFL right now and could be a contender right out of the gate.

Please tell me we aren't playing Kyle Shurmur again.
Everything in this post is my fault.

Yeah, that was an impressive showing. Different DL's though and WFT is right up there with them. Carman handled Chase Young in college, maybe he might be the best matchup going against him on the edge who knows... (08-20-2021, 12:00 PM)jwalker3853 Wrote: Yes.

So, I tend to temper my enthusiasm a bit. Feel the same, these are two great tests and the Phins aren't terrible either. What I watched of the Vikes in their first game against the Broncos was not impressive in any way, not even the Zim ran Defense which is usually a given to be good. I could see us starting out 1-0 with confidence, but we all know to be cautious as Bengal fans.

Well, I'm not surprised. If anyone follows Willie Anderson on Twitter, he was very critical of Turner and said that he ruined Jordan.

I would have to think there is. I mean, these two really aren't worth keeping around on the PS from what we have seen (not that we have really seen Dungey). I just don't seen either of them being much better next year.

FJ held up fine last night at RT. Hopefully Pollack's smart enough to not move him inside like that last dude did.

That is the easy part. I am pretty sure what Turner was talking about was loving the game enough to put in the extra work that no one enjoys. |
