His own dad said he gets on him for setting trophies and pictures out. Let's give the kid a break and let him catch a pass before we label him the re-incarnation of Owens.

And as much as I like the board, I think the Bengals themselves are more likely to see the Twitter polls from Lance and Mo that tagged them then they are too find the polls here lol.

Well, if you actually knew more then anyone else you'd be getting paid for your opinion not debating on a message board. And no matter how much the game changes, one thing remains the same. The teams with the best DL's and OLs go the furthest. If drafting talented WR's was all that matter the Raiders and Lions would have multiple titles by now.

Casual fans? Really dude, sure the league is more pass happy then ever before but the rules have made it that way. Now, again no where did I saw don't draft Chase. I simply stated if you are going to draft Chase and that is your target then you have to commit somewhere else to fixing what was the worst line in the league. 

Difference between tackle and guard.... okay try this one on... read where I literally explained that the team had issues at all 5 spots. LT can't stay healthy. LG is Spain who can be upgraded or XSF who can't stay healthy, C is coming off an ACL, RG is Carman who should be good but we have to wait and see since he is a draft pick, and then RT is a one year rental not a long term solution.

Not so much a slight on you and your knowledge.  Not that you are a casual fan yourself because of your position.

There are "fans"(funny because it comes from someone being fanatical about something)that only know that our starting QB went down to injury and O-line was giving up sacks.

The above statement is true but not the whole picture of every nuance of the team's situation.

I don't know.  I could be wrong, but I do know many "fans" of the team who can barely talk about anyone but the few faces like Burrow, Mixon, or the major players let alone deeper depth positions, line players, etc.

Also for someone who is stating they don't like condescending remarks then why do you continually say stuff like "I needz da jersey" about Chase.

There is a very logical reason for taking Chase.  Yet you paint it as a "derp!!"

Maybe I'm just reading you wrong.

He said that when you're picking top 10, you take the guy that 'touches the ball and scores touchdowns' or a defender who can 'end games'. He said if you have the chance to take a game breaking WR, you should probably do so.
