Vonn Bell on D attitude change “Guys (have) bought in. … they don’t take it personal. … that’s the thing from last year, everything was personal, guys were pointing fingers.” #Bengals

Dunlap maybe? Or who knows, but the finger pointing is never good when righting a ship. Hopefully the page has turned (even if coaches remain).

Actually, it is Anthony Munoz holding court with the group https://t.co/TmfvWjZTUV

Burrow to Chase deep ball.

Best I can do for a quick turnaround. This is off the camera.

#Bengals in pads today. That’s different. Not much else has changed from what we’ve seen. Another dominant day by the defense.

Absolutely nothing happening in the passing game. Trey Hendrickson with a pick of Burrow and only one completion of any note beyond 10 yards from him.

If they’re going to be that bad, I’d rather it be in TC. Not worried until I see it in the regular season.

Why do I say that?  Because if they weren't dropping back to pass every down, the defense wouldn't have such an easy time knowing what is about to happen.  If they could run the ball, they would be doing so, in an effort to keep the defense honest and off balance.

I think if the OL stays healthy there is a mix of them that will be decent but its early in camp still. WR's not getting separation is the most concerning thing to me at this point, especially after spending a top 5 pick on a downfield threat. Maybe our secondary is just leaps and bounds better, and there's nothing to worry about but I wasn't expecting to hear camp reports of WR's not being able to get open even on 7/7's.

Not saying this all means a ton yet, but I don't love hearing daily updates about how awful the offense looks. The D should be better than it was last year, but it shouldn't be THAT good.
