Lindsey has been remarkable, especially for an undrafted rookie.
The TE position has been a mess. In training camp, Jeff Heuerman was at the top of the depth chart, followed by Jake Butt with Troy Fumagali and Matt LaCosse fighting for a roster spot. (all former Big-10 guys)
Fumagali went on IR just before the season started. Butt tore an ACL in September. Heuerman has been put on IR (for the third straight year of his three-year career) after suffering three broken ribs last week.
LaCosse did play reasonably well last week against Pittsburgh with 4 catches and a TD. He's now backed up by Brian Parker and Temarrick Hemingway (promoted from the practice squad).

Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your team for sending Pig Pen and the Stoolers home losers. :andy:

Ha! It was our pleasure! (21-11-1 vs. the Steelers since the merger.) If we could only do that well against the damned Ravens...

We'll swap with you. We typically do well against the Ravens, it's those damned Stoolers we can't seem to beat!

And the Tebow playoff win will go down as one of Bengal fans' all time favorites as we don't have much of our own stuff to get all excited about.

I really like Phillip Lindsay... He's so small, but has a ton if heart. I liked him getting in multiple Steelers' faces last week.
We can't cover TEs worth a damn. LaCosse is gonna chew the Bengals defense up.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Domata Peko took up at least one blocker which freed Geno Atkins and Carlos Dunlap to wreak havoc.

You have mile high magic on your side. This year Cincinnati suffers from sea level suckiness.

It was puzzling much like the Justin Smith hate.
All this.
Great complimentary DT to Atkins. Tough, durable and solid.

Shannon Sharpe could come out of retirement for the Broncos and chew this defense up.

Some of us did. And others laughed when Mike Zimmer called him the best NT in the game...

Yeah, Peko is a great man and has played better for the Broncos than he did for us for some reason lol
Thought he fell off before he left than he went there and was making plays. Think the change revitalized him.
Should be a good test for Billy, he had a rough game against the Stains.

Shannon Sharpe has a face for radio, and a voice for newspaper. And he looks like a mule.
No relevance to your post, my NJ Bengal brother. Just don't understand what that guy is still around.....
