1. Cut Mixon
Nothing against him, but we just arent a running team. Paying the third most money on the team (12 million) to a guy that barely touches the ball and isn't super effective when he does is asinine. Draft some speed out of the backfield or go pick up a FA for cheap.
2. Find a punter.
Christman was freaking awful on Sunday and field position has been a problem for us all year. I am over it. Either draft one or bring in one in FA. It's a cheap upgrade that can pay huge dividends.
3. Bring these guys back.
Eli Apple, Pratt, Vonn Bell, Perine, Hurst, Flowers. None of these guys will break the bank and have been solid players for us.
4. Upgrade the OL
What happened with injuries in the playoffs was unlucky. The OL was OK this year, but nothing special. Go out and get that elite guy on the OL that we need. Joe goes from a good to best QB on the planet when he has time to throw and is comfortable in the pocket.
5. Find that elite game wrecker on defense
The Chiefs have one in Chris Jones. We need a guy like that on defense. Our defense is solid, but it's missing that one guy that can just wreck a game.
None of these things are huge asks. The Bengals have 44 million in cap space right now - third most in the league. Bates leaving and cutting Mixon would free up another 20 million at least.
Adress the crooked refs that fix games.We were robbed of the AFC championship game.So many no calls on KC that gave them the win.I can show anyone that wants to watch that game.KC made so many no call pentalies that gave them this game.Why should I or any Bengals fan waste all our money all year long and then get robbed or the main game? Folks this has to be address by the leagues front office.I can show you facts that KC got away with key pentalies. Joe Burrow was hit after he got rid of the ball 12 times and it was NEVER CALLED. When mahomes was running the ball, a player slammed our guy directly in the back and it was not called. Our guy number 21 was defending a pass and was called for PI and he never touched the guy.YOU get the picture.Unless full time refs are hired they get no more of my money and Zac Taylor and Mike Brown should call the league out.I am going to make it my mission to get this addressed NOW
