Iloka was a tone setter and brought that to the team. It's no this fault he was played out of position once Reggie left. Now we supposedly have our "Reggie" in Bates, but no Iloka....... Two steps forward 3 back. Williams is the weak link and has never earned his stripes. Never had a season like Iloka, never set the tone like Iloka. We have no one to fight back against the Steelers now. Look for them to batter and abuse the Bengals without much pushback from anyone anymore.
With Burfict out, we have no one to set the tone and the D lacks some serious bite now. That's what's most disappointing. Not good in the AFCN.
We have no depth at Safety and are an injury away from a complete cluster at the position. Not a win now move in my opinion.
Shaw's not taking his place... At most hes a backup Saftey and CB
if bates out played him why pay him to sit the bench
