@trademark - do you think Mixon will be the starter by mid season?
Not sure if it matters, to be honest. If Jeremy Hill is averaging 4 yards per carry at that point, he’ll still be starting – but Mixon will be worked in.
@gramaphol - so on what would be the odds of getting the players and coaches as a group to do a regular ranking of the so called pundits who are forever issuing their own rankings of teams, players and coaches.
Heh. This would be interesting. Well, the players and coaches aren’t shy about talking to us about things they don’t like or don’t agree with, which is good. In my experience in pro locker rooms and clubhouses (dating back to 2003, in all four major sports and pro golf) most players and coaches don’t “like” the media and wouldn’t really like most criticism. Generally speaking though, they are OK with fair critiques.
@bengalfan74 - any indication who might be the starting RDE
Right now, it is Johnson. I do think he’s having struggles there, however. But I can’t see him getting the same number of snaps he got a year or two years ago.
@oncemoreuntothejimbreech - have you ever known any reporter to ask to see medical records to verify information?
Medical records are legally protected. No doctor should ever let anyone see those. There was a reason (and a good one) Schefter was sued.
@MaineBengal - 2-3 picks for surprise cuts of veteran Bengals?
Well, BT went today, but I don’t know if that was a surprise. I don’t know if Eric Winston would be a surprise. I guess Johnson is the only one that would really fit in that category.
@McC – funniest Bengal
Iloka.
@BonnieBengal – too early to panic.
Yes, but it’s worth being concerned.
