I think it's pretty evident this defense
Needs a gamechanger in the front 7.
It's been exposed the last 2 weeks vs AFC
North teams. The front 4 has solid players
But there is not one is a guy that can wreck havoc
And put the clamps on a offense
Chubb last week put the game away
And this week it was Jackson and Edwards
Nobody stepped up when it counted the most.
Not Hubbard not Reader not Hill not Pratt not Wilson
Oh yeah front 7 nice job on Dueverney
On that jet sweep. Made for a easier 2nd down
Conversion.
Next draft and free agency find that wrecking machine
To lineup in the front 7
Maybe they'll use their 1st Round pick on a pass rusher?
Every championship caliber team has a guy on defense that can wreck havoc in the front 7 both in the run and passing game.
Bengals should be aggressive at the trade deadline and look for a guy like that.
Chase Young, Johnathan Allen, Brian Burns, and Grady Jarrett all could be available come trade deadline.

Chase Young for Tee?

They don't have the cap space to add those guys.
It comes down to trading draft picks that are cost controlled for veterans that get paid huge.

There's a lot of quit in that guy.

They can make room if they really want to do it.

If they trade Tee then they would have too add another WR via trade. I wouldn't be against it though.
Tee for Chase Young is a dumb proposal
One is a playmaker and one fails
To make plays
We don't have a front 7, we have a front 6. Seems they made plenty game-changing plays over the last year.
Chase Young for Tee Higgins would be a mistake of heroic proportions. Height of Bungledom.
Might help if our offense could get 1st downs
Good thing we took bust ass Murphy over Michael Mayer

Well you know maybe then Lou should
Really think about going back to a 4-3
Cause the 4-2-5 scheme isn't working now
Especially against teams that can run the ball
And last year is last year.
I'll be glad when Ossai returns. He seemed to be ascending as a prospect.
