In his latest mailbag, Coley Harvey was asked to do some stat projections for the RB's. Here what he had...

The estimates below are all a guess, because that's about all one can do with statistics of any kind this time of year. We'll see how close I get to those estimates by the end of the season. Before we get into the numbers, it bears mentioning that Jeremy Hill appears in line to be Cincinnati's primary running back this season. After a banner rookie season, the Bengals will want to ride the young ballcarrier a bit more this year. He proved last season that he can take being a workhorse back, and with a full offseason finally under his belt, he has a better idea of what it will take to get through a full season. Giovani Bernard still will be an integral part of the offense, but at this time it seems that he might be less of a runner than the Bengals tried to make him last season. He and Burkhead appear to have real chances to be used in space as slot-style receivers or out-of-the-backfield pass-catchers.

So, with that said, here's a super-rough projection of what we might see numbers-wise for the Bengals' ballcarriers this season, assuming the three asked about stay healthy.

Hill: 240 carries/1,200 yards rushing, 40 catches/175 yards receiving; Bernard: 175 carries/750 yards rushing, 50 catches/500 yards receiving; Burkhead: 40 carries/175 yards rushing, 20 catches/150 yards receiving.

If that happens, the three running backs will account for 455 carries for 2,125 yards and 110 catches for 825 yards. If this happens, these three alone would have rushed for 22 yards less than the Bengals did as a team last season on 37 fewer carries. The trio also would have nearly 200 more yards receiving than all of Cincinnati's running backs did last season. Those are some optimistic guesses, huh? Then again, had Bernard been healthy all last season, his numbers would have been dramatically higher.

Read all the questions/answers here.

These cheerleaders are the usual type of cheerleaders for Cincinnati. ...not a lot of ethnicity, skinny, no back end, no breasts, not above average in looks. I see other cheerleaders from other teams; an array of looks, ... asian, black, indian, etc...

Whomever chose these women chose all white women except for those of whom could pass for white, depending on the way the light hits them. I am actually offended. This city is not 99% white. The team isn't 99% white. The fans are not 99% white. So, ... why would you make the cheerleaders 99% white? It's a slap in the face.

In this article Harvey answers a question about our QB battle for backup. He seems to think McCarron is looking good so far. Quote: "So far in OTAs, Dalton and McCarron have distanced themselves from the others, making strong, timely throws and heady decisions. But again, there's plenty of time for Pryor and Johnson to prove they belong in the mix."

They use 3 different sources, all with different (but relatively close) numbers.

I found it interesting, as they listed the 20 highest paid Bengals, and noticed that Huber is 14th.  Our punter really makes 2.77M?

......I saw him walking down the street & asked him if he lost a shoe and he said no he just found one!


Much in the same vein as the "Keith Rivers don't kill people" thread on the old board I though we could do some "Yo Mama" jokes aimed at the #1 Bengals villain.

Any will do (old, ugly, fat, stupid, etc).

Go!

I know its been a few months but the Bengals giving Lewis another year extension on his contract just baffles me with what the positives were with this decision? I can think of a ton of positives for holding off to see how he prepares this team in the last year of his contract and also more options at the end that would benefit the team.

But seriously you have to put Lewis at the top of the list for the reason this team went into a 4th straight playoff loss looking totally unprepared to play in the big post season games. So why? Why would they give him another year?

What do you think is going through the front offices minds with this decision and what, if any, reaction will this have on the upcoming season?
