The dude is getting paid guaranteed money, so he's not pushing himself to get better.  He's not going to put in the effort until the 3rd year, so for now expect him to just go through the motions.   That's one of the biggest problems I have with this league and the money these guys make.

Other than that I agree. He's been hurting..  

I think there is a difference between an obligatory interview with empty platitudes and more lengthy sit down conversations where you get to see a player's authentic personality. Brown, Burrow, and Taylor are three that usually come off as quite authentic.

I would love to see Bengals develop a blocking scheme like the Shanahan's 49ers can literally sign somebody off the street week 8 and still have that player get over 1000 yards. The RB's in their system are highly likely to get an injury. The RB had been devalued around the league anyway. It's not that hard just Hire somebody from the Dolphins or 49er staff.

Actually it is hard if only a few teams are able to do it and be successful

Irv Smith might as well have been a traffic cone on that “chip” and Browning should have dumped it off to Sample. That sack could have been avoided if he had any awareness at all. He was panicking all day.

Exactly!  I'd have a bit more patience with him if he was showing up on the injury report, but this has been news to me that he's so hurt he can't do his job.

Sorry but that sack is more on Browning. Browns guy didn't even make the sack. 

There was only one sack all game that was not on Browning. This one is pretty bad and so was the one where he had Yoshi wide open for a TD and just sits there and gets sacked.

Do you know how the injury report works?

Well, it seems that EssexJohnson and I are on the same page, but you're implying that we do not know how the injury report works.

I do see that Mr. OBjr isn't on this week either but it seems like 12 of our players are on the injury report for the upcoming Jaguars game.  

On a brighter note, it looks like minus Burrow we could be back to full strength for MNF.   T-Higg is listed as limited.

That's not really somewhere you want to be...

I would turn that page immediately, burn it and never open the book again
