I asked Amarius Mims if there’s any hesitation on him being able to play next week against the Broncos, his response: “No, I’m good.”

I hope Orlando Brown Jr. is also good to go next week. Tee, too.

We need to be healthy as we can be to finally beat a good team.

On another note, Cody Ford has quietly developed into a fantastic 6th OL.

Good news, we need Mims, very good player for us already.

Great

Yep, after all the failed OL picks, they finally found one that lived. The dude may not have elite level PFF ratings, but not giving up sacks and pressures means so much more in my book.

Amarius Mims said there's no hesitation on his end on playing this Saturday.

Dude fought w/ the coaches because he wanted to be in there to protect JB.

Kid's a keeper

With Mims, Jenkins, and McKinnley Jackson, the Bengals may have finally hit on some of their early 2024 draft picks (Burton being the main exception in the first three rounds).

I believe some of our issues with draft picks is never playing them unless we're forced to play them, like Jackson and Jenkins, due to injuries.

Myles Garrett beat him like a drum on one play but other than that Cody wasn't bad today for the most part against a great one.

I like Cochran too, other than the penalty.

Amarius Mims is an awesome person on top of being such a great player. Love this guy.

2 Sacks for Kris and 1 for McKinnley today...

Both Jenkins & Jackson are, by most accounts, supposed to be better against the run. Nice to see them get some sacks today. If both are plus players going forward, it really helps our DT room. 

Some glimmers in the pan.
