I want Driskel to start. When he throws a pick I'll convince myself people aren't saying BOOOOOOOO, they're saying Drisk-OOOOOOOOOOOOL!
Who would you rather have as your QB...Jeff Driskel or Steve Urkel?
I had to think a bit on your Pinto station wagon.....

I'll take Uncle Rico over Urkel, actually.

Who wouldn’t? He can throw a football over a mountain! Would have won state if coach had put him in.

I hope Dalton doesn't get injured because whichever one they put in is going to shit the bed.

Why do you say Driskel sucks?

But think giving him the stage is to see if they really need to bring in another back up or not.
Believe they realize Barkley is not the guy.
Agreed. I think we're seeing the Bengals being honest with themselves about what's in the best interest of building as good of a football team that they can. Within Mike's budget, of course.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

Driskel at least looks like with good coaching he could develop into something good. Barkley looks beyond help.

McCarron did not look very good with the 1s against Cleveland, and there are reports that his throwing shoulder is injured. He has been thoroughly outclassed by Nate Peterman and Josh Allen based upon everything that I've read and seen.

How can anyone fairly evaluate Driskel yet? He has never played with a first team offense against a 1st team defense in preseason or regular season game?
I am excited he may get time throwing to AJ Green, Eifert maybe, Boyd, Ross and Malone. I will try not to get too excited if he plays well or call him garbage if he struggles in his debut on the big stage if he plays with the 1's.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

Wow, pretty harsh!
Just because Driskel was not a household name doesn't mean he can't be successful. To say he sucks is a little overboard considering every opportunity he's had has come with back-ups. I've been to camp and watched him. At least to this untrained eye he appears to be accurate and very mobile. Put him with a the 1's and see what happens.
To be honest, I would much prefer to have him as a backup than Barkley. The league has already seen what Barkley can do...meh.

I would be fine with it. Offensive line needs a lot more time on the field, and gives Driskel a shot at being QB 2. He looked much better than Barkley, but the 'weaker competition' conversation starts up there, so this will help.
I even thought last year that Driskel looked better than McCarron. Granted, it was a small sample size.
