I have a theory that anyone who is a true Bengals fan has done something to personally piss off God and this is our punishment.

So he said Redmond would play, but didn't name him the starter (although he later ruled out a rotation)

Spain was called LG

Hart practiced but has not been given the nod.

Seems like a case of Zac giving only the info that he has to, or at least I hope it is.  It's pretty clear that Spain is the best guard on the roster, and if you have Hart and Adeniji available at RT, he needs to start somewhere inside, end of discussion.  If the guy can play RT, then RG shouldn't be much of a stretch.  

At some point, as with the staff, you have to make decisions with winning games in mind.  Loyalty to lesser players like Redmond (and arguably Jordan, although he can probably improve), much like loyalty to guys like Turner and Anraumo will continue to get this team the results they've been seeing since this staff got here.  Start the best 5, substitute when injury demands, move forward.

On the flip side, I think that when all Bengal fans die, they are immediately allowed into Heaven out of pity. 

So we got that going for us. 

Redmond concerns me.Whenever the Bengals are driving downfield and getting into a rhythm and get into scoring distance I’m sort holding my breath that Redmond doesn’t jump offsides.I like what I’m seeing from Spain.They should lock him in.

Seems like another purposely misleading thread title, intended to stir things up or "troll" the fan base, if you will..

 I could get on board with this since my Catholic guilt is running rampant...

Yeah, Zac cannot be this dumb. I was crazy mad when he said MJ was starting over Spain and then Spain ended up starting at 
RT stopping my insanity. We just don't know the injury situations and then jump to conclusions. I didn't even know Spain could
play RT. Great pick up. It really hasn't been Zac's roster management that is so bad, it is that he just finds ways to lose games 
that he should win.

Bit of fun facts:

The year that the Bengals joined the NFL (1970) was the year that Cincinnati basketball great Oscar Robertson was traded from the Cincinnati Royals to Milwaukee. Robertson's very first season with Milwaukee, Robertson won his first and only NBA championship. Meanwhile, the Royals kept declining and moved to Kansas City two years later.

Also, the Cincinnati Royals never had a winning record ever since the Bengals became a franchise in 1968.

So basically, the misery is not on just the Bengals, but all major league-level sports teams in Cincinnati other than the Reds.

If Hart practiced full go and doesn't start at RT, something is odd.  It isn't like any of the guys that replaced him set the world on fire and Hart had his highest rating the game he was injured.  

Not disputing your research here, but if Mike Jordan didn't lose his job to injury (or illness) when Spain played much better than he did, then I don't see how Bobby Hart loses his spot unless he didn't actually do all the drills in practice and "full go" is bad information.

It may be all of Southwest Ohio. Dayton basketball was primed to be the 1 overall seed aaaaand ITS GONE. That will never happen again.
