I wanted us to hire Zac, but after 2 years of dreadful performance, I wanted Zac gone. While I do feel the FO has been too patient at times during the Mike Brown era, this is one instance where it seems patience will pay off. Second time i've read this today. I hate that saying almost...no, more...than "separation". Nobody is actually eating shit. You just say what you want and then easily cover it up with "eating crow", even though no one is going out and killing a bird and eating the damn nasty thing. Zero accountablility. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This isn't directed at you Shake. Just an rant about that saying that keeps popping up on here all the time. ![]() RE: ZT is 5-2 in his last 7 games - BigPapaKain - 10-07-2021 (10-07-2021, 02:27 PM)SHRacerX Wrote: Is that how you buy stocks? Don't look at trends or business analytics, just see that some companies have an average overall body of work? I have a guy for stocks. But I also tell him to avoid things like GameStop or Dogecoin. Look - I'm as excited as anyone that it looks like the team has finally maybe turned a corner. I'm just not quite ready to get emotionally invested in it yet because the specter of 25.5 losses looms pretty god damn large.

Yeah, I am cautiously optimistic that maybe they will be a winning team this year. That said, my brain does keep trying to remind me that the Bengals 3 wins came against 3 teams that are a combined 2-10 this year and Taylor is still a .264 winning % HC. But hey, forget my brain, I am going to worry about that later and just enjoy the 3-1 and 1st in the division right now. Not a ton of cause to celebrate over the last few years so you enjoy it when there is some.

Not a coincidence we are starting to win once this has finally been upgraded on both sides of the ball.

Yeah, we can all go back to being negative nancy's if the train goes off the track. Just enjoy the here and now while we are actually looking like we are on the damn track for once.

They may not be the most talented that we have ever seen here, but they have a relentless nature. Idk man. I'd say this offense is more talented than the 2015 squad that everyone said was stacked. Jamar Chase = AJ Green Tee Higgins > Marvin Jones Tyler Boyd > Mo Sanu Joe Mixon > Jeremy Hill Joe Burrow > Andy Dalton Uzomah < Eifert Defensively we've quietly stacked some very good players, but I still wouldn't say it tops 2015. But its getting there. This is a very talented team, IMO. You're right about this Green Bay game though. We'll get a good idea of what this team is really capable of here. We need to beat the good teams, too. ![]() RE: ZT is 5-2 in his last 7 games - Shake n Blake - 10-07-2021 (10-07-2021, 02:29 PM)rfaulk34 Wrote: Second time i've read this today.

I just try to look at the positives, that's all. And with back to back wins against pitt, and 5-2 in his last 7, I see ZT and his crew as more of an Ethereum than a DOGE. They are here to stay. Joe Burrow will have the pieces and they have a very young, aggressive defense for the first time in a long while.

I don't disagree with anything you said here. I simply look at the defense and I don't see any gaping holes. The LBs ALL are playing well....Wilson is a Pro Bowler (there, I said it), ADG is showing why we drafted him in year 2, and Pratt might be the most improved of the lot. Safeties? Bates and Bell? Not too many other tandems as good as these guys. DTs? Reader, Ogunjobi, Tupou, Hill with a rotational Sample? Yes, please. They may not have an Aaron Donald, but they have depth and are all relentless (there is that word again). Hendrickson and Hubbard may not have gaudy sack numbers, but their pressures are there and they are also stuffing the run. This will pay huge dividends if you can force Baker and Jackson to pass the ball. CB? Shit. Awuzie has played better CB than WJIII has in his career here except one year, and he cost half as much. Waynes is at least on the field and shaking off the rust, and with me leading the "Eli Apple Fan Clubs" march, they have solid depth in Apple, Darius Phillips, and Jalen Davis. They may not have the likes of a Myles Garrett, or some NFL star on defense, but they do have a lot of very solid, relentless guys that can stuff the run, cover, and rarely if ever get beat over the top.

Lets see if Logan Wilson is the next Burfict without the problems as well. |
