Even James Rapien on twitter thinks we need too and says we are just missing a piece on offense.

Im not waiting on john ross to come through anymore,he might be back for the Saints who knows. But the Bengals need to be proactive and make a move. Winning teams do this,philly would, the pats would,the steelers would. Everyone except us probably. But im praying to god i hear something. We need to go get that tight end cook or get Dez or get auden tate up on the roster and playing him. We need that 3rd guy. We cant depend on two guys and Mixon.

And you guys will disagree but i think having Erickson is hurting us. He is no threat on the outside,and hes an ok returner but hes not going to run td's back. I want Darius Phillips returning. I want someone good on the opposite of green. Freak it go get Dez if you aint going to use Tate,or atleast just use Malone.

Defensively im not too worried,its a offensive league. We just have to do some tweaks,and its really the scheme Austin is running also. No team is holding anyone 10 or under now adays. Youve got to be able to put up a lot of points. They need to fix the linebackers, we have trouble stopping the run and thats where it starts for us. I dont know if Tez will be Tez this year or can be counted on unfortunetly. I want them to play jefferson and bring up brandon bell instead of hardy nickerson, we will get vigil back. I do like kirk but he gets picked on even by the refs. I liked what i saw out of russell today he seems fast and focused out there. Safety i think we need to replace williams ,maybe have him cover tight ends and be a nickle linebacker,he had that role before. I dont know who to put in his spot,maybe try to get reggie nelson back from the raiders,let him retire a bengal with a playoff win.. Defensive Line i think is good, i like our guys except Michael Johnson. Hes kind of a liability.

If the front office does nothing and the coaches make no changes, im not going to be too excited for the rest of the year. Because i know whats coming. Itll come down to the wire and the steelers will end up beating us the last game and demoralizing us. They got homefield and the refs. We need big changes to happen to beat all of that.. but anyways i understand the fans frustration but at the same time we cant even sell out the stadium and our fans are very negative. The bengals need to show they want to win this week at trade deadline. If we make no moves i expect to lose to the saints. And they deserve it for not trying. But i really want to see them win big this year. I actually feel hurt and emotional that they wouldnt even try anything new. Please for the love of god make moves bengals make moves. Who dey

We are missing 2 starting LB's and have missed them most of the year. I do think Vigil was looking a lot better, Burfict has not played well. The missed tackles by our team is a major problem that has to be fixed, it started in 2017 and has gotten worse.

The offense will be helped by a healthy Gio and a heathy Price.

I do agree, it would be great to see us go after a D. Jackson type WR or J. Cook TE on offense. If not a road grading guard to open up running lanes. Or a Jamie Collins type LB on defense.


I like 5-3 versus 3-5, we have a shot at getting a playoff spot or win our division (only down .5 games). We have seen the darlings in October lose in January, so get in and hope the team steps up, but have to get in first.

If the Raiders look to shop Cook, that would be better than DJax.....just due to the fact we are running out of TEs.

At LB, I'd look for a guy that can cover......maybe Buchannon out of ARZ, or someone with that line of skills.

And that was our supposed to be superbowl team. Look at the pats last year, bad defense, you can say the same about pittsburgh who won a playoff game last year.

I get offenses are passing the ball around a lot but when you intentionally drop LBers 15 yds into coverage and the offense needs 8 yds for a 1st, there is something fundamentally wrong. We can't stop anyone from running on us, that's old school, to many missed tackles again yesterday. That is why I say you should be worried about the Defense.

MARVIN LEWIS IS A MOLE...that is the only thing I can think of... Marvin Lewis is in place to make sure the Benglas do not win so the darlings of the league. (Steelers, Patriots) can keep bringing that revenue in... anybody that don't feel this way is slow az fu**
