Andrew Billings - lone bengal - 10-01-2019
I’m as negative as it gets when it comes to the Bengals but I need to give a quick shout out to Andrew Billings. The kid has been playing great, he’s been making tackles behind the line of scrimmage and winning his matchups consistently. Billings has been one of the lone bright spots for me when watching this team similar to Tyler Boyd’s development last season in a lost year. He’s finally living up to his run stuffing reputation and we should work on resigning him. Only if we could put a half decent linebacker behind him. Preston Brown couldn’t fill a hole to safe his life he just plays peekaboo behind the offensive line and is awful.

Yeah he played well, thought Hopkins did as well. Hubbard did OK.
Vigil was great! /s
RE: Andrew Billings - Nicomo Cosca - 10-01-2019
Big man is playing well. Him and Hubbard have stood out to me more than Geno and Dunlap so far.
RE: Andrew Billings - J24 - 10-01-2019
Billings is a top 10 nose tackle in this league and a young guy. Unfortunately it doesn't look like he is in the Bengals future with the drafting of Wren and Glasgow still being here.

I hope the Vigil line was Sarcasm.

I wasnt a fan of the Geno extension last year, and doubt I ever will be. This is the first year of his 4 year extension he got, and the next 3 seasons he will have a cap hit between 14.2, 14.8, and 16 million per season. And he will be 32,33, and 34 years old in those seasons.
I appreciate the great player Geno was for us, but Bengals paying him major money in the twilight of his career is a mistake imo.
If the Bengals are entering a rebuild mode, they need to shop Geno and that contract around to free up money for elsewhere, mainly free agent o-lineman.

RE: Andrew Billings - Wyche'sWarrior - 10-01-2019
Gotta agree....shout out to Trey Hopkins too.
RE: Andrew Billings - Goalpost - 10-01-2019
Billings got hurt late in the game. Not sure if he went back in.
RE: Andrew Billings - THE PISTONS - 10-01-2019
Billings and Atkins were bright spots. About the only ones.
I know Geno catches a lot of flack, but he's playing at a high level. He just gets double-teamed a lot, but he still gets pressure.

Seems he came back in, they pulled him after the personal foul, which I thought was a BS call. Zac did too.

We’ll see what happens I feel like Wren is more of a raw project with upside. People drool over his size and athleticism but he’s a one year starter in college who needs a lot of work. I like Glasgow a lot but see him more as a good rotational DT then a starter.

Admit the truth you dont like Vigil cause you want the rat tail like him? It takes a special guy to pull off the rat tail look!
Dont knock it..its coming back in 2020 with a vengeance!

I didn't like Wren either; thought Billings showed enough last season to earn a contract extension. Instead of being replaced.

He ran down a ball carrier from behind near the goalline. I've seen him hustling downfield or sideline to sideline multiple times this season. Billings and Hubbard are always playing with high effort and no quit which is good to see from young talented players.
RE: Andrew Billings - PhilHos - 10-01-2019
Speaking of Billings, can someone explain what specific rule he supposedly broke when he was in that little scuffle and why the Steeler player was not also called for a foul?

didn't he just get hurt last night
RE: Andrew Billings - WhodeyRay - 10-01-2019
Big guy is looking good. He is all over the place. The play he got hurt on he was way down the field to help make the tackle. Love watching Billings and Hubbard. They have great motors.

I think it has something to do with team colors!
