We sure do need him.  But coming off a shoulder injury is rough for a DT. Guess he'll have to pick up G's and throw them into QB's with his other arm.

I think I am done following Atkins updates until I see him on the field, in uniform, on game day.

Until then this is feeling a little too much like...

...probably would be less of an issue if it doesn't follow hot on the heels of AJ Green's 2019 season.

I hope he makes it back soon and can really contribute......but I'm not counting on it,

I could post a long list of players that returned when they were supposed to, but I can't really disagree with your point.

Green's situation last year was unlike any I have ever seen.  He was supposedly week to week for four months.  Plus he was one of the absolute best players on the team.  None of us can help but let that influence our opinion on what is happening with Geno.

If he actually suits up and plays honestly I'm not expecting much of an impact. I fear he is in the "AJ Green decline " part of his career. He is no game wrecker like Aaron Donald.

Is everyone's memory terrible or is everyone just being negative?

Geno's been practicing in some capacity (rehab field 2 weeks ago, team drills last week) for 2 of the 4 weeks of the season. AJ didn't step foot on any field until like week 12 or something.

Completely not the same thing.

Beyond-laughable and false; he isn't the Geno of 2012, but he's still a top 5 UT in this league and until he has a decline across the board in the numbers that are his bread and butter, he's still elite.

He’s also a year older, coming off a shoulder injury and hasn’t played in a real game since last year. I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of rust Redmond showed, hopefully Geno doesn’t show any either.

"The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver practiced in pads on Thursday. Green was a limited participant. He went through individual drills with full pads on. It was the first time Green’s been in full pads during media availability at practice."

My memory defiantly sucks.  The only reason I even looked it up was because I was trying to remember when it was last year that Zac supposedly said AJ was going to play (Hobson posted it on Twitter) only for it to be untrue like a few hours later.  I thought that was earlier in the season but it was in November.

Sure would be nice to get him back. Add him in with Reader, Covington, and Andrew Brown and we are right back on track at DT.

If he can't, I am just very glad that Marshall Yanda finally retired.  That guy seemed to move Bengals like raking leaves...with ease.  

RE: Geno has a chance to play Sunday - CJD - 10-06-2020

I sure hope so. The last couple weeks we've gotten similar hopes though, based on reports of him rejoining the practice field etc.

RE: Geno has a chance to play Sunday - ochocincos - 10-06-2020

Bengals could use him, as this next stretch of 5 games should be menacing.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they lost every one, even with their improvement last week, but Atkins back should improve their chances to win.

Well, good news is his body should be fresh playing against OL who have 4 games of wear and tear on them in 2020.

I hope he is 100% when he comes back because if he is healthy and fresh, he could cause major issues and disruptions. If not, he will be a waste of space and we already have DL wasting space.

RE: Geno has a chance to play Sunday - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 10-06-2020

Need to see Geno next to Reader, could be the best DT duo if Geno hasn't fell off any.

RE: Geno has a chance to play Sunday - Bengalholic - 10-09-2020

Geno will play Sunday.
