I started to write a sarcastic post, like "Super Bowl here we come." But let's face it, Geno isn't coming off the couch to save the day. This week's signings are undoubtedly the best we can do. Gotta hope that Tupou can go and is healthy enough to be effective. And of course that Trey can get through the protocol. Encouraging signs so far on both.

Wonder what the signing at this point includes. Probably just a game day check for league minimum?

Solid player.

No one off the street was ever going to be the answer. Reader and Hill will start with Topou backing up Reader and Wren/Kerr/? backing up Hill. You probably have Shelvin up too because of Topou coming off injury and then Sample is your flex 6th DT. People have seriously over exaggerated how big a deal the loss of Larry was, also Daniels who hasn't really even played other than 18, to the impact of this game this week. This game will be won based off of Reader holding the point of attack and the LB's filling gaps. Hill to Larry is basically a lateral move so I seriously don't have any concerns there other than hopefully the back ups can give him a breather as needed.

Update: just pulled PFF ratings and they have Hill far superior, especially in run defense where he is 20 points better than Larry. BJ Hill is actually the 24th rated interior DL player league wide in run defense so it may actually benefit us to have him out there next to Reader for this game.

It has been driving me nuts listening to media talk about Mike Daniels as the same level of loss as Ogunjobi.  He played with the 2nd string week 18 and played Saturday but got hurt on the first series so it is not like he has contributed much this season other than on the scout team.  An important job for sure but his injury is a depth problem not a game-changing problem.  Taking a minute to look at the Bengals depth chart would have answered a lot of their questions

But they recognize his name, I get it,  but man it ignores BJ Hill and the season he has had.

Daniels played most of his career with the Packers, so of course the media consider him the bigger loss.

So I guess signing Kerr means #62 didn't impress them yesterday?

I think Trey will be good to go this weekend, which is good we really need his help on the edge.

We've lost like 4 DL in the past 2 weeks so we'll probably use both. 

RE: roster update 1/19 DT Zach Kerr signed - JaggedJimmyJay - 01-19-2022

Kerr’s credentials are very similar to Mike Daniels when he was initially signed. Great pickup under the circumstances.

RE: roster update 1/19 DT Zach Kerr signed - Bengalholic - 01-19-2022

Man, if Tupou and Shelvin are both active, with Reader and Kerr...that's a whole lotta beef.  Mellow

I know Ogunjobi had a good year but, if we could only sign one long term, I hope we pick Hill.

any relation to Steve Kerr? he can at least sink clutch Trey treys

RE: roster update 1/19 DT Zach Kerr signed - psychdoctor - 01-19-2022

Kerr is the anti-Henry player. May have some rust though.

Not bad, Kerr has at least had some production and started some games, needed the body.

RE: roster update 1/19 DT Zach Kerr signed - Shake n Blake - 01-19-2022

Probably about as good as we can expect. He's a big body with starting experience. A veteran who has been on some good teams.

He's certainly good enough to give Hill and Reader a breather.

Would've loved a Geno comeback, but who knows whats going on with that guy.

Truth. BJ Hill has had a very good season and arguably a better one than Ogunjobi. Daniels had one good game against the 
Browns here and the Steelers last year but that is about all he has shown as a Bengal honestly. Our starters with Reader and
Hill might be better than Reader and Ogunjobi and it isn't even a funny statement. I like the Kerry grab too.

If Trey is ready to go I am picking us to win this game. My biggest concern was the DT situation depth means. This is over 
now if Trey can help the pass rush when the Titans use their Play Action.

Slow down the run and keep the Titans out of the Endzone and we win 2 Playoff games in a row.

Yes, Mike Daniels is just a name at this point, damn good person too, but he isn't on par with BJ Hill by any means as a DT.
