ESPN displaying their knowledge again - Clark W Griswold - 07-21-2025
They ranked roster talent and the Bengals came out 9th - not bad.
However, they show the projected starting guards as Ford and Volson.
Never know what can happen but they went 0 for 2 on the guards.
That’s why people rag on espn. They get basic things wrong and several reporters contributed to this.
Also surprised they had Denver that high and the 49ers at 10…

Get used to it. Denver is the hot pick this year for everyone. I don't see it.

ESPN used to be a pretty good sports outlet. They've deteriorated into the shock jock realm, ignore them.

Well they are a division of Disney, fantasy has always been their forte.

Considering where we are in the season, that guess is as good as any

Not necessarily specific to ESPN, but my favorite thing from “mainstream” sports media is how Joe Burrow supposedly gets carried by the talent around him.
Then every once in a while you’ll see pro bowler and All Pro accolade numbers by each team and it’s quite the disparity compared to the darlings.
But yeah, ESPN is absolute garbage and gets no viewership out of me unless it happens to be a game I want to watch.

It is interesting to me they say we have the 9th best roster and 1 or 2 of the OG's may be better than the starters listed.
Also interesting as many fans say we have the worst FO in football so how the jeck does anyone project our roster top 10?
