When.

He was in and out of the lineup for a bunch of different reasons.  Which time are you talking about?

You fail to see the difference between "proving my point", and "disproving an absolute".

I did not use Gronk's recovery to prove that Carman WILL be fine.

I used Gronk's recovery to prove that Carman COULD be fine.

The time he missed the Super Bowl.

Ereck Flowers or Spain are better at OG but can play OT in a pinch.

I like the room overall from where we were. But hard not to agree with this.

I’m fine with keeping Prince for OT depth. Fred Johnson is gone, and D’Ante Smith is an unknown at this point. Adeniji is the one guy I hope doesn’t make the final 53.

Maybe a guy who could not work out 100% because he was recovering from back surgery?

Link? Everything I’ve read is his back problems started with the Jets game.

Jackson Carman had offseason back surgery; still was Bengals’ top target coming into Day 2 - Cincy Jungle

Prince allowed 3 sacks on just 224 pass block snaps played in the regular season.
Add 2 more sacks in the postseason with just 171 pass block snaps.
Totaling 5 sacks on 395 pass block snaps.

His PFF pass block grade was 49.5 in regular season, 31.8 in postseason.

Dude shouldn't be on the team if the Bengals are trying to prioritize pass blocking.

Jackson Carman played in the Super Bowl.

Where are you coming up with this story?

Thanks but from what I’ve been told and other comments the team was disappointed he came in out of shape.

Where there's smoke there's fire. And there's a helluva lot of smoke around him. Did he show up to voluntary workouts? I think he's done on this team and they're just trying to figure out how to announce it.

I think this is crazy speculation from an outsider that has no intimate knowledge of the situation. If he was done on this team it would stand to reason that they would have looked to invest in the O line a bit more than they did. There is not a helluva lot of smoke around him, again just spin doctoring of the current situation.

Maybe it is old news because there was nothing to it. What you left out of your sentencing of him was how old the story was to begin with.

I’m all for bringing in someone better, but I don’t think that’s happening. They seem pretty set with this group. Giving out Spain’s # probably all but guarantees he’s not coming back.

Again, I’m not arguing for Prince - so much as I’m arguing against Adeniji. If we have to keep one of them I’d prefer the former.

Came in where and when out of shape?

It was reported he had a back injury and could not start because if it.  There are plenty of reports about this.

Yes I know all about that.  Like I said before he had been in and out of the lineup for this and other reasons all year.

What I am asking about is your claim that the Bengal doctors cleared him when they should not have.

Jackson Carman has told reporters that his back bothered him all season.  If his back was a problem then obviously he was cleared to early.

I’m pretty sure they have moved on from Spain. As somebody pointed out in another thread, his number has already been assigned to another player, Volson I think.

This is the best I’ve felt about the o line in several years. There are, and will be options out there if reinforcements are needed. I would prefer a veteran brought in at some point for depth but the season can’t start soon enough. Who Dey!
