Can't spell "dingleberries" maybe?

If he can be consistent I'd prefer him to Browning.   I doubt he can pull it off but I'll be watching with interest.

I hope Browning heals fast, we showed up big time last year and the team seemed to rally around him, nothing against Woodside but Browning we know we can win with.

You’re asking a calico cat helplessly stuck in a purrito whether he eats ass?

if the preseason game last week was not a fluke..then Woodside is the better quarterback..totally  different team when he was in..I think we will see more of him this week

Kind of weird timing right before the season and all with Gunter getting at least half a Sack and looking good.

Wish him the best, man we need an End for sure now. I liked Gunter, damn.

Woodside is going to have to play like that or better for the rest of the Preseason to prove it isn't a fluke. Browning has played well against 
NFL starters. Don't get me wrong, I liked what I saw of Woodside but one quarter in a Preseason game against 3rd and 4th stringers doesn't
tell you much. When a backup QB comes in and leads your team to a 4-3 record in the regular season that tells you something.

Crazy he is 25 and willing to walk away from a job playing a game that would be paying him almost $1,000,000 for one year of work.

Strange that’s the second DE recently drafted by us to retire at a young age.

[jj22]

Hate to hear. Gunter seemed like he was coming along. Opens up a spot for a 5th DT.

[Luvnit2]

This is a strange decision. I can only speculate it is mental or issues with his family. He had one of the better games for our back up DE group.

I wish him well; I am sure not easy to walk away from 1 million dollars.

He has a degree in economics. Maybe he was content with his ~$1.6M from his rookie contract and decided the wear and tear wasn’t worth it? Not a bad move for a seventh rounder on a one year contract. Just move into the workforce and save your body. Just my guess.

How many years until he' eligible for Canton?

Joking aside; I wish dude the best

I expected more after he balled out as a starter. What happened? Are my expectations too high?

When looking at pre season QB's you have to realize they are not playing with the ones. What looks like ass QG play is often due to other players not being in position. That's why in years past when everyone said he was horrible, I always said I wanted to see what he could do with the ones.

I like Woodside so don't get me wrong. He played at Anderson County  KY (where my kids went to school) and then at Frankfort HS, so I've been watching him since his High School days. But anyone that thinks he's as good as Browning simply isn't paying attention. He had some nice passes Saturday..... against 3's and 4's and never will bes..... his touchdown pass to Burton was a nice pass, but is was a throw any NFL QB could make. Burton plain humiliated that defender with his first move.

That's fair.

Sounds like a rough day of practice.

Notes from practice

Two #Bengals carted off wet field in air casts — Chris Evans and D’Ante Smith

Tee Higgins 4 drops. Tons off other drops.

Burrow picked off 3 times

Charlie Jones participated in indys, STs

Cody Ford replaced Trent Brown at RT midway thru

——

#Bears-Bengals joint practice is over. It POURED at times.

#Bengals suffered two bad injuries that were tough to see. RB Chris Evans and OT D’Ante Smith both needed aircasts and were carted off.

I watched Burrow vs Bears and the D won the day. Nothing happening downfield as the Bears’ secondary had things shut down. Jaylon Johnson was especially impressive and Kevin Byard had an awesome diving interception. CIN did pop a couple decent runs.

@NicholasMoreano
has you covered on Caleb vs the Bengals.

___

#Bears practice is over. Looked like 2 serious injuries for the #Bengals. OT D’Ante Smith and RB Chris Evans required air casts for leg injuries and were carted off. Uncertain if wet conditions contributed to injuries.

—-
Bears and Bengals have completed their practice after two-plus hours in the rain. Cincinnati lost RB Chris Evans and OT D’Ante Smith to apparent serious leg injuries, as both were carted off. It was spirited action, though without any fights.
