Don't get me wrong, I'd love a Murphy breakout.

Poor contains with his good Lamar has been today is gonna basically guarantee at LEAST a 21 point L

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

I might be mistaken, but I don't think I heard his name once. Heck, I heard Ossai TWICE which was unexpected.


EDIT: It looks like he didn't register a single stat?

[Nicomo Cosca]

Did he even play? I’d think you people would learn your lesson with these types of threads by now.

[Frank Booth]

To the surprise of nobody, op was absolutely incorrect

[Nicomo Cosca]

Meanwhile the Ravens use late 1st round picks on guys like Linderbaum.

What do him and Rankins actually do ?

People endlessly whine about Pollack, but dude that coaches the DL is literally stealing money at this point.

The front office deserves all the blame for Rankins. And Stone. I’m not even gonna mention the drafting

I’d probably put Tobin first in the blame game. Awful drafts and this free agency class is atrocious. Geno Stone might be worse than Nick Scott can’t tackle to safe his life and sucks in coverage too. Rankins not a good run player, paid him big money to pass rush and he’s been a ghost all season rushing the passer.

And we let Bates and reader go for these 2 clowns, because we needed the money for Higgins? They are afraid to spend. We can afford Burrow, chase, Tee. They just don’t want to get creative in the contracts and let some players go who aren’t worth their paper weight

Six picks after Murphy at 28th, Lions took Sam Laporta at 34 who was close to being a guarantee of a pick as one can get. Bengals had no tight end either, but took a flyer on Murphy instead. 

This to me will always be a huge miss unless Murphy actually does anything, and even then it better pro bowl level of play.

[WeezyBengal]

This was not the Myles Murphy game.

3 pressures and only 14 snaps. 14.

Yikes.

[THE PISTONS]

Murphy, Jenkins, Jackson...all limited reps. Didn't really show up.

Murphy just isn't that good. He may have a good play here and there, but he's consistently bad.

Essentially his rookie season in 2025.  

[Nicomo Cosca]

These were all listed as pressures for Myles Murphy on NextGenStats. Only had 6 pass rushes. Of the 3 other pass rushes there were 2 boots and 1 play where he was chipped. He won all 3 of his one on one opportunities. Can't explain why he's only getting 6 pass rushes in a game. pic.twitter.com/U2XSmvKjzq

Watching this clip is frustrating knowing Hubbard and Ossai will continue to out-snap him.

[Joelist]

Time to give Murphy the starters snaps instead of Hubbard.

[*ochocincos*]

Pretty underwhelming for a 1st round pick halfway through second year.
157 defensive snaps (37%) with 0 sacks, 1 QB hit, 4 total pressures according to PFR. That's it.
I know he missed the first month of the season due to injury, but still.

Another very underwhelming performance - 2 total pressures (1 sack, 1 hit) on 288 (60%) of defensive snaps on the season for a veteran who makes $12 mill this season. Sheldon Rankins.
Bengals can save $10.5 mill this coming offseason by releasing Rankins.
Cut him and invest that $$ elsewhere.
