I liked that he called him "one of my mentors"

Have you even checked his height/weight vs Bodine? 

[HarleyDog]

OMG, Greg and Sheila broke up?

Billy Price 6'4" 305lbs.  Russell Bodine 6'3" 310lbs. So about 1 inch difference and 3 lbs difference.

[jfkbengals]

Eject him

So what you're saying is they are the exact same player? 

[Nicomo Cosca]

Tez would get half a season for that hit...

[*bengalfan74*]

That's the kinda play you hate to see late in a preseason game !

[HarleyDog]

Don't think it was intentional. But yes, bad to see.

No, I said Price will be good and worth the 1st round pick.  I'm not sure what you are getting at with their measurements.  You do know there is a lot more to being a great player than measurements? JaMarcus Russell had great measurements for a QB, amazing arm strength etc and you know where that got him.

[jfkbengals]

That was dumb.

Take a knee there...

I guess we just disagree. I don't think a great run game is all inclusive to opening up just the passing game. I think a team that can throw for 300 yards a game on average will also open up the running game eventually especially if the team is great in the redzone scoring TD's,


I want a great running game too, we all do, but I have seen many teams unable to run for 3 quarters, but kept moving the chains in the passing game and then the other team's DL is gassed and they run for 50 yards against them in 4th quarter
