At least, it's my dream. 

Separation doesn't mean shit. Catching the ball is all that matters.

You need some separation otherwise YAC winds up really low.

I think Ellis has done well

Finley!!!!!!!!!! Maybe that 4th round was well worth it. Who gets credit for that pick? Zac? Callahan? Brown? TObin?

Along with Tate and Sample. The D rebounded, as did Phillps on special teams.

Still plenty of to work on and clean up, but the team has potential. The depth looks better then in recent years.

Finley is def better than McCarron. But right now, that should only give people peace about if QB14 goes down. Finley is not the Bengals best option behind center this year.

Too bad Finley isn't 21. This might be the ceiling and not the floor. My only concern. Other than that he's the surprise of preseason.

Finley, Tate, Ellis, Sample all having good games.

74 Keaton Sunderland doesn't look too terrible.

Gotcha. I wouldn't worry about it.

Looks like Tate is going to be our #3 WR. I'm stoked.

[*psychdoctor*]

I'm disappointed in Wren thus far

I think the Bengals rookie quarterback looks better than the Redskins rookie I'm so glad the Bengals didn't take him in round one in the last NFL draft.

[Joelist]

While we are giving out kudos Price deserves a big one. The difference in the interior blocking as soon as he stepped out there is immediate and very positive.

[*bengalfan74*]

Damn Driskel in, I wanted to see Dolegalalaala

Yep. Haskins looks like he needs a lot of work.

Last year he was a preseason warrior too..

Willis with a great catch regardless of outcome

[*bfine32*]

What is this moving around in the pocket BS I'm seeing from this #5. I thought the only way to avoid a sack was to throw it in .001 milliseconds
