“He’s really going after it. He wants it. He looks good,” said Guenther of the hope that Burfict’s micro fracture knee surgery heals well enough for him to start the opener.
Getting one of the best DTs in the league back to form and one of the best LBs in the league back on the field is going to be huge for our D.
Getting Geno back to form and getting MJ back in the lineup, where he's always been great against the run, which also pushes Gilberry back into a rotation, is going to be huge for the D. It all starts up front and that's where the Bengals were lacking big time last year. Getting a healthy Burfict would be like extra icing on the cake.
