Maybe we're talking Week 8 about whether Irv Smith should stick around after this year, and if so what will/should that contract look like?
Bringing this up again because I remembered posting it.
By the time we go against the next opponent, it will be Week 8.
Irv Smith to-date:
6 receptions
32 yards
5.3 YPR
0 TDs
Not only would I think most people would say they DON'T want Irv Smith back next year, but many may think it'd be worthwhile to make a trade for a TE by the trade deadline so they can actually get some production out of a TE this season.
Gesicki (15 rec, 144 yards, 9.6 YPR in 6 games) might be someone I'm calling to see about.
Patriots are already in the hole and looking like they won't be able to get out.
Offsetting Gesicki can help in their rebuild.
Some might say Ertz or Hurst, but I dunno if the Bengals would want to take on the remainder of those contracts.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
