Marvin didn't expect Rich Braham to miss more than 3 weeks with a bruised shin. Who knew that in Marvin Land that a bruise really means broken into a million pieces!
Remember when Eifert was going to be fine a few weeks after the pro bowl? And then might miss some of camp? And now some of the season?
I like that the Bengals are savvy enough to not expose their info for public consumption. Believing them on injuries would be like shaking their hand while they piss down your leg. I'm fine knowing that's the case.... I'm just not going to shake with them on it.
In no way did I say you have to believe everything they say about injured players. I do enjoy how everybody points out all of the bad experiences the players have had with injuries but completely ignore all of the ones that played out as planned and/or ahead of schedule. The point I was trying to make is that there is no reason to freak out right now.
And ticket sales are an entirely different issue. If you had Green or Dalton hurt I suppose you could make the argument, but I just don't see it here.
