Technical Bowl...My opinions and the grades they recieved for the bye week:
Brought in kickers....none signed. (+3 Bye)
Gilberry signed. (+7 Bengals)
Ravens sign Chris Lewis-Harris (+3 Bye)
At the half: Bengals 7 Bye 6
Williams fined...twice (+7 Bye)
Flowers and Kirkpatrick fined. (+7 Bye)
William Jackson III says he's ready...Bengals are you? (+3 Bengals)
Other than the usual fluff on a bye week, these situations seemed like the important issues.
Bengals: 10
Bye: 20
Conservative play once again will take a backseat to the fans as there has been pretty glaring problems at many positions at the mid-point of the season.
IMO, a playoff caliber team will not survey the situation half way through the season, know the problems and do very little (or in this case nothing) to fix the team.
Tackling on the defensive side of the ball is horrible. Ogbuehi has been bad...thank goodness Bodine has been better. Gilberry being back to me is moot. Clarke is better and needs more time. Denard can only get better, at least he tackles better than Williams. Adam Jones to S, and he's done recieving punts/kicks...that time might be lost.
