All of the moves combined, show that the Bengals are serious about building a top defense, aimed at stopping the run, flushing the passes to the outside, and defending the perimeter with sure tacklers.  For a top level NT, that is a lot to fall in love with.

The Bengals also drafted the top QB to come out in years, have an OL that seemed to be getting on it's feet down the stretch last season, and have made plenty of additions to force competition, let alone the much anticipated arrival of Jonah Williams.

Despite the entire Covid virus putting a damper on 2020 in most every aspect of life, I'm still stoked to see the Bengals take shape this season.  This is a team that is being built, a team built from the inside out.

I was with you until you brought up the OL as a positive...

I’m excited too though. And maybe I’m being unfair, and Reader genuinely picked us for more reasons other than money. I’m not trying to come off like I’m knocking him btw. Even if it is just generic player speak, it’s better than what we’re hearing out of Waynes, that’s for sure.
