needing a lot of time and practice does not translate to playing in 10 days..unless you meant the second Steeler game

It seems both must be low on the depth chart.

And so we have another blown first round pick...since AJ Green our track record on getting real players out of the first is a bit sketchy and getting them on the field contributing in their rookie years (because your first round pick should be an immediate contributor) is abysmal.
Dennard has not been very good at all the very little we see of him, we are only just now seeing a little of WJIII, Eifert has had one season where he actually played and produced, Og is one of the biggest first round busts in Bengal history, Big Z was allowed to walk and now Ross looks like Eifert the second. That leaves Dre who is servicable but again who did not contribute in his rookie season.

The small injury prone defensive end that teams dropped on their draft board is working out pretty well.
I say let's see what happens before writing him off 5 games into his rookie season...since he does have at least 4 more seasons besides this one in Cincy....

I think Marv needs a nice cup of shut the hell up...
Just stay out of it and let his OC decide how and when to use him. I am telling you that just having him line up and run some deep routes changes the way a team will defend us, especially the steelers. The one thing they won't do is allow a big play. They design everything against that. Two safeties deep means lots of green space for the likes of Kroft/Uzo, Gio, Mixon, Boyd (when is that guy going to show up?), etc.
Oops...it appears Boyd is injured...so I guess not anytime soon.
Cody Core? You out there?

Marvin is weak. Got to put Ross in at Pittsburgh. Don't have to throw at him, just get him in there and let's see if he can create space.

They are rookies and they dont play under Marvin, they must be benched for 16 games.....this is Marvins #1 rule.........except when your absolute stud aka AJ Green, "Ginger Genius" or Carl "The QB Killa" Lawson

No, injured player who missed most of camps and a bunch of preseason so needs more time to catch up pick.

Now come on, Beaker....
The Bengals has won two straight and are back in the hunt. Eifert is injured, but the team seems to be on the ascent. There has to be something to second guess and complain about as an absolute truth after 5 weeks of the season.
