I think in order to appease Bengals fans, they should make a swimsuit edition 2018-the end of Merv's contract calendar featuring only Bengals' QBs' wives.

She is smoking hot !
Unlike the popular opinion have always felt that Driskel would be a adequate back up QB if we traded AJM.
Know he runs more than most QB's but that is because he can. Be a change of pace for defenses to adjust to if Dalton got hurt and he had to fill in as well.
No, did not know much of what you posted. Thanks for sharing.

His pre-season was encouraging, granted against players who didn't make NFL rosters.
I would be happy if they give him an open shot as the #2 QB if they trade McCarron.

Driskel?
“He’s a specimen of an athlete,” said George Iloka, who has seen plenty of that as the Bengals starting safety for the last five years. “I’ve seen him dunk between his legs 360 (degrees), pause in mid-air and dunk it off a vertical.”
“He put the ball between his legs and put the ball behind his back and dunked it one hand,” Iloka said. “It was just so effortless.”

Better do it before McCarron is traded.
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. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

When the local Bengals radio guys are talking about drafting a guy to be the backup for when McCarron's gone I'm always like.... They have strong backup in Driskel. I like him and he is different than AD skillset wise, which is intriguing.

Lucky guy and no i didn't know all of this. Pretty cool. He outplayed AJM last Preseason, i like Driskell as our backup over AJM.
Hope we can get something for AJM.

I honestly believe that AJMc is pretty average...hence why it was so frustrating that the Browns screwed up the trade (on purpose)
If AJMc does go then I agree Driskel is in an interesting back up option and gives us something different. I have a feeling they may draft a QB late this year though..

Same boat.
I wouldn't want Macaroni on my team in any situation.

I was all for trading AJ prior to last season and letting Driskel be the back-up. I still think he has a high ceiling and would be interested to see what he can do in the Pre-season against better competition.

Well I am not saying he will be as good as Steve Young was. His style just reminds me of him.
