Realizing tonight's game is nothing more than a 3rd practice session with the Giants, is there anything you'd specifically like to see?
For me it's the diversity of the offense with Eifert and MLJ back in the lineup. Also, can't wait to get a look at the young TE's.
As for the defense, looking forward to watch the young corner's and safeties. Would also be interested in the DL but fully believe they'll be ridiculous regular season with the health and rotation back.

Agree on the things you listed, plus Geno and the run game.

I want to see everyone walk off the field under their own power in good health. Hopefully we don't have a night like the Redskins did last night.

I'm looking forward to seeing the LBs and WRs competing for the last 1-2 spots at those positions. I'm hoping at least one LB and WR stands out over the rest.
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!

This is certainly of paramount importance. Secondly I would like to see good execution and Dawson make some good plays. Also the rookie tackle and TEs should be interesting.

Don't care much if we look like crap and lose 52-3, I just want to see everyone healthy at the end of the game.

I know what I don't want to see... Someone lost for the year over a stupid exhibition game.

A healthy team.

The game.
:snark:
Out of market, don't think anything in my area has it on. And I've got to work till 7ish, so I doubt I can drive far enough to find it on anywhere.
But anyway, DL. That was our biggest problem on the field last year. I want to see Still and Clarke making some plays, MJ looking like old MJ and Carlos looking like Carlos. For one series, then take them all out so they're healthy.

Hoping everyone comes out of it healthy.
1. Like to see the TE's play well.
2. The DL start making some plays & developing a pecking order.
3. WR's & LB's backup positions solidified.
4. Clean snaps
5. Again nobody get hurt.

No injuries. Period. Nothing else matters. If they play well it doesn't matter despite what will be the obvious overreaction. If they play poorly it doesn't matter despite what will be the obvious overreaction.

I agree. I don't want Dalton near that field tonight because, if he gets hurt, this season is ******.

Our front 4 get some kind of push and pass rush. I can't wait to see Geno because everyone on the line feeds off of him.
Can't wait to see Eifert and Kroft just to get a taste of how good they'll be (and if Uzomah can show anything).
I want to see AJ catch a ball just to get me excited.
I want to see Hill with as few of carries as possible and him not drawing attention to himself so I can draft him late in the first round and then immediately get my 2nd round pick 
Also anxious to see if Derron Smith is the real deal (I know one preseason game isn't the greatest indicator, but some flash would be nice).

I agree with everyone who's saying no injuries. Plus see what some of the new guys can do.

1. Everyone walk out healthy
2. I hope AJ plays and takes his first pro snap so he can start his progression.
3. I am interested in the WR battles:
Little, Moore and Alford.
4. On defense, I want to see the rookie, Still and Lemur to see if they are progressing.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

1. The usual. How do they play in the trenches. Run the ball, stop the run. Protect the qb, rush the qb.
2. No injuries.
3. See how the draft picks and FA's perform
4. Could care less about the score.
