The change at OC from Hue to Zampese was also labeled a shift from "too cute" to "dumbed back" so excuse me for finding that troubling.

The offense at least worked and was GOOD under Hue though.

With Green, Boyd, a healthy Eifert, Joe Mixon and hopefully a muchly improve Ross to go with a muchly improved O-line. It is possible, we already had most of the skill players here. With Taylor, Callahan, Jonah, Sample, Miller all added could look like night and day from last season.
Signed, yes.
Not for $10 mil a year.

I'm kind of thinking that Boyd may be wrong about the Bengals having the best offense in the NFL this year.

There is no "healthy" in the NFL, someone or most will be "injured" and affect the team. The better the talent you have overall, the better a team u will be. we only have the best 4 out of 7 out there, in D or O. That's where the other teams kick our bu**.

They're just stringing em along so the Bengals offense can finally spring the trap on every team in the league. Yup, they're lulling them to sleep and once they're all in bed taking long naps the Bengals will run away with it all..
I'm not suggesting they'll actually do this in actual games though.. No, no, no... They're gonna run away at night when everyone is sleeping only to never return..

I am kind of thinking I have never seen a member so thrilled about the Bengals sucking in order to say he was right.
Seriously, how many of these ancient threads do you have bookmarked?

I flipped a coin. Heads was start a bunch of posts rationalizing how we should be 3-1 with a few breaks. Tails was my current route in posting about reality.
Tails it was. Complain about fate...not me.

Just proving how crazy some of you are , but will never admit it. After Bengals win against Arizona , “ bengals have a chance to win out and go 12-4 this year”.
Repost in 3 months , “ why do you have to repost threads”.
Good times.

Haha. In all seriousness, this team better beat Arizona. They're equally as bad as us.

1) I am not going to get on a player for being positive
2.) We're missing our two starting Tackles and top WR. Would like to see this unit fully healthy before I say they can't be good.

We're not missing 2 starting Tackles. Hart was penciled in as RT from the start.
Glenn was going to compete for Guard. We're missing Williams.
Yes - AJ Green is a huge loss.

If Glenn & Williams are healthy they would be the Tackles right now.
