There are some good players on this team.

There's definitely higher end talent. We have to bring up the low quality starters to atleast average and we'll be much better.
The offensive line is going to be weird to see how they address it. It's pass blocking and run blocking better...atleast on paper. And we're still losing. Like seems obvious that they'd replace Hart, right? He's actually been playing better the last few games.
A guy like Hopkins actually declined recently after starting the year great. (Maybe he isn't as good in the new scheme?)
Miller is out with a concussion.
Price just seems lost in either scheme. MJ seems to be playing a little better.

Joe mixon is going to be expensive on his next contract but I think he deserves it. I love his attitude and his fire and he's so thoughtful with fans.

Did Mike Brown take a chance and sign Joe Mixon? (not a question for you)
How did that work out?
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.

11 or 12 mil would be my guess but the Bengals have the cap space to pull it off if they get a QB on a rookie contract. Need to do it this offseason so they can spread a 3 or 4 year extension over an a 4 or 5 year period.

If we can add a QB like Burrow that teams will have to respect our offense should be a lot better next year. Taylor just needs to get better at calling plays. Especially in the red zone.
#28 has been one of the only bright spots during this miserable season. Just wanted to give him some props.
Definitely beast mode today. I will admit when the Browns scored late I thought "here we go again" but that last drive was a thing of beauty.

Yea...it worked out. Many thought Joe was a 1st round talent and even the best running back in that draft. Of course we all know why Joe's stock dropped and well when Mike Brown can get 1st round talent for 2nd round prices; who doesn't like a bargain?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I certainly will never pick a fight in a phone booth with Joe..

Seeing a guy wearing the number 28 run like a man possessed for a team that ended the year at 2-14 really brought back some fond memories.

Man I loved what he did for that kid. Youthful indiscretion aside, this guy is so damn easy to root for.

You just watched a win over a division rival. Don’t always look at the negative.

You've had a sad and/or twisted and/or depraved life if those are your fond memories. PLEASE do not tell us about the unpleasant memories!

Mixon is awesome...so was Corey Dillon. I still don't see how I'm being negative by handing it to RBs who wear #28 and run their asses off even though they are playing for god-awful teams.
Am I being negative because I'm comparing him to a guy who wanted out of here? Or is even mentioning the fact that we are 2-14 and the worst team in the league considered negative?
