Whats the deal with Seibert kicking and not Bullock? Is he injured or is this a try out for Seibert?
I got a little chuckle on Bengals website, it lists both these guys at 5-9 and about 210Lbs
Yea, maybe Seibert is...Id guess Bullock is at about 230#

Troy and Katie monitor the boards and desperately wanted to hear us ***** about a different kicker for a change.

Maybe because Fat Randy was shocking at his kicking lately and needed benched

Just a late season try out. I'd say the Bengals are still keeping their options open on a permanent kicker.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Dehner mentioned that Bullock will not be re-signed. Looks like Siebert will be competing with someone else next offseason.

Fat Randy ate Mike Browns "Special Wednesday Lunch" and was benched as a result. What was that special lunch you ask? Why it was Marvin Lewis weekly go by..... Tuna on rye.

Bullock is a choke artist.... But Seibert is not the answer.

Seibert didn't crumble when he had to get those points in. Bullock couldn't get it done since game 1. Kickers SHOULD be replace every 2 yrs by default.

Well I am in Fat Randy's camp. I don't mind them upgrading, but Siebert ain't an upgrade.

they screwed the pooch yrs ago by letting the guy (Jake Elliot) they drafted thats now in Philly go. Randy edged him out that yr for the starting job.
He turned out to be good kicker for Philly.

I don’t think the Ravens would be on board with this

No he didn't. In fact he is one of the worst kickers in the league this year at just 73.7% on FGs and 91.7 on XPs.
Bullocks 5 year AVERAGE with the Bengals is 84.9% on FG and 95.4% on XPs. In Elliott's entire career he has not had a SINGLE SEASON where he hit 84.9% of his FGs or 95.4% of his XPs

Seibert's basically playing for a job, as he has 2 more years on his contract. However, his contract has 0 dead cap.
Also looks like the team is ready to move on from Bullock too.
Hopefully, we see a new K with the Bengals next year.
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.

No worries - the top K in the draft will be available in the first round even if we win and pick 12th.

I would be interested to see the stats on clutch kicks made...
I doubt Ellliot ever pulled a fake cramp after missing a kick my daughter would make.

They only screwed the pooch if by "screwing the pooch" you mean they gave the job to the guy who won the kicking competition in camp. If giving the best guy the position is "screwing the pooch" then I guess you're right.

It was not a fake. Before missing that kick Bullock was 5 of 6 in the final 2 minutes of a game for the Bengals.
Bullock is also 16-19 in the final 2 minutes of the first half as a Bengal with the misses coming from 53, 53, and 58.

Have too many needs to waste a pick on a K unless we trade back to accumulate more picks.
K's are also cheap, so I think one should be picked up in FA.
