Why do I suck and not know how to properly embed tweets? Hmm, now it's showing. So odd.

Joey B-80-85% right now.
-hopes to add 5-10lbs
-did some post-practice throwing with Chase..."I think he's going to bring some explosiveness to our offense."
- only difference today from his regular rehab was throwing at moving targets (that is still a step forward IMO)
-praises trainer Nick Cosgray
- hopes to be a full go by camp (keep in mind that doc said no contact for 9 months)
- said he is throwing better than ever with more velocity
-Frank Pollack is going to do great things for us. You could hear his voice today.
-It’s about where we are going as a team. We are in a good place right now. We just have to show it on the field. We have the right people in the building.
- OL....We’ve got the right guys
Jesse Bates- on the high attendance on day 1 of OTA's: “A lot of new guys are very excited to reset the standard.”
All hopes turn to next year

Good to see perfect attendance. Means something when all of the pressure from outside NFLPA to not show up. It obviously has to translate to wins to matter, but this team seems like a pretty close knit group.
Great to see Joey B out there throwing.

Heck yeah. This is what happens when you bring in players who want to win.

We know this team has a long ways to go, but everything we're seeing about today makes being a Bengals fan fun.

I like when Joe says it felt good to throw to NFL caliber players & not the equipment guys. He chuckled a bit at his own comment.

Yep...and like what he said at the end as well, it's not just the o-line that has to get better, it's everyone, him included.

Agreed. He added, "We won 4 games." He was to the point and didn't shy away from admitting improvement was needed. I'd imagine his team mates view him as a leader.

In Zac's interview session he said there is no depth chart, no first team, or any such thing for the first day. He said it is only about players getting in individual work. He said the first team stuff, reps, etc. comes later.

Reporters have tweeted how Mixon was lining up at WR for reps. Zac clarified this is only happening to protect Burrow. Nobody "is allowed within 10 feet of him." Zac said they are being cautious.

Caution is for wimps! Actually, that makes sense.

This is a ridiculous comment.
What former players did not want to win?
