(Preseason Week 1) ***Cardinals @ Bengals- GameDay Thread***

[samhain]

I think Zac and staff take the preseason about as seriously as the Pro bowl.

[samhain]

And yes, sign me up for a Spain return.

Volson seems to look good. i guess playing against backups to backups. But still.

They complimented the opposition. That is not permissible for BENGALS announcers.

I mean damn, Prince and Adeniji looked shitty VS backups so any li am playing good is a plus to me.

[Bengalstripes9]

Well, our backup oline doesn’t look too good. Hopefully we can stay healthy. Probably the most concerning is the backup situation at tackle.

Otherwise evans and Dax looked great.

Anthony Munoz compliments everyone. He once said he's the worst athlete in his family

I said that out loud tonight: I don't think he makes the roster at all, at this point.

[Joelist]

Hopefully we see Moss and Adeniji at minimum get cut after this.

He's getting beaten a lot in pass pro. I did see him get to the 2nd level in one run

[Joelist]

Meanwhile AZs third string OL gets push with no problem on our "defense".

Gaillard has looked ok at RG and C.  T has been bad.  

[Bengalion]

Number 41 made a couple of good plays.

[jj22]

I knew he'd bobble it.

[Joelist]

Well that was not the way for Pooka to earn a spot...

Looks like the perfect tackle.  Does not play like the perfect tackle.  He lacks something mental.

[Whatever]

I'm not a preseason alarmist, but I do think we need to look at bringing in a vet backup OT.  None of our guys have looked even serviceable against AZ's backups.

to be fair D'Ante Smith is the main tackle back up and he was out tonite

The announcing crew is always terrible but it’s been the same great terrible for years! How does anyone not like how positive Munoz is? I love when they were gushing over Mixon and the camera man is on Mike Hilton. Not once, but twice. Then I believe they interview Hilton later to make up for their F-up. I love preseason games! I miss CJ clowning around during the interviews.
