I don’t buy it. It doesn’t go along with what he previously said about rookie DB’s not getting much playing time (wrt Dax). If he thought Apple was playing well CTB would not have got 60% of the defensive snaps.

But...CTB has been injured. Zac mentioned it in his presser. They intended on working him in, and when it became a blowout, they played him more.

Yep, and Lou mentioned CTB did not have any training camp reps, so they need to get him some game reps when possible.

Spot on, cannot put a lot of stock in their film study from week to week. It is just interesting to analyze afterwards.

Nice thread, one thing about Lou is his backups seem to really step up for him when a starter goes down. Tufele, Bailey,
ADG, have really played well with DJ and Logan out. Zach Carter also looks to be coming into form at 3-tech. Takes time
with these rookies, especially one who played on the edge a lot in college so there is a transition to boot with him.

I think in a tighter game his snap share would have been less but they probably felt they could leave him out there a bit more than they planned knowing they had cushion. As other have said, Hill got a bunch of reps in the preseason and they are probably looking at CTB as most likely having to take meaningful snaps at some point this years because injuries always happen. It's better to get them now when games are in control, but it wouldn't surprise me if he passes Apple by EoY.

Good to see how some of the reserves getting reps and many doing well. I didn’t notice it much but sounds like Adeniji did well when collins was out. That’s huge for the bengals if Adeniji turns into a reliable backup OT

He graded really well with PFF.  They got really good backup snaps from a waiver claim, a seventh rounder, a sixth rounder and a fourth rounder.  The best teams in the NFL find ways to get meaningful production from lower round picks/waiver wire guys.  Great to see the Bengals doing it as well.

Maybe we should stop putting tackles at guard in general... Need a guard, draft a damn guard.
