I don’t give a **** what anyone says it’s still better than Siemian and Brandon Allen

Bean for Woodside and $50.
Get it done!

Also the Colt talent evaluators look like they missed on their franchise QB pick so that could set them way back unless he somehow shows dramatic improvement with his accuracy (and NFL QBs usually don’t)



I don’t think the back ups who will/might play are too bad. We saw a very good back up QB play last year and the D has been pretty stout in the preseason. Most of the failures are form guys who won’t make the team…

For the most part, with only a few exceptions, this team is woefully inept beyond the first string.

Cut Woodside and bring back McCarron. Woodside is horrible.. And while we are at it, can we finally get rid of Cody Ford?

This team is built on top 5 picks and free agents. They're super ****** with any kind of injury problem because they have nothing but shit lower on the roster. 

This years draft says otherwise. It’s looking pretty good.

[Clark W Griswold]

Shouldn’t they be getting a look at Lombardi? I think we know what Woodsode is capable of and it’s not good. He really brings nothing to the table. Get a 3rd stringer/PS guy who can run or has a cannon arm. He’s still gonna suck but at least one strong trait might give you a chance in an emergency.

Did Karras say this was the deepest Bengal team he has been on? They must have players hidden in the basement they aren't showing then. Looks like they are awfully thin at about all spots of quality players from the looks of these 3 "practice" games.

I know, I know they are evaluating "talent" for the rest of the roster.

That's fine, but don't tell them right up front that we'll go to $50.

[*rfaulk34*]

Run blocking? They're allowed to do that??????

You do understand who is out there right? With only a couple of exceptions these are guys who don't even appear on depth charts - they're just trying to make a practice squad.

If that means they have to keep Carman then no.

Not sure w/o your second string QB not playing a snap and most final roster WR how you can expect much.

The defense held the Colts 1st string to just 7 points in the first half. They havent done a horrible job especially when they have had zero help from the offense.

[*rfaulk34*]

Colts 4th string QB moved the ball for some points? They're allowed to do that??????????????????????????????

[Joelist]

Aside from giving some snaps to Burton and a couple to Chuck Sizzle to get him back up to speed none of our first or second team receivers have played. All is the closest to first team TE. Line all backups. RB mostly Trayveon Williams.

[Rubekahn29]

3 offensive points in 2 games. Our starters have scored as many TDs in 1 drive than our backups have in 12 quarters

[*Awful Llama*]

A sixteen yard run? They're allowed to do that??????????????????????????????

Sorry, RF.

[Joelist]

And after some good snaps another bonehead decision by Woodside.

[Housh]

Would we even have a loss if we wouldve been starting Burton?

[Joelist]

Followed by the long TD to Burton that has been there all game.
