josh is exactly the type of slot we need playing against the ravens, he's very physical in press coverage and he's an excellent tackler in close or in space..His only true knock was long speed which really doesn't matter if you keep a good technique..
josh won't give the ravens receivers the inside slant routes that killed us in both games last year and he'll definitely be a help in run support being close to the los..I live in Baltimore born and raised but I am a diehard bengals fan..Ravens fans are confident and there talking as much as I've ever heard them talk and that's why I have a real quiet belief/confidence that the bengals are gonna shock some folks this weekend..

I think Turner will get the vast majority of the snaps in the slot. Or Hill. CTB, Hill, and Turner will play the vast majority of the snaps. And remember, there will be a lot less 3 CB sets hecause the Ravens play a lot of 2 TE, 2 RB sets.
We will play more 5 DL, 3 LB, and/or 3 S looks this week. All the DTs should play some (Hill, Jenkins, Tufele, Guy, Jackson) and all the DEs (Hendrickson, Hubbard, Murphy, Ossai, Johnson). I expect the backup LBs & S's to get more PT than usual, too.
Newton did get 11 snaps vs Carolina.

I'm looking forward to seeing Newton get more action as well. Hoping he's a good un.

you definitely made good points, but the bengals should play Newton in the slot more than turner in this game simply because is a the more physical corner and his play is Taylor made for this game..

I'm looking forward to seeing what Fig can do, but let's not kid ourselves, this is not the game to be going into without Hilton. Hilton knows the Ravens as well as anybody having played them twice a year in Shitsburgh and here. We will miss his football smarts in this game.

He is questionable with a knee injury, has anyone heard differently yet.

I don't think anyone knows for sure, I'm just saying this is not the game for us to miss him.
