***Preseason GameDay Thread - Bengals @ Commanders***

[Joelist]

By the way the ESPN coverage was terrible tonight. Spent most of the night fellating the Commanders and also way too many poorly run interviews that took us away from watching football.

He literally got the pass defense rules changed in the NFL.

Why’s Jayden wearing a winter hat in August?

How cold is it in DC?

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

It seems (knock on wood) no injuries tonight.

Patrick, maybe?

He was getting pushed around.  I dont know if he is healthy or not.    He may not be healthy and was playing because he wanted a starting spot.  I thought Rivers looked better regardless of whatever reason Patrick was pulled.

[007BengalsFan]

OK, Zac said it wasnt the gameplan to pull Patrick and put Rivers out there. Said something about Patrick battling injuries.

Good God Im glad someone else noticed. Cameraman or woman was loving some Jayden Daniels closeups.

Patrick was injured per Zac but who really knows with that situation. He was pretty terse when asked p.

Also very short when asked about Trey and the trade rumors “I have nothing to do with thatl

After weeks being the devil's front porch, temps have dropped into the 60's with wind. Not cold, really, but a shake up to the system. Saw Bengals in sweatshirts, too.

First preseason win since 2022

He is young, extremely talented, and just went to the NFC Championship as a rookie last year flipping a franchise that was 4-13 the year before and hadn't had a winning season prior to his arrival since 2016 when they went 8-7-1.

Yup. That is what I was referring to, when I said I don't know what he is doing.   

What concerns me more is our defensive play calling and line formations.

With every offensive snap the opposing team makes, Trey gets more leverage. Maybe they're playing like dog $#!+ on purpose to make it more likely that Trey gets signed.
Weirder things have happened.

Joe's actually had good time to throw. The two sacks weren't on the O-line; they were coverage sacks.
