    It's not irrelevant though. There was 1:54 left and we had all 3 timeouts. If we had forced a 3 and out (assuming 3 run plays) the offense would have 1:40 left to try and score. 

     

    Instead the DEF folded like a cheap suit (again) and allowed 2 first downs. Only THEN was the game over and KC could kill the clock. 

     

    We've set expectations so low on the DEF side of the ball in playoff games that nobody cares when they fail. It's fully expected.

     

    If I'm assigning blame for the last 2 losses to the Chiefs I'd say

    2023:

    90% DEF

    5% Bass

    5% OFF

     

    2024:

    90% DEF

    10% OFF

     

    The Offense hasn't been perfect in the last 2 losses and they did fail to score on their last possession. However, they put together very strong games against a top defense. The DEF has gotten absolutely trounced by a very mediocre Chiefs offense. 

    You can feel however you want. The strength of the team is the offense. It needs to act like it. 30 points a game until it matters most.

    Hmmm I could've sworn it was the DEF on the field at the end of the game after giving up multiple first downs on KC's clock killing drive. 

    If you choose to believe that was the end you go ahead. You're one of the people who probably lays the previous year on Bass as well.

     

    They had the ball at midfield with time and couldn't convert. That KC then finished running out the clock in a game they were already winning is irrelevant. The offense needed to score, had time, and field position and didn't. Again.

     

    This matters to me because if you asked me which part of the team I had the most faith in I would have said the offense. Hands down. Get them the ball and they can make it happen. Well, this is two years in a row that side of the ball came up short in the biggest moment. My faith has not been justified.

    Where are you seeing this? Bc all I'm seeing is:

     

    https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/bengals-working-to-retain-trey-hendrickson-after-giving-jamarr-chase-tee-higgins-massive-deals-per-reports/

     

    It's not impossible. The Bengals notoriously don't pay anyone. They always have a massive amount of cap space. Even with Burrow. So when they want to spend money, they can.

     

    People didn't think they could do Burrow, Higgins, and Chase either. If they want to keep Hendrickson and it seems they do, I'd bet they can make that work too.

    I'm not seeing it, but you point out why it's the case and it's why they gave him permission to seek a trade in the first place. They know they aren't going to pay him what he wants, otherwise you don't give him permission to seek a trade.

    Floyd hasn't missed a start in 8 years. It's actually quite insane. What are you even talking about?

    He's trying to talk around the fact that Bosa hasn't played much by linking an injury that Floyd had, and played through, which impacted his performance late in the year he was a Bill.  Because those things must be equivalent.

    Gives them some options for sure.  If there is someone that they really like at back of 3rd they have ammo to move up.  Alternatively, they could spend those 5ths to move each of their 4ths earlier in that round.

    Or, since their hit rate in the 5th and 6th seems to be pretty high overall maybe just use all the picks.

    She should have been a girl you knew before your wife. That is not what you marry, and that is why. There is such a thing as “too fun”. 

    You date the sportscar, you marry the Camry (or a Lexus if you're really doing it well)

     

    In case you were curious, yes it does appear to be a single wide out in the woods.

  7. I see them as about the same as they were. Bosa and Miller are a wash. Is Ogunjobi better than another DT, maybe but he's still not the anchor they have lacked inside. What is Hoecht on this team? Pass rushing DE? How many snaps is he going to see? How will they use him? Bosa is clearly marked for passing downs and they just paid Groot a lot of money so he should be in those too. Oliver isn't coming off the field so is the plan to slide Groot inside in those situations?

     

    Is Palmer an upgrade over what they got from Amari Cooper? Maybe. For a guy who is open a lot he doesn't seem to have much production which is odd given that he's coming from a team with a good QB. He doesn't bring speed to the WR room and he's also not been healthy.
