McD has zero faith in Bass from long distances. Proven it time and again.

The broadcast should have a a “dropped pass” counter on the screen. Has to be at least 4 now.

For 5% of the money (literally).

Garrett Wilson put Rasul Douglas on skates lol.

lol Kincaid chose to lower the shoulder pad rather than run around.

When did Diggs and Gabe change hands?

Singletary has 92 carries for 359 yards and 3.9 ypc on the year. One game doens't change his overall body of work.

A new OC every 2 years (on average) doesn't seem high to you? It does to me. The problem is that most of his peers (high-end coaches), ARE the offensive mind of the team. Reid - Offensive guru McVay - Offensive guru Shanahan - Offensive guru Payton - Offensive guru Pederson - Offensive guru LaFleur - Offensive guy Sirianni - Offense guy McDaniel - Offensive guru Taylor - Offensive guy Caroll is a defensive guy. He has had 3 offensive coordinators in 14 years. Tomlin is a defensive guy. He has had 4 offensive coordinators in 16 years. Belichick is a defensive guy. He has had 4 offensive coordinators in 22 years. Only successful guy I can think of with a lot of changes are Vrabel and Harbaugh.

Agree with you. Im sure most up and coming guys would love to work with Allen. Not so sure about wanting to work with McD though. They would be the 4th OC in 8 seasons.

That really only applies to QB's. 57% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl WR's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 47) 64% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl RB's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 45) 57% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl TE's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 42) 64% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl G's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 60) 63% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl C's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 49) 52% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl LB's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 36) 57% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl Safeties drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 49) Only 28% of All-Pro/Pro-Bowl QB's drafted over the last 10 years has been drafted in Round 2 or later (Median: Pick 10) You could say the same for the rest of McD's drafts... He never got another Tre or Dawkins or Milano again. Not really. Reid had been to 4 straight Championship games and a Super Bowl by the same point as McD is in his career.

Yeah, definitely GPT. 😉

I laughed at the goat.

This has to be ChatGPT. No way a human could take the word "love" in this context so literally.

He gets a pass because he’s not drafting in the top 15? I disagree. One could honestly make an argument that, outside of Josh (1 player), Whaleys last draft (in terms of impact players) was equal to or better than all of Beane’s drafts combined. In that last draft Whaley picked Tre White, Dion Dawkins and Matt Milano.

Beane has been consistent with drafting average players (which is honestly an improvement over most GM’s). Meaning, his draft picks are rarely ever awful. The majority of them can start or play rotationally. But he has been very bad at drafting great players. In Beane’s tenure he has drafted 44 players: 0 MVP 0 OPOY 0 DPOY 0 First team all-pro 0 OROY 0 DROY 3 Pro Bowlers (Allen, Knox, and Edmunds)

Taylor is one of the top rated pass blocking tackles in the NFL. He’s not great at run blocking but the Chiefs rarely run.

KC has made excellent moves. Gotta give them credit. - They drafted Trey Smith. Bills took Rachad Wildgoose several picks before that. - They drafted Creed Humphrey, who is now the best C in the league. Bills took Carlos Basham two slots before that. - They moved ahead of us and drafted McDuffie. We drafted Elam. They also made protecting their QB a goal of utmost priority. - They signed Joe Thuney, a very good G, to an $80M deal in Free Agency. - They signed Jawaan Taylor in free agency to an $80M deal. - They signed Donovan Smith in free agency to a $9M deal. Beane has some golden nuggets too, with the great signing of Leonard Floyd and McGovern has played well. But we also have some pretty low return-on-investment signings too, with Hardy, and Sherfield and Ford and Von, etc.

The way my jaw just dropped…

Of course we couldn't have played them 2 weeks later...

That first Allen video gave me a lot of renewed hope. Thanks for posting that.

Exactly what I meant in this thread:

9-7 will likely get *someone* in. The problem is, we currently lose every single tiebreaker.

This is exactly the way to defend the Bengals offense. Tight man coverage.

FYI, Frazier has every reason not to be honest about the reason for his departure. It looks a lot better to leave a team voluntarily than to be pushed out. Its workforce politics 101.

My initial thought is to root for the Ravens, since the 1 seed is likely not in play with 5 current losses and we would want the Bengals to get their 5th loss.
