Re: 2019 Camp Thread
Well we made it folks. It begins tomorrow. Looks like B1 has officially jumped ship (he may be mentally healthy now but he's still a coward ). Marvin and the crew are history, OogieBoogie and Fisher are gone, Pacman and Burfict too. And yet I don't feel even slightly better about our chances. Gonna be an interesting two weeks until the Giants game.
Let's do this....

HAHA I went fishing for a week and didn't think about the Bengals the whole time...
This entire season might be that way as well.

Re: 2019 Camp Thread
John Ross is quickly going to become a lost cause for 2019. He has a nagging hammy issue. They have announced he will be out 2 weeks, which takes us into preseason games. Rest assured with AJ out they will not have Ross playing in more than 1 preseason game. Which means he won't be in sync with the offense and Dalton in Week 1. I'm not even convinced he will make it to Week 1 at this point. That hammy hasn't gotten better for over 6 months!!
You can count on Boyd, Erickson, Tate, Core, Eiffert & Sample as of today. A HEEAAVY dose of Mixon and Gio in Weeks 1 & 2 until we know what we have protecting Andy. I can see 2 TE sets for more than 50% of the plays in Week 1 with Sample blocking everywhere.
Mikey....call the Skins. Make a trade offer they can't refuse for Trent Williams. Get it done!

I strongly believe we'll maybe win 4 to 5 games this year if that. It's going to suck bad!skycruiser wrote: ↑Wed Jul 31, 2019 10:05 amwe are going to suck so bad this year

Re: 2019 Camp Thread
Just watched NFL Films on the Bengals on FS1. It in included highlights from 2018 and interviews with Zac Taylor about players coming back. It has certainly upped my optimism about the upcoming season. Talked about how injuries just killed them after the great start to the season. If get a chance watch it.
Re: 2019 Camp Thread
Some good news out of camp to try to start up some board activity.
Carl Lawson is the unmistakable star of Bengals camp so far
So much for a slow injury comeback for Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Carl Lawson.
One doesn’t have to look far to find praise for Lawson, who only suited up in seven games a season ago and at one point was expected to potentially miss a chunk of training camp.
But Lawson has been out there and dominant, looking physically like he’s even better than before. Teammates have noticed. Here’s Sam Hubbard, via Bengals.com:
“That was something else. (Lawson) looks amazing. He was supposed to be back in October, but he’s a freak of nature. He came back strong and faster than last year.”
The Bengals knew they had something special on their hands with Lawson when they deployed him situationally as a rookie in 2017 and he totaled 8.5 sacks on limited snaps. The injury, plus being lost in a defense that misused talent and got a coordinator fired last year, has helped him fall back under the radar.
While Hubbard and Carlos Dunlap are currently listed as starters on the edges, the Bengals clearly aren’t going to have a good excuse to avoid letting Lawson get out there often.
Re: 2019 Camp Thread
Well, that's nice to hear at least. It's great to have more than the bare minimum of starter-quality d-linemen to be able to rotate, keep em fresh, and provide pressure all game long.4256 Hits wrote: ↑Thu Aug 08, 2019 9:48 pmSome good news out of camp to try to start up some board activity.

Not that this will make up for all the things going wrong, but hey, it's something.
