Honestly the way the Bengals are playing is my answer to anyone saying we need to tank and draft a QB. "We need a top 10 QB"

My answer will always be, "behind what line?" This is not a QB driven league. That's erroneous thinking. This is an Offensive Line driven league. The Bengals are starting 4 different O linemen from their Super Bowl team. Now Joe Burrow looks like Jimmy Clausen. And every QB who has looked good today, you know what the commonality was? Time in the pocket. 

Cam, Teddy, Sam, Baker. They've all looked mediocre. And yet people want to pursue ANOTHER QB? That will magically be the answer?

What's that old saying about the definition of insanity?

Until we have a line, we won't contend. Period. You will not succeed in this "Top 10 QB driven league" if your QB is constantly throwing from a collapsing pocket. 

When the Bengals have the same record we do after today, you'll believe me.

They literally just went to the Super Bowl. 😂

We want to pursue a top QB prospect AND a new staff.

...that's exactly my point, dummy 

The only difference between the Super Bowl team, and a 5 turnover performance last week and losing to the Cowboys this week is a completely inferior O line. Same Joe Burrow. Same Jamar Chase. So why do they look so bad?

Wilson doesn’t have the receivers he did in Seattle that FOUGHT for those 50/50 balls.

His entire career. Going back to college.

Drop back. Run around like a chicken with his head cut off. Throw up an I'll advised prayer of a ball while getting sacked just for a receiver to come out of nowhere to fight his way through three DBs to make a circus catch. Over and over again.

    • People were discussing the new backup QB in comparison the the starter.  Neither has anything close to a cannon.  Video was posted of them throwing.  If people can’t be free to express their opinions without being put on a list of posters who have ruined this place we have a bad situation here. People trying to silence  criticism of the QB.    Maybe actually post about the other players instead of about the other posters. That is where it went off the rails.    
    • That's true and we're definitely going to hear more about it as summer progresses. But at the end of the day all of the progress we've made on the roster as a whole will only matter if our passing offense can emerge from the basement of the NFL. In 2023 it was 32 out of 32 in 2024 it was 30th out of 32 and last year it was 26th out of 32. And early in the season we relied heavily on a career year from Rico Dowdle who is no longer on the roster. This is only reinforced by the fact that we (depending on how one views it) effectively took playcalling out of Dave Canales hands and brought in another offensive mind. The elephant in the room isn't going anywhere no matter how much we may not like it.
    • There's plenty of other things to discuss. This is the most talented roster we've had in a long time.
