At 5-5 the Bengals have to start thinking about shutting Burrow down, especially if this wrist injury is going to keep him out multiple games. He's been banged up all year, they have a tough schedule down the stretch, and if he misses any games they're likely gonna be out of it by the time he's back again. At that point, I'd honestly just shut him down.

Nah put him back in right now to see if he can throw from the Baltimore 12. Lol

A lot of teams have to feel stupid for not going after Lamar Jackson. All he does is win games.

BB told Lamar he was going to draft him with one of their 2 first round picks but he didn't during draft day which include drafting an over hyped RB. BB is a great coach but he is awful in drafting.

Except bowl games and playoff games.

I think he'll get there.  He's relying less on his legs and more on his brain these days.  I expect the Ravens will be in the AFC title game game this year.  That Burrow injury combined with the Watson injury basically handed them the division.

Ravens were my SB pick. That Andrews injury will be bigger than you think.

 

Not sure they win the AFC without Andrews.

Saw an article before the game about Burrows wrist being in a brace. Thought it was BS because nothing was cited by any legit sources. Then he magically hurts his wrist in game. Heads needs to roll if the injury was legit and it wasn’t reported. 

They showed the footage of him in the brace getting off the bus.

NFL is already looking into it.

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      By csx · Posted

      No you dont.  He had all those records for years before his final season. Whether career or season he had them all years before his final season in which he played 6 games.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By csx · Posted

      Williams covered for Moore by saying they were on the wrong page about Moores specific route. Williams could have easily covered for him by saying he messed up. Suggesting only 1 route was ever intended to be a viable target is absurd.

      Edge Rushers

      I am going to agree with Linville this time--I think we need to get a veteran edge (We have Jones II, Scourton, and Princely--2 developmental guys and a decent veteran).  We don't really think of Jones because he had a hamstring injury weeks 3 and 4 and a back that required surgery Week 6-17.  He still managed 10 pressures, and he will be 28.  Princely Umanmielen only played in approximately 18-20% of the snaps and he struggled at times.  Basically, he was a situational pass rusher.  He got 1.5 sacks and 10 pressures.  He should improve, but for now, he is what he is.  Scourton gives us hope.  For a rookie (and thanks to Jones II's injuries, he was given more PT), he had 8 sacks--and held the edge.  He played at a first-round draft pick level.  He has the potential to become "that guy" in 2026. We lose Wonnum, who played nearly 700 snaps and amassed 3 whole sacks.  For a person raised a Gamecock, I would not be upset if we purged our roster of all South Carolina alumni.   However, I see it this way:  Wonnum was decent holding the edge, something Patrick Jones II and Scourton have demonstrated at a high level.  He is a liability, if you ask me.    Jones had 7 sacks one season in Minnesota and is known for his inside rushing ability--not what you would call a speed rusher.  I think Princely was a bit disappointing, but he was a bit raw.  Out of college, they described him as being a bit predictable.  I see no reason he will not improve in 2026 and become a situational pass rusher.   Basically, with Scourton and Princely expected to continue to develop and Jones II returning from injury, I think we need another veteran (if we can get a good one) to give us balance and depth.  A third developmental player is not ideal.   Draft:  OT, LB, WR, OL depth, S. Free Agency:  Edge, possibly a WR;  re-sign Mays, Cuhran, BC (??), and Nijman.  Let walk:  Wonnum, Scott, Dowdle.  I see about $20m per year after signing the OL depth.  Spend it on a veteran edge.   Players like Reddick (Tampa), Bosa (Buffalo), Khalil Mack (LAC) could be available on a one or two year deal in the $15m range.  We could splurge here, but I think a veteran situational pass rusher (depending on Jones II's back) is all we need while our 2 young guns develop.
