Terrell Owens-WR- Bills Jul. 26 - 12:30 pm et

Profootballtalk.com reports that the Bengals and Rams are not the only teams in pursuit of free agent Terrell Owens.

The other unnamed teams are reportedly just not showing "the same level of urgency." Meanwhile, Bengals owner Mike Brown spoke at length Monday of signing T.O. "I'd like to have him on our side of the ball compared to the other side," said Brown. "He can change field position. He makes big plays."

I'm sure there are plenty of teams that have told Rosenhaus that they are willing to sign T.O. to a minimum contract. Wouldn't be surprised if we're one of those teams. But a bidding war...yea right. And the fact that the Rams are even considering it just makes me want to laugh and cry for that organization. The Bengals would be perfect for T.O. He and 85 can hold each other cox in the huddle.

rams are officially out

Terrell Owens-WR- Bills Jul. 26 - 3:11 pm et

Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the Rams have decided to pass on the idea of signing free agent Terrell Owens.

FOX Sports' Jay Glazer seconds the report. Rams brass convened Monday to discuss Owens' fit in St. Louis, and decided against adding the perceived locker-room cancer to one of the league's youngest offenses. The Rams will move forward with Donnie Avery and Laurent Robinson as their starting wideouts. The Bengals are now the clear-cut favorites to sign Owens.

I wouldn't mind a one year deal, just so our rookies have a chance to develop without too much pressure. Having 2 ball hungry WRs like Smith and TO would be good and bad, but it'd be worth it as long as TO can catch the ball when it is thrown to him.

And if it worked out well and we wanted to keep him, then its a win-win. That would give us true DEPTH at WR and Lafell or Edwards can become the Ricky Proehl type from 03, with viable #4 and #5 WRs also.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
