If our secondary doesn't use some steriods or something how are we to believe we are gonna stop there WRs? Any thoughts on how this might play out? I mean we got beat deep and short by Tampa's crappy wideouts. how can we really expect to win?

i'm talking on the D side of the ball... there is no way you can expect Jimmy to go toe to toe with carson, TO, and ocho. If we can't stop there passing game and we are relying only on our unknown passing game to keep up we are screwed!

The Bengal O is currently ranked 10th (8th in passing, 21st rushing) in the league. They're putting up 340 yards per game and are committing no penalties. +2 in the turnover department and have a 33 minute time of possession average.

Seeing how the Panther D-line hasn't touched a QB yet, Carson Palmer with time in the pocket will kill the Panthers and the Bengal's O-line will open some gaping holes for Cedric Benson and Bernard Scott, who are carrying the ball 30 times a game together.

TO: 10 catches 110 yards

Ocho: 16 catches 203 yards

Shipley: 10 catches 124 yards

Did the Panthers pass on Jordan Shipley during the draft? Anyone know?

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
