So we've gotten destroyed in every game this season and all of a sudden we are going to win one to give the Bengals the first pick? If John Fox screws us in that fashion I will be pissed. Theres no point in winning any game this season...

The Bengals also have the Browns, who just lost to the Buffalo Bills. I'm going to go ahead and say that the Bengals can beat the Browns. Arizona isn't a TERRIBLE team. Considering we gave up a 14 point lead to the Seahawks last year I'd say there is very little chance we win another game this season. We had about as good a chance as we've had all season last week against Seattle.

i dont see how they would get #1 pick if they lose out and we only beat Arizona. Thats bs. They beat us early in season, we should get it.

Bengals have a tough finish. I don't see them winning a game.

We could beat AZ. The run game has been very good lately.....

Agreed. I am unfamiliar with the breakdown as well. I understand it's supposed to be dependent on strength of schedule, but I feel like a higher priority tie breaker should include head-to-head matchups?

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
