Hard Knocks - Bengals


Zod

Recommended Posts

As the Bengals are my AFC team (I was born in Cinci) I am loving this season's hard knocks.

 

My new favorite Bengal may be Margus Hunt

Dude has only been playing football a few years and goes in the second round of the draft. lol

 

The last episode the other members of the D-Line were telling him how strong he was and doesn't even know it yet.

 

Keep your eye on this kid.

Before the Tennessee game in the locker room, Dalton tells WR Sanu that he should floss before the game because, "...never know when the camera will catch your smile...," "...don't want something in your teeth..."

Then tosses him a corner fade in the end zone for 6...

 

The rookie talent show was hilarious....

Paul Brown, team president, giving BenJarvis Green-Ellis a ride to practice in his golf cart...

Jeremy Maybin getting cut.... think he'll make a good OLB somewhere. His head is in the right place and he's working, just can't get the playing time since he's changing positions from DE and the Bengals are loaded at LB.

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
