Zac is the reason we got Burrow and Chase to begin with. His success is due to them and Lou when he had more than one good player. Front office went cheap and now those guys can't bail Taylor out any longer. He was along for the ride on the super bowl run. Might have actually been a liability. There's a lot of people in an organization like this. Are you pulling the cart or just a passenger making it heavier?
Pay Jamar, Tee, and Trey or trade Joe and Jamar. and be the jags
Selling my season tickets
Someone grow some balls and write an editorial to tell the owners to sell this team to people who want to win. Mike Browns wife was a joke in her interview. Mike Brown dont care I was a Martial Arts guy in 87 to 89 who helped them tremendously ahile Kim Wood did nothing but talk bad about me. We went to the Superbowl after I worked with McNally and th Oline. Ask Munoz.
They could have gotten Saquan Henry or even Hunt. They do not care understand the fans are getting shafted. I stopped watch9ng after they did me wrong for 20 years until I saw Joe Burrows Heisman speech. But I am about done again. I see why the oline is bad but they do niot.
They paid Evan but not Jamar ???
Ownership is arrogant…they have a mindset saying this is how "WE" do it.
The market changes…but this is how "WE" do it…😢
Pay jamar right damn now! Call up belicheck and warm zachs uber up the go somewhere else. Loved the energy but like Marvin changed the culture and zach took it further we need the MLK of football. Bellicheck will lead us to the mountain top. Amen…..
I agree with most of the comments but something few if any are talking about is Frank Pollack. The Bengals have spent money and effort to get a tough good offensive l8ne and they can nit run tge ball or protect Joe.
Pollack is awful. Time fir him to go
In 2022 mike brown came back to the office and we’ve imploded since. When his daughter and son in law were running the show we went to a Super Bowl. Mike needs to strip down. Lou needs to go.
We need bill billichek
Sell the team Mike, the fan base deserves better. You refuse to spend the money to bring in the players we need. Free agents don’t want to come here and you let good players leave, it’s time for a new owner.
I told myself I’d be done watching Bengals news and videos… and maybe be done watching the games.. but here we all are😂. Let’s win out baby
They have to clean house. Management included.
Everyone wanted on the Bengals a couple of years ago because of Joe B, what now, who wants to play with current coaches and questionable ownership. Back to wearing bags on our heads next year?
I was born in '76, every Bengals team has been a disappointment. #letsgoreds #gobucksbeatblue #whodey
How long before Burrow goes full Carson Palmer on this organization and demands a trade? You watch…..there is no way this team is signing Chase this offseason. They should trade him if they aren't going to sign him…..but they won't do that either. They will let Tee walk, and keep Chase around after his contract with a franchise tag…..and then he will walk too. Its what the Bengals do….. Its not the players…..its the organization.
You know, David Bell was recently fired by the Reds because he kept losing close games; Zac needs to start figuring this out, or he can follow David out the door!
Mid-season assessment:
Joe Burrow amazing
Jamarr Chase amazing
Offense decent
Special teams good
Defense bad
Coaching bad
Front office/ organization horse sh## terrible, horrendous, so bad it feels like the "despicable me" minions are up there making the decisions
evidence Zac Taylor and his coaching staff don't know what they're doing, Joe Mixon leaves the bengals team and has the best season of his career under a new system.
joe ask to b traded before its to late u will never win in cincinnati
It’s the d line with any team…especially this team
No running game
They will not fire The head coach
Fire Zach. Fire Frank. Keep Lou. This is the first season where our defense has been the biggest liability. In the past he saved us. He deserves a 2nd chance. But if its not a significant improvement next season. 2027 he is gone.
Another thing that would improve us is. Increasing the amount of scouts we have.
Tee Higgins gone after you miss the playoffs too
Someone said CTB stand for cut that b!+<# 😂
Rex Ryan!
Don't cry now, i warned everybody here in all those post and pre draft videos you made here about Drafting/needing to pick up players for that bad defense they were missing. And yall kept talking about "We got Good picks, Good pick" on repeat.
Cam TAYLOR Britt IS REALLY 🐌 AND other team NO THAT PERIOD
Bengals HAD A CHANCE IN GETTING A GOOD CORNER BACK AND BLOW IT PERIOD😢
It's all about spending 💰 AND Mike Brown WOULD NOT allow THIS TO happen PERIOD!😢
Yeah it's all the coaches and Mike Brown is ALL THE reason FOR their LOSING SEASON PERIOD!!!😭
James U BRAD ABOUT GIVING EVAN McPherson THE NAME MONEY MAC😛BUT HOW DO YOU FEEL NOWADAYS😘EVAN MISS Pedersen IS HIS REAL NAME PERIOD!!!😭
Getting rid of the OFFENSE LINE coach FIRST AND then the defense COACH NEXT WILL BE THE first TO GO!!!😢
Getting rid of the OFFENSE LINE coach FIRST AND then the defense COACH NEXT WILL BE THE first TO GO!!!😢
Nowadays START looking for a new field goal KICKER PERIOD BECAUSE the ONE they have is 🗑😢😢😢😮😭
McPherson WAS overwhelmed OVERRATED FROM U JAMES😮
What’s up James and Jake I haven’t said anything because it falls on deaf ears for three years I have said the same thing about the same people and this year I watched a guy that was on our team shut out our best defensive end without a chip a guy that Frank overlooked and felt wasn’t good enough I feel that alone shows Frank doesn’t know what he’s doing or what he’s talking about he leaves Cordell in for three years and he sucked for all three got guys that have won Super Bowls and they look worse than ever run game is trash. The defense sucks the players who are crying have been apart of the reason why and Lou has the best defensive end in the league and doesn’t know how to use him which says a lot Tre should be lining up wherever he wants to disrupt the offensive line amazing really Zack doesn’t hold anybody accountable offensive line plays like ass and he said they do a good job doesn’t kick when he should and goes for it when he shouldn’t says a lot as well
Mike Vrabel , Jim Knowles, Joe Brady, come on Duke make it happen
Bengals are relying on pure talent from joe and chase and tee once again. that can only take you so far Bengals needed to find a ways to help out star players before they are gone so many teams dont even have star players like the bengals do. Bring in new staff because this hasnt worked nor will work if no wild changes are made. We have had the best traditional qb in the league and the best WR in the nfl for a couple years and we still havent won an SB? HOW?
Whoever decides to let Joe Mixon go should be fired along with Zach
Without Joe and Jamar this is a 2 win team
Maybe Mac
Been going through this for decades with this organization! Still here 🤦♂️
