This Board is dead! I have been holding back in posting. Bengals improved (except Baltimore) over the second half of season but would have been better with Burrow.
I predicted and 8 – 8 season and at worse a 5-11. Almost made the latter. My prediction was based on having Reader and Atkins for the season and AJ coming back. Injuries caused it to not work out. Dunlap and Coaching staff did not get along also AJ had problems. The injury to Burrow added to the problems. The season is over, and we must (as always) look to trades, FA and the Draft.
I feel the best move for the team is to go to FA for a top OL (maybe 2). With that done we can select a WR (Chase I hope) since AJ will be gone. There still should be a particularly good OL selection in the 2nd round and further down the Draft. If we can get a good trade for Atkins, injury is the question for him, we could get an OL or another Draft pick. We have enough CAP space to do a lot considering AJ leaving, potential trades or other FA's not retained
Polack was a good coaching change. I think we should have gotten a new Defensive Coordinator.
It is going to be an interesting offseason. A lot of moves can be made by a lot of teams.
I hope to hear again from 77 and his great analysis.
