November 21, 20169 yr Hurt it with 58 seconds to go. Must have played with it for a couple of plays. He will be lucky to be easy for the start of next season. His legs and quickness are his assets, as we know. It usually takes 18 months to two years to FULLY get back to normal, unless you are AP.
November 21, 20169 yr Season is over now. Now? It was over when they tied Washington as far as I'm concerned.
November 21, 20169 yr Now? It was over when they tied Washington as far as I'm concerned. Sure it's over, this team never even STARTED this year, would've lost thier opening game to the Jets if Marshall doesn't drop a wide open pass at mid-field to start their last drive, offensive line has been absolutely HORRIBLE all year, if you tape a game run some of the plays back and watch how many blocks are missed or just get blown up on almost every play. And I get tired of the people saying the defense is tired because they're on the field so much because the offense goes 3 and out, our defense could force some 3 and outs instead of letting teams shove it down their throat with 7-8 minute drives. WORST time management team in the history of pro football, look like a high school team managing end of half and end of games, look that they never work on it!!

They probably shouldn't have won that game either.

The last 2 games the defense has played good and was constantly on the field. It's hard to produce a three and out when you are constantly back on the field. Especially yesterday the defense kept giving the ball back to the offense only to be right back on the field. The defense has been bad all year, but the last 2 games the defense has shown signs of getting back to how they use to be. Still not good but the defense hasn't been the problem the last 2 games.
November 21, 20169 yr Author If Green didn't get hurt the lost of Gio wouldn't have hurt to much. I am a big fan of Rex Buckhead and think he will do a good job as the backup. Also if people remember it was when Gio got hurt and missed 4 games that Hill took off and started to tear it up. I feel like this will help Hill get in more of a rhythm which all backs need. Now it doesn't mean much for this season because teams will load the box. Hopefully the Bengals will start using more 2 TE sets now and be an under center Play action team like in 2014 when Green and all receiving threats were hurt. Plus hopefully the actually start splitting Eifert out more and use another TE to stay in and help block or chip DEs.
November 21, 20169 yr Curious, what do you Bengal fans think is the most pressing need in the upcoming draft?

With as bad as we have been running the ball I would think splitting Eifert out while also having another TE on the line to block opens the field because you have to shade towards Eifert and you have an extra blocker to help run the ball or pass protect. New England does this all the time.
November 21, 20169 yr Gio & AJ both down for the count in the same game...Yikes. Rough day for the Bengals got a lot worse. Add in Kirkpatrick and Williams both left and could be dealing with serious injuries. Curious, what do you Bengal fans think is the most pressing need in the upcoming draft? O-line followed by a linebacker.
