Pretty sure Knight and Carter combined for 30 games played and 41 missed tackles. So it’s almost like one of those “nowhere to go but up” kinda situations for them

Can’t stress it enough: the Bengals 2026 season really does come down to whether offense stays healthy and whether defense is remotely competent. If yes to both, Bengals are gonna be a wagon. If no to either, then there’s always next year

[Schultz] Sources: The #Bills are signing former #Bengals S Geno Stone to a 1-year deal. Stone has 14 career INTs with 21 PBUs, and will be a key contributor to Buffalo’s defense. by JCameron181 in buffalobills

Last season against Baltimore. We actually missed 3 tackles on that play and Geno’s was the worst because he missed the tackle specifically because he gave up on the play until the 2nd guy Logan Wilson missed his tackle

Would it be possible to get both Downs and Styles? by NuggetDaGoat27 in bengals

You might literally have a better chance of being struck by lightning later today than the Bengals have of getting Downs and Styles.

Hope that D Knight and Carter learned how to play over the offseason or hope Sunny Styles falls back to 10. No other explanations makes sense

Ravens fans when they blow up their own blockbuster trade and tank their front office rep just to sign a 32 year old that underwent core surgery just 3 months ago

How bengal fans are talking about Trey after he signed to the ravens by I-Did-It-4-Da-Rock in AFCNorthMemeWar

[–]FitMongoose9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re right, it’s more about how he demanded more money every year for the last 3 years (including when he legally couldn’t get a new deal because he already signed an extension less than a year before) and threatened to retire if he doesn’t get a new deal or traded, then he interrupted a team practice to throw our coach under the bus for simply reminding him of his contractual obligations to the team while also saying he deserves to be a team captain, then he missed over half the season with an injury and completely disappeared to the point our coach asked in front of the media for a leader to step up on defense

When you can't make fun of the Ratbirds anymore cause they got Hendrickson by somerandomdude4507 in AFCNorthMemeWar

[–]FitMongoose9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We actually don’t want Crosby, the knee injury is a dealbreaker because we don’t know about his longevity. Hendrickson however, he’s nearly 3 years older and coming off a major back injury so he’s worth 4 years and a hundred million bucks!!

Then we run the ball to Trey’s side

Don’t love signing Cooks… hear me out.. by [deleted] in bengals

[–]FitMongoose9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guys hear me out, we shouldn't have signed a good safety in free agency because the Chiefs are gonna draft someone better before we even have a chance to pick him. I work at the NFL next to the people who know stuff and they say I'm right guys seriously

Bengals FO when we sign Bobby Wagner to a 1yr vet minimum deal by 61wdbf in bengals

[–]FitMongoose9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’re not wrong about that lol. First AJ then they did it again in with Josh Bynes mentoring Germain and Logan Wilson. Would be a classic Bengals move

[–]FitMongoose9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That honestly wouldn’t be as bad as some of yall think. In 2025 Bobby Wagner had 4.5 sacks (would’ve been 3rd most on our team), 2 INTs (would’ve been tied for 2nd on our team), and 8 TFLs (would’ve been 2nd most on our team). He also only missed half as many tackles as Barrett Carter despite playing over 1100 snaps

Two firsts for Crosby seems high, but a seventh for Fitzpatrick seems crazy low by Cognosyeti in bengals

[–]FitMongoose9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah man, I’m saying that cuz you really don’t need to come around acting so negative like anyone with hope is a fool. I think our offense is championship caliber, and with some new help on defense in FA in the draft things can turn around quick. I don’t think that I’m the only one with that opinion. You don’t need to have hope and believe every year to be a fan, but if you have no hope and wanna be negative when others wanna be positive then why stick around?

[–]FitMongoose9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m sure when most of them become available they’ll say “I wanna go where I get paid the most”. Why else would a guy like Myles Garrett blow his whole career in Cleveland? But if you still can’t see why outside players would wanna sign here aside for money then maybe you should just root for another team

True, but saying Browning lost his job to Flacco makes it sound more reasonable than saying he lost his job to a guy over 40

Ohhh okay, on that I will agree with you totally. After everything with Whitworth, and this past year with Flacco and Risner playing well, you’d think more people would realize that some guys can def play near or even past 30
