"If the Bengals can beat the Bills I like their schedule the rest of the way..
I could see them running the table and getting in the playoffs" ~ @BruceArians#PMSLive
Incredibly, we just received the #Bengals’ first injury report for Week 1, and it is empty.
First time in 16 seasons covering the team I can remember that happening at any point.
(They do have two players on IR: Daijahn Anthony & Cedric Johnson)
Slaton, Burks, Pennel , Risner, & Fant are all under the radar moves that the best teams in football make. The Bengals might not get the recognition for it now but they will later.
Bengals are identifying all weaknesses up and down this roster & are making moves to fill them. These small under the radar moves is what make a complete TEAM. I absolutely Love it.
You don’t need a massive budget to roll out a song.
It’s about telling a story, building anticipation, and keeping momentum going after the release.
If you have a small but mighty base, here’s a simple 3-week plan you can run with $0...
Hear me out, #Bengals fans.
(Regarding Shemar Stewart)
Remember the 2022 season?
(AFC Championship appearance)
The Bengals had just 30 sacks (Bottom 4 in NFL).
But… They ranked much higher in pressure rate (22.4% - Middle of pack)
The Bengals were #1 in the NFL in opponent completion percentage (58.9%).
Guess where Texas A&M ranked last year, in that same stat (Opp. Comp%)...
#4 in the country.
Who was #1?
Notre Dame (Al Golden).
Shemar Stewart led Texas A&M with 39 pressures & 33 hurries.
33 hurries = Top 10 in the country.
The point is...
It's not all about sacks.
