That being the case, did the Bengals conduct an MRI before releasing him?
Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
Tough to see him go. Hopefully someone will claim him and give him a shot.
Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
So, what is your prediction? How many games will the Bengals win this year?
In looking at their schedule, it's pretty even. About half the games will be very tough and half the games should be fairly easily winnable.
I'm going to go with 10-6. I do think there's a chance they could get to 11-5, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Due to HIPAA laws, I'm not privy to such info but I'm not aware of his agent grumbling about this. Are you?

I'm hoping for at least 9 and a playoff win. Back to back winning seasons is a step they still need to take.

I'd be surprised if they don't win at least 9 games. Even though they have a tough division, the Bengals easily should be better this year. Another great draft and Dalton is a year older/more experienced.
Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
I'm thinking 9-10 wins unless Dalton gets hurt.
Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
I am thinking 8 wins, with luck we may get 10, and with bad luck we may get 6. The offense seems to have a nice flow so far and I love how Dalton is handling all of his duties so far.
Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
I'm hoping for 10 wins, but expecting about 8. It's been 30 years or so since this team has made the playoffs back to back times. That's a long time. They're due, but with their schedule and these injuries piling up, it'll be difficult. I do like their though. If they stay reasonably healthy, they should get better and better as the season goes.

You like their "what"? Seems to me you forgot a very important word there.
Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
I can see anywhere from 10-6 to 6-10. I think this is a good team, with two very good coordinators. I also think that Dalton has knack to make the big time play when it is needed. He has the ability to escape the pocket and turn a sack into a 5 yard gain. Green may be one of the best WR's in the league but will need some help opposite him. The Law Firm will be a big upgrade over where Ced was last season.
On defense their front 4 is a bunch of "no names" who get the job done. Adkins and Dunlap have the potential to be difference makers. They need a playmaker in the back 7.
If the injury bug doesn't hit a key player this season I think the Bengals have a good shot to make the playoffs. If Green, Dalton, Adkins, Hall, Whit, or any other key cog miss an extended period of time they are in trouble.

The Buccaneers signed Jordan Shipley today.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion
Jonathan Fanene was released by the Pats. Given the injury concerns on the d-line, I'd love to have him back.
