Wow 3rd round pick for Pryor.
That also leaves the Raiders without a 2nd, 3rd or 4th round pick in the 2012 draft. Al Davis everyone!
I wasn't implying that he should look like Joe Montana, just making an observation. I'd actually like to see Gruden ease him into the game more, maybe some swing passes and/or screens. Just something like that. He was solid after that horrible start even tho his receivers didn't do him any favors.

Well, the Bengals went from absolutely pathetically bad in week #1 to average garden-variety bad in week 2 so I guess that's progress.

I've gone back and forth about which would be worse. While Al Davis has completely lost his mind, he still has shown a willingness to spend money to try and put a winner on the field, even if those efforts are misguided. I'm not sure you can say the same about the Bengals.
And on a slightly more morbid angle, with Al Davis starting to look like the cryptkeeper from Tales of the Crypt there is the possibility that he may pass on sooner rather than later and the team may be taken over by somebody at least semi-competent. Mike Brown is going to live forever and when he does finally pass on we can look forward to his daughter and son-in-law continuing to run the franchise in the same backward manner.
Its gonna be a long long season.

Newsflash!
Joey Votto does not care about RBI.
NEITHER SHOULD ANY OF US
Bengals make a deal for S Taylor Mays according to ESPN. Hopefully Coyle can get something out of him.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
The NFL will do nothing about Mike Brown and his ilk. It's going to take the rest of the league to put pressure on him. However since the rest of the league is making money hand over fist nothing will get done.
Like I have said previously Carson shouldn't have taken the contract extension back a few years ago if he wanted to take a stand. He knows this franchise and he knew full well what he was agreeing to by staying here. Carson quit plain and simple.

Honestly, I think the Bengals are worse. Al Davis really wants to win, and he's mad as heck when he doesn't. He just makes bad decisions. Brown could care less if he wins or not, it's all about the bottom line. He knows what it takes to win and refuses to do it. A perfect example of this is not trading Chad when you could of gotten a 1st round pick for him a season or 2 ago and not trading Palmer when you could of improved the team in a couple of positions. He would rather let both go and get nothing in return.
