For sure. There is no point of taking the risk of rushing him back when you consider our record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst thing that could happen to the Bengals is that Finley plays, wins a few games, and the team is fooled into passing on a QB in this years draft. He's not the answer. I’d take Finley over anyone not named Tua in this draft. Herbert is lol worthy fools gold. Fromm is a better version of AJ McCarron. I actually do quite like Eason but not more than Finley. Finley has the pocket presence, intelligence, accuracy, and touch more than any QB I’ve scouted since 2013. His arm strength may be average (personally I think his arm is underrated) and you know who elses arm was average? Tom Brady his first 4-5 years in the league before living in the weight room. Ryan Finley is the answer. Shame he may have to waste that as a backup for the Bengals for four years if they draft a QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bengals can't possibly waste the chance at taking a QB while they're in position to do so. I'm not the coach or GM, obviously. But if i was, the only way that Finley could win that job would be to take over after the bye and completely light it up, taking the Bengals out of draft position to take a QB. With this team, that's not going to happen. Andy has been bad, but if he were the guy holding this team back, they'd have won a few games by now. They're inept and/or injured top to bottom.

Yeah I don’t ever see the Bengals rolling with Finley. Might be a good thing for him, and I mean no disrespect by that. Bengals can’t afford the chance to skip a QB if they have a Top 2 Pick and think one is worth of #2 (I don’t think there’s a Top 10 Pick at QB after Tua actually). Perhaps Finley can show flashes throughout three years, and improve his arm strength, and get traded between his third and fourth year for a draft pick. I really do think he’ll be a star given the opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 This really bothers me. He's sitting just because the team sucks. And that's not cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't be the only person who questions the irony of Glenn getting into an argument in the first practice since being cleared by there independent neurologist, can I? He is absolutely trying to copy the Antonio Brown playbook to get out of town with all his money in tact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it came, and what the justification was. It's fishy to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just nothing to talk about until we know which pick they have. Also, I get the LT situation has been bad, but Turner needs to go. This is the worst line performance I've ever seen.

Taking it one step further, Taylor should have never let Pollack leave. If he had been retained, this offense wouldn't be in this position.
