Four starters missing and Stone left at some point. We are watching a bunch of guys on the bubble. You dont want to get too high in the preseason and im not gonna get too low.

Disappointing half for Mackinley Jackson. Didn’t notice him once. He’s one of the main guys they need to take a step forward if they want to have any hope at all.

They are doing some "stuff".
I noticed on one series Sample and Stewart were switching between RDE and LDE

Let’s be honest, we need to outscore everyone and have the last possession, because this team is not stopping anyone

And now the third string immediately gashes our "defense".
RE: ***Preseason Gameday Thread - Bengals @ Eagles*** - RunKijanaRun - 08-07-2025
I’m wondering if this is some sort of joke.

Bengals backups are never good, since forever (which is honestly a problem--but i digress). If the starting CBs and Trey get on the field and the defense can just be near average, it should play out well. It's just a real pain watching anything other than the legit 1st string with this team and it's been like that for a loooong time.
You'd hope they'd be competitive but it is what it is. 1st string needs to be ironmen.
To be fair the bulk of the second string doesn't get a lot of time against another team other than preseason. I don't follow other teams but I wonder how bad their entire second string is.

Please dont have a #21 make the team who can't tackle. Thats like salt in the wound of losing Hilton.

Defense is still ass.
All that hype
RE: ***Preseason Gameday Thread - Bengals @ Eagles*** - Clark W Griswold - 08-07-2025
I get that they still have stuff to learn and it’s the first game but I am disappointed to see guys losing 1 on 1 matchups. That is just head to head beating your man and it is not happening.
The edge rushers did not win many (if any) one on ones vs the Eagles second string tackles.

Sure hope not. I'm not as confident as you. Not yet. I've fallen down that rabbit hole too many times.

Let's be honest, you need to step away from the keyboard.

The doom and gloom is a bit ridiculous
According to the Eagles' announcers, the Bengals had a lot of starters in there on defense, while the Eagles had 2nd and 3rd stringers on their offense.
But, yes, there should not be doom and gloom. The Bengals are installing a new defense and it would be surprising if they were a smooth machine in the very first game.

Barrett Carter looking like Charles Jefferson against Lincoln.
