I'm Getting Strong 2010 Vibes

Skip to last weeks game (Im talking STRICTLY about the defense here)  The defensive 1st unit looked horrible against an Eagles 2nd unit. What did I hear the coaches say about it after the game? "We are playing very vanilla and dont want to show our plays but instead seeing the player's ability and it doesnt reflect what youll see this season"


I personally dont buy it. You cant polish a turd. Its not that I dont think Golden will eventually be good. I just dont see it with this defensive roster and the fact that they were hyped during training camp and how different they are versus last year with Lou at the helm....well I saw the same ole shit. 

Burrow and company will play great and score a ton of points and the defense will choke negating whatevert the offense does.




I do remember watching multiple episodes of the T-Ocho show on VH1 until I lost so many brain cells I had to stop in fear of becoming a vegatable. 

The bolded part is what I thought after the first 5 minutes..  But, as for the Defense. That wasn't really the 1st team out there. No Hendrickson, no BJ Hill and a green dot Rookie playing Mike LB. Anyone that thinks that Myles Murphy is going to be a "starter" in the NFL is just plain fooling themselves. He was just another swing and miss by the Bengals staff looking for "value" at a draft slot.
