• Lewis looks to go 'from good to great'

    2/19/10: Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis is looking to take his AFC North champions from good to great in 2010 and he knows that starts with scoring more points and that scoring more points starts with going downfield more in the passing game.

  • Smith's goal: Every snap

    2/18/10: Andre Smith is approaching his second NFL season as the Bengals right tackle in waiting. Frustrated by last week’s surgery that inserted a pin in his broken foot, Smith is still on crutches but is venturing into the weight room to get started...

  • AFC arms buildup

    2/17/10: The way ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr., sees it, if the Bengals don’t take Georgia Tech wide receiver Demaryius Thomas at No. 21, the Patriots could at No. 22, or the Ravens could at No. 25, or the Jets could at No. 29. All teams the Bengals play in 2010.


Q (2/15/10): Everywhere you look or read now, people around the league are saying the biggest need for the Bengals is wideout. I think the biggest needs are safety and a pass rushing DT. The Bengals pick at a good spot where there should be Taylor Mays and or the Thomas kid from Texas. Please tell me that if one or both of them is available that we will grab one.

A: Can’t agree with you on this one. The Bengals franchise quarterback just turned 30 years old without a playoff victory and he’s withering on the vine without weapons. All this “Carson Is Done” talk is absolutely ridiculous. They’ve got a top five quarterback when it comes to his arm, his physical tools, experience and his track record, but they’ve got to get him some help. Read More

"To me, it's simple; repair the offense with free agency, and build the defense through the draft. It works for a team that is on the bubble. They don't have a lot of time to waste on drafted WRs and O-linemen. They've got Matt Jones. Okay, then, my scenario of the road to greatness would be to get a guy like T.O. If there is any guard out there in FA land that would be better than Mathis or Livings, get him. Those two positions would be my only FA concern, unless you can luck up and find a FA DE that would be considered very dependable. ... There's no reason why this team should not be in the big game next season. No excuses."
