I'm curious what people think about the AD signing.

barring injuries, AP's floor is like 400-500 yards behind Ingram.

You already know his ceiling

for 3.5M a year for 2 years, seems like a great low rick, high reward move

Yeah this is pretty much exactly my thoughts, but being a fan makes me kinda biased.
Also, Maybe brees isn't so spent by the end of the season with running being more of an option.

I get you're a Bengals fan and obvious bias is there, but come on. Have the Bengals succeeded in the postseason? No they haven't so try to validate in the other direction all you want, but your Bengals aren't not who you think they are.

Andy Dalton has how many playoff wins?
Marvin Lewis has been there 14 seasons now and has this to show for it:
0 Super bowls
0 Playoff Wins
.545 Winning percentage in the Regular Season

I hate to break it to you but I think Marvin Lewis is a good coach, but not a great one and the Bengals can't sit there and say "Well we lost because of the refs and blah blah blah". Fact is they have disappointed. You can disagree but the facts are there.

This all doesn't matter because we will easily win in the first round and Andy Dalton didn't play in the 2015 playoff game.

That entire sentence is a "watch us" post. I have been watching, they've done nothing. You guys are totally disregarding the facts. 0-7 in the playoffs under Lewis.

You are totally disregarding those playoff games have never shown a full strength Bengals Team.

Dude they are 0-7 you can not make the excuse that all 7 of those games were Bengals teams without full strength. That is just hiding behind a lie.

Come on now. In 14 season as head coach the Bengals have an 0-7 record under Marvin Lewis. Do you guys think they have achieve success? They constantly disappoint with what they've shown in their franchise history.

To the guy who said the Bengals weren't a popular team. I disagree, I actually like the Bengals the most in their division. I just think they have disappointed a lot and until fans actually swallow their pride and face the facts, they will continue to always be lying to themselves about whether their team is good or not. They've won 2 conference championships in their franchise history, 9 division championships and have 14 playoff appearances in franchise history. That is a franchise who has been around since 1967. That might not be horrible, but it is disappointing.

I'm not lying to myself when their has been no game with Andy Dalton, AJ Green, and Geno Atkins in the Post season together. I'm not lying to myself when the Bengals Defense has preformed worse than their showing in the regular season in 2011 to 2014 Post-Season games. Yeah, the franchise sucks, we all know that. I just think that we will make it happen this year.

I just want my Jags to live up to all of the offseason hype. My team has too much talent to be failing every year. If my team is contending for a playoff spot or better then I'll say it's a successful season in my eyes. I want the improvement to show up on the field and the Win/Loss column.

Eagles Fan here.

I just want to see Wentz improve. If we play well this season that's a bonus but the only thing I really want to see without over-hyping myself is an improvement from Wentz, because if he can show that he's improving with each season, I know we're bound for a few good seasons. This one doesn't need to be great for me to be happy.
