Extension talks with Trey are progressing as we expected here on the B.A.D pod, as according to Jordan Schultz, the two sides of recognized a trade is “off the table” and “significant progression” is being made .🙏🏼

With the guards… a floor raiser was added, but we all want a ceiling raiser in that room. We’ll see if they wind up snagging on of the couple solid guards left on the market.

Stay tuned for major updates coming to the Bengals After Dark brand… 👀

HISTORY. MADE.

Euphoric moment for the Bengals and us fans as they sign one of the best WR duo’s of ALL-TIME for a whopping 276 MILLIONS tonight!

Above all, enjoy this moment and whenever you’re listening to this… enjoy this episode. We’ve been waiting for this moment for over 2 years and for it to go off in this manner… at the same time, at these numbers… with these structures (guarantees into YEAR TWO!)… feel peace of mind knowing that our beloved Bengals are indeed doing what it takes to win.

WHO DEY!

HUGE development today with the updates on significant progressions made on Ja’Marr & Tee’s extensions, per insiders (that typical aren’t inside the Bengals walls)

The Bengals have re-engaged in talks of an extension with Trey as well! They aren’t done… now, just a matter of waiting… and hopefully not much longer at all. 🔥

It feels easier than ever right now to crash out… but there are some reasons to not only be rational, but to have some optimism.

Drake & I speak of both phases and what the could look like and feel like moving forward as the Bengals continue to add familiar faces to their defense. 👀

These past few days haven’t been treating the Bengals well much at all. Not that today has completely turned that around… but is surely diminishing the blows.

One of, if not the most active team in all of Free Agency today was the BENGALS! FIVE signings on the first day. Just what the needed as there were multiple holes to address, and they went head first with doing just that.

Tune in as Drake & I break down what transpired on day 1. 🎧

A BONUS episode brought to y’all as Drake and I provide a rational, “non-crashin-out” approach to the current… we felt it was important to bring the rationale.

We run down the latest around the league and what’s affected the Bengals as they continue to not get these deals done with their star players.

But, above all, no crashin out over here… there’s plenty of time to make some magic happen and it officially kicks off at 12pm EST! 🔥

HUGE NEWS with Trey being granted permission to seek a trade this afternoon. It led to our Mock Offseason look 2.0 boards having to be updated because it surely wasn’t the first thing we had in mind when it came to Trey’s future here…

Drake & BThangs give their perspective on the situation and what this means going forward, and more!

The busiest team in the league on Monday were the Bengals. Continuing the much needed cut downs that started with Rankins and now Cappa, following Sam Hubbard soon! Not done yet either…

But the biggest news of the day was the official tagging of Tee. With the tag, it ensures that he’s a Bengal for a minimum of 1 more year with FULL FOCUS on getting a long-term deal done.

We’re heatin up ahead of the FA period gang 🔥

This offseason has been nothing short of eventful thus far. BThangs & Drake run through the latest news, updates & mock up our desired offseason (courtesy of Paul Dehner) for the Bengals!

The past few days became apparent that Al Golden was the one for the Bengals and BThangs & Drake run down how they feel about the decision and process with it!

In depth breakdown on what Al Golden is made of as a coordinator, Peters as the new OL coach & other new faces! Tune in.

The offseason has begun for the Cincinnati Bengals… Drake and I breakdown the latest news, updates & this “team philosophy heading into ‘25. 🙏🏼

A now 8-8 Bengals team is relying on Carson Wentz & Aaron Rodgers to help take care business along with beating the Steelers this weekend.

Drake & BThangs run down alllll of the latest, news and updates along with mindset heading into this intense, other do-or-die weekend. Tune in 🔥

10.7% chance to make the playoffs now… it’s time to lock the fuck in. 🔥

Just a measly 3% chance of doing so… but Playoff hopes are alive. Are they well? Haha, no.

Drake and I break down our mindsets on what this means for the Bengals down the stretch but I think we all align with this… it’s fun to play meaningful football any time you can. So. Let’s enjoy at least another week of meaningful Bengals football and watch some great offense. 🔥

A desperately-needed dub in every way brings out some much needed pressure from the stars. Joe stating that he would be “very disappointed “ in the front office if they don’t retain Tee… then for Tee to drop his agent that’s got in the way massively of a deal getting down with him.

The last stretch of this season is going to get so interesting, and Drake and BThangs are going to keep you up to date with all of it.

It hurts a lot to say that (outside of an obviously

horrible roster in 2020) this is the first meaningless, Joe Burrow game and his NFL career.

As the playoffs are out of reach… Where do they go from here? Is that really depends on how you want to fan. But, ultimately, it’s about how you get resourceful as it’s clear that this team has lacked the resources to be a great one.

No matter what the record is, it will be fucking awesome to watch Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Trey Hendrickson, other guys like Chase Brown, Andrei Iosivas, Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample are more. 🔥

With the season being essentially over with Joe Burrow at the helm is frustrating beyond words… but this next chapter must consist on things to build on for the future. Drake & BThangs run through what some of those things can be.

I can’t tell you that I know what the rest of this season will bring. So what’s the best thing we can lean into is watching players like 9,1 & 91 (75 & 5 too) play their best ball and ball the fuck out.

I DON’T KNOW IF THAT WILL LEAD TO STACKING WINS… but I do know it’ll be awesome watching them. This team has so much to prove, but it’s gonna be a lot of fun watching them done the stretch of this season.

Let’s enjoy it while we can. 🥂

Who’s is mostly at fault for this? The FO? The coaching? The players themselves?

BThangs & Drake break it down in depth on this episode of the Bengals After Dark podcast because we got time today. The bye came at a MUCH needed time to evaluate where to go from here and what can possibly… possibly be salvaged from this season.

The Bengals take a tough loss in BAL and now have very little room for error.

The next gear has to be hit for this team in LA to starting churning out these W’s. 5 of 6 against the AFC is the MINIMUM to get in.

It can definitely happen with havin 9, 1 & 91 on our side. 🔥

The Bengals have a ton on their plate w missing star WR Tee Higgins, Zack Moss and other key contributors to this offense heading into Baltimore Thursday night… but they gotta overcome it and find a way to get a W.

This game means more tonight. Week 10… in Baltimore… TNF… where it ended for Joe last year, let’s hope that this can be a new beginning for a run towards the bowl this year. 🚀

Puttin up or shuttin up are the two options this Bengals team has entering November… the perfect time for Joe to continue doing what he’s been doing his entire career come November & December - putting up.

Through the breakdowns this team has faced this season, one things remains constant… and that’s Joe Burrow careering this team with his greatness. He wasn’t any short of that Sunday against the Raiders.

But, as this episode pertains mostly a recap of the game and what went on before & after the game… it’s Ravens time. The biggest game of the year thus far is comin up in just two days. It’s time to give it everything they’ve got, and Drake and BThangs will break what that can look like.

There’s a lot of things that have to go right for the Bengals to turn the tide, so Drake & BThangs break down some of those things that have to happen.

Youngins to get more playing time, vets to take a back seat, and more.

And of course… in typical Bengals After Dark fashion, some pregame hype. Tune in!

It’s apparent that there’s deeper-rooted issues than just a team coming up short to fall to 3-5… and Drake and BThangs dive deep into what we think is the root cause of it, and how to navigate through it to generate success this season. You’re gonna want to tune into this one. 💡

This two-game win streak is exactly what the Bengals needed then, but what they need now is a complete win. Complete as in the offense playing their best ball with establishing an effective rushing attack in 12-personnel, winning in the pass and the run with that personnel then building with our lethal passing attack from there.

Having the defense continue to play their game. As each individual has proven themselves are quality players, PLAY. YOUR. GAME! If we get that… we will see what a complete Bengals performance looks like. That’s the goal for this Sunday against the Eagles 👌🏼

The Bengals came out victorious in NY off the back of the… DEFENSE?!

HUGE for the defense to show us who they truly are and come through clutch when it mattered most. Drake and I will break down what this wins means and more!

As grim as it looks this season… Hope never dies when you ga numba 9 and numba 1.

Drake and I run through updates and some X’s & O’s we believe can lead the Bengals to victory!

There’s too much talent on this team to be 1-4. There must be something deeper going on here… beginning to feel like a significant culture issue - led by Zac Taylor.

This offense is the best it’s been led by the best version of Joe Burrow & Ja’Marr Chase and this offensive line that we’ve ever seen.

Things have to change… but don’t know exactly where.

Joe was on point with what he said… it’s goin to take him bein as sharp as can be to come out with a win against BAL Sunday. Good thing there’s no one we trust more than Joe Burrow to get that job done.

Drake and I run through some X’s & O’s on what it’ll take on the defensive side and offensive side of the ball to get the dub. Tune in!

How the Bengas won Sunday is an encapsulation of how games are going to have to be won this season (of for now, at least). Tune in for the breakdown of the players leading to this teams current state, and more!

Breaking down how this infamous start has happened and how to generate success from here with what the Bengals have. Buckle in Bengals fans… there’s success on the rise. 🙏🏼
