Corner will be an option for Bengals in free agency
Brought to you by Cincy Jungle
The recent release of highly paid Oakland Raider cornerback Stanford Routt has helped accelerate interest in the free agent market for all cornerbacks. Corner is likely to be one of the positions with the most depth once free agency hits this March. This is a good thing for our Bengals, who will be needing some help at the position.

Free Agency: Hot Corners
When free agency opens next month, there will be some big-name cornerbacks hitting the market. Cincinnati could use one, but it is unclear if the team will spend its considerable cap space on the position. For one, the team has already locked up Leon Hall long-term. And Nate Clements should be back for another season. [...]

2012 NFL Playoffs: Bengals Can Learn From Ravens, 49ers
There are four teams left in the playoffs and two of them are there because of their defenses. Here's an interesting stat: Two of the teams left had top-10 offenses throughout the regular season, the Patriots and Giants, and two of the teams had top five defenses, the 49ers and Ravens. The funny thing is the two teams with great offenses had not-so-great defenses and the two...

Offseason injury outlook good; Shipley progressing well
At the end of last season the Bengals had 19 players on one injury list or another. That total is just eight heading into this offseason.
“I think we are about as healthy a group as we’ve been going into the offseason that I can remember,” said head coach Marvin Lewis Monday afternoon after finishing up exit interviews with players. “We’ll have a few things...

Despite loss, Bengals have strong core
At the beginning of the season, many thought that the Bengals would have trouble winning three games. They ended up exceeding expectations by winning nine and making the playoffs for the second time in three seasons.
Cincinnati's surprising season ended Saturday with a 31-10 loss to Houston in an AFC wild-card game, extending the Bengals' playoff winning drought to 21 years...

Idle chatter: Bengals lossHolmgren's meltdown
Did Houston cook the Bengals golden goose last weekend?
Zac Jackson: Yes and no. Is it cooked? It sure seems that way. But the injuries to Leon Hall and Carlos Dunlap cooked it more than Houston did, even though Cincinnati had every reason and every opportunity to win that game. The Bengals have to be sick that they didn't, and they have to go forward knowing they were good...

Bengals playoff hopes fading with another loss
CINCINNATI - The Bengals found themselves in a strange position Sunday -- playing with the lead.
With two seconds left, the Texans took the lead back. In the process, they handed the Bengals their third straight loss and knocked Cincinnati out of the AFC's second wildcard spot.
Playoffs? Now it's going to take the kind of luck the Bengals simply haven't had lately....

Preview - Cincinnati at Pittsburgh
GAME SNAPSHOT
KICKOFF: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET
GAMEDATE: 12411
SURFACE: Natural grass
PREDICTION: Bengals 23-20
KEYS TO THE GAME: The Bengals lost top CB Leon Hall in the first meeting, a 24-17 Steelers win on Nov. 13, and will be taxed by three- and four-receiver sets. However, the Steelers' offensive line lacks great athleticism, making it difficult to gain yards on the ground outside...

Browns Blow Chance for Big Win v. Bengals; Colt McCoy Keeps Killing Case for Long Term Job in Cleveland
Much like that of the Browns who play a nearly identical schedule, the record of the now 7-4 Bengals is something of a mirage. Having beaten only one team with a winning record this season (the 6-5 Titans), Cincinnati was especially ripe for an upset yesterday playing without top pass-rusher Carlos Dunlap and having lost top cornerback Leon Hall to a season-ending injury against...

Battle of Ohio: Part II
The Browns and Bengals are similar teams in many ways. They both have had ball-control offenses so far with a poor rushing attack. Both rely on a solid D to win them games. Cincinnati is better and has overall had better QB play though, but they are not the team people thought they were 2 weeks ago. The Bengals have since had to face teams who win with some consistently...
