Untitled Document Every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evening, we'll (TRY TO) update the practice/injury chart leading up to Sunday's game. The chart is pretty self-explanatory. If the player is listed as out, they're out for the game. If they did not participate, they didn't practice. If they were limited, then they only participated during a portion of practice (typically means missing 11-on-11 drills). If the player is listed as full participation, it simply mea...

Bengals hoping for a Tank turnaround

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 11:56:22 -0500

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Many NFL observers felt Tank Johnson simply didn't fit into the Dallas Cowboys' 3-4 defense, and a change of scenery to Cincinnati's more conventional 4-3 scheme would lead to a higher level of play from the former Bears defensive tackle. Johnson has yet to make an impact in Cincinnati (12 tackles, no sacks), partly because he has missed two of the past three games thanks to injury. "I think he's going to be a good player for us," Bengals coach ...

Do you dislike emotions? Do you love the Bengals? And lastly, do you like poor writing? Well, Baghdad Hobs had made something just for you.All eyes are on Antwan Odom’s immediate replacement at right end, battle-tested Jon Fanene, and heir apparent, rookie Michael Johnson.

Bengals Sign Tank Johnson...Of Course

Wed, 08 Apr 2009 05:26:13 -0500

If you’re a badboy and have been cast off by the Dallas Cowboys (of all teams), where in the world would you go? Perhaps you’d turn to the Raiders, but even they haven’t been holding true to their reputation lately. So if arrests are your thing yet you have some talent, you know you’ll always have a home with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Who Gets "Tanked" Now?

Tue, 03 Jul 2007 10:39:43 -0500

On June 22 Terry "Tank" Johnson, formerly of the Chicago Bears, was arrested at 3:30 a.m. in the Phoenix suburb of Gilbert for suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI). He was initially pulled over for allegedly driving 40 miles per hour in a 25 mile per hour zone. Gilbert police spokesman, Sgt. Andrew Duncan, said Johnson was arrested for "DUI Impaired to the Slightest Degree" but was released without being booked or charged. Two days later Mike Mulligan of the Chicago Sun-Times reported that the Bears were going to wait for the results of the blood-alcohol tests before making an announcement as to Johnson's fate. The following day Sports Illustrated and Sun-Times columnist Rick Telander had this to say about Johnson:
