Bengals defense never rests
CROCKER CLAIMS DEFENSE
IS GOING TO BE PHYSICAL
Cincinnati Bengals free safety Chris Crocker looks around the locker room at Paul Brown Stadium, and likes what he sees.
“If anything, we’re going to be a physical secondary,” he said. “One thing we’ve added is experience.
“Leon (Hall) and Johnathan (Joseph) have gotten a year older. Roy (Williams) is going into his eighth year. I’m going into my seventh. so we have guys with a lot of experience back there (in the secondary).
“We’ve added guys who can get to the quarterback — Michael Johnson; Robert Geathers is back; and (Antwan) Odom will be a presence also, and then we added Tank (Johnson).
“We feel pretty good about what we have right now. But it’s just on paper. We have to come together and just finish off what we’ve already started.”

No, I am nyc. I get a kick out of making fun of people who stick their necks out with an opinion, such as Chick and Arch. I am a “New YAAAKER” who thinks everything that ever touched the big apple is better than anything else. I also know nothing about sports. In total, I am a moron.By TouchDown Troy

Fellas, let me pass on some sound advice from a wise uncle: “Never argue with an idiot… he’ll only drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.”By Bob V

nyc.. Granted your only two years removed from a Superbowl victory which gives you some bragging rights but those rights are about to expire. Your a 500 team over the last 19 years.By collards

FYI, the Bengals did finish 12th in the league last year in total defense…Give Zimmer some time, the man is doing a good job. On a side note, if Geathers doesn’t perform this year, what should be we do? He got paid a lot of money and he hasnt done much since the raise…(though he has been injured)…
