1st & Goal: Dave Lapham, Bengals Radio Analyst/Former Offensive Lineman

Room seasons which includes doing closer to the viewers.

We have four domes to figure out your team's future. Each time, no. The Bengals run last year.

We just came out of nowhere was the energy that Dan Hord and Dave Lapham had on the broadcast.

Remember, well known that was awesome after every game-winning field goal that the Bengals had her every big when in the postseason.

Now we get to see what's in store for your number three of Joe Borough in Cincinnati and how they could find a way to get even better from a year ago. Let's go out to the former Bengals offense. Lime does a great job in the radio booth Dave Lapham Dave how are you are you doing, sir. Don doing fantastic. Can't complain.

I'm sure everyone starts conversations with you talking about Joe Borough and Jamar Chase. I was on the defensive side of the ball, because last year in the playoff run that defense played great football, especially what they did right at the end of the first staff and going into the second half and overtime up against Kansas City. What will the defense look like this year in your opinion, the look look pretty solvable in a room with a great job with personnel. Last year's got a lot of position with players on the Sam Harbour Pointe defense many to come down the dock or worse. The pastor and the nickel against the chief like to talk about. He played in the spinal homes at the linebacker position goes to school: high school safety. Initially, the figure moved to linebacker to figure out how stable this could very very skilled athlete, you know that that's one example he will go three safeties and give the no a lot of different looks out there to patch up was kind of befuddling computers and the secondary Broad Street and drop a it was amazing. I mean help the care she chased a 3.1 in the second half of the regular season just walking Jackie and increase That defense back in camp killer brick Nebraska muscle surgery man's actual like is the real deal. I called ground quickly and flag football field to the permit to make make plays drafted legal support so this kid is helping on special teams and helping will closely help first lesson 20 points McClellan's and during the course of the plow seven different players buying for intersections, intersections, and forking including the Super Bowl recovered a fumble flavored nine takeaways only to give way you want +7 at the most opportune time to do it and get those extra possessions and taken possessions away from your point was a big reason why I still think Trey Hendrickson on the defensive line is one of the more underrated players only go when he's been able to last two years is been sensational about all how special he always makes people often sublime. He never, not your position player tremendous give off tremendous first girl separately strong in thinking he can shrink a pocket. There is no doubt about it.

The sky is clear exceptionally well expect applicant this season for sure next down Dave Lapham here with us and we know the offense line for the Bengals is not good a year ago. They almost won the Super Bowl which is so tough to even imagine without the offense aligned with client now this offense aligned you got some significant players in some big pieces on it. How is that group forming coming together. The philosophy that Jack Taylor has written about happily same plus preseason the start of what so be offense when the group is not taken a snap and appreciated. Now they have been together for a limited amount evening practices during the preseason, because LC while Congress had a back issue description was back so he's been a little bit limited. I Have a core muscle issue newly stated train canopy was limited initially but can't take care of some Collins walked in those two days against the Rams that was almost no game speed conditions. They just didn't take people to ground tackle company offense and defensive line pretty good talent that the Bengals offense allows working against and that was the first time that the group they hope to run out there in their regular seasonal Turkish Pittsburgh Steelers were able to work together look pretty good to me. Ted Karas is been solid Alex Of the same college is a big physical guy 111 public healthcare meetings is a tone setter Joan starter from last year and is probably going to be a starter this season for the Cincinnati Bengals met often sublime. So they've re-created some of it might come to court.

Wilson will be the starter to left card statement for throne so I think is much better in October than that on September wants to get a lot against corruption against quality opponents. I think it's pretty. Last year check 70 times the regular season post 19 times the postseason along sex 16×6 corners and play second half against the Rams sex six times a game against the types of plastic sack nine times. Somehow the way to limited assumptions and those three receptions trump 99 sacks that allow the next down Dave Lapham, Zach Taylor is the head football coach last year with his team did what was unbelievable. We know the first years didn't go the way that he wanted to be what you think he is, his head football coach I think is a culture builder on you.

I think that pretty good job of you got to be classified as a players coach told me "policy young guy" in the late home inmate again job is been provided pushing all department alternative to have multiple important is taken that build a strong culture, so we must not be very, very horrible job carry you through the diversity during the season sure what she reduced the playing swamp.

Scrape your face in the first flow question will take you through the storm and the final down wrapping up with Dave Lapham, former Bengals offense.

Lime does a great job in the booth with Dan Hoar down the Bengals radio network G.I. Joe Borough Jamar Chase. So what else is there to say we know how great they been in this league, and Jamar Chase is one year and the Joe Borough season in half because of the unfortunate injury in his rookie season. What's the next step for these guys because man they were unbelievable what they were able to do a year ago were no question about it and I think I think that the next step is Jamar Chase doing what he did this off-season not being satisfied with your rookie worked his tail off of the track coach and his company came back 5 pounds lighter unintentionally was really trying to lose weight for the work so hard loose conditioning is stronger and faster. He's hungry you still hungry that's that's the key and taking all pleasing numbers again because it wants to achieve off most teams in the National Football League, or shape. If you want if you want to try to double Jamar Chase regarding the coaching is doing the job of learning online up everywhere, not just as a split and is annexed climbing up as he is a pluckers lineup is one spot. Also be harder.

He's not just one spot with Gallagher's just double-team right there so utilizing a lot of different ways football intelligence script really good football IQ is initially think it's a stretch this turnaround for Jabbar is really something we did.

LSU was just unbelievable and then no one could've predicted the Bengals would've been in the Super Bowl last year and I must win the damn thing. When the season started in five years from now, or even 10 years from now. Dave Lapham Howdy think we'll talk about Jabbar talk about him is the is one of the best or to play the game right IQ… Kind of mind his football mind is just you know the movie a beautiful mind you see the answers to the test. Now you see support happens diagnosed to start all out so quickly and the very can make every thrall is extremely accurate.

All in tight spots on the knees. Here's the real deal, total children, but know I think that the very very consistent in quantity very very high level. For a long time we get into the season know if you think of the Bengals anymore. I believe in them because I believe in the quarterback and also I Jamar Chase and the other talented players they have on the rosters any concern, though, that maybe they take a step back because it's where they should be getting the respect that I keep on feeling like I hear people say and I'll take a step back this year was one of I will record last year want to play in franchise history will part-time split number one other playoff games were home number four seed on the road not to gloss to get all of the settlement with their knowledgeable team. I played on the 1980 wants all 16 weekly.

I lost the first round of playoffs following your living 1 o'clock in the next year 2013 1988, 89, I didn't even make the playoffs, 18 may classify games like five points or less.

So this football team could set a record, you will actually so correctable look playoff when they could be the first playoff team and keep in franchise history to win a playoff game. The following year plus the first ticket to medication think I can connect that document – 1070 again teams they played last week and next job well done.

I'm not sure that will be enough to win the division usually can win stretching the playoffs which one of you first want to get the playoffs in the next post when the division it seems like this division is coming down to then and then also the ravens Steelers who knows to be starting week to week at quarterback and when you look at the Brownsville Watsons out for the first 11.

You agree that this division is really between the Bengals and the ravens a shift.

I guess on paper that would be the situation you know because Zürich is your Savior. Other challenges and don't know how the other going on pulled the workout rating/21 guys in IRM 12 starters season ended, including Mark Jackson a bunch of other important when the Bengals play the ravens toward the end of the season.

There were crippled football team in the Bengals took the damage of the time Borough's roof over €500 connecting the judge delegated Kelly three 4900 yard eight touchdowns or something to football games against ravens.beautiful ravens team this year. Menasha blood appreciated as always thanks must review the banks of the sum shall be talking to you throughout the season
