Very good framing by @ejdionne.bsky.social capturing the urgency of the Trump threat:
"Failing to confront what’s at stake would be a generational failure. The danger now is not alarmism but complacency."
EJ marshals lots of evidence of this from many different places and presents it well here:

The Minnesota killings laid bare that Trump’s project is regime change. The goal was described by MAGA thinkers, the pattern set on Day One. The nation let his early moves—the Jan. 6 pardons, the TikTok power grab—slip by. Denial & complacency must end. Now

we as #Bengals fans , have to hope that this guy gets lucky in the draft and FA. There is never going to be an "All in" approach. His draft of defense players is a lottery. He 'won" 2010 (Dunlap/Atkins),then 2018 (Bates/Hubbard) and maybe 22/23. Not good enough.

He absolutely should see one. This seems to be more serious than #Bengals not winning or his injuries. I believe he is so competitive that his "fun" playing football was mainly fuelled by winning. And not by enjoying playing in general. It sounds like a burnout to me.
I hope he is seeing a Sports psychologist. He has been through a lot being part of the Bengals organization

@jakeliscow.bsky.social and @mikesansnfl.bsky.social would be really great if this could be the topic of your film review this week. Is it just the weak LBs? Is it play calling or general game plan ? How do good defenses cover TE?
#Bengals are bad against TEs for years now. Since 2016 there was only one season with less than 900 yards for TEs (2019 with 798)...even in the SB season 96 catches for 1083 yds. That's crazy 🤣 the only explanation is that they don't draft or sign FA LBs who can cover. And no Strong safeties either

#Bengals I know Joe threw these horrible InTs but why can't the defense stop Josh Allen running or TEs catching. Like I could call the game for the Bills. Either an Allen Run, after a Cook run and then throw to TE (no matter who) even Dre Sample would have 80 yds against the Bengals D.

Trump gives a complete pardon to former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was given a 45 year sentence for drug trafficking last year.
...and we're blowing up boats for drug trafficking.
How does this make sense?

#Bengals Burrow a bit rusty and not fully in sync with his receivers though Tinsley should have just keep on running and they have a TD. As well too many check downs to Sample and not enough running game

#Bengals calling this game now for the Pats. D is out of steam. Can't cover TEs, and can't throw passes. Effort was there today but quality is a míg mismatch.

#Bengals I think the Flacco magic is over. The injury and Chase being out obviously not helping but there were cracks in the last games. Finally D plays good and no again offense letdown. I hope he proves me wrong but looks 😞 bad

#Bengals I don't think they can win but what I want to see today is effort and fight especially from the D. No stupid mistakes from all 3 phases. Lowest missed tackles in a game this season and at least 1 takeaway. No offense meltdown. If that happens and we lose 27-20 or so, it's fine

Bengals QB Joe Burrow, attempting to come back just over two months after surgery to repair Grade 3 turf toe, won’t be moved to the active roster just yet, source said. He’ll remain on IR.
Joe Flacco starts, once again. But Burrow’s time is coming.

That's it #Bengals I want Zac, Golden and Tobin gone, and I for a long time was not calling for Zac's head. Get rid of Stone, get two good LBs , because this youth movement was a huge mistake. With Burrow you always have a chance next year even if they cant fully rebuild the D

#Bengals now it won't matter anymore but that's why it makes a difference when Burrow comes back. Flacco did a great job much more than expected but A. His shoulder is hurt and B. Its delusional to think that he can keep on playing like he did.

Don't like it for the #Bengals that Rodgers is injured, they had held him in check. Rudolph is now gonna pull some back up shit on us as so often with the Bengals against Backups

#Bengals D surprisingly good apart from avoidable penalties and that Washington run. Offense with difficulties as should be expected. Steelers pass rush too talented and they learned their lessons. As well Flacco is hurt and regression is to be expected.
