Not working again at practice today, so you could be right.

It's hard to say if he was causation or correlation. They signed Gilberry around that time. Dunlap was also recovering from an injury. The whole pass rush became better. Newman and Hall started to round into form.

I do think that Crocker improved us. There were other variables too.

Offseason checklist:

1. Fire Paul Alexander [ ] didn't happen
2. Let Maualuga go, move Burfict to MLB [ ] didn't happen
3. Sign a veteran WR [ ]
4. Draft a speed back high [ x ]
5. Draft a SS high [ x ]
6. Drop Lawson, draft a replacement [ x ]
7. Draft a center and let him battle with Cook & Robinson [ ]
8. Let Clements go [ x ]
9. Bring back Andre Smith [ x ]
10. Bring back MJ (as long as he doesn't demand elite money) [ x ]

These things need to happen to take the next step

Your right there was other variables but Crocker was one of those variables and it would be nice to be at full strength for this game. If he isn't 100% though then he probably shouldn't play.

No camp was probably what he needed being so old
Didn't he have a leg problem in last year's crappy playoff game? And he has a quad problem right now so I don't want a repeat of last year's debacle.

Default Any injury update on Crocker?
Has anyone heard any update today on Chris Crocker's injury? I know he didn't practice yesterday due to his thigh injury, but haven't heard anything new since then.

Per Reedy's Twitter feed:

Crocker listed as doubtful after not practicing.

We probably won't hear any new news until the inactive list comes out prior to the game. Losing Crocker hurts but playing him when he's not healthy could backfire.... Hopefully Nate can step up. That's why you rest starters. Especially ones you can't afford to lose.

Joe Reedy just said doubtful after not practicing on Twitter , This concerns me ever since he came back are secondary has played well he makes all the calls, guess Clements is starting unsure about him at safety

Clements has been bad every time he has hit the field at safety this year, other than his one pick. Miles had the worst game from a safety I have ever seen in week 2 against the Browns.

Mays on the other hand has shown steady improvement since his only bad game (week 1) but with Crocker coming back and playing like he has, Mays hasn't gotten much of a chance until now.

Don't mind Mays in during 3rd and short because he plays the run well but not in pass coverage i can understand why he fell so far in the draft good straight line speed but not fluid in pass coverage

Mays is the best option the Bengals have right now. Since week one, he's done well vs the run and in coverage. He needs to be out there.

Agreed. I think he might be coming around. Hasn't injured any Bengals lately either.

Remember that Crocker's injury took place on the play where Maualuga gave up on tackling the QB thinking he was going out-of-bounds, but he stayed in bounds and kept running; the play continued then Crocker got hurt.

Thank you NFL....more times than not this screws teams. If Rey would have hit the QB we get a 15 yd penalty.

Last season, all the morons on this board wanted Crocker run out of town. Now they're all worried he won't be able to play. Be poetic justice to all those people if they get their wish and the bengals lose because Crocker doesnt play.
