00:00The Cincinnati Bengals are a mess, and I think that's putting it kindly.

00:04The offensive line is a disaster.

00:07I mean, the defense, they've invested in premium positions,

00:10and now they don't have the quarterback to go with it.

00:13So, Adam, that leads me to ask, do you think there's any chance,

00:16especially from a team that could use a wide receiver one like, oh, I don't know,

00:19T. Higgins, do you think there's any chance the Bengals by the deadline

00:22could go into sell-off mode?

00:24Well, I would say this.

00:26I've actually was on a phone with a couple of teams today.

00:28I mean, they're like, that's what the Bengals should do.

00:30That's what they should do.

00:32But that's also not the way the Bengals have operated.

00:35Now, again, what gives there?

00:37And also, I think they probably don't think, you know, like we're thinking,

00:43and they think they're going to turn it around and win games.

00:46They're 2-2.

00:47You know, it feels like 0-4, and it feels like the worst team in football

00:51because the last two losses have been at Minnesota and at Denver,

00:54and they've been ugly, ugly.

00:56But they're probably thinking, we're going to get this turned around.

01:00So, no, we're not trading our guys.

01:02But I can tell you that there are other teams that are thinking,

01:05would they trade their guys and just kind of monitoring things.
