Shawn Springs to have surgery

I just rewatched the Bengals scrimmage again. Aside from the INT by Brunell, running totally vanilla schemes our first team offense looked GREAT. If we can get Portis and Springs back by the Cowboys game, we are going to be FINE.

I thought the same thing after rewatching the first two series. They were using a plain jane offensive scheme and ran only three running plays yet were moving the ball relatively well. I don't think anyone needs to go into panic mode just yet.

Yeah. Didn't the starting defense play three series? And didn't two of those series end in 3-and-outs resulting in punts on 4th and 26 and 4th and 17 or something like that?

The starting D looked downright NASTY to me. Daniels, Salave'a and Griffin all got really good penetration.
