Episode description

Paul and Jay unload their weekend observations from Bengals training camp. Now that a few days have passed, where do we now fall on Joe Burrow's early-camp struggles? Burrow, himself, communicates his thoughts about his scuttling start, if there's any panic/urgency, and if he's frustrated. Were our expectations for Ja'Marr Chase entering training camp unfair? PDJ and JM put into context Chase's unconventional road to Cincinnati, and explain why we may need to temper our outlook. Lastly, could offense lineman D'Ante Smith, Cincinnati's fourth-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft out of East Carolina University, force a revision to the Bengals' projected starting-day line?
