Jeff Driskel isn’t leading this team anywhere besides

AJ McCarron found out he was traded Womens Andy Dalton Jersey , quickly packed a bag, said goodbye to his family and headed out to Oakland to join the Raiders.As crazy as those first few hours were following McCarron's trade from the Buffalo Bills to Oakland, the whirlwind hasn't slowed down a bit since McCarron joined his new team.He had new teammates and coaches to meet and an entire offense to learn in just over a week now that he's Derek Carr's only backup and could be thrust into action Monday night when Oakland opens its season against the Los Angeles Rams."It's not the easiest thing in the world. I'm trying my hardest," McCarron said. "I've been coming in really early, spending a lot of time staying late. God forbid something happens, hopefully I can go out there and handle it pretty well."The Raiders dealt a 2019 fifth-round pick to the Bills last Saturday for McCarron and then immediately cut E.J. Manuel and Connor Cook Womens A.J. Green Jersey , who had been competing for the backup job.Oakland had been anticipating McCarron might be available with Buffalo having drafted Josh Allen in the first round and also having Nathan Peterman in place."We kind of had our eye on him," offensive coordinator Greg Olson said. "Had been evaluating him through the preseason with the thought that maybe there might be an opportunity for some of those quarterbacks or one of those quarterbacks on that team to become available. We had some intel on AJ from other coaches that had worked with him. But we liked the player. We're happy to get him. He's been good since he's been here. He's been a quick study in terms of picking up the offense. He's been in the building from dawn to dusk every day. Just a real pleasure to have him right now."McCarron has been working extensively with quarterbacks coach Brian Callahan to learn a complex offense installed by coach Jon Gruden.McCarron said it's completely different than what he had been running in Buffalo all offseason but he is familiar with many of the West Coast concepts. The main job this week is learning the language and the formations that go with the offense."I do a pretty good job of managing all that," McCarron said. "When it comes to learning football I think I'm pretty smart. You can only play so many defenses. It's just being real familiar and knowing the ins and outs of the offense. God forbid I get in there, it's not going to be perfect. But I know how to battle and keep trying."McCarron had hoped to be the starter in Buffalo after spending his first four seasons as the backup to Andy Dalton in Cincinnati. McCarron started just three regular-season games and one playoff contest for the Bengals but got a two-year contract from the Bills that included a $4 million signing bonus.But that never materialized as the Bills went with Peterman as the starter until Allen is ready to take over, and McCarron now needs to sell the house he bought in Buffalo."It's a business. There's a lot of things that go on behind the scenes. It's part of it," he said. "I enjoyed my time there http://www.thebengalslockerroom.com/authentic-jessie-bates-iii-jersey , even though it was for a cup of coffee and maybe a doughnut. The people there are great, the fans are really awesome. We lived in a great neighborhood. It was an awesome city and we enjoyed our time there."NOTES: RB Marshawn Lynch has been limited by a groin injury all week but is not listed on the injury report for the game against the Rams. ... RB DeAndre Washington (knee) is out and DT Brian Price (hamstring) is questionable.The Bengals must replace Bobby Hart at right tackle The Bengals started the season 1-0, but Bobby Hart didn’t do too much winning on Sunday. He was often blown up on the way to either Andy Dalton getting sacked and pressured or Joe Mixon being forced to make someone miss in the backfield.At this point, it is hard to see why Cincinnati is playing Hart. He didn’t play well when run blocking or pass blocking, so what saving grace does he have? Could it be the dreaded mean streak the coaches keep preaching? If that is the case they are putting their season at risk.Margus Hunt, MARGUS FREAKING HUNT Giovani Bernard Jersey White , beat Hart for two sacks in the Bengals’ win. Hunt had 2.5 sacks in five seasons in the NFL leading up to Sunday’s game. You remember Hunt from his time with the Bengals, right? He was great in the preseason and then did nothing in the regular season. Well, Hart is so bad that for Hunt, it was like facing someone in the preseason. Per PFF, Hart allowed five total pressures on Sunday.The Bengals don’t have a backup plan behind Dalton. Jeff Driskel isn’t leading this team anywhere besides a top 10 pick. Can you imagine what will happen when Hart has to go up against a guy like T.J. Watt when Cincinnati plays the Steelers? Or how about when the team faces the Ravens on Thursday, who got six sacks against the Bills?The Bengals don’t have a ton of great options behind Hart. At this point Jake Fisher seems like the best replacement option. He showed some spurts of being a pretty good offensive tackle during the preseason. He would probably be the first option for Cincinnati. He is in a contract season Womens Mark Walton Jersey , and he has plenty of incentive to play well.After Fisher the Bengals to turn to guys like Cedric Ogbuehi or Trey Hopkins. Ogbuehi has proven he’s not a capable option, and if the Bengals had actually brought in more of a competition at tackle, Ogbuehi probably wouldn’t even be on the team still.As far as Hopkins, he is officially listed as a guard, but he has the length to possibly kick out to tackle. It isn’t ideal by any means, but the Bengals don’t have many more options on their roster Womens Alex Redmond Jersey , and they likely won’t make a move during the season. As bad as it sounds, what does Cincinnati really have to lose?Hart has been as bad as you could imagine him being, and he was playing against a team that should have made him look at least average. If the Bengals really want to keep up the winning trend, they need to make a move at the right tackle position before Dalton gets hurt.
