- Oct 12 David Furones (X) More so than the interceptions, I look at a play like this as more indicative of any ball-patting tell on Malik Willis working to the defenseās advantage. D-linemen know when to put their hand up to bat the pass. Ā· Quoting David Furones: This angle shows Malik Willis did indeed tap right before throwing his second INT to Jordan Battle (first one was tipped, so irrelevant whether he did there). Regardless, problem was how late he saw it. Heās got Coleman wide open and he threw it once he got to the area of another eligible Battle was covering.

Bengals safety (and St. Thomas Aquinas product) Jordan Battle intercepts Malik Willis.
I don't think it was because Battle saw Willis pat the ball, which he didn't even do, but the ball was deflected at the line of scrimmage.

Dolphins coach Jeff Hafley responds to Bengals DB Jordan Battle's statement regarding a "tell" that QB Malik Willis has #PhinsUp

- Oct 9 David Furones (X) I would say minimal impact, at best. Maybe a DB can break half a step earlier if they see it. Malik Willis could also use it to his advantage as a pump fake to manipulate coverage, but heād need time in the pocket. Part of me also wonders if Battle just threw it out there to distract the Dolphins with something else to think about. Ā· Quoting I Ain't Him: The ONLY people freaking out about that dumb shit from Jordan Battle are the people who; a) Don't know a thing about this game. b) Are trying to farm engagement. Tom Brady patted the ball every single time he threw it, so did Dan Marino!! This whole thing is so dumb!! ššš

Bengals' Jordan Battle: Malik Willis taps the ball before he throws, we can key on that
NFL players and coaches spend many hours studying film of their upcoming opponents to find tendencies that can give them an advantage on Sunday.

Jordan Battle on Malik Willis: āHe has a little slight little tap before every throw though, so I feel like we could use that as a key to break on the ball. He likes to tap the ball before he throws it, or he takes his hand off, and that that gives the read the break. He's obviously dangerous with his feet. We know we got to be alert for that. Third and longs, they will run quarterback draws, and in the passing game, he will extend plays. So we got to be good downfield. DBs are plastering, so we got to be alert for that. He will take chances. We just got to be on, be alert on guys where they line up.ā

Jordan Battle: Questionable
Est. return: Oct 11
- #Bengals inactives: S Bryan Cook (ankle) S Kyle Dugger (quad) LB Swayze Bozeman (groin) OL Myles Hinton WR Colbie Young (knee) DT BJ Hill (Achilles) DT Landon Robinson Notable: Dalton Risner is ACTIVE. Bryan Cook is OUT. -Without Cook and Dugger, the Bengals will turn to PJ Jules, who has eight career defensive snaps, and Russ Yeast, who is up from the practice squad to play opposite Jordan Battle. Reminder, Battle was limited Wednesday and Thursday this week with a hamstring injury. They will badly need him to pull through and play well today. -There are 9 offensive linemen up for the Bengals. This marks the NFL debut of Connor Lew. Risner is active and playing through his injury, but they have an insurance policy behind him with both Bayer and Rivers up.

- Sep 30 Paul Dehner Jr. (X) A few notes from Al Golden on a week where his secondary is under heavy injury transition. -Slot CB right now is Dax Hill with Josh Newton behind him with Jalen Davis (and Ja'Sir Taylor) on IR. -Golden complimentary about how "unselfish" Hill has been kicking back inside for now. Didn't comment directly on if this will be long term or short-term-mix-and-match. -Said Bryan Cook and Jordan Battle both went through walkthrough today, but at practice they'll be getting Russ Yeast (practice squad) and PJ Jules up to speed, too. - Said they are "pushing" Tacario Davis to get better, working on details, specifically mentioning the "clutching." Pointed out Turner and Hill shared some of their experiences about doing that early in their career with him. Also, pointed out they have a lot of confidence in DJ Ivey (who notably is listed above Davis on the new depth chart). -Golden said he thought the LBs did a lot of good things in the game on Sunday, but obviously need to clean up theā¦
