Blogged under Bloglockers,Breaking Bengals News,Front Page,General Bengals Talk,Injury Reports by admin on Tuesday 16 August 2011 at 1:51 pm

The Bengals have lost 23-year old rookie linebacker Dontay Moch for the next 8 weeks after he broke his left foot in the pre-season opener against the Lions.  He made 1 tackle against the Lions.  Moch was picked in the 3rd round because the Bengals had high hopes for him down the road.  He was going to provide depth this year while learning on the job.  This is a bigger setback for the Bengals than most probably believe because Moch was going to, and he still might, get a lot of P.T. in 2011.
