Huge unsportsmanlike penalty to keep that Iowa drive going. If you watch the film there’s a late hit on qb that goes uncalled on the same play. Fuckers are a mouthy bunch that get away with a lot of bullshit that should be called.

I didn’t know the team I was watching in weeks 1 and 2. Today I saw the bengals return to form.

So, it’s not just an old folks thing.

The only possible trade partners are teams with Buckeye receivers who will tell their team forget him or they vouch for him.

Damn, miss those 2025 defenders.

Every single one of them is ballin in the NFL as rookies

What's most disappointing is that they lost this game exactly the same way they've been losing to the Steelers specifically for years now. Decades really.

They always seem so tight and nervous when we play Pittsburgh.

Guys who have been productive for several games suddenly get Alligator arms. Our vaunted pass rush disappears against a very mediocre offensive line.

We suddenly start making mental mistakes. Start committing inexcusable penalties. The coaches start calling the game as if they're desperate.

Like I said earlier. The Steelers are just living in our heads rent free. We don't play the same against them.

I'm really growing tired of it. I just don't see a light at the end of the Pittsburgh tunnel. They own us and it's disgusting.

Is this including the Reds?
Pittsburgh Steelers lead series 73-41-0

Maybe there's some big brother complex at play, don't know. But we have beaten them as much as they us over the last seven years. Bengals would have won today if not for going full regard twice on ST.

As long as 200 or so yards and 3-4 of those TD are in The Game, I’m good with it.

Yep, been thinking of another one like Boston in ‘98, except a few more TDs.

Might be due to indecisiveness or holding out for the big home run pass, resulting in a sack because he held onto it too long. Like today. Just a quick little pass for several yards would have been fine. We all remember last year's 33-31 victory over the squealers, and of course Flacco was QB, and led the offense on a late drive to win it. I'm guessing Flacco is more decisive, quicker with his passes on crucial drives like that, and just takes what's given.

And Burrow wouldn't have been behind late if not for the idiot who tried to pick up the fumble on the punt return instead of just falling on it.

I hope the numbers project out through 16 games.

132 catches, 2468 yards, and 28 TDs would really be outstanding.

FWIW .. The standby "expert official" on the broadcast said there has to be at least 3 seconds remaining to spike it and still have time on the clock. Not sure why that is, but that is what he said.

It’s true, there’s a specific NCAA rule about the clock and spiking the ball. It was quoted on page 105 of this thread.

Without the injury stopping the clock, it’s possible that the refs would have started the game clock after moving the chains, and Iowa could have hiked the ball with 2 on the clock, spiked it quickly while the clock still said 1, and then had the B1G refs explain why the 1 second had to be taken away by rule and the game could have literally ended with 1 second on the clock. Of course, that would have been the mystery second from the Western Mich game, and the college football world would have been outraged.

Brissett had 52 pass attempts and only 5 were directed at MHJ. 17! Went to Michael Wilson. Not saying he should or shouldn't have gotten more targets, just pointing out how alarming that disparity is.

This is why you go pro if you are a high 1st round pick. Moore just went from the #1 pick to Tua 2.0. Hope he recovers quickly, but that video is going to haunt him in the draft.

Also a good video to play after the next commercial talking about letting the schools decide how much to pay the players.

If it was up to them the kid would still be playing for free.

That was a thoroughly satisfying 5.5 points
