Cincinnati Bengals (Same Ole Bengals)

it is surreal how they have gotten here. No way did I think they'd beat the Chiefs to win the division. no way did I think they'd win in Nashville with all the injuries. And no way do I think they will go into KC and walk away with the AFC title. but I am certainly enjoying the ride this team is on. honestly, I think they are two years ahead of schedule. I do believe Burrow is THE guy. The AFC is so stacked at the QB position that each year is going to be a dogfight between Burrow, Mahomes, Allen and Herbert. and the conference still has Jackson, Carr and Lawrence (who I think is the real deal if the organization he plays for figures it out).

How invigorating to have another game coming up this Sunday. Bengals will get sick of being an afterthought and hearing about how the Chiefs will waltz right into the stupid bowl. Huge motivator (see 2002 CFB championship and McGahee's after party flyer). It would be an enormous feat if Bengals manage to win this, but we have been surprised many times this season, as has been mentioned here.

Must sustain drives down the field to keep the ball away from the State Farm insurance agent. That was a large factor in the previous game's 2nd half when they held the Chiefs to 3 points. We will see if they can do that again.

Double team (McFadden?) Hill, I guess. Is it even possible to knock him off his route in the first five yards?

And that leaves da Stillers where?

The bolded right up there...this may be the end of the road for 2022 (not conceding that by any means, but just being realistic since we have some roster holes), but if I were the Chiefs I would want everyone to shut up with that narrative because the Bengals are definitely going to use it. To me, we have to score on damn near every drive bc let's be real, the Chiefs offense is not even in the same conversation as the Tennessee offense. We did it once at home, but it will be tough to do it again in less than 1 month on the road. I believe we absolutely can with Burrow on this team, but it is just a lot to ask when the poor guy barely can get the snap before getting hit.

Just one thing real quick though, I have never rewatched a field goal so many times and McFearhim (trademark pending) is something to watch on that one. Dude barely had the ball off his foot and was shaking Huber's hand already lol, he had that much big dick energy as a rookie kicker. That dude is going to be an all-time great.

Also, Logan Wilson and Mike Hilton share the other game ball...both made clutch play after clutch play. Crazy what happens when you invest in your defense. And how about Eli Apple showing up? Freaking love it, you go Buckeye!

Hubbard and Bell both made some huge plays as well
