Cincinnati Bengals (Same Ole Bengals)

[CMic]

Putting this here for posterity.
Whole lot of mediocrity in the AFC. Every game seems like a coin flip.

Don't expect the standings to end in this order. Nevertheless, they exceeded my expectations.

Ravens, Chiefs, Browns to close out the season. I have zero confidence in winning any of those games. If Lamar is out again, Baltimore is winnable, but if they go 1-2, I think they’re out.

I actually think Huntley is a better passer who can run also. Tough either way

I worry more about their defense. When things go wrong for the Bengals offense, the mistakes add up quickly.

We definitely got some help with the AFC being a shit show. And we have a tough road ahead... erase any of the losses to the Jets, Bears or 49ers (all games we should have probably won), and we're not in this situation. But we're technically in first on the AFC North and if we pull off a win against Baltimore, I actually think we're in. The rest of the division has brutal games next week and it gives us room in the division if we win. Also, as a side note, I think we lose to the Chiefs and get revenge on Cleveland to end the year.

I agree, it looks like 10-7 and division champs to me. If I remember correctly, the Bengals were trying something new with the defense in the first Browns and they have since corrected whatever was going wrong. I don't think the Browns have been the same since that game.

Huntley out with Covid.

Huntley out with Covid.

So is Lamar for sure out? If so, that means they're down to 3rd string.

Ah, ok. So if we lose at home against a 3rd string QB...I don't even want to say it. Just fucking win Bengals and make something good about 2021.

In hindsight, just maybe Ja'Mar Chase was a better pick at #5 than Penei Sewell would have been.

 

[Honor&Glory]

300 yards and 3td’s in the first half.

is that good?

Yeah - Stroud’s been locked in and all 3 receivers are getting open. Hopefully, the defense can hold on. Seems like a Buckeye game.

Browns have a better team. better defense. better oline. superior running game.
But the NFL is a QB driven league. Burrow has the goods. Mayfield does not.
