What I like is people are going to be suckered into this result for the Bengals, But Buffalo have been on borrowed time for a while Should have lost to Pats and Dolphins. Not surprising they got handled by the first decent QB they faced.

It would be a 180 but our approach could be to really run the ball, a lot of short throws and control the clock. [Reply]

Both teams did this to each other in the previous game, which is partially why neither team made it to 30 points. Both teams had plenty of success moving the ball and they seemed to be doing everything they could to keep the other offense on the sidelines. [Reply]

Next week will be very different.
You have to steal possessions from the Bengals to fuck up there shit, because like the Chiefs and Mahomes you can't give them too many chances to score due to there talent. The secondary and LB corps will need to play a great game because we don't know how healthy Patrick will be. [Reply]
If you look at the stats from the last game everything was even across the board pretty much. The killer was simply the turnover. We lead 24-17 going into the fourth quarter and really had a huge opportunity to put them away there. Also on the last drive Pat missing Jet who was wide open to keep the drive alive for the win.
Last game we had no Thuney, Hardman, Clyde or Toney. I'd like to think all of them potentially being involved would make a difference here. Juju is fully healthy now too which he wasn't in that game. [Reply]
More and more I look at the Bengals OL I just cannot understand how we do not take advantage of this opportunity this week.
We are ranked third in average team sacks per game. Cincinnati? Bottom ****ing fourth. And yet they mustered 8 hits on Mahomes last time we met and we barely touched Burrow with one hit.
DL has to earn their ****ing paychecks because it's the only way we are winning this game playing two deep with that demonic cyborg Chase constantly spamming go routes every play. [Reply]

The fumble and missed FG in 4th quarter were both pretty rough. That's 6-10 points lost on 2 drives late in the game when you needed something positive to happen. They have to find a way to play a cleaner game and finish stronger. [Reply]
