Bengals are one of the worst rushing teams in the league. Mixon has only averaged above 3.5 yards per carry in 3 games this season: Carolina, New Orleans, and Baltimore. Carolina and New Orleans are two of the worst run defenses in the league.
Perine has averaged more yards per carry, but on a much lesser workload. The last two weeks are the only weeks he’s had 10+ carries. He’s produced 2.7 and 3.4 yards per carry.
The Bengals are a pretty one dimensional offense. [Reply]

I'd be stunned if Jalen Hurts was a successful QB after the age of 30, once his legs go or he gets blasted he's gonna be hosed. [Reply]

It’s a good dimension though. Overall I think the defense will be ready for it and should contain it some. Just need the offense to go nuclear on them and not let up until the game is over. [Reply]

Him, Allen, Fields, Watson (unless he ends up in prison) etc. Only QB who might avoid that is Jackson as he tends to not take big hits. [Reply]

Sure I don’t disagree. They’re one of the top passing offenses in the league, but I think it takes more balance to beat the Chiefs when they play well.
Trying to go shot for shot with an Andy Reid-Patrick Mahomes Chiefs team won’t end well for most teams. [Reply]

No doubt. They are a good team and KC will have to play a great game to beat them, but barring turnovers or dumb mental mistakes KC should win. [Reply]

Good, looking forward to crushing their dreams! [Reply]

Saw the game yesterday. Higgins got away with it on a TD. All the Bengals wide receivers do that. They must be coached to do so. They're going to continue until the NFL starts calling it against them. It's pretty bad. Hopefully, we won't get burned by it this week and they start calling it. [Reply]
