I know it's not important but I figured I'd go grab some screenshots of the missed audible on 3rd and 1 that got Joe raging at Williams. FWIW Sanchez made a good point - it probably shouldn't have to have been an audible at all, at that point in the game they arguably should have been running it anyway. Joe tries to hand it off to Willaims: Oopsies, Williams is oblivious 😑 Another angle of the attempted handoff: Joe helpfully explaining what the can-can call and sign means to Williams:

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots into the air. "Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. "I'm a panda," he says, at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

Dave Clark, Cincinnati Enquirer Wed, Oct 11, 2023, 2:28 AM CDT·3 min read The Cincinnati Bengals were the only NFL team that had two players with at least eight receptions in Week 5. That's one way to silence concerns about depth at receiver, with injured wideouts Tee Higgins and Charlie Jones unavailable. While Ja'Marr Chase's 15-catch game broke a franchise record, Trenton Irwin had eight catches for 60 receiving yards, adding punt returns of 28 and 21 yards for the best single-game contribution of his career. The undrafted former Stanford standout has played parts of five seasons for the Bengals. What to know about Irwin: Trenton Irwin and Joe Burrow share the same birthday. Irwin is exactly one year older than the Bengals' starting quarterback. Irwin, born December 10, 1995, will turn 28 the same day Burrow will turn 27. Also born on that date? Ted Karras Jr., the head football coach at Marian University who played one NFL game for Washington in 1987. Karras' son, Ted III, is the Bengals' starting center. Trenton Irwin joined the Bengals before Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. After a brief stint with the Miami Dolphins, Irwin was signed to the Bengals' practice squad in October 2019. Irwin has played in 22 regular-season games and three playoff games for Cincinnati, but Sunday's win against the Arizona Cardinals was just his third NFL start. Irwin had just three catches for 39 yards over his first three NFL seasons. He has 24 receptions for 308 yards in 13 regular-season games since Week 8 of last season. Irwin appeared on the 2005 Bravo series 'Sports Kids Moms & Dads' with his father, Craig. A clip from YouTube: Craig, a character actor who has appeared in many ads and TV shows, was on hand for Trenton's big game in Arizona on Sunday, and Trenton gave his dad his game ball, per Bengals.com's Geoff Hobson. Hobson added that Trenton, who appeared in several ads including one for Velveeta as a kid, told Craig he was done acting when he got benched in high school for missing practice to attend a commercial shoot. At Newhall Hart High School, Trenton set state records with 285 career receptions for 5,268 yards and 57 receiving TDs. Trenton also got a game ball last December against the Patriots. After Tyler Boyd aggravated a finger injury and left the game, Irwin scored two of the Bengals' three touchdowns in a 22-18 road win in Foxborough. Irwin didn't play in the Bengals' first seven games of the 2022 season. He had four TDs in Cincinnati's last nine games of the regular season, and the Bengals' record in those nine games was 8-1. In 2022, Irwin explained how Burrow really felt about the 'Why not us?' mantra. "Joe had something to say on that. He didn't like that at all," Irwin said on the "Getcha Popcorn Ready with T.O. & Hatch" podcast. "Because he didn't like the underdog narrative. … He never felt like we ever lost a game. We just sort of ran out of time type of thing. … So that was one of my examples for him on his belief system. He said, 'Screw that thing. That ain't us. Like that's not - we don't need to carry that with us.'" https://sports.yahoo.com/trenton-irwin-cincinnati-bengals-wr-072803783.html

And if the woman's life is in danger, oh well, it's God's will. And once that unwanted child is born into a family that can't afford to raise it, oh well, get a job you lazy toddler. And if that woman is actually a 13 year old rape victim, or even if she's not, oh well, God's will again just don't look at me when that newborn goes hungry. Hey you know what else stops a beating heart? State-mandated executions in a system where you're 5-10 times more likely to be wrongfully convicted if you're nonwhite. No qualms with that though.. You only care about abortion because it allows you to virtue signal without any kind of sacrifice or effort on your part. You don't actually give a shit about the kid beyond that, or the women, or anything beyond waving your Bible around like a cudgel to make you feel important. It's cretinous and transparent. If your teenage daughter came home pregnant we both know your moral high ground would turn into a sandcastle immediately. FOH with your bullshit.

Signed my sons hat at last years training camp super nice guy

Bill Belicheck won Super Bowls with guys like TI (yeah, and Tom Fucking Brady 😆). Love the guy… TI, not Belicheck

It wasn't just that, Williams was supposed to take a handoff, Joe "can-can'ed" the original call to audible to the run. Williams just turned the other way to block as Joe tried in vain to hand it to him. What Joe was screaming and pantomiming in his direction after having to take the sack was "CAN CAN!!!!!".

First of all, don't presume to know whether Ohio has been good to me or not. Second of all, I'm allowed to denounce it if I like. It's called free speech. As for being one of the "best states in America", sure, it is if you're not a woman who wants control over her body instead of the government telling her what she can and can't do. It is if you don't mind being governed by a governor who promised to "do something" after the mass shooting in Dayton and his idea of "doing something" was to loosen gun laws. It is if you don't care that the way the state funds our schools was declared unconstitutional 26 years ago and the legislature's way of fixing it is to expand school vouchers to just about anyone. That's mine and your tax dollars effectively going to fund private schools, including religious schools. All expanding the school voucher program did was allow parents who were paying for their kids' education and could do so to reduce their burden. My school district currently has a tax levy on the ballot that if it passes, will increase my property taxes by $800.00/year. That is going to price a lot of senior citizens out of their homes. It is if you're a college student or professor who doesn't want to discuss anything deemed "controversial" in a classroom. Who decides what is "controversial" and what is not? Again, the legislature wants to decide that.

And taught to whine and cry when others teams do the same to them.

Nope, but I can imagine the number of OVI's 1 to 2 hours before the games, on the roads leading to the stadium, would increase? And unless they close the bars within a 15 to 30 minute walk of the stadium (including Covington/Newport) not a lot would change?

I was reading somewhere online that he stays out on the field and helps the grounds keeping crew until staff has to come and get him to go in the locker room. His explanation was that he realizes that he could be injured at any time and have it all taken away so he's going to enjoy it and soak it all in while he can. I guess acting can wait.

And apparently he's the only player in the NFL allowed to play without putting his mouth guard IN HIS MOUTH. Lol.

"When the walls come tumblirng down" circa 83 Melencamp...

Do you realize how bad you have to be to get Burrow to lose his cool and yell at you ?! Trayveon needs to be demoted to 4th string. Burrow could have reinjured himself on that non handoff, and then Trayveon would have been walking back from the desert.

I remember watching that play and thinking it was the most animated I've seen Joe (in an angry way anyways). Dude is locked in.

Redshirting a midround pick is a bit of a letdown considering the RB competition here isn't that fierce. They made him sound like he could be stealing time from Mixon but he can't even get on the field on ST.

As much ballyhoo as young Mr. Brown received at the draft and in the off-season, the simple observation is that what his skills may have been against Indiana… they are not quite where the need to be against even Arizona.

That's what I thought, too. Trevone missed the hand off and Joe was standing there with a live ball and nowhere to go.

I'll chalk it up as a lot of people were there outside the stadium to experience the "White Out" and the Monday Night experience.. But man, it was dangerously overcrowded. I've been to football games at Texas A&M, that seat well over 100,000, and it wasn't nearly as bad as it was at Paycor on that Monday night.

Walls closing in on Sir Feel them up . Good to see

Jefferrson or not the Lions should and probably will win this he division.

What about the here and now? Just run Mixon 25 times a game til he can't anymore? one of these backups have to contribute. which one I'm clueless right now

For all these years we're wondering why Williams never gets a chance? Well, now we probably know why. Can't play a guy you cannot count on. Probably the same issue with Evans. Time to clean house at backup RB in the off season.

man you just made me have a realization, but it brings up a new questions. 1. the realization that media and announcers do need to gas up the mediocre qbs, which i always wonder, with draft picks and qbs like Dak, Murray, richardson, pickett to an extent, though i felt he was the most nfl ready out of most, like what are people pretending to see, like i see a medium grad football school in Dak where he played nothing resembling an NFL offense, not a single nfl defence read in his time in college, comes in scrambles throws some bombs and is king, then fails for years, blunderous failures, like its 100% his blunders failing the team, and people still pump him up like he is king, and why are we pretending Murray is capable of being a winning nfl QB? but the highlights occasionally are amazing plays, and the nfl needs the hype to sell tv deals, matchups, tickets, merch, etc.. makes perfect sense... how did i miss this. 2. question being, why do nfl teams get fooled or conned into taking these players, like how did a 5'6" 133 lb qb get taken at all in the draft, did i see that richardson was the 4th overall pick? with a full camp and some weapons, guys like Dobbs, Mccarron, even andy to an extent can get you better results sooner, the ceiling is lower, but with the right weapons, anyone can success, Purdy has like 6 NFl level mid or deep passes on the year, but he has 3 insane weapons, the nfl would be nuts if more teams paid the weapons and not the QB. lets be honest, losing sanu, jones, etc and giving andy 100 mil wasnt the recipe. as butch once said talking about andy vs andrew luck, andy needs weapons, luck IS the weapon. but we paid any, cowboys paid Dak, Cards paid Murray as if they ARE the weapon. ps: burrow is the motherfuckin weapon. and currently had weapons also.

yeah that sucked... Worst one ever for me was 2005 when Carson got Kimoed Carson and Henry out off the get go was just the worst... I have had a lot of sad post game meals, but that one was the worst because I think the Bengals were the best team..... There wasn't enough beer in the world for that day...

They're taught to inflict pain .. Regardless of rules.
