One of the nicest surprises of this past game was Chrisman. His punts were great, his holds were flawless from what I could tell (I looked real hard expecting potential mess-ups), and something subtle that I liked about him - his "ready" motion is closer to the ground and less obvious than Huber's. It seems to me it's wise to be as "quiet" as possible with that, so good on him.

Why are they reviewing this INT? Looks very obvious

You know it's an egregiously bad call when these homer announcers are telling you it was a phantom whistle.

I'm surprised he didn't start asking whether any given killer block was a hold or not.

OMG was that a well called, well executed, dominant and scoring screen run by the Bengals? Well I'll be, anything is possible. 😛

Obvious facemask, announcers: "It looks like it slipped across it!" Go fuck yourselves

This is why I hate the fucking NFL and the way it's televised: Fitzpatrick with a clear and obvious PI, holding Hurst's arm all the way, actually locking it in his own. Announcer: "Fitzpatrick with the perfect position, can't beat that! 🤩🤩

I watched it and my understanding was that he wasn't supposed be out there as a receiver on that play, something about they called to an empty set so he to go out there but didn't know the route. I believe he said Burrow told "just run a fade".

Maybe somebody pinned this thread in Mixon's locker this week lol. Say what you want, for anyone who has been watching the games this year that was NOT the same Joe Mixon today as in previous weeks, and it's not because of the OL.

Anyone else notice that in the Joe Burrow era we've typically at least been "in it" in nearly every game, but against the Browns we seemed to get trounced every time?

I think this is the first time this season the Bengals offense simply hasn't done anything different in the second half. Odd.

Oh goody, McPherson has the yips now

TIL horsecollar tackle is legal now lol

Blocking a guy with a punch to the face is legal now I guess lol

Well I hope this is what the league wanted because letting all this shit go all game results in this boring-ass shit.

Welp, blatant holds are still on the table...

I don't know why people are acting like the sky is falling, I mean, this is how we've played in nearly every game. It's horrible to watch but be worried if it's more of the same in the second half.

Not sure I can watch much more of these blatant holds being let go in the open backfield...

I'm just glad they were able to run the clock out when required (noting that the Falcons did a very good job running the clock out on their own). I'm not sure 7 total run plays called deep into the second half is going to work all the time.

For once the "Confused Andy" face late in a game was a great joy for me lol

Get Apple out of there, I don't care if they have to put Davis-Gaither in

If not for bad Andy the Saints would have like 30 points. The D just can't cut it today.

I guess they put away the nonsense plays, at least for one series.

Empty on 4th and 2 with this o-line, fucking genius

Lol fumbled before he was even touched
