Fuck him. He suggested that I, a fan from the very beginning, wants them to lose. Because he's stupid. Confusing my having criticism of Burrow with being a bengals fan.

Again, really stupid. I've been a fan since the beginning. You think I want them to lose and you hope I get what I want? So you want them to lose? If you read my posts all year, then you know I support the whole team and not just one player.

That's stupid. I've probably been a bengals fan longer than you. Why would I want them to lose?

What if we lose?

Watch out! It's a trap! Just kidding. It's really cool of you to offer. Wish I was going.

It should stop snowing by then.

Neither did anybody else. Didn't he do the same thing during Palmer's rise? https://www.bengals.com/news/boomer-savoring-the-ride-i-didn-t-realize-how-much-of-a-bengals-fan-i-still-was

Perfect. And why did we draft Akili instead of taking the Saints trade?

Did he clap the whole time?

I was saying that too when it happened, but it was good that Chase recovered it. You don't want to trust any call to the refs or review.

Good point. Or Clarence "Screaming Buffalo" Swamptown. If the chiefs haven't picked him up already.

As Zac alluded to at halftime on Saturday, hopefully they can get earlier snaps on Sunday. There were too many last second snaps on Saturday that takes away the advantage of the OL knowing when the snap is. If they keep snapping at 0, then the D knows when they're snapping too.

Is that legal? Obviously, it is. We should also pick up Tim "Dr Hook" McCracken and Ogie Ogilthorpe.

And he had great protection on that play.

I like the premise of those commercials. Shame it has to center around such a douche. Soon they'll have one last ad where he gets evicted.

They should've waited a week to put Mahomes in there.

Bullshit. Burrow had ample time and pocket on half of those and held the ball. If he didn't want to risk throwing it away, fine. But they were coverage sacks. And then there was the aforementioned half yard loss they called a sack.

As far as the game this week, I hate to say that I think this is the end of the road. But I didn't think we would beat KC the first time. And I didn't think we would make the playoffs before the season started. I could very well be wrong again. If we do win, I will pray that we don't play the rams. That would be a nightmarish match-up.

For some reason, a lot of people on here takes giving credit to anybody other than Burrow as a slight on Burrow. Burrow has been good in the playoffs so far, but not great. The defense has gotten us where we are. That clutch play to Chase was obviously great and I was almost certain when we got the ball, that was going to happen. But the defense got us the ball. And Mac? Wow, just wow! And where would we be without Chase? As far as Zac, the game last night shows how genius he was in the KC win keeping Mahomes off the field. Hopefully he can do more of the same this week. Burrow has been a big part of the success, but it has been a total team effort. Look at some of the great statistical QBs. Peyton Manning, Elway, Marino. Manning and Elway put up huge numbers for years before they finally won a Super Bowl. Their teams finally filled in the missing gaps to go all the way. And Marino never got there. If we win a Super Bowl this year or whenever, it's going to take more than Burrow. That's just common sense.

The titans lead would've been 7-6 if they kicked the extra point or 8-6 if they made the conversion. Decisions are made through out the game based on the score, so who knows what would've happened after that. If the rest of the scoring remained the same, then Tannehill doesn't have to throw. Just run out the clock with a 1 or 2 point lead. But I agree that you should never need to go for 2 that early in the game. That 1 point could've ended up being the difference.

Just realized that I don't recall any injuries yesterday except Trey came out late, but went back in. Is this accurate?

I was going to say the same thing and add that it was also fitting that a Logan Wilson pick set that up, which was a frequent occurrence in the rise of the defense.
