I didn't see the score. Who won on Tuesday Night Football?

File under "Scapegoat"

I see them winning just enough games to screw up the draft choice and taking the next Mild Murphy. OR hot rat wide receiver and the next Jackson Carman in the second.

Pay for the team or typo of PLAY for the team?

HBO’s ‘Hard Knocks’ featuring Bengals, AFC North premieres Tuesday CINCINNATI (WXIX) - The first episode of HBO’s “Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North” premieres Tuesday at 9 p.m. The docuseries will showcase the Bengals, Browns, Ravens and Stealers over the last six weeks of the regular season. This is not the first time the Bengals will be featured in an HBO series. Cincinnati was the featured team for “Hard Knocks” during the summers of 2009 and 2013. Tuesday’s episode airs at 9 p.m. on HBO and will be streaming on Max.

Probably. Cleveland has him in the breech if their coach du jour is out but he would have to ask himself how secure he would be there? Here he would also know that he would be next in line if Zac falters and in a much better, more secure position here esp after he has his fingers in the upcoming draft and free agency. Joe and Ja'Marr's offense and Vrabel's defense. Plus he has the all-important Ohio ties Mike and Pumpkin covet.

Referee explains lack of penalty on controversial pick-six Sunday's game got off to a bad start for the Pittsburgh Stealers. On the team's first offensive drive, quarterback Russell Wilson threw a pick-six and spotted the Cincinnati Bengals. However, on the play, Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt appeared to pull Stealers wide receiver George Pickens down by the helmet before the ball got there, allowing for the interception. It definitely seemed there should have been a flag thrown but there wasn't. After the game, referee Shawn Hochuli addressed the play and offered a pretty flimsy excuse for the no call. “We ruled the receiver stumbled right off the line and then there was incidental contact that brought him down," Hoculi said. "If there was a potential grab or hold, that was at an angle that we wouldn’t have seen. But our ruling, again, was that he stumbled off the line and then incidental contact occurred.” Not sure if anyone buys this but ultimately it didn't impact the outcome of the game. "When a Stealer cries, an Angel gets its wings"

The NFL has suspended Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair three games for his hit Sunday to Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence.

Not sure about replacing Zac. I think that is up to Joe. BUT I think they should be all over this guy as Defensive Coordinator. Not sure if it would be considered a lateral move but if the Bengals don't do it, someone will.

When you use the same scheme every week, week in, week out and don't make any adjustments, it ain't that hard.

Shoot me because this is like putting whipped cream on a dog turd but... we only lost by 6 points. It was not a blow out but a shoot out with us fielding a bunch of sitting ducks on D. Our D, esp on Pittsburgh's last series looked like a bunch of six graders running around playing kill the man with the ball. Just running around with no apparent discipline, field awareness, anything. Whomever was supposed to shadow Justin Fields should be cut, instantly. IF (God, how I dislike that word and hate to say this) someone had planted his ass short which the could have, Pittsburgh would have punted and put the ball back in Joe's hands. Screw it... we didn't play well enough to win and wait 'til next year with a whole new cast of characters at least as far as coaches go. Armadillo... Gone Pollack... Gone Zac Taylor... up to Joe.

When I saw that I thought "Why can't our pillow biters do that for Joe?" Not since Whit left.... that was a hella game and moment seeing him go off the field throwing up a fist when thrown out.

11. Cut or IR Sheldon Rankins. He's gone after this year, too. Who's eligible to come off IR? Kirkland? Give them some real time OJT.

Duke is on a tight budget and can only buy three guides to the draft from the Barnes and Noble magazine rack. Actually, they would probably do better if they did their scouting that way. Its been all downhill since Pro Football Weekly folded.

The Reality of Futility Has Finally Forced Its Way Into the Cincinnati Bengals Locker Room But let's never forget what a fantastic locker room it is!

Dallas is terrible. However, I can't see us beating them on Monday Night prime time and in Dallas. I was going to say too bad it can't be flexed out or they would but just looked at the Week 14 Sunday line up and it has to be the whiz poorest football slate of the year. Pittsburgh and Cleveland ... meh

T.J. Watt tries to take out a knee or ankle of Joe Burrow with a "Gator Roll" tackle on a strip sack. Cody "Not Cordell" Ford looks on...

I have it on when I'm going to be getting home after dark as a kind of welcoming night light.

Roku Channel has a fire in the fireplace streaming. Mute the cheesy music.

How's our draft pick looking? Asking for a friend,

Serious question... Will Lou Armadillo have a job this time tomorrow?

Not Lou
