We only have to deal with this in the Super Bowl! Until then, they can do waht they want.

I dont disagree that Reader is a better player, but I pick JB standing up before I pick Reader

I believe I noted this possibility at the start of the year - but I said they may have to sign Johan and pass on a Reader extention. But good on Jonah for playing like he has, lets see how the entire season pans out. If he holds, then he has to be a high if not the highest priority. Keeing JB upright and clean is far more important then who is the DT and who is WR#2. Sorry to those 2 guys but that would be my position. What would be thr cost to franchise tag Jonah?

Shit that is funny!

And that was called 'roughing the passer', the refs are truly clueless on how to call that penalty.

From Peter Kings FMIA: https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/fmia/news/fmia-week-8-dramatic-turns-for-burrow-and-bengals-cousins-and-vikings After 40 years covering this game, I’ve come to realize how maddeningly interesting and capricious it is. Take Cincinnati-San Francisco in California Sunday. The game turned on a shake of the shoulder by one of the great players today, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, who’s spent the last three games reaffirming his greatness. Reaffirming is right, because Burrow spent the first month of the season as a liability, not a cornerstone. And on a knock-down, drag-out afternoon, with Joe Montana and old 49er friends celebrating Super Bowls past from a box upstairs, Burrow did something with 13 minutes left that Joe Cool would have done. The great ones make plays like this almost without thinking. That’s part of their brilliance. Cincinnati was up, 17-10, and trying to put the game away after a Brock Purdy interception gave the Bengals the ball at the Niners’ 17. On first down, Ja’Marr Chase lined up split right with Tyler Boyd a step behind him and just to the right. At the snap, Burrow’s eyes bore a hole through Boyd, just the way coach and play-caller Zac Taylor designed it. “Just trying to sell the perimeter screen,” Burrow said nonchalantly (does he ever speak in any other tone?) over the phone, an hour after the game. And as Boyd took a step back, like he was about to catch a laser from Burrow, the QB almost imperceptibly began his throwing motion to Boyd, with corner Charvarius Ward moving forward to shadow the WR. “Yeah,” Burrow said, “I gave a little pump fake.” Very little. Still, the shoulder tic looked like it froze the corner covering Chase, Isaiah Oliver, for a split second while Chase zoomed toward the right corner of the end zone. Burrow lofted a strike to Chase, who must have found it odd to not be skin-to-skin with a corner in the end zone. He caught it unchallenged. Ballgame. “What was cool,” Burrow said, “is it happened exactly how we practiced it. Our guys did a great job of selling it. It’s no secret we like to throw those kinds of routes to Ja’Marr—it’s a big part of what we do. In that situation, a great call by Zac.” In that situation, great execution by Burrow. He’s just so confident, so unshakeable. Now that Burrow’s achy calf muscle that erased training camp and made him ineffective for the Bengals’ toothless 1-3 start has faded—faded is right, because it’s not altogether gone—Cincinnati should be serious contenders again. The 31-17 win Sunday and Burrow’s brilliant show (28 of 32, 87.5-percent accuracy, three TDs, no picks) gave him a 111.8 rating in the team’s three-game winning streak. “It’s tough,” Burrow said, “when you have an injury and you’re playing through it. You obviously can’t do some things that normally you can. But we got through it. We got through it healthy and we’re on the other side now, it feels like. My strength is still coming along. In the offseason, I worked the most on athleticism and explosiveness and so it was tough to not be able to show that over the first couple weeks. I was able to show that today and it’s nice seeing hard work pay off.” Cincinnati, Cleveland and Pittsburgh, all 4-3, trail 6-2 Baltimore in the AFC North, approaching midseason. Burrow’s return to health could be the decisive factor in who wins the division. “We’re exactly where we need to be,” Burrow said. “And we’re going to keep getting better.” After watching him shred the Niners, it’s hard to doubt him.

That drive was too easy

Fuck me

That #11 is killing us

Who blew by him on that blitz?

Not a catch?

Purdie pulled out his inner Dalton

These are 2 good teams just going at it. Regardless of result, looks like our O is fully back. Oh, and yes, Merv Smith sucks

We need a few more Cappa's....

True. I have heard Charlie Weis and Pat Kirwan talk about this a lot on Sirius. Because of the numbers your backup OL HAVE to be versatile and not just able to cover one spot.

Ford

Accountability starts with calling oneself out, which is what the offense is doing. Step two is actually performing better. If Callahan was making excuses it would be a different issue, but he is not.

Don't the Chiefs run their runs plays primarily from the shotgun?

So Sample is our best OL?

That would have been an easy win if the O could do anything in the second half - they werre brutal

Dreadful half for the Offense

Can Frank Pollack please leave...

Hasn’t Lou in the past said he does not rotate DB’s?

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

Lamar fumbles lol...right after the pick in the end zone. Man, Ravens screwed the pooch today
