Jungletiger Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Confident but nervous, any given playoff game. We're the better team, but the ball bounces how the ball wants to bounce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griever Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Have had a little bit of a pit in my stomach all week worrying about this game. History in the playoffs is probably the biggest reason for that. I understand that the fortunes of previous teams shouldn't impact this year's team but I still worry. Call it a curse, bad luck, whatever. What I do think is if they can get over the playoff hump Saturday, I'll feel way more confident going forward and even in future seasons.

saphead Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 A hell of a lot more confident than any of those 2011-15 years, and probably just a tick more than the 09' Jets game. The 2006 Kimo-van-dickhead game I just wasn't sure, it felt like a toss up to me going in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted January 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 The only concern about this game I have is the right side of the O-line, but I think you can gameplan around that with heavy doses of Mixon away from that side of the line. Thinking the game plan could be very similar to how we were able to keep Watt away from Burrow by running the ball away from his side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Pretty, pretty, confident. We're a better team than the Raiders and our first team has been on a roll lately. IMO we have better offense, defense, and special teams. We'll see about the coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esjbh2 Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 So here is my calculation: Joe + FreakShow3 + Mixon + UpgradedDefense ---> 100% Being Cursed as a Longtime Bengal Fan + Concerns over OLine ---> 50% So that averages out to 75% which puts me in the 70-79% bracket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OU_Stripes Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 My brain says I should feel very good, and I am generally inclined to listen to it. The Raiders do have some advantages, and the game is not likely to be an annihilation. But the Bengals just flat have the better overall roster and the better quarterback. Even if we question Zac Taylor, the opposition has an interim head coach. It's all right there for the taking. I am not without doubts. I think they're generally products of the past.

The better response is Jeremy Hill and Dalton are not playing. To be honest, Burfict had one of the greatest games I had ever seen until the AB hit.
