"The best thing about is they're going to have to play us honest," Mixon said. "If you want to cheat, whatever you want to do, we're going to make you pay"

 

I'm curious as to what he is getting at here.

I think he means you can’t load the box to stop the run and if you go very light they have the ability to run it on you.  Mind you they got lucky last week against NE. They had a 22-0 lead and needed a Pats fumble to hold on to win 22-18.. Should be a good game but IMO Bills win late on Allen scrambling for a late 1st down to close the game 35-32.

This guy doesn’t stop does he?  I love it

 

keep it coming Bengals

Very rare.  Dude is an idiot. 

Yeah really lol....I get stuff like this from Simms/media etc. But then not 1 player, but 2 Bengals players piled on top of that. LoL....

 

Guess we'll see how the bold strategy works out for em, Cotton

[Billzgobowlin]

We are really a Vikings goal line kneel down from this game meaning absolutely nothing

[Pete]

smash the ***** out of the Bengals and dont look back.  Here comes Buffalo!  And we are bringing Hell with us!

[wppete]

Hope the Bulletin  board is full of Mixon and arrogant Bengals. Need to shut up the haters. 

[Steptide]

It'd never be said, but I feel like these kinda comments McDermott probably posts in the locker room for the bills players to see and remember.

I doubt McD ever needs to. I'd bet the players are aware shortly after these types of comments are first made public.

Two little problems with Mixon and his ridiculous comments.  
 

1st, they are 11-4 and we are 12-3, not tied and 12-3.

 

2nd, the Bills are 7th on rushing offense, the Bengals, you know Mixon is 26th.  He if all people should keep his mouth shut.

3rd- juxtapose we are 7th in passing and they are 5th.  Not far apart.

 

lastly kind of an even match with us 2nd and then 4th in points, and 5th and 7th in yards.

 

Hes just showing an insecurity that everyone has said if we won the 13 seconds we were expected to beat them in the AFCCG.

Lol, wow! I just don't get it. I mean do they think they are intimidating the Bills or something? I just can't wrap my head around it

I think some are making more out of Mixon's comments than what he may be implying.  He said they have to go through Buffalo <to get a championship> and what better team to play against...   not really bulletin board material.

He’s not even right lol Patrick Queen is pretty good but roquan smith and tyrus bowser are meh.  Seems like after the packers game with jaire Alexander that teams think they can just get under the bills skin 

 

could also be that they are not happy about being home underdogs 

Really?   Queen was almost benched until Smith came, he has absolutely turned their defense around.  There is no question RS is by far their best player on defense.

Roquan smith is “meh”?  Really?  That dude is legit. 

[Amaru523]

The Bengals really want to do this? They're going to regret it.

I remember when the Chiefs played the Bengals, GMFB talked about how the Bills and Chiefs respect each other and talk each other up when they’re playing but the Chiefs and the Bengals hate each other. Starting to see why if this is the type of stuff the Bengals say routinely. Bills will never stoop to that level though.

The Patriots game is kind of skewed, Bengals punted twice in the 4th qtr (not counting clock runout).  They moved the ball easily and shot themselves in the foot.
Consider the following:
WR inexplicably stopped route in the redzone - interception (u buys know all too well how frustrating)
WR missed audible - pick six
Missed Extra Point
Missed FG
TD called back due to penalty - FG.
Mac Grayson Allen Jones appeared to fumble for a Bengals TD but got the call of an incompletion...
Chase dropped a bomb
Chase fumbled
Tee Higgins dropped a TD pass
Irwin had an open TD pass he misjudged.

Patriots scored on a tipped Hail Mary bomb from midfield on 3rd & 28
Patriots had ONE legitimate scoring drive.

Bengals made a ton of uncharacteristic mistakes that will cost the game if they do commit just one or two vs the Bills.

You give Mixon too much credit for thinking he knows team stats.   I dont believe there is any insecurity in that locker room and there shouldnt be.  All reports have been very respectful.  
Also, KC was expected to beat the Bengals in the AFCCG, so it's hard to say.

Schrager said this in response to the fans on twitter, not the players. KC fans have been nonstop blaming the refs for their losses to the Bengals.  They do not believe that is realistic that anyone can beat them, only the refs and themselves can defeat them.  Bengals players have a ton of respect for Chiefs players and coaches.

Sounds like he's all about the Bengals being AFC Champs last season and not getting the "credit" they deserve for it.

That was last year, Joe.  Take the ring off; it won't help you this season.

 

We know who the #1 seed is in the conference right now.  And who the #2 seed is.

They’re the defending AFC champs, so I guess he’s technically right. That being said, I think we all know Chiefs are still the big dog.

1-5 in their last 6 games vs the Bills and Bengals with the only win coming due to an OT coin toss and unbelievable mismanagement by their opposition with 13 seconds left. Hard to agree with your statement.

[Goin Breakdown]

Bangles players are starting to remind me of Miami fans.

Some of the stuff that's been quoted from Bengals players doesn't sound that respectful (like Mixon)
