This is very good, succinct. Talking heads are rarely this clear.  

 

Dorsey HAS to intervene with play adjusts, finally be a JoshWhisperer during play clock headset!!

Watching some football shows today. Rachel Bonnetta might be the most annoying, horrible, unqualified person on tv.  Not only does she act like an 8 year old after a six pack of jolt cola, but she has zero insight.  She is like the female version of Michael Irvin but without any football knowledge. And she is actually reading off a sheet of paper during NFL GameDay.

Bengals playoff run last year had a lot of fortuitous things happen for them to get that far.   Bills seem to have a much larger margin of error  Would love to see a more complete game this week especially from the D line who should feast

 

I think most of us felt even more pain from the 13 seconds situation after Cincy advanced last year.  I was, at that time, POSITIVE that we would have beaten Cincy and made the SB if we had beaten KC and hosted the Bengals the following week.

 

Not much difference this year.  These are still basically the same 2 teams.  I have a little less confidence this year - but I think it's more because of the Bengals hype.  We're the better team, at home, and should win tomorrow.

The Bengals are 0-3 in games this season when Joe Burrow is sacked 5 times or more. Here is a after I went back and watched all 4 of the Ravens' sacks last week and how they achieved each. Baltimore blitzed Burrow just 3 times in the entire

Help me understand the meaning of the phrase "not for nothing." 

 

What confuses me is when people start their statement with "I mean, ....."

 

I'm thinking, how can you be explaining what you meant before you even made an actual point?

What people here in Cincinnati say is that none of that matters if the Bengals just keep winning. I want people here to image the scenario if the shoe was on the other foot. They are in year two of being a contender. So, for the Bills its the divisional round last year. Remember the 2020 playoffs? We eked out a win against the Colts in the WC round. Then, we beat the Ravens thanks to a Taron Johnson pick 6 in our own endzone. We should have lost that game. But I don't remember any handwringing about the close win. No, we were on a run of good fortune. Now, we all know what happened the following week in KC. The Bengals had a similar run last year, where they won the their first playoff game in over 30 years in the WC round and then got tipped-ball INT to win in Tennessee. But then they went into Arrowhead and won. It seems to the team and the fans that they cannot lose in the AFC playoffs. And yeah, they lost the Super Bowl but only by 3 points. Most people here attribute this to Joe Burrow being a "winner," because the stats and the eye test tells you that the Bengals should be losing these games. 

Saying we should have lost the Ravens playoff game two years ago is as stupid as declaring the Bengals would have beat the Bills in week 17. ###### speak. You sound like joe Mixon

Realistically she’s only doing what the network wants, all these shows have been reduced to a bunch of morons goofing off.

Brandt is a goof ball, but he seems to really love his job, guy to have a laugh & a beer with. Good for him.

Let's go Buffalo!

So basically Josh’s body of work gets thrown out. Perhaps it was great defensive game plan by Miami? Perhaps it’s the first time Josh has seen this and like previous seasons he learns, improves and moves on?

cheap as dirt to hire 4 street slugs to chat. Sad. Many quality women (and men) that can be both entertaining AND INSIGHTFUL. Rex Ryan sucked as HC but he’s entertaining TV, has NFL experience.

Miami effectiveness was equally on Josh AND OC. Dorsey needed to get him out of long ball myopia.

The line is now -6. Someone explain to me how it goes from -3 to -6 because of the OL situation. Seams too much?

64% of bets are coming in for the Bengals.  Smart money though is coming in for Buffalo which is causing the line to increase.  All the big bettors are saying bills -3 / -5.5 is a great deal.  So Vegas says " how about -6?" Seems like the public thinks Bengals win the game but the insiders think bills win and cover.  Vegas is normally correct and is doubling down today.
