Wish I felt differently. I just hate this matchup for us.

 

I think Anarumo versus Dorsey is a huge mismatch. Our WRs behind Diggs just had a nice day, but against a superior opponent that has a week to gameplan I doubt those free access plays will be there for the taking. I think Cincy's DL stunts will confuse us as they have before. I don't think we can run the ball up the middle against them. I see basically no advantages anywhere with our offense over their defense.

 

I don't trust our DL to really affect Burrow at all. I haven't seen anything from McDermott's play calling that makes me think we will confuse Burrow or make him hold the ball. The Bengals offense has been clicking and I just don't see us having the answers schematically or from our personnel.

 

But hey last week I predicted the Bucs to beat us so hopefully the reverse jinx works again.

My head says Bengals, but I just have a feeling with this one.

We’ll see, but I don’t know how anyone could have watched the Fish game and not believe NcD can’t be figure out a way to slow Burrow down.

Bengals were on roller skates with the 49ers unpredictable play action, throwing all over the place. They could not stop it. That's the key. 

 

However, I'm afraid ol Process will just process the Bills to a loss against a smart defensive coordinator.

 

Get ready for a lot of blank staring into the camera for this one.

Tua is not on Burrow's level. Tua is a one read QB, and I credit McDermott for finding a way to take his first read away, but it isn't that simple against Burrow.

 

If we have any chance in this one it will be up to our offense to put up at least 30 points, but I think the Bengals have more answers defensively than we have offensively.

I think there’s stats someone posted today suggesting Burrow goes to first read a lot.  I’ll be interested to see what McD comes up with.

I actually like the Bills in this spot. I always said it would be our time when nobody thought it would be our time. If Buffalo was a stock, we would have officially capitulated and this thread is evidence of that. Bengals on the other hand are back to being Super Bowl favorites and while I'm "buying" as far as the upside of the jungle cats the 49ers are not where they were at all the first few weeks. They nearly lost to Seattle. Imbalanced perceptions in this league usually lead to massive corrections .

31-27 Bengals.   That sucked typing that.  Think I will be close at the end,  however, which Bills offense shows up will be the difference.  

I'm hoping that I am wrong, but I don't have a good feeling about this game. 😪

It's hard to get that bad taste out of your mouth from the Divisional loss.

 

Also hard to see us beating a team that just flattened one of the best defense's in the league, considering what the lowly Pats offense was able to do.

 

Until this team can prove to me that they can beat the Bengals I can't tip them. I need to be persuaded and convinced before that becomes a possibility.
