As a bengals fan has been such a frustrating season. A botched snap. And a missed flag . A little different and you’re 6-4 and 3-0 in the division. But ifs mean nothing and football is a cruel mistress
Maybe they talk about it in a different segment, but it feels like they weren't spending nearly enough time here castigating a Bengals defense that utterly collapsed in the second half. The offense scored 34 points. They did their job. The defense gave up 35 points. They failed to do theirs. Also, I really do love the notion that NBC could flex out of a Cowboys game because they're doing so badly.
Wrong. It wasn’t “the bengals letting them score” it was the refs not calling the holds on the ratturds they were calling in the first half. The nfl called the head ref at halftime and told him to stop throwing the flags on the ratturds. No way a team goes from committing 8 penalties in the first half and none in the second half. It’s fucking ridiculous
Can we talk about the quality of games we're getting on Thursdays right now? There've been a number of them, versus recent years where we got pretty subpar games.
The Bengals can't play with a lead. They don't do the dirty work. They can't run, they can't get stops. All hallmarks of good teams. The Bengals are a bad team with a good QB. I understand not being able to quit Joe, but it's very easy to quit that team.
@@SE-gs6gdsomething missing? A consistent running game. A good head coach. A defense that isn’t a complete embarrassment. A WR2 that isn’t consistently injured yet demanding to be paid. Did I miss something?
@@badbrains28 you fire Zac and you fire Lou and probably even Duke and you hire a competent GM. Then you hire Ben Johnson as your head coach and have him select his own DC.
Joe has better numbers than every QB than Lamar and Jamarr is the best WR in the league this year. They can't help the defense isn't tackling this year and can't get stops consistently
@15druck and Ravens defense is world class? Get your excuses out of here. Joe missed back to back deep balls and 3rd, and the 4th. Chase brown fumbled, Taylor britt didn't catch a ball. Ravens win, bengals lose. See ya
True & ima steeler fan they really only gotta catch like Denver/Chargers think they got LAC comin up & maybe Indy for the WC definitely not dead but close
I do not understand the 4 and 2 where burrow threw an ugly pass to someone else other than chase. Instead of checking it down for a quick 1st. Like wtf was he thinking
Going for two just lost them the game immediately. If that was the plan then they should have bled the clock. Going for two when you’ve left the Ravens with 0:37 secs and 2 timeouts was pointless.
They also should’ve been able to win against the Chiefs. They’re literally 3 plays short of being 7-3. That’s how close 3 of their losses, to the Chiefs, and the Ravens were. This is sickening. I’m so sad for Burrow right now.
@ whatever man. Lamar hasn’t reached a SB bowl yet. I don’t know what you’re watching. Good quarterbacking is good quarterbacking. I don’t care about the comparison bullshit that most fans love to chew on or go on about. I just like football and I like my team. I like supporting my guy who I know plays like and is an elite QB who doesn’t give up. There is no coping, you are where you are. And the Bengals are literally 3 plays away from being 7-3 THIS YEAR. But they are 4 and 6. Plays/calls either didn’t go their way or the teams shortcomings on defense have plagued them consistently. That’s where they are. Kudos to teams that get the edge and that are doing well. I just know, I’ll take my guy against any, in terms of quality of play, toughness and ability. And what I’m really saying is, Joe has played well enough for them to be 7-3. But they aren’t. I’m well aware of that
AND SCREW ANY OWNERSHIP BY ANYONE IN THIS POST. THE RAVENS ARE A 5-5 TEAM MASQUERADING IN A 7-3 TEAM'S RECORD......AND NEITHER OF THESE TWO ARE BEATING THE CHIEFS SO STOP FLEXING FOR YOUR 3RD CLASS TEAMS.
Why do people keeping thinking the Bengals are going to the playoffs? It's 7 spots. 1KC 2Bills 3Ravens 4Pitts 5TX 6Chargers/Broncos 7Colts/Jets The Jets are the only team that has a losing record 3-6 compared to the Bengals and if the Jets win this weekend they will be tied with the Bengals. If they both have the same record at the end of the season then the Jets will get the final spot. Cmon man stop trying to put the Bengals in the super bowl. That ship has sailed.
the Bengals beat the Chiefs in a playoff game almost three years ago.....to most of the NFL media that means they must be good regardless of how many games they lose LOL
Bengals play the chargers and broncos. They only have to tie their records if they beat them. Its possible. But I really want Zac Taylor and Duke Tobin fired.
@diamondrg3556 they do have a chance and they have a favorable schedule but so do the colts, Broncos, Chargers and Jets. It's going to be a stretch because outside of the Jets everybody else has a winning record. We will see. I agree...fire the HC for suuure
Why are they talking about the Bengals like they're drastically better than they actually are lol their defense is abysmal, and the only teams they've beaten so fat are teams that are 2-7
YOU ARE.....WHAT YOUR RECORD SAYS YOU ARE. AND THAT WILL BE 4-7 WHEN THE CHARGERS GET DONE PUNKING THAT PATHETIC EFENSE NEXT WEEK. (D LEFT OUT INTENTIONALLY)
Bengals peaked in 2021. It's been downhill every year since. They haven't beaten a single good team this year. And they've lost to the Patriots. They aren't good.
Lol... back in the afc championship the next year. Lost on a penalty. Bengals are a bad organization carried by the best qb. Give burrow Andy reid...Steve spagnolo... and that defense and o line. He'd be undefeated too
@@robogreek3157 Jamar Chase is what makes Joe Burrow look like a top five quarterback when in reality he is not top 10. The money that was given to Burrow should have been given to Chase, the greatest Cincinnati Bengals skill position player of all time.
@ I never said he was a terrible quarterback, I’m just saying that he is average. He is an average quarterback without Chase as his number one wide receiver. Even his Heisman campaign, he had two of the top three wide receivers in football not to mention three others that are currently in the NFL on that same roster. The quarterbacks that they compare him to like Jackson and Allen never had that type of help in their careers, but yet have been better than he has.
The bengals defense: “we had them in the first half tho ngl” As a Joe burrow and Jamar chase fantasy owner I was pleased as a bengals fan ITS ALL JOEVER!!!!
Burrow balled out, but on two 4th downs and a 2 point conversion he was not good enough. You can't highlight how good he was without talking him missing the 3 most important throws.
Had his facemask yanked for the second time that drive on the 2-point conversion attempt, and Gesicki was held. Three missed calls on the game-deciding drive. Three is a BIG number for missed penalties on a drive of that magnitude-especially ones so obvious. Wouldn’t hurt the officials to do their job there just one time
With the three mistakes you highlighted, Burrow still has a great chance to take the lead with about 30 seconds left if the officials don’t look the other way. Heck, if Taylor Britt catches a would-be interception that hit him in the chest a couple of Ravens’ drives earlier, then Burrow trots out onto a short field in a tie game-where I believe in my BONES he takes a 35-28 lead to put the pressure back on Lamar in the closing minutes. Context matters
That's like the 10th team that's asked for Bill this year after most of y'all clowned on him getting fired and not getting hired. You don't deserve him. Plus he would trade Chase for assets in a heartbeat. He costs too much for how little he's impacted winning this year, and the Bengals have a lot of holes to fill that won't be possible if he's paid. Be careful what you wish for.
Literally every single snap, there’s pressure on Burrow within 1.5 seconds. Meanwhile, Lamar floats around pondering life until he’s comfortable throwing. And even when the defense decides it might be interesting to put any pressure at all on Lamar, he’s literally a bar of soap and is unsackable.
They’re only allowed one more loss if they want a playoff birth…. 11-6 last year CLINCHED the #2 seed in the AFC. Also bengals made the Super Bowl being 10-7
AGAIN.....PLEASE FORGET THE BENGALS.......THEY SUCK! GOOD LORD, WHY CAN'T YOU PEOPLE QUIT BAD TEAMS? NO NEED FOR A PLAYOFF BERTH FOR A TEAM WHO CAN'T WIN ANYTHING. LET THEM GO, PLEASE!!
No it was not... 38 secs left. Lamar tends to make mistakes in clutch time. HORRIBLE DECISION. And funny on 4th and 16 vs the chiefs they decided it was worth the time. Give me a break
@@robogreek3157 you always go for 2 on the road, also it was clearly an offensive game, you keep their play makers off the field (Lamar, Andrews, Henry) and you keep your playmakers on the field (Burrow Chase)..
Guess we’re pretending that last play was the only “should be” penalties that affect the game huh. You don’t want to go down that road, unless cherry picking plays makes you feel better.
I love the call to go for the two points, I think (especially recent) history has shown that it's the right call. However, I was a little underwhelmed at the play call. I don't like a basic drop back on that, I would have much rather seen a misdirection and a race to the opposite corner. Like a reverse or even a student body left naked bootleg right, or even one of those Andy Reid type fake QB drop back shuffle passes to the RB right up the middle. Just something more creative than a basic drop and try to connect with someone who's got 1-1 coverage. I know Joe was lighting it up, but I like the high percentage play better.
They haven't beaten a team that isn't currently 2-7. If they don't make the playoffs, Burrow would have more playoff-less seasons in his career than playoff seasons.
The Bengals are done. They may break .500 but making the playoffs. They're small market team and the NFL isn't interested in small market teams. They've been jobbed with calls in two games ---- the announcers were talking about the no calls on the final drive last night. And Cincy's defense sucks.
Bengals still have too many warm bodies cashing checks on the O line. The pass rush is Trey only. Tag Tee again and get the trenches sorted next season, just get through this one healthy.
I dont entirely hate going for 2 but at the same time, felt like desperation more than belief in the team. Lemar just got away with a bad pass that should have been picked on previous drive. Kick, let everyone catch their breath and hope to win a coin toss and end it with a TD, if they get the ball first, maybe showing the D you still believe in them will help find that extra gear. You have to have your ear to the ground and that never felt like a time when oh yea, they are rolling, just win it. It was more like, they are keeping up just barely let's throw the haymaker and hope.
Thanks for believing in us Rich. im losing faith every week but man the bemgaks are just different when theyre in the playoffs...if we can just get there...
GIVE IT UP, Rich!!! There’s just too many AFC teams the Bengals have to pass for them to have a shot at wildcard spot. They had their chances, but their defense was their undoing and the reason why they won’t be making the playoffs.
How do you figure? They’re only behind 2 teams right now. They don’t have much room for error, but they’re not done yet. The Chargers and Steelers are must win games though.
Im sorry, i was told justin herbert was mr. Hypothetical. Joe burrow just got 60 seconds of if this then that. Yeah stuff happens, maybe joe burrow just doesn’t have the “it” factor
The Bengals have been dining out on their win over the Chiefs nearly three years ago in the AFC title game long enough. To people like Rich, and he isn't alone at all, this is why they talk about the Bengals as if they won a championship and deserve the benefit of the doubt. No other team in the NFL would be treated like this with their record and shitty defense.
Made the AFC Championship game again a year after beating the Chiefs and lost by a field goal at Arrowhead in the final seconds. Looked like a darkhorse AFC contender by the middle of last season before Burrow’s season-ending wrist injury. Have played one-score games against everyone except Philly despite their struggles on defense. Burrow and Chase are playing incredible ball-near the top of the league in terms of production at their respective positions. The idea that they should be cast aside before they’re mathematically eliminated from playoff contention is petty and wrongheaded
So goddamn angry at the management of this team. Should’ve payed Chase already, he’s only getting more expensive the longer you wait. Could’ve picked up a piece for the defensive line, that besides Trey, IS TRASH. Never touched Lamar ONCE!!! They have cap space! And they sit around while Joe is playing his f’n heart out, and getting his face bashed in. It’s goddamn deriliction of duty what they’re doing to these guys!! COME ON KATIE AND DUKE! Get your heads out of your fkn a$$es!🤬😡
Honestly depends what your expectations are, with respect to “giving up”. Is season #57 the one the Bengals finally win something? Nope. Maybe lucky #58 will be. They’re a good team, just not good enough.
They've got to go prob 5-2 (assuming that a 9-8 record could get in, which maybe this year, who knows yet). There's no reason this version of Bengals can expect to play lights out every game the rest of the year in all phases. Their offensive light show like last night was against one of the worst pass defenses in the league.
@deemity7557 that's definitely possible, that & Chargers are a must have for them, but considering their issues and inconsistency not sure they get them, they're getting a lot of benefit of the doubt from their teams of 2-3 years ago.
Couple penalties could have called on that 2 point conversion? COULD HAVE CALLED? LOL! For God's sake, try "MUST HAVE". I'm a Turkish fan enjoying NFL for 20+ years now. These officials are worse than scandalous European football (i.e soccer for some) referees this season. Kudos to Mr Al Michaels pointing out the atrocity; in his words "So FRUSTRATING!".
Burrow is a Stud QB, true leader and is getting Fucked by ownership for not building a complete team around him cause D is complete trash. They need to sign Chase and should of traded Higgins since they are not going to pay him and he missed at least 6 games a year. They def have been on the end of some real bad calls but blowing leads should not happen. also I think taylor should be gone after season
Rich.... soooo I'm a Chiefs fan and I hear everyone KNOCKING them. My God all they've done is play more games than ANYONE Team in the last Two Years and Won back to Back SBS. They've been and still are riddled with injuries this Year. They have one of the toughest schedules in the NFL. They are now becoming hated for their Greatness which I get. Ok soooo maybe they have injuries this Year and are a bit tired and worn out after the last two years... maybe Mahomes has had an off Year.... Maybe the Ravens and Bengals just had an Offensive game for the ages... Maybe Detroit is playing lights out. However the Chiefs just WIN. If you listen to Burrow... do you think he'd rather have the Wins or the Stats ? People amaze me... I love big game stats.. but what I love more is WINNING. The Chiefs are 8-0 and on a Winning streak of 14 games... it's very close to be a Record Breaking Win Streak. Ohhh and you know what we have that NONE of those Teams have ? A Great Defense.
Couldn’t agree more! Rich loves KC Brockmann hates KC because he knows that we will reach NE status very shortly. All Mahomes does is win He doesn’t care if the score is 10-9 He just wins End of story He’s got that Brady vibe
You act like the Ravens don't have their own flaws, they could barely move the ball by running last night and that's supposed to be their bread & butter
@@Willtellthetruth yes the ravens also have flaws but they aren't on the verge of not making the playoffs like the Bengals so he fact that they haven't one against a good team yet is a major flaw if they intend to make the playoffs and win
Here are two open secrets: 1) The Ravens defense holds on every play. 2) Joe Burrow is universally despised by the corrupt NFL refs. And NO, I am not a Bengals fan. I'm an objective viewer of the League, period.
Womp Womp game is over cry baby Bengals fans get what they deserve ever since that Burrowhead comment. Two open secrets: 1. There is no rivalry with the Cheifs. 2. Mahomes is still better than Burrow and Burrow isn't even the best QB in his division.
The Bengals wins are against the Panthers, the Giants, the Raiders and the Browns, a collection of teams that are all 2-7. Don't give me this they're going 5-2 the rest of the season when they have 4 games against potential playoff teams left.
5 losses by a combined 16 points. Even the 20 point loss, to the Eagles, came down to a bad half.. The Bengals have shown they can beat anyone and also they have shown, they can lose to anyone.
@doge-isbetterthandogs7979 no... this version of the Bengals hasn't shown they can beat anyone. By the evidence of the games played they've shown they're capable of beating the worst teams in the league and scoring moral victories against everyone else.
Bengals aren’t making the playoffs I don’t see it this year Pittsburgh will sweep em Chargers will win That’ll be it I want them out of the tournament 🏟️
I’m done watching football. It’s very blatant that the nfl is rigging the games. They missed at least 30 penalties against the ratturds. 8 on the bengals last drive alone. Also it’s funny that in the first half, the ratturds had like 8 penalties and they only had 7 points but in the second half they had 0 penalties on offense. Like they gonna be able to “flip the switch”. The refs were called and told to stop throwing flags on the ratturds and they did.
As a bengals fan has been such a frustrating season.
A botched snap. And a missed flag . A little different and you’re 6-4 and 3-0 in the division.
But ifs mean nothing and football is a cruel mistress

Let's face it, defensively only the cowboys are worse than the Bengals, in the way that matters, points. And tackling is a joke in the NFL now.
the Bengals have a losing record when scoring 30+ points. It's ridiculous
Wrong. It wasn’t “the bengals letting them score” it was the refs not calling the holds on the ratturds they were calling in the first half.

@ because the offense is so satisfying to watch that’s why 😂 my favorite teams to watch every year are chiefs, bills and bengals
It's like deja vu all over again. Lamar deserves to be MVP so far, but aren't we all just waiting to see if he can do it in the postseason?
The 2 pt conversion was the right call, but the refs just decided that a pi, a hands to the face or unnecesary roughness was not worth their time.
And a hold on Van Noy and the guy getting dragged down which cause the incidental facemask. Don't act like the refs were the reason they lost

The Bengals are done. They may break .500 but making the playoffs. They're small market team and the NFL isn't interested in small market teams. They've been jobbed with calls in two games ---- the announcers were talking about the no calls on the final drive last night. And Cincy's defense sucks.
If rich could tell me a time at the end of the game where he wouldn't go for 2 then I'd take his advice seriously
This is sickening smh. Who talks about a 4-6 team like this
Bengals still have too many warm bodies cashing checks on the O line. The pass rush is Trey only.
Tag Tee again and get the trenches sorted next season, just get through this one healthy.
Totally agree with Rich about Burro.
You miss spoke Burrow did NOT have an interception in the game, it got called back
Their defense was not bolstered before the trade deadline...the team isn't supporting Joe burrow
The basic novest knew that the Bengals defense wasn't ready for this season. 😡
This is when losing to the horrible patriots week 1 comes back to bite you
I still believe Bengals have chance.
I dont entirely hate going for 2 but at the same time, felt like desperation more than belief in the team. Lemar just got away with a bad pass that should have been picked on previous drive. Kick, let everyone catch their breath and hope to win a coin toss and end it with a TD, if they get the ball first, maybe showing the D you still believe in them will help find that extra gear. You have to have your ear to the ground and that never felt like a time when oh yea, they are rolling, just win it. It was more like, they are keeping up just barely let's throw the haymaker and hope.
Refs keeping up the narrative
Thanks for believing in us Rich. im losing faith every week but man the bemgaks are just different when theyre in the playoffs...if we can just get there...
They have to shore up their defense, the Bengels' D is not very good right now.
Football gods showed us again, take the field goal.
GIVE IT UP, Rich!!! There’s just too many AFC teams the Bengals have to pass for them to have a shot at wildcard spot. They had their chances, but their defense was their undoing and the reason why they won’t be making the playoffs.
How do you figure? They’re only behind 2 teams right now. They don’t have much room for error, but they’re not done yet. The Chargers and Steelers are must win games though.
Man im hearing ALOT of IFs lol feels like ive only been hearing those since the bengals lost that superbowl almost 4 years ago now 😂
Im sorry, i was told justin herbert was mr. Hypothetical. Joe burrow just got 60 seconds of if this then that. Yeah stuff happens, maybe joe burrow just doesn’t have the “it” factor
The Bengals have been dining out on their win over the Chiefs nearly three years ago in the AFC title game long enough. To people like Rich, and he isn't alone at all, this is why they talk about the Bengals as if they won a championship and deserve the benefit of the doubt. No other team in the NFL would be treated like this with their record and shitty defense.
Made the AFC Championship game again a year after beating the Chiefs and lost by a field goal at Arrowhead in the final seconds. Looked like a darkhorse AFC contender by the middle of last season before Burrow’s season-ending wrist injury. Have played one-score games against everyone except Philly despite their struggles on defense. Burrow and Chase are playing incredible ball-near the top of the league in terms of production at their respective positions. The idea that they should be cast aside before they’re mathematically eliminated from playoff contention is petty and wrongheaded
So goddamn angry at the management of this team. Should’ve payed Chase already, he’s only getting more expensive the longer you wait. Could’ve picked up a piece for the defensive line, that besides Trey, IS TRASH. Never touched Lamar ONCE!!! They have cap space! And they sit around while Joe is playing his f’n heart out, and getting his face bashed in. It’s goddamn deriliction of duty what they’re doing to these guys!! COME ON KATIE AND DUKE! Get your heads out of your fkn a$$es!🤬😡
Honestly depends what your expectations are, with respect to “giving up”. Is season #57 the one the Bengals finally win something? Nope. Maybe lucky #58 will be. They’re a good team, just not good enough.
They've got to go prob 5-2 (assuming that a 9-8 record could get in, which maybe this year, who knows yet). There's no reason this version of Bengals can expect to play lights out every game the rest of the year in all phases. Their offensive light show like last night was against one of the worst pass defenses in the league.
Broncos play Bengals which will likely be the matchup that decides the 7 seed assuming that Pittsburgh/Baltimore is 5 and Chargers are 6
@deemity7557 that's definitely possible, that & Chargers are a must have for them, but considering their issues and inconsistency not sure they get them, they're getting a lot of benefit of the doubt from their teams of 2-3 years ago.
Couple penalties could have called on that 2 point conversion? COULD HAVE CALLED? LOL! For God's sake, try "MUST HAVE". I'm a Turkish fan enjoying NFL for 20+ years now. These officials are worse than scandalous European football (i.e soccer for some) referees this season. Kudos to Mr Al Michaels pointing out the atrocity; in his words "So FRUSTRATING!".
Otherwise good job Rich, sincerely.
I'd never go for 2 ovet a tie, it means you literally scored as many points as your opponent, I'd take my chances
They gonna run the table
Burrow is a Stud QB, true leader and is getting Fucked by ownership for not building a complete team around him cause D is complete trash. They need to sign Chase and should of traded Higgins since they are not going to pay him and he missed at least 6 games a year. They def have been on the end of some real bad calls but blowing leads should not happen. also I think taylor should be gone after season
I think Joe Burrow should give up on the bengals
Rich.... soooo I'm a Chiefs fan and I hear everyone KNOCKING them. My God all they've done is play more games than ANYONE Team in the last Two Years and Won back to Back SBS. They've been and still are riddled with injuries this Year. They have one of the toughest schedules in the NFL. They are now becoming hated for their Greatness which I get. Ok soooo maybe they have injuries this Year and are a bit tired and worn out after the last two years... maybe Mahomes has had an off Year.... Maybe the Ravens and Bengals just had an Offensive game for the ages... Maybe Detroit is playing lights out. However the Chiefs just WIN. If you listen to Burrow... do you think he'd rather have the Wins or the Stats ? People amaze me... I love big game stats.. but what I love more is WINNING. The Chiefs are 8-0 and on a Winning streak of 14 games... it's very close to be a Record Breaking Win Streak. Ohhh and you know what we have that NONE of those Teams have ? A Great Defense.
Couldn’t agree more!
Rich loves KC
Brockmann hates KC because he knows that we will reach NE status very shortly.
All Mahomes does is win
He doesn’t care if the score is 10-9
He just wins
End of story
He’s got that Brady vibe
The Bengals are a "flawed" team. They've taken the Ravens to the very limit in two games ?
That is "flawed"
Well they lost right? That’s the definition of flawed.
When it ends that way for every good team they've played this season...and the Patriots, yes
The Ravens lost to the Browns and the Raiders, so yeah, they're a flawed team.
You act like the Ravens don't have their own flaws, they could barely move the ball by running last night and that's supposed to be their bread & butter
@@Willtellthetruth yes the ravens also have flaws but they aren't on the verge of not making the playoffs like the Bengals so he fact that they haven't one against a good team yet is a major flaw if they intend to make the playoffs and win
How would they be 5-5 🤦🏽♂️. If they lost they would be 6-4 instead they won 7-3
It's time to give up and shut it down
How is Lamar unstoppable but 7-3 and lost to browns and raiders
Best worst team in NFL history
Here are two open secrets: 1) The Ravens defense holds on every play. 2) Joe Burrow is universally despised by the corrupt NFL refs. And NO, I am not a Bengals fan. I'm an objective viewer of the League, period.
Womp Womp game is over cry baby Bengals fans get what they deserve ever since that Burrowhead comment.
Two open secrets: 1. There is no rivalry with the Cheifs. 2. Mahomes is still better than Burrow and Burrow isn't even the best QB in his division.
Says the guy named after a clown fish🤣
They are bums, a flash in a pan team.
Sorry bengos but you’re probably finishing 8-9
The Bengals wins are against the Panthers, the Giants, the Raiders and the Browns, a collection of teams that are all 2-7. Don't give me this they're going 5-2 the rest of the season when they have 4 games against potential playoff teams left.
5 losses by a combined 16 points. Even the 20 point loss, to the Eagles, came down to a bad half.. The Bengals have shown they can beat anyone and also they have shown, they can lose to anyone.
@doge-isbetterthandogs7979 no... this version of the Bengals hasn't shown they can beat anyone. By the evidence of the games played they've shown they're capable of beating the worst teams in the league and scoring moral victories against everyone else.
If. If. If.
Just too many ifs.
What’s a guy gotta do?
A lot ifs.
This is why the "stats without context" analysis we always hear is useless. Wins are the only stat that matters.
I’m sorry… but need the Bengals to lose the Bolts ⚡️
As chiefs fan I wouldn’t want play bengals cause they cry when they lose and say we cheat.
Lol because the refs cheat for the chiefs
Wouldn’t want to play the Bengals because Burrow is the only one who has figured out what it takes to beat Mahomes.
@ They always say that cause they lose. Plan and simple don’t put it on the refs to win you the game.
@ He beat us one time to get to the superbowl and lose. That’s what everyone putting it on that happened how long ago. Please!!!!
@ playoffs count not regular season. When we beat the bengals we win the superbowl not lose like bengals.
Yeah but records aren’t flipped and Lamar is the MVP and Derrick Henry is the offensive player of the year. Records matter 🤫
Bengals aren’t making the playoffs
I don’t see it this year
Pittsburgh will sweep em
Chargers will win
That’ll be it
I want them out of the tournament 🏟️
I’m done watching football. It’s very blatant that the nfl is rigging the games. They missed at least 30 penalties against the ratturds. 8 on the bengals last drive alone. Also it’s funny that in the first half, the ratturds had like 8 penalties and they only had 7 points but in the second half they had 0 penalties on offense. Like they gonna be able to “flip the switch”. The refs were called and told to stop throwing flags on the ratturds and they did.
I'd never go for 2 ovet a tie, it means you literally scored as many points as your opponent, I'd take my chances
