It was hard to watch, amazing he was able to hobble on it. A dominant performance by the Bengals, on the Bills home turf. Jackson Carman showed why he was a 1st rounder. He got a couple pancakes and dominated his man on the D-line. The coaches finally got him back to his natural position, where he excelled at Clemson. This decimated OL, played their ***** off, allowing only one sack and only one holding call. The offense came out smokin and had completions to 8 different recivers in the 1st quarter alone. Time to make Mahomes and Kansas 0-4 vs. the Bengals. No matter if it’s Mahomes or Henne it’ll still be a fight in this game. Henne is a very capable QB who can lead a team to victory. It’s on the Bengals to show up and play to their potential and be prepared for no matter who is playing. The two main players that Cincinnati has to keep in check is Kelce and Pacheco. Both of them can break your back in a heartbeat. Also, please let that Oline that went against Buffalo show up again in KC.

Bengals are -1.5 point favorites over Kansas. Come on Las Vegas. That has to be due to the uncertainty of Mahomes.

It was great to get Hilton back for Buffalo, although Jackson played really well in his absence. This Bengal defense is formidable and doesn't get the credit it deserves. Going back to shutting out Tampa and Tom Brady, through 3 quarters and only allowing one of the most explosive offenses in the endzone one time and holding the Bills to only 10 points is remarkable, but like the team, the defense never gets it's just do.

Expect Chad Henne to ultimately, take over the quarterbacking. Mahome's a real gamer, but a high ankle sprain takes about a month to recover from it's effects. In Mahome's case, it is his right foot, not good for a right handed QB. Besides limiting scrambling abilities, it has an impact on throwing mechanics, for medium to deep tosses, since it requires a solid plant and pushoff of that right foot, so he has to rely on sheer arm strength. He can get away with it on the short, swing passes, bubble screens etc., but deep throws can result in underthrown balls and the Bengal secondary will be totally aware of that and fully prepared to feast on underthrown tosses.

Any word on Mahomes or is that being kept quiet to everyone outside KC. Patrick Mahomes will play, but how well? In terms of what we can expect to see from Mahomes come Sunday, it’s quite likely that there will have to be some adjustments made. Indeed, what’s all but certain is that the Chiefs man in the middle will be working with reduced mobility. Perhaps the best take on what we’re going to see against the Bengals, comes from ESPN’s report: “Mahomes’ creativity and ability to make off-schedule throws are a large part of what makes him the player he is, but the Chiefs would likely make Mahomes a pocket passer, as they did in the second half against the Jaguars. He threw no passes from outside the pocket after returning to the game for the start of the second half. That’s only the second time this season Mahomes went for a half without making an outside the pocket throw. Mahomes threw more passes from outside the pocket (113) than any other quarterback during the regular season and was tied for second with seven touchdown passes. One thing we know for sure, Mahomes is far less likely to break contain, making the Bengals defensive front that more dangerous.

One thing I noticed in the Buffalo game was they kept Allen in the pocket and didn’t let him scramble and he seemed off due to this. QBs like Allen, Mahomes and Jackson use their legs to extend plays and make big plays. When you take away a big part of someone’s game, they are not the same player anymore.

Kelce is having a stiff about Arrowhead being dubbed Burrowhead
I love it.
Again, I can't emphasize enough how I want Cincinnati to take KC to the shed

I seen the video today of Mahomes stretching and running around at practice so it seems he’s good to go. I say good let him play. I don’t want to hear from anyone that the Bengals only won cause Mahomes was out.

In sports, history seems to repeat itself in a pretty consistent fashion. With that in mind, a San Francisco upset and a Cincinnati win, would set-up a spectacle of 49ers vs. Bengals....chapter III.
The Bengals would love nothing more than to avenge that hearbreaking loss, when they had the lead with mere seconds on the clock and Joe Montana hits Dwight Clark in the back of the endzone with 26 ticks on the clock, to steal the Super Bowl trophy from the arms of the Bengals.

Didn't SF beat Dallas the same way? Montana hitting Clark back of end zone with leaping catch?

IMO I don’t want to see the 49ers. I’d rather take my chances with the Eagles. Hear me out. Kittle and Samuel are two of the best playmakers in the NFL on offense. CMC and Mitchell is a ton to handle out of the backfield and they have an elite offensive line. On the other side that defense is damn good. Warner and Bosa are elite players and the others follow that lead. I just think the Bengals are a much better matchup with Philly.

That late hit may have been the right call but I’m still not making that call at that point in the game . Just my opinion. Bang bang play that dictates the outcome sucks.

Well Well Well. You win the north last year. Beat the chiefs twice. Choke in the Super Bowl (0-3 btw). Win the north again. Barely beat a ravens squad with a back-up. Beat the bills who are 0-4 in superbowls. Face the chiefs who you already beat and mahomes has a hurt ankle and you’re right back at home with 0 rings just like the browns. WHO btw the way you’re 1-5 against the last 3 years. But hey it’s still WHO DEY right? Lol.

These past two replies make me realize even more how sad it is I am a Browns fan. Our fanbase has resorted to running victory laps when division rivals lose in the playoffs. While we are bottom feeders once again. Only 3 winning seasons since 1999. But ya suck on that who dey! Take that AFC championship L! I’d love to just witness a Browns AFC championship game.

Glad I don’t pay attention to Browns fans or Browns football.
Tough loss tonight for sure and will take a few days to get over. Cincinnati has a hell of a future to look forward to. Now the biggest question is who can they hang on to with these rookie contracts that are about to expire. Burrow, Higgins and Wilson have to be top priority. Bengals will be back next year.

Officials NEVER make a call based on the point of the game. If they did it would mean open season on late hits. A stupid Bengal player dictated the outcome of the game. Did you see Cincy's #21 standing a couple of feet out of bounds right in front of the late hit? When it happened he put both of his arms out with the palms of his hands up, as if to say, "WTF are you thinking?!? He wasn't. The fact of the matter is. The Bengal offensive line sucked. There is no way in a Division Championship game can your QB be sacked 5 times and win. That and the bad O-line play caused Burrow to throw 2 INTs and made Cincy a one dimensional offense, being unable to run the ball.

I feel bad for Ossai. The guy knows he did wrong and feels bad about it. I know the immediate reaction for everyone is WTF? Some people just take it to far with their feelings. He will learn from it and come back even better next year. He played his butt off all game and yes made a terrible play at the end.
