Like I said before the game, any sort of win is good and at 14-0 down on the 1 yard line before the half I didn't think we were winning that game. Logan Wilson had a huge stop and had some big plays in the game. I don't care about his intercepts I like the way he reads the games and tackles. What a player.
I was really happy in this game because the defense was bad all game and then made a clutch stop on 3rd and 4 to finally give Burrow a chance to take the lead. Was also good to see better play calling by Taylor in the second half. Need to call more 10-20 yard passing plays, Burrow is excellent in that area.
Bengals fans booing early in the 1st half is so weak. I hate booing of your own team at all times, but this teams been good this year and was way too early to turn like that. I don't think that's acceptable, and that's rubbish form.
Cheer up Jaguars fans, that must have been a really painful loss but Lawrence looks a good run/pass QB and your RB is a good one. Unfortunately just looks like they lack a bit of grit in defense and playmakers to really take a game away. Hope to see your team get a few wins this year and I think you will. I reckon Meyer regrets not taking the FG at the end of the 1st half, going three scores up at that point would have been brutal. But that's the way things go when the team is in a rut.
This Bengals team seems strong. at 21 all I was happy to see the game go either way, I've seen games like that get away from the Bengals and really get embarrassed but fighting back like they do, no matter the result, was great to see.
I really want to say 'this team is good', but I just can't do it yet.
Logan Wilson is a gun mate, I really like him. Tyler Boyd was strong and I think he and Chase work well together. The defense was pretty poor in the 1st half but did enough to get the job done in the second.
Yeah, how many times has it been the opposite for the defense, though? Even back to Zimmer's days as coordinator we'd play really well in defense until it matters. That was a classic good-team-doing-enough-to-get-a-win game. And how many times have you thought, 'if we just get a good drive to start the second half we're back in this', only for us to start incredibly poorly and concede more points. Today we actually did what I hoped for after the half. And a little more.
I wasn't onboard with drafting Chase, but he is really explosive.
I didn't want Chase, I would have sacked Taylor and Anararumo. I'm doing well.
I'm finding it really difficult not to get excited, even after the poor first half today. They did what they needed to in the second half and on the National stage.
Thanks for the quick history lesson fellas. Should’ve clicked to me earlier some tigers fans would go on to support Cincinnati
Supported them since 1989
Glancing from afar for a while, i can gather that’s been a tough time. Cause for some optimism with the current team ?
Some, need to do a better job of protecting Burrow, last season was like a kid on Christmas Day that breaks his most expensive present by the end of the day.
Yeah have seen just about everywhere that the O line is very average
Burrow is franchise transformational and if we look after him the right way he just may lead us to a Superbowl.
Teams got a big point to prove in tomorrow mornings game. Show they’re for real
I don't expect a win tomorrow, but will be really impressed with a consistent effort with good play calling. I see tomorrow as a test for Zac Taylor as much as anyone.
Yeah, would be good to be competitive. Want to see the defense create some pressure, want to see Burrow continue to be protected (though I suppose if both those things happen then we will win).
