Gotta give Mixon credit for being the designated pay cut and still looking great

He’s back in

Appreciate the surrendering 3rd down playcall Rams

Stay on their throats, defense

Tee ugh

GREAT Logan Wilson

Not great Nick Scott

Good. Do it again.

Thank you Trey

Blatant block in the back

Burrow 31 passes in the first half

I’ll take 3 there.

I will add $30 to my streaming subscription if they give me a “shut the fuck up commentators” button

Dax is breaking out. Looks spectacular.

Eyeballs tweaking violently

Pleasantly surprised

They’re going to take that away.

Tee is having a rough game.

I’m already done with Brad Robbins. There has to be someone out there that can punt a ball at least competently. And I don’t mean Chrisman.

Everyone is reporting Burrow is active now. Three QBs tonight.

Yes, there's no question it's a rock and a hard place situation. The real failure is starting 0-2. Even 1-1 makes this decision a lot easier.

For what it's worth, the Vegas line has crawled up from CIN -2.0 to -2.5 and now to -3.0 today. They seem to think Burrow is playing.

I think it's still up in the air, but I hope he plays. I think the Bengals are decided underdogs in any Jake Browning game, and 0-3 might be too big a hole to climb out of. I'm not willing to throw a Super Bowl window season in the trash. I'm just not. I don't think Joe Burrow is either, and he'll play if he is remotely capable. I just hope that if he plays, he is able to find some rhythm. Obviously I hope he also stays upright and healthy. It's a sport of risks.

Well that’s weird. “Bring back AJ McCarron” is one of those unhinged fan demands people make without actually thinking anything through. But he’s back. Hahaha. I mean sure, cool. Hopefully he’s still competent.

Remarkable that it's Friday and I have absolutely no idea if the starting QB is going to play. This isn't a complaint. It feels like the whole season hangs in the balance though, so anxiety mounts.
