Thank you Joe Burrow. Thank you. Dear front office, He thinks you guys are the best and wants to be here forever. Please, PLEASE don’t fuck this up. Sincerely, All Bengals Fans

So who are rooting for in today’s games? Seahawks at 49er’s Chargers at Jaguars i pretty much hate the 49er’s by the Brock Purdy story is fun. Would rather see a Seahawks win myself, but don’t care either way. The Chargers have been beat up this year and just lost WR Mike Williams to a fractured spine. This one would bring the winner to Cincinnati, should we win and the Dolphins pull off the miracle. Give me the Jags in this one.

Good… For those young players that thrive on external motivators, use that and go out there and take it out on the Ravens. It is ridiculous though.

No worries Stripes, my son and I will be present and screaming for you as well !! Good luck with the job interview. I'm sure you will kill it !!

The Bears their 2nd rounder in the Claypool trade with the Steelers. With Miami losing their 1st rounder, their pick turned into #32 overall. Pretty good deal for the Steelers seeing as how Claypool didn’t score a TD after that trade.

Once the Bengals got up on the Ravens Sunday, they weren't trying to do anything special by all accounts. They went pretty bland with their play calling and didn't want to give anything away. Seeing as how this isn't the same team from week 5, I don't disagree with that approach.

It's not to say that the Jets, Bears and Broncos won't be better next year. However, I would bet a large amount they won't get so much better they are being mentioned in the same breath as the Bills, Chiefs and Vikings. I could be wrong, but again, if i'm betting.....

No Tua for the Dolphins. They will be starting Skylar Thompson again. UGH !!

I don't care who their QB is. The Bengals are a better all around team and if they execute, they win easily. There was the slight overthrow of Boyd in the endzone, the slight underthrow to Chase in the endzone and another drop in the endzone if I recall. I don't think last Sunday's score indicated how solid a game that was for the Bengals and how much worse it could have been. Burrow and company don't usually miss those throws and catches. If there is a concern I may have headed into this game, it's the right side of the o-line holding up. However, like I said previously, I'm more comfortable with these backups, than the starters from last year.

I was happy when the playoff schedule came out that we are playing AFTER the Bills / Dolphins game. It will be nice to know, should we beat the Ravens, if we are headed to Buffalo or we get another home game against the Dolphins. Should the Dolphins pull off the upset, I would have to think getting a home game would be a HUGE motivator for the Bengals !! That would bring either the Chargers or Jaguars into Cincinnati. LET'S GO DOLPHINS !!!

I'm more confident in our backups this year than our starters last year. So while I would rather have Cappa and Collins, I'm not thinking the sky is falling either.

Dude, I turned on the game with 2 minutes to go in the first half, saw the score and turned the TV off in disgust. The Buckeyes totally blew that opportunity for sure. 65-7 In a National Championship game. Just crazy.

And after I basically trashed them to start the season, I am very happy to be wrong, wrong, and wrong. Had I been right, we would probably be talking about draft picks right now.

15-2 Calling it now. That is all.

Go to battle with what you have is probably the game plan. Can't say as I disagree at this point. Again, as in another one of these talks, if someone off the street is better than what's in house, all the players at that position should be shit canned. NOW.

Someone redefining the word "share" these days huh Cleveland? Previously "share" = all of us Now "share" = your dumbass

"Pumpkin, we really have to do something about this JTJackson guy on Bengalszone." "Can't we buy that worldwide web message talking board out just to shut him up or something"? "I know that SoaG is short for Son of a Gun, which is short for Son of a Bitch" "If I get my hands on him, we are going to have a real kerfuffle." "My 1990 Light Blue Metallic Lumina is also a classic, so fuck you JTJackson" !!!

There's much to unpack from this game, but my son and I had a blast yelling all game long. I typically hate going to Ravens, Steelers, and Browns games because of the opposing fans. This was no exception and even my son noticed as this was his first AFCN opponent game. He said, "Dad, why are the Ravens fans such assholes?" (Yes, I let him cuss, but only during football games when mom isn't around) Totally classless in cheering Bengals players getting injured, pointing our their team's headhunting and encouraging it, all while calling Bengals fans "shit". THIS is the reason I hate the Steelers, Ravens and Browns so much. Their fans are abysmal or as my 16 year old called them... "ASSHOLES" !!! Such a good kid. The Cappa injury really hurts. No getting around that. Scharping was absolutely horrendous in Houston. However, my only hope is that it had more to do with the Texans. That organization is the biggest mess ever. Maybe getting around a solid o-line with real pros and a head coach that builds that unit will pay off. I haven't seen how he graded out yesterday. It was a little hard following him specifically with all else going on. The Ravens players going after Bengals players was really evident from our perspective. Just ridiculous from my vantage point, but nothing I don't expect from them. When they know they can't beat a team straight up, they go cheap shot tactics and try to intentionally hurt players. Classless organization from top to bottom. Burrow... “The window is my whole career… The window is always open.” comment is beyond motivating. However, that wasn't the only nugget of gold from his presser. On the punting game he commented, "Drue punted the shit out of the ball today". While getting a laugh, you could tell how much he appreciates that effort. Talking about his own performance came, "Just missed some throws that I usually hit... well... not usually... always hit". LOVE THAT CONFIDENCE !!! The running game was ass yesterday. 55 yards rushing for the whole damn game. Burrow had 10 of those 55 yards. They can and need to do better come this Sunday, at least from the perspective of only picking up 2 yards per carry. If Burrow wants to throw it all over the place, fine, but when we go to the run game, it has to be more efficient. Happy with the defense and the team as a whole. This game was never really in the Ravens reach despite the score. I don't care who the Ravens start next week. Just go out there and execute the game plan and they win. For the Ravens fans I came across at the game.... FUCK YOU !!!

Nicely done. For what it's worth, I don't really care much about tonight's game. Not much about this match up that appeals to me. Hope none of the kids get hurt.

JK Dobbins is out for the Ravens today. Headed down shortly. Pray for my voice.

I’ve long been an advocate of dropping the “F” Bomb. The Army taught me the proper use and effectiveness of this tool. Who knew it was such a diverse word ?? Ahhhh whatever, go fuck yourself !!

I got tickets to the game tomorrow just so I can go down to the front row on the Ravens sideline and talk shit and call them names for 3 1/2 hours. Fuck the Ravens too !!

Chiefs won.

Try absolutely NO presence on ANY social media platform whatsoever. Talk about a wonderful life. I sit back sometimes when people watching and see how totally dependent they are to it. To unplug would be something akin to death. I hate social media with every ounce of my being. The Twitter’s, Facebook’s, Snapchat’s, Instagram’s, Tic Toc’s and all others like them. Yes highly recommend.

The Raiders are a complete mess. Still don’t get how McDaniels gets a pass when the only different from last years playoff team is him. Dude sucks.
