I rooted for enough worthless December win in the Nineties to finally learn that the only thing they do is give them an excuse not to change anything. 0-6 in the north might actually light a fire under someone. 1-5 will be business as usual.

Draft pick guide for this week: First, obviously we want the Bengals to take a dive and finish 8-9. Second, we want New Orleans, Denver and Seattle to win. They would all be 9-8, bumping us from 16 to 13. Third, we want Chicago and Minnesota to win and finish 8-9. They would still be ahead of us in the first but we would rotate up to 11 in the second.

Hubbard said postgame he was getting surgery in the offseason. Didn’t say for what, but something to keep an eye on.

Game time announced, 1 pm Sunday https://www.bengals.com/news/game-time-browns-bengals-week-18-2023-season-schedule Game will be televised on ESPN en Espanol 37 as a Picture in Picture insert during coverage of the Mexican tequila worm bottle climbing championship.

Defensively I would go back to first principles: it all starts up front. A good line covers a multitude of sins behind it. That’s how Zim built his best defenses here. Right now the only starting caliber DT they have is Hill. They need to rebuild the DT room and that will take a minimum of a quality FA signing and a high draft pick. Reader is a wild card here. I love the guy but he’s getting older and coming off a serious injury, so I’m leery of counting on him. But in any event, they need better tackles.

Yeah cbs had it wrong, it was Denver not Pitt.

And that’s that. With the loss to KC, the Bengals were eliminated from playoff contention. Meanwhile, the Browns have nothing to play for; they can’t unseat Baltimore and they already have the highest WC spot locked up since they hold the conference tiebreaker over Buffalo. So this is basically 2024 preseason game number 1. Bring on the draft!

Bullshit

Pratt juked right out of his jock

Yeah this is just the last gasps of a drowning team. Looks like Pitt and Denver will win, so literally every team we wanted to lose won, and the one team we wanted to win is headed for an L.

Pitt and Denver both winning so no help there so far.

Lucky

There’s Taylor, stripes!

Browning doing it all today

Nice pickup after the flap

Oh hai Trey

Now if we only had a defense….

Nice play

And Tee is hurt again…

You can’t stop the Sample, you can only hope to contain him.

Good job defense, lose that game!

Losing Reader doesn’t help but yeah they are getting manhandled

Lololol Lou sucks

Crazy legs Browning today

What’s with this run the ball shit Zac? You cut that out right now!
