Stripes Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Joe Burrow can clinch a division tomorrow. Joe Burrow can break out cigars tomorrow. I like our chances. 1 Quote

glasgowbengal Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Parallels with last year are uncanny. ”Best” team and in the conference, and media darlings, coming to us on the penultimate weekend, where a win gives us the AFCN. Quote

It's crazy, right? I was laying in bed last night and that thought occurred to me too. 1 Quote

I finally started seeing a therapist in October, so I'm hoping it will help. I have nearly 50 years of trauma to deal with and a horrible family that keeps fanning the flames. 1 Quote
membengal Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 This is for us all (rekindle the recent memories) 1 Quote
membengal Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Really, I am still savoring finally having, after all these decades, a Bengals team that can play in big games and I just look forward to seeing how it plays out. Win or lose. God bless Burrow (and what the coaches and front office has built). These are, literally, the good ol' days. Right now. 1 1 Quote
ArmyBengal Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Couldn’t agree more Mem. It’s sort of like the first Matrix where Neo gets up after being shot a buttload of times by agent Smith and then stops all the bullets mid air. Morpheus responds…. ”HE’S THE ONE” !!! Yeah, it’s just like that but Burrow !! 1 Quote
Stripes Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Jay Morrison made everyone on Twitter puke by insinuating the Browning elevation was Burrow-related. But no. They did it this time last season too. Gets their guy a game check. 1 Quote
cincyhokie Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Looks like D’ante Smith will be active tonight at OT backing up Adenaji. Quote
Stripes Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 The Bills jumped to 2.5 point favorites today. Not sure why. Might just be the money coming in on them already. Quote
cincyhokie Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 One of the interesting theories on this is, that because the Bengals have been 12-3 ATS, the “big money” is betting the Bengals can’t keep up the streak. Add in the emotion of big bettors getting “burned” by the Bengals and it becomes emotional. Basically, Burrow is breaking the mold when it comes to betting against the Bengals with the spread. They’re pissed. Why you would give the Bengals 2.5 points AT HOME is beyond me. They are very good at PBS. 1 Quote
COB Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Just want them to be competitive to the end, have a chance to win it. That game on Halloween against the Browns was an unwelcome, Marvin-like, prime time fail. Put that stuff in the rear view mirror. 1 Quote
Stripes Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 The tailgate energy is electric two hours out. 1 Quote
Stripes Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Burrow’s primetime look just impregnated me. Quote
membengal Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Surprised that they are going with D'ante Smith as the back-up/swing tackle and not elevating Prince. Makes me nervous if anything happens to adeniji or jonah... Quote
Stripes Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Seems the entire Prince thing really was gamesmanship. Odd. I do feel more comfortable with Adeniji starting though. We’ll see about swing tackle situations. 1 Quote
HoosierCat Posted January 3, 2023 Author Report Posted January 3, 2023 Note for next week via nfl.com: If the Bills beat the Bengals tonight, the Week 18 Ravens-Bengals game will be played at 4:25 p.m. ET on CBS with the winner clinching the AFC North. If Cincinnati defeats Buffalo, the Ravens-Bengals game will be played at 1 p.m. ET on CBS. Quote
Stripes Posted January 3, 2023 Report Posted January 3, 2023 Everything about this stadium screams “postseason dress rehearsal” right now. Boyd is out there fielding punts. 1 Quote
