They used Perine and it worked out last game.  Not sure why not today????

Well to be fair the pass block in the second half was amazing, and Joe was seeing the field the best he had all year. During that time is when they really got the run going. Maybe get the passing going and the runs will come from that. Not sure, but they fixed the run game last season, hopefully it happens again.

Just went into the score app to look at Baltimore’s defensive stats.  They’ve got some good players, Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey, Kyle Hamilton, etc., everyone had their tackles, etc.  

One odd thing - I couldn’t even find Trey Hendrickson listed at all.  Which means:

tackles - 0

tackles for loss - 0

fumbles caused or recovered - 0

interceptions - 0

OBJ I take back all the stuff I said about you.  You are a stand up guy, a real asset.  
 

The Ravens have to be regretting that contract.  

 

[COB]

I can’t stop.
 

I imagine the Ravens thought they were getting 1. an elite pass rusher, and 2. Veteran leadership, when they signed Trey Hendrickson.  
 

I think his injury is diminishing his pass rushing right now, he’ll be more effective as he heals.  But his leadership qualities were on full display in the second half today.

I have not watched the Ravens defense this year at all so I can’t say for sure, but back when Trey was in NO, he played LB for his first three years and, at least as far as pressuring the QB went, he was pretty pedestrian. Then in his last year in NO they moved him to DE and he got 14.5 sacks and a big new contract from Cincy in FA. He then proceeded to play DE for us snd consistently rack up double-digit sacks.

So, naturally, after they signed him the Ravens made him a LB again.

Again, haven’t watched, don’t know what he’s being asked to do, maybe it was a position change in name only, but the fact he’s listed at OLB and not RDE makes me wonder if Balti’s DC is being a bit too clever for his own good.

[COB]

I’m going to watch today’s game again so I’ll check out where Trey lined up.  I only noticed him lined up as a DE, but maybe they had him at LB and I just didn’t notice.

Chase Brown looked a lot better today.  I don’t know what was wrong with him a couple weeks ago, but his burst was back today, thankfully.

I don’t know what happened at halftime or what was said, but happy for the outcome.

Thank you Ja'Marr...

I know what the story says, but in my head cannon Ja’marr went to his locker at halftime, pulled out a bullhorn and a comically large old timey alarm clock, set it ringing and walked around shouting WAKE UP ASSHOLES BYE WEEK IS OVER!!!!! WAKE UP YOU’RE GETTING YOUR ASSES KICKED!!!!

[ArmyBengal]

Just keep whatever this motivation is about going and take it out on the Titans next week.

[Stripes]

The 2021 team obliterated Baltimore just before eating shit against the inferior Browns and Jets.

It ended well, obviously, but let’s demonstrate some growth this time.

Derrick Henry - 17 carries, 45 yards.

I would if I could but I can’t.

I celebrated the win yesterday by driving to Arby’s and trying something new.  Got the number 5 combo (Spicy Angus cheesesteak), $12.99, got Sprite as the drink.  You guys can pass on the spicy angus cheesesteak, it was ok but that’s all it was.  The “spicy” was some sort of nondescript heat, no idea what it was because there was no real taste to it.  I was so excited to try something new I blatantly choked while ordering and forgot to sub potato cakes in for the curly fries.

I always enjoy watching the tears flow. I know the thumbnail looks like clickbait bullshit, but the compilation is reasonably legitimate.

Burrow firmly put himself in the MVP conversation. When they're clicking like that, Cincinnati is almost unbeatable. 

 

Spectacular 2nd half, although I knew the Bengals would comeback

I'll delete once I post this, but like Hoosier said, we don't have secret squirrel powers anymore.
Well, I can still ban people...

Clearly he really hated playing in New York and just wanted out.

[ArmyBengal]

Saw a clip where Ja'Marr was asked what the issues were in the first half and his response was....

"I don't call the plays".

He turned it into somewhat of a joke, but I really think he did that knowing he didn't want to go there.
Seems to echo what we have all been commenting on through the season to this point.

Eat a dick Zac.

That dude makes me think of Ravens fans, clapping and yelling, "I need more D".
Burrow gave it to them long and hard in the second half.

We heard anything around All’s knee yet?

They are still searching for the pieces on the M&T Bank Stadium field.

I dearly love this player, but the injury proneness is just......

I have long seen him as our eventual starting TE but you cant start from the training room :-(

[TJJackson]

I havent seen a game for over a year now, as i dont have cable or any paid services, and i am not much for bars

So.....sunday ticket.....if i buy that, does it guarantee viewing access to all Bengals games?

Well, the fact that they signed Cam Grandy from the Vikings practice squad leads to believe, it's not a day to day thing.

Plus, they Bengals need to maintain their NFL lead in "Most players named Cam"

[COB]

All I heard on the knee without a brace after the game and he seemed optimistic.  I think his on-field reaction was pretty bad because this is the same knee he’s had all the trouble and surgery with.  
 

TJ, Sunday ticket is not your answer.  If you get an antennae you’ll be able to see the cbs and fox games on Sunday afternoon and immediately drive to your nearest Arby’s after every victory.  You’ll also be able to see the Sunday night games on nbc.  In other words living in Cincy you’ll get most of the games that way for the cost of an antennae, no monthly subscription.  
 

Sunday ticket will specifically exclude all the bengal games that are broadcast locally.
