This. Burrow isn't going to pull an Andrew Luck even if he bangs up his knee 3 more times.

Whitlock was the one all over the media saying Burrow should refuse to sign with Cincinnati. That being said, I wish Burrow would shut the hell up. Unless he plans to follow LeBron's stance of supporting Communist China and mocking Rittenhouse's crying on the stand or all sorts of hot-button issues.
If entertainers want to wade into hot-button issues, they have the freedom to do so. And I and millions have the right to oppose them if we don't like their stance. If Burrow wants to wade into abortion, then he better be prepared to lose half his supporters, whichever way he goes, because that is an issue people take very serious stands on.
Jordon was the master of staying within his expertise of sports and not using his platform to say vote Democratic or vote Republican or be pro-abortion or be pro-life or support the Hong Kong protestors and Eris Kanter or support totalitarian regimes.
I also have strong opinions. And if I don't like Burrow's view, then I'll support the Bengals, but not be an avid supporter of Burrow. He may not care about me, or my enjoyment of sports, but there are millions like me that watch sports and movies for enjoyment and don't like to put money in the pocket of those with opposing view.

That’s a good point.I had forgotten about that.But yes,that scheme did work out pretty good for us.Mixon is being over used.

Crazy quote?
"I'm gonna come find you" -Tyreek Hill (who claims he was 'disrespected' by a Bengals assistant during the game)
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Shooter's 57 yarder would've been good from 64.

Bengals 1 of only 3 teams to not surrender a 2nd half TD so far.
Lou really is a master of in game adjustments.

After week four, the Bengals are playing like an 11 win team. Last year, I ran an analytics thread where I predicted teams final records using their point differentials. With week four data, I predicted 75% of the leagues final record to within two games.
So, this puts the Bengals floor at nine wins and their ceiling at 13 wins, using that logic.

And they could be standing alone in that stat by the end of this weekend.
Definitely have to give props to Lou for it. He did the same last year, and it made a huge difference and improvement over previous years.

I’m old enough to remember when in game adjustments were just “journalistic jargon.”

Disappointed to see this from Whitlock. Although apparently he's no stranger to this. I've seen him as a contributor for Fox News numerous times and he's come out and mocked certain BLM riots, so I figured he wasn't a race baiter. Guess I was wrong.
At what point do people just get tired of this garbage? Are we already there? I live in the south currently but lived in L.A. and I can honestly say I went from one extreme to the other. I have no idea.
