Well they didn't lose the first one to Pickett unless you want to talk about the 5 "Picketts"" they got off Burrow.

They have enough talent to get hot and beat any team in the league (like the playoffs last season), and they are capable of losing to any team in the league due to their unbelievable inconsistency. Very likely they will end up 1 game below or 1 game above .500.
This. And a lot of it is on the coaches. Gameplanning. Scheming. Playcalling. Scouting.
We have a coaching deficit in every game we play.

No pass rush to be seen. Giving up 20 points to a shitty offense in the first half. Depressing. But it isn't over. Hopefully the Bengals wake the hell up during half time.
The offense has been fine and that’s without Chase. The defense is getting schooled by a bottom five offense.

Awuzie is the only good outside corner this team has, and he just happens to be a top 10 corner
If they can’t get pressure the DBs will be exposed and beaten like rented mules

Well, it was fun watching the Browns lose today, anyway.

The worst and most inexperienced quarterback in the league can pick a team apart if the defense can't get to the quarterback or come close.

The AFC Conference Champs are 0-3 in the division and currently losing to a rookie QB who is at the bottom of the division. This, after coming off of a bye. Now, we can and should win, but this disgusting.

yep, that's the only decent positive from the NFL today - I already know the bengals are going to lose today, no matter what happens they will find a way

if you take away a top 10 corner away from a team, that team is going to suffer. Especially when Eli Apple and CTB are the other guys

The ref ball in this game is ridiculous. The refs basically gave them a TD on a drive that stalled multiple times. And they let them hit Joe Burrow with no call. Investigate the refs!

Down 3 at the half and our offense is playing really good. It could be worse. They got lucky on a few calls and the refs suck overall, or we would be winning. Our DL has to get more pressure on Pickett. We have to tighten it up and play our game and we can win this.

the refs work for the owners, and the Rooneys are the most powerful family in the league
so you want them to investigate themselves?

Our defense hasn't gotten pressure on a QB all year. Our DBs have confused themselves in coverage more than Pickett.

Someone has to go break the kneecaps of the family members of the refs if they don't comply

That simply is not true in all cases. There are teams that have other nickelbacks and corners that can step in. The problem with this team is they cannot get to the quarterback and that will make any cornerback look bad.

Typical Bengals. They KNEW coming out of the bye how utterly crucial this game is and so of course they turn in a pathetic defensive performance, letting a bad offense strafe them.
