RE: Who do we want in the WC round? - Spider - 01-09-2022
Just my opinion.. But i think we match up really well with Buffalo and The Raiders..
Run Heavy Teams will kill us...

Patriots offense doesn't scare anyone. But there defense does seem legit... as long as Burrow protects the ball I do like our chances the more I watch this Dolphins game

Honestly that's why I wasn't too hip on sitting starters this week til the COVID outbreak. We weren't super awesome off the bye.

Belichik will come up with a good offensive game plan to try and exploit our LB’s for sure

Perhaps.... but it's usually the tight end you throw on the LB. NE doesn't scare me but on the flip side I can see a Mike White dump off game wrecking us

Listen, Mac Jones and those receivers don’t scare me at all.
What scares me is their head coach, their defensive execution, and their stout o-line

*Chargers aren’t all that but they whipped us so so so badly
Maybe we just don’t match up w then well.
Turnovers are what whipped them so badly. 24-22 defecit and driving before Mixon's fumble 6.

Forget the regular season, Pitt can be a scary playoff team. Do t want the Chargers or Buff either. Really wanted Indy. Still can’t believe Pitts in just as long as Chargers/Raiders don’t tie. Unreal.
BS. Ben is a shell of a shell of his former self and it doesn't matter how hard they want to play, they would get their shit pushed in by the Bengals for the 3rd time this year.

Why bother even making the playoffs if people are so afraid of all the teams?
You have to play them evenutally anyway.
RE: Who do we want in the WC round? - QueenCity - 01-09-2022
Tua is obviously not Burrow... but the Pats D should of already picked him off 3 times. THAT is what worries me about the Patriots

I think we’ve played really well against the run this season. I believe we’re ranked 8th in run D and 28th against the pass.
RE: Who do we want in the WC round? - Sled21 - 01-09-2022
Is NE playing their starters, because wow, they are not good.

The patriots always lose to the dolphins. Even when Brady was there, the dolphins in Miami would usually beat the pats
RE: Who do we want in the WC round? - Bengalstripes9 - 01-09-2022
The Pats have some major things going for them.
(1) They use their tight ends a lot, and we suck at covering tight ends.
(2) Belicheck is great at coming up with game plans to shut teams down and exploit their weaknesses.
(3) Our Oline is our weakness and Belicheck will likely generate tons of pressure and shut our run game down.
(4) They are great at offensive game planning and keeping teams off balance with a balanced run/pass offense. At times we've gotten run over this year, and looked very vanilla on 3rd down defensively.
This is a tough matchup with the potential to be thoroughly outcoached. This would be a big win. The Pats aren't one and done very often. We are (or have been in the past). This would be a huge win for our program. A loss would be a huge let down, but not necessarily reason to panic.
I'd like to see us beat the best if we are to advance. Excited for next week, but trying not to get my hopes up like the last playoff game. This could very easily be a loss.

Perfect scenario
Pats at Bengals, Chargers at Bills, Steelers at Chiefs. Bengals W, Chargers W, Steelers W
Chargers at Bengals. Steelers at Titans. Bengals W, Steelers W
Steelers at Bengals. AFC Championship. Bengals W
Super Bowl Burrow VS Brady for GOAT

If the stealers get that close the league is giving it to them

Man...i think my head is going to explode if i see one more person talk about Ben gutting anyone. He hasn't broken 200 yds passing in 4 games and his highest rating was 80.1
He hasn't even been able to reach 6 YPA in those 4 games.

Mine would be:
Pats at Bengals, Chargers at Bills, Steelers at Chiefs. Bengals W, Chargers W, Chiefs W
Chargers at Chiefs, Bengals at Titans. Chargers W. Bengals W.
Bengals beat either the Chargers, Chiefs or Bills in AFC Championship.
I'd rather see us beat the best teams every round if we are to advance. We already beat the Chiefs so I'd lean towards playing the Chargers.
I'd be happy with the Rams, Tampa, or Green Bay in the Super Bowl. The Rams scare me the most defensively with their line. Tampa's dline is scary as well--as is their offense. It'd be nice to beat Rodgers or Brady in a passing of the torch game.

Pats are down 14. If the Jets pull it out and NE loses, the Bengals stay at #3.
