To get sharp again. Burrow and Higgins were both off. Higgins had balls hitting him in the hands and not catchimg them. That's not normal. Burrow did not look sharp either. Hopefully now they've played another game that'll be out of their system. If they play like this next week, look out.

They need to do something. They will be going against a better Ravens team personnel wise next week.

Offensively yes. Defense will be pretty much the same except for Peters and maybe Campbell.

Aside from a good second half against TB and a good first half against NE, this team has been playing like ass. They seem to forget that a game is 4 quarters
You can argue they were playing well against buffalo and they were, however its way too small a sample size to predict the outcome

Making me laugh with all the negativity on here while we are in the Playoffs and on an 8 game winning streak lol
We got a home game and this team can win it all, true, they need to put a game together in all 3 phases. Hope this happens
from here on out. Good ugly game to look at to improve on everything. Nothing for me to complain about right now, we will
see how bad we beat the Ravens and see if all the negative nancy's still complain, I bet they do.
This is what I didn't want to see from our fan base, sounding like a bunch of entitled Chief's fans around here right now.
Good for you guys, I am ashamed of the board right now, not the team.

Nothing entitled about my post. I said they needed this game to get sharp again. It's obvious from their play that they did. I expect them to.come out sharp next week

Yeah I know, it was the other posters I was calling out. Completely sad how negative people are on here after a big win.

How can you be happy with todays offensive performance?
Doesn’t mean they are not winning next week but OP is right that hopefully today got that ugliness out of their system.
The HC and the QB were not good today so that’s concerning.
I hope Burrow bounces back like he usually does and that Zac got that “pass on 4th and 1” out of his system.

That’s funny
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.

What’s funny?
Edit: did you think I meant the Ravens are better than the Bengals personnel wise? I was saying the Ravens will have better personnel next week than they did this week.

Gotcha. Yep I took that wrong. They will be stronger but Burrow and the receivers won’t look sluggish. We can’t be off like today. But a short week and the hangover of not getting the win ( they sure started strong) and the higher seed plus the Daman Hamlin situation had to have impacted them.

Blew off some cobwebs after the strangest week of stress and unusuality with an ugly win. They’ve be fine and sharper moving forward.

Rep.
We were a missed face mask call away from winning by 2 TD’s and people are acting like we barely scraped out a win.

The Bengals are 18-5 in their last 23 games ( I threw out the Browns final game last year). 4 of those games they lost late. Impressive yet some posters here Sled? Nate? Sad don’t you think?

This has been the case all season. This team has yet to play 4 quarters of good football this season. Very frustrating because this team can be explosive if the offense and defense plays at the same level. Usually one has to bail the other out

Baltimore will be tons sharper & Cappa got hurt. The last three wins we have been seriously Jekyl & Hyde.
