3 oline injuries is a major concern. Major.

That's a good point, also the QB missed Hill on several routes that would have huge.

The Bengals just overcame the best defense in the NFL.This Ravens team came into this game with a very good game plan,and executed it well.
The Bengals survived.Moving forward,I think this game is going to make the Bengals even better.They were tested on both sides of the ball,and still found a way to win.That’s what championship teams do.

If the Bengals were going in with a healthy o-line, I'd be extremely confident about this game. If the Bills can't generate pressure, they are in big trouble. Burrow isn't going to miss all the throws that Thompson did yesterday.

A healthy oline, we are probably favorites and should be. This oline may once again restrict the playbook like last year except no one will give us the go routes this season. It will be tough.

Nah. It probably would have still been the standard 3 point favorite for the home team. So basically a draw. Think it’s only at 3.5 right now though.

I think it is incredibly stupid, but it is legal when a QB is in the pocket.

I will take the Jags every day of the week and twice on Sunday over KC or Buffalo, though.

I would guess that's because when the QB is in the pocket, he isn't running, so a horse collar is not as dangerous.

I am ecstatic we won!!!
It's also true that we can be critical of the offense at the same time. They are not mutually exclusive.
It was 24-17 in the 4th with a chance to put the game away and then the last 2 offensive possessions were:
- Punt - 6 play for 13 yards (15 yards of that on a roughing the kicker so in reality it was -2 yards), 2:40 time
- Punt - 3 plays for -1 yards, 1:20 time
After going up 24-17, we had 2 possessions to ice away the game with either points or at least time and proceeded to go 9 plays for -3 yards. This doesn't count the possession prior when they went 3 plays for 8 yards, 1:19 time.
How exactly is pointing this out "complaining"?

There are no teams the Bengals don't have a shot against. The Bills have the same question marks.

If they go into Buffalo and don't drop 30 on the Bills, I'll be more concerned. The secondary up there should be a relatively easy mark for Burrow and the fellas.
Nope.

We're 16th? Jeez I thought we were top 10 on defense.
Everything in this post is my fault.
