I've got two questions, one football related and the other not.
I'm somewhat ignorant to your defense. The standard media coverage is all Burrow, Chase, and Mixon. How do you feel about your defense? Who is your best player, your worst?
Non football related: Any go-to recommendations for the downtown area? Food, drinks, etc? I don't have a lot of time to sight see and want to make sure it counts.
I'd be happy to return the favor and answer any questions about my team, board, or the wacky posters you're seeing over there. Good luck to you guys, I hope both our squads give us a competitive, entertaining, and injury free game.
Welcome to Cincinnati. We love it here.
You're right, Burrow, Higgins, Chase, Boyd, Mixon, Uzama, et. al. get all the press on offense. They are indeed tops in the league. Double team one or two, the others burn you.
Defense....getting better each week.
Awuzie is one of the best CBs in the league. CB Mike Hilton came to us from the Steelers and has been a much better baller here than he was there. Trey Hendrickson has 14 sacks, breaking the official Bengals season record. Von Bell is one of our Safeties and has 3 forced fumbles and an interception. Those are just a few of the Defensive Stars.
