The game isn’t over yet! We can agree with Philhos.
This is how they should have played the niners.
Not too bad...at least they're leading. D could step up a bit, for my taste, but not horrible. But It's an AFC 1st place battle. Gotta seal it off against the Ratbirds.

The crappier the D plays the more we get to see Burrow light it up.
2nd half should be running & converting.
I know Apple is starting over Wayne’s, but you think that he’d be on the field over Flowers? Unless it’s precautionary?

Or we could just let Burrow keep playing like Otto Graham.
Bengals D line has been invisable.Daniels looks like he hasnt played in a year. Hill isnt drawing doubles like Reader does

Yeah, but after a couple of the cheap shots Baltimore put out there in the 1st quarter, you can tell they want revenge, and I would like to see us lay 60 on them and them not score again.

He had a horrible pick against the Niners that was wiped out by a penalty.
And against the Vikings he threw one directly to a defender that Boyd stripped away for a reception.
And it is okay to say these things when they guy is 18-21 for 299 and 3 tds in the first half.

Defense looks like crap against JOSH FREAKING JOHNSON. Shades of Mike White again. DL is getting no pressure at all, tackling is bush league bad and as usual the TE is uncovered.
Maybe Reader is important?

They did play them like this. Problem was special teams didn't get the memo and let them have super short fields.
For anyone stat-tracking, Higgins needs 36 yards to get to 1000 on the year. Boyd now at 775.

That's cause he hasn't....
I wonder if Martindale will run his yap about Joe again.. He's gotta be feeling like a chump about now..

Screw that fat ass "Stink Fartindale"...Im so glad he gave them bulletin board stuff....JB 300 yds and 3 tds in one half. LOL ....
now can we please cover the TE in second half??
I’d feel a lot better if the defense played better, but, the offense has been terrific. Keep the foot on the pedal and don’t change a thing offensively. Tackle better on defense and COVER ANDREWS!!
Watching the Bengals win, the Steelers lose and not have work tomorrow would make for a nice Sunday.
