The contact doesn’t have to be the cause of the player going down. It just has to occur.

That was from Pratt to the squeelers who took Devish in the draft.

I don't want to be that guy but I have to go with defense. Trey Hendrickson was a force, DJ Reader was stout as always, Germaine Pratt was everywhere, and other than a very bad PI Eli Apple was shutdown.

Khalid Kareem gets my vote this week, 2 tackles, 1 for loss, and a qb hit, and the huge strip! He's a rotational piece that really stepped up when we needed him to.

Went with Sir Kicks a Lot.

The defense was the true MVP here. If they wouldn't have held Denver to 10, Evan's big game wouldn't have mattered. That said, it was more of a team effort than one guy dominating, so I give it to Evan.

Pratt for me. All over the field and an amazing pbu

Kareem had a couple big plays so I vote to give him at least one game ball.. A first is a first is a first..

Traded up for him no less. Dude is grading out in the 30’s.

He wreaked havoc all day long and forced multiple holding calls.

Yes he did and the refs could've called holding just about every play too.

He showed up to play.

Side note: Kareem will get crap for that run/fumble/whatever but he looked damn good in this game!

Apple is playing like a 1st round pick, which is nice since Waynes is back and Awuzie should be back for the next game.

Apple definitely has stepped up since the first few weeks.

Last few seasons a lot of people were calling Pratt a bust.. I never bought into that nonsense.. 

Kareem should have at least made the list.

Yep and Apple as well earlier in the season.

Apples and injured oranges comparison.

Lock didn’t touch Kareem

We were gifted and I’m happy about it

He did touch him. After Kareem got the ball Lock hit his arm going for the ball.

Believe they are all worthy and believe Hendrickson should be listed too.

The defense was the stars holding Bronco's to 10 points and Burrow, Boyd, and McPhearson all showed up on offense to get the assist.

P.S. I love having a kicker with a strong leg, believe this would've been a loss with Fat Randy still kicking in stripes. .

Waynes is trash in coverage. If you want to blame it on him not being fully healthy - - I guess that’s possible, but every game I’ve seen him actually play for the Bengals he gets beat. Can’t wait to see the headline this offseason that we’ve cut him.

Apple otoh I hope they bring back.
