Josh Johnson to start!

Enjoy the game. Hopefully we're 9-6 by day's end and all alone at the top.

Yes if KC handles the Steelers too it would be ideal.  That could also mean the next weeks KC game may not be as important to them.  Hopefully the Browns are playing for a higher draft pick by the last week.

Who Dey! Today is the day where the Bengals solidify they own the AFC North.

Baltimore prepping to run the ball 700 times today

This is the biggest late season game we have had in a long time. We need to take care of business, the have KC beat the Steelers. The Browns play the Steelers next week which would be an elimination game. Then, the Ravens play the Steelers in week 18, one more elimination game.

We win today and we can clinch the division with a win against KC next week or a win in week 18 against the Browns. Both will be very tough games, but for once we have a shot in December and January, it has been a long time and very few predicted we could possibly win the AFCN this year. In fact, most said we would be the last place team with around 5 to 7 wins.

Enjoy the game, Bengals can shock the world if the pull off winning the AFCN.

I expect all of their drives to be run-run-run-Tucker FG attempt, regardless of field position...

I am so glad this is a 1PM game.

JoeyB is doing his early warmup without his knee brace. First time all season

From what I have seen, Prince is expected to start at RT. I wonder, what is the plan if he stinks it up or gets injured? I know Spain did a good job last season kicking to tackle in a pinch, which could be done if they think Smith is ready to play LG.

will the 3 Pro Bowlers be today's team captains?

So we knew the Chiefs would be without Kelce against Pittsburgh, but now they don't have a place kicker either. KC beating Pitt is a key component of us making the postseason winning only 1 of the final 3 games. On the flip side, Pitt winning is one of the components required for the Bengals to be the #1 seed, but there are far too many things that need to happen for it to be realistic, so I would rather see the KC victory to keep Pitt behind us.

I don't think it will be long before this matchup is considered to have the top 2 kickers in professional football.

Very concerning.. Maybe the light goes on for Prince and we don't see purple rain.. 

This is interesting Stanley Morgan, Samaje Perine and Chris Evans returning kicks in pregame. Haven't heard Perine in the mix before
