This kid has some wiggle, would like to see him catch a pass and run with it.

Twatt told Lisa Saulter before the KO, they needed to win to knock us out of the playoffs. HaHaHa
He did have a couple of pressures, but no sacks!

Good on Zac for recognizing some of the kids on D, but he shoulda been slapped for awarding CTB. 

Trey Hendrickson is SUCH a good dude.

Relatively close but even a short one can be missed. 

Ratings may prove otherwise, but I thought Newton had one his better games

They can, and often are, but that's why I think he wasn't mentioned. He hit the ones he should be hitting.

Trey is pure class

Yes but CTB did make a sick play on 4th and inches.

York's 1st kick off was a dud.

Was he trying to do something strange there, or did he just not hit it?

McPherson is signed for $5 mil next year. If we cut him before June, we lose money, but after June, we could save some, even after signing another PK.

I think PK is an open comp: McPherson, York, or someone else. 

Russell Wilson gets my vote, he played a horrible game, he’s the reason we won.

It might have been that he had to re-set when the ball 1st fell off the tee.  Regardless, the announcers said they waited 18 weeks to see a kick like that.

What exactly happened there? For some reason I didn't follow the kick and all I saw were flags and heard the broadcaster say, not sure what happened there.

He’s not Carl’s son.

He also shanked a kickoff, and gave them the ball at midfield. As lopsided as this poll result is, I’m surprised it wasn’t almost completely unanimous other than the people who always have to vote for an entire side of the ball, or a player from the opposing team. But I guess we were starved for a kicker to hit all his FG’s.

PFF, early on, has Burrow and Hilton as the highest rated players from the game.

Everything Im reading online suggests that he is indeed Carl's son

"Pickens is the son of former Bengals receiver Carl Pickens, whose franchise single-season record for touchdown receptions was matched in Saturday's game by Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase."

There was a whole thread on Reddit debating this because of all the misinformation. From what I’ve seen he’s definitely NOT the son of Carl.

This is supposedly his his father who has been in interviews with him going back to high school:

Well I don't know that to be the case but I wouldn't look at Reddit as the source for truth.

If it turns out to be incorrect and he isn't his son, then I will stand corrected and admit I was wrong.  As of now, I don't see a lot of evidence to the contrary
