Up 18 at half. Can’t complain about that.
You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American

Well yeah, we must keep up the tradition of giving points up before the half.

Our biggest help today has been Winston. Having seen him before he is possibly the worst touch passer in the NFL.

Huge not giving up TD there. Go in Half up 3 scores, not 2 scores.

Sure, but I’m just happy our offense looks good again.

They rotate too much. Tupou and MJ aren't proper replacements for even a tired Atkins.

“Look at the flag and assume the opposite?!” Yikes. What a brain tease.
And this terrible wind is supposed to get WORSE in the second half?!

Me too! They have improved a LOT in the missed tackles department.

Very true! I reckon I should have said the on the defensive side of the ball it has been more really bad play by Winston. Our Offense has looked lights out today so far

But at least he boxed a guy out on a fade route to the endzone! And committed an uncalled PI

No. He is his own caricature. Is my point.
Most would just shake their head or roll their eyes on a missed extra point.
What the hell is the clap and "Let's Go! Let's Go!" for by the way?
Especially for a missed extra point.
Geez you guys need to relax. Don't want him to scream at midfield.
Just thought it was funny that his reaction is automatically the same and on cue.

The AFC North has to be the most brutal division in the NFL for kickers with all open stadiums and all with (known) crazy wind situations like we are seeing today with the gusts and swirling wind.
... as if the timing and accuracy of the snap, hold, blocking, and kick of an oblong ball isn’t tough enough!

To any Winston Fans, I'm glad we aren't playing Fitzpatrick. Tampa was tough early in season with Fitzpatrick.
If Bengals don't score another point, Tampa would need 3 Touchdowns to go ahead. I think our D better than that. I think our offense better than that. 5-3 looking pretty good at Half.
