Just finished the game on Game Pass....

Once again, great game by Lou's defense. Logan Wilson is the real deal at Linebacker, and the rest of them are playing good as well. Once again, our safety tandem played well, and I can't wait to get Waynes in at DB over Apple. Hopefully Awuzie is not going to be a long term groin . BJ Webb for Billy Price may be one of the best trades in Bengals history, and once again, the D line imposed their will on the run game. 2-1 looking at Jacksonville in the Jungle.

BJ Webb was that bum DB we had a couple years ago.

They showed Awuzie standing on the sideline he seemed to be fine. I'm hoping they were just being cautious with the short week coming up. The defense has been very impressive and the oline doing a solid job was good to see. Although it was against a beat up Steelers dline.

Right, slip of the mind and habit of typing Webb. BJ Hill....

With all the times the Steelers beat us down when the bengals had all the injuries or were just terrible I’m excited to see it the other way

For the flack he gets, I thought Apple did better than expected today.

He did.  He's not very good but he wasn't a game killer today either.

I just hope Waynes isn't a rusty heap if he plays.

Apple isn't good but it could be worse!

There must be some mistake here, Apple is #20 guys…

I mean he had a man beating him by 5-10 yards for a walk in touchdown if Ben has it even close to the receiver. 

Gave up another big play trying to peak into the backfield, got beat deep, and Vonn Bell had to save a touchdown. 

Three games in and he's basically the only person being beat for big plays and committing costly penalties.

Well that's why he's not a starter. He's not starter good, but he's not LeShaun Sims bad either.

I mean not many are that bad lol But I would say he was about as bad as expected not better. 

The Pitt receiving core is missing as many WRs as we are DBs.

You can do worse than Apple for your 4th/5th corner…we know that because we saw it last year.

I don't want to see any player seriously hurt, but it is kind of nice to see their players helped off the field after so many years of it being ours.

Well, bumbling that gimme pick6 kinda exemplifies Apple's overall performance.  Was in the right place, but did nothing noteworthy..
