Yep, Chase made him pay for mocking his dance step.

I didn't think we'd ever stop them though, let alone only give up 3 in the 2nd half. It might *seem* like a lie, but when we pulled within four, I thought uh oh KC.... you're about to get shocked. This team NEVER quits.

This team never folds. They believe in themselves.

As mods I know you don't have much choice, but the gameday thread is the worst of us.  But that's to be expected i guess of any fanbase.  Fan=fanatic afterall.

If it was up to me, I wouldn't even have a game day thread.

I think they're pointless. So many posts are made, and the majority of them amount to "woo-hoo!" or "that one guy SUCKS". People don't leave their arguments and resentment at the door, either.

That said, I get that there's a big demand for GameDay threads.

How hot is Joe Burrow?

He is the FIRST QB EVER with 400+ Pass Yards, 4+ Pass TD and 0 INT in back-to-back games.

How good would he be if he wasn’t a one year wonder with tiny hands??

Kidding - that’s actually surprising. He’s been great but I would’ve thought Manning or Brees or Rodgers would have done that before.
He is playing at an elite level right now.

Good grief. The KC defense was playing at an elite level, and Burrow just shat on them. The yardage, YPA and pass rating are pretty much double what they'd been allowing. Most impressive is that KC hadn't allowed a single 40+ completion, and we did it twice.

Not sure on their names but I'd like to thank whoever 35 was.  He did Chase's signature griddy dance after knocking a ball away from him.  After that Chase had no mercy 


Oh crap...just saw Sunset already said the same thing

Fenton was the guy who kept clapping after he was flagged for PI, holding, or illegal contact. It seemed to me they were getting away with it a lot yesterday, but I guess they're the ones whining about the officiating. That crew was rather suspect a few times yesterday.

It feels like it would be distracting as hell to post in that thread. Even texting back and forth with a coupla friends outta town can be too much for me. I put my phone in my bedroom toward the end of the game yesterday.

All while playing behind a not so good OL.Carman has to go in for Spain at LG.We were playing without our starting RT.

Even though Burrow had 466 yds.as opposed to 525 against the Ravens,this win was more impressive because of the defense he was facing.

At this point, that wouldn't bother me one friggin' bit.

Down 0-14 - "OK we're not ready for prime-time"
Down 17-28 - "well at least the offense will be entertaining, but we're about to give up 50"
Down 24-28 - "so you're saying we have a chance?"
Tied at 31 - "OK where's the blood pressure monitor"

This is why I avoid the GameDay thread for the most part.

I've seen enough of this crew that when they go down by 14 or 21, I just say "you're digging a deeper hole boys", but I never think they're out of it till the last few minutes. This offense can strike lightning quick.

Chase knows hom, they are from the same town. And they are both friends with the guy that came up with the griddy, who Chase had invited to the game. It wasn't as in your face as it seemed.

Agreed. It was a better defense, and the stakes felt even higher.

That said, I did like that they were beating bracket coverage against the Ravens, because that had been giving them troubles prior to that.

That was Charvius Ward. I think Fenton was the one who kept clapping after each holding penalty though.

He's been on absolute fire.  And the Ravens didn't appear to be such a pushover for the Rams and steelers, even though they did end up losing to both in the end.

I am so thrilled the team got a pseudo bye week and Burrow is seeing the field so amazingly well.  He's the real MVP, given what he has done and the division he plays in.
