Got a bit nervy watching that second half especially with the Jamarr fumble but all in all a good win on the road. A few years ago you'd head to the patriots and pray not to get dicked but now we head anywhere and expect to win. Just chalk up another w in the column and wait for next week. Have a happy Christmas Bengal fans from Shropshire, England. They gotta play us - who dey !!!!!!

Welcome Semi-New Guy!
Bengals have great roster and one of the best QBs in the NFL but they are missing a game changer on the defensive line.

The Chase fumble is what made you nervous? I was pacing the room when the Pats had the ball on the 6, 1st and goal, with a minute left and only down by 4. That’s a loss 90% of the time.

Trenton Irwin keeps making plays and idk how we lose. There’s just no way to guard all 3 WRs AND. Keep an eye on the TE and Irwin.

That was a fumble on Jones. Refs tried to screw us. They also didn't start the clock on Mixon's run at 55 seconds.

Merry Christmas. Not sure how you became a Bengals fan but glad to have you.

Take any type of win at this stage of the season.

I prefer the games where we are ho-hum in the first half and blow them out in the second half.

Finding ways to win when everything goes wrong is what separates great teams from good teams. This team has done this for now two seasons. Every team will have meltdowns but not all can still get the win. This team will get again be a factor in January and that’s awesome to see.

Play calling was pretty bad late in the third Q. Up by 22 and you pass when it's 2nd and 2??? Take a big sack... Next play a pick 6.
Up by 22 in the 3rd Q and it is 2nd and 2.. RUN THE GD FOOTBALL. You have two chances to get 2 yards and you burn the clock... You will get it.. Instead drop back and get sacked on 2nd and 2 then throw a pick 6.. Ridiculous.
Happy we won but stupid football won't win in the playoffs

Never heard. How did you like the game you went to?

Is that the 1st time we have been shut out in the 2nd half?

That was pretty clearly an incomplete pass. If it would have been called a fumble, it probably would have been overturned.

Oh and didn’t that Max dude have two penalties? How many plays was he even in for? Put Prince in the jumbo pack if he’s available from now on.

I don’t know. Looked like the ball went straight up in the air out of his hand and then he propelled it forward.

One more in the bag, two to go. At least we have a long week to maybe get some guys healthy. Hopefully, Collins will be Ok and we get Hurst and maybe Hubbard back to take down the Bills.

Doesn’t matter how they look, a win is a win. A road win on a short week in bad weather with some horrible luck on plays (like the deflected TD/etc) is big any day.
I was never all that concerned. Maybe part of that was a loss in this game isn’t the end of the world anyway, but mostly because this team just always finds a way. Never know for sure how they’ll do it but they get it done just about every chance they get. Just two more regular season games left.

Wins are Wins in the NFL. I am worried about the defensive line in the playoffs though.
