Or he'd get 90 carries for 900 yards in 17 games.

Chubb is 27...28 in Dec. He's about to age out?

Nah. Taylor would never give him the ball. 

[TecmoBengals]

It's too early to gripe about the offense but it isn't too early to complain about the punter, right?

His leg strength isn't going to improve as the season goes on.

[Tony]

Good idea not playing starters in pre season Zac.. He never learns

[Housh]

We need more on these runs


At least try Brown here. This cant be all o line

Pratt wanting that first Game Ball of the season.

Bengals were top 5 in rushing attempts in 2021 so...

there is nobody on your side of the argument.

2 rushes, 6 yards.

did you expect more though?

[Joelist]

Offense needs to settle down and stop trying to be cute - just power run to the left until the line gets synced correctly.

[Whacked]

As usual - D working their tails off to keep us in it as the anemic offense takes their good old time trying to catch up.

The one bright spot - “SO FAR” - OLine holding up

Brown is inactive

That’s what they sod us on. This powerhouse (supposedly) offense should always at least make it to the 40 yard line. At least……

End of 1st Quarter. First String offenses start rusty, no points. Well, First Strings no longer play preseason, so game one starts flat like a preseason game.

[RegularGuy22]

As I thought Bengals will be punting plenty. And they look flat as I thought. Just hope Browns don't make it a mess before we catch fire

If Chubb were on a non-north team I would.

Our O is so soft. It's pathetic. Browns knew we were throwing on 3rd & 1. 


The D is the better unit. For the 3rd year running.
