Elise Jessie (who blocked me on Twitter just because I mentioned about her, "exposing Zac," story from 2020, didn't even disparage her) said that during the CBT postgame and I just shut it off immediately.
***A FG, WINS THE FRIGGIN' GAME FOR YOU,*** yet she was all, "I didn't like that they were settling for 3, I wanted to see them go for the win."
There are too many false/tired narrative and dog whistles for fans and people just don't know WTF they're talking about.

Burrow has a 70%+ completion percentage, 12 TDs to only 2 INT, and his highest season QB rating in his career (113+). Yet, here we are at 1-4.
Brown fails again for not building an organization capable of winning and supporting the super star QB.
wrong..it just has been the perfect storm of injuries to defensive starters and some very good rookie defensive linemen they drafted..Bengals were in the Superbowl..conference championships two out of the last three years ..and had burrow not been hurt last year..whos knows how far we would have gone..Relax

I didn't mind at all playing for a FG in OT because that's all you needed to win. I just minded playing for a 53 yard FG.

If it were Fat Randy, I agree completely.

Yep. Burrow is statistically the best qb in the NFL. He's not the problem.

Dude is gonna spend Burrow’s entire time here hating him because he wasn’t ready to move on from Andy. It’s so weird.

Exactly Truck.....and then people, being the cattle that they are, can't think for themselves and just parrot what they hear/see in print. It's comical actually.

Agreed Truck.....I would see Leonard's viewpoint more if it were a different kicker. We paid this guy for EXACTLY this reason/scenario, and people are losing their minds about giving him the shot to win it.

Stuff like this happening is why you need to beat teams like the Patriots and Commanders at home. Bad snaps and grueling last second losses happen, but when they make you 1-4 instead of 3-2 as a result because you just can't beat the teams you were supposed to you have less margin for error and less of a reason for people to shrug and give the "shit happens" excuse to it all.
But at the same time, it's the Burrow era Bengals so every frustrating loss early just turns into "well, just add an extra win to our usual 10+ game winning streak that'll pull us back into the picture."

If it comes to that - and I am almost certain it will - the franchise needs to be shuttered or sold.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.

You're exactly right there. Against NE, the whole damn team stunk. Against the Commanders, the defense didn't get one lousy stop. It's so frustrating to watch this offense finally have a decent line and ball out, only to be wasted by a historically bad defense.

Burrow did have a fumble, returned for a TD. That didn’t help them win, huge turn around.

Thats said, Zac did call a pass play and Burrow DID check out of it to a run.
same front office that was responsible for the team going to the superbowl..winning the AFC and then next year the conference championship?
