Yeah, that is a far cry from the 12th man in Seattle. Could see just as many Bengals fans in there for all we know.

If you think that is going to be a Bengals crowd in LA, then I don't have a clue what you are talking about. 

But you side step my whole point.  If Higgins plays, I like Bengals chances.   If Higgins sits saving himself for free agency, I don't like Bengals chances as much.  The Chargers have gave up the fewest points in NFL, so Bengals could use both Chase and Higgins.

Doesn't have to be a Bengals crowd, but it sure isn't going to be like playing in Kansas City, Pittsburgh or Seattle where the 12th man can really
help out the home team. LA fans are notoriously shitty and have hardly any alliance. Back when the Chargers were in Diego it was different.

Agree on if Higgins plays he helps big time. Just can never count on it.

Even in the Super Bowl with the Rams it wasn't a crazy advantage like it would be for lots of other teams...

A couple of weeks back, the same day we were playing the Raiders, the Browns were hosting the Chargers.  During a break in our game I turned the channel to see how things were going up at the Factory of Sadness.  They showed a shot of the first level, and it was full of Chargers fans.  So many of them, in fact, that I commented on it in the GD thread.  I just found it interesting that there were tons of Chargers fans in attendance in (I can't) Believeland, yet their home stadiums is always filed with the other teams fans.

I would expect A LOT of orange jerseys Sunday and for the crowd to be an absolute non-factor.

yea idk how anyone can think a chargers home game is some sort of home field advantage for the bolts. Maybe the officiating will favor the home team, but chargers fans are non factors

Guess they travel well, just not to LA lol

I bet the real Chargers fans are still pissed as heck with the team being moved from Diego, heck, I am and I am a Bengals fan.

I don't like LA and New York having 2 teams each in the NFL, bogus.

Maybe if he wasn't out exploring all the time they wouldn't have left.



Nah, I kid.  It would have been worth it to stay in SD just for the song  It's a banger!





Be warned:  the "power" tends to short-circuit in really cold weather

You want to look at the teams we've beaten and lost to, we beat....
Panthers (Dalton)
Giants (D Jones)
Browns (Watson/Thompson-Robinson)
Raiders (Minshew/Ridder) 

We're 1-4 against teams with 16th or better scoring defenses while only averaging 20.4 points per game on offense. (The Giants who are 15th is our W.)
We're 0-5 against teams with 16th or better scoring offense.

Tee Higgins was at practice Wednesday. They really need Chase AND Higgins to take on the #! Defense in NFL this season. If Bengals lose this one, it really isn't gong to mean a heck of a lot what Bengals do after the bye week. Bengals including Higgins need to suit up and play, and they have 2 weeks to rest up for their next game.

The Chargers are a good team, especially on DEFENSE. This is no easy game this Sunday Night Game in LA. Bengals better lay it all out there on the field giving 100 % and then digging deep and giving even more.

[Whacked]

Currently, for a Wild Card spot, beating the Chargers and Broncos “may be” necessary

This game is big. All of them of course.
