No offense, they should all get game balls but man Reader if you're a Bengals Board reader you're the dude tonight.
I agree, Reader is a serious shout for game ball today. The Titans are all about running the ball, and beating you with play action. The number of times Reader was disrupting a Henry run.... he was a major difference between us being caught flat-footed by the Henry threat, and us largely keeping the Titans in check.
Money Mac... game winner. 54 yarder on the road in the playoffs. Rookie btw. Unbelievable poise.
Defence played lights out. The fact Burrow has 300+ yards despite NINE sacks and no serious running game.... is insane. But it wouldn't have won had the defence not played incredible. Tannehill had 3 big plays to AJ Brown... those aside, they gave up nothing all night.
