I think in order for us to beat them it would be nice to win the coin toss and then take advantage of getting the ball after half by scoring before and after half time. Protect Burrow and hopefully get Tee and Boyd involved a little more as I have a hard time thinking they let Chase repeat ( although they couldn't stop Gabriel Davis). On Defense do the best you can to limit them which again after watching last night might just mean like 3-4 stops. Then hopefully we can find ourselves either tied or close to tied at the end and we can get the clock down for a walkoff field goal.

We held them to 3pts in the 2nd half in week 17 but we really controlled the clock and ball and limited they're opportunities. Which I think is gonna be a very hard thing to replicate.

I agree it'll be a battle to do it again.  But it was considered a possibility that the first Baltimore game this year was a fluke as well, and then the second game happened and almost the exact same score.  So it's possible to beat a team soundly twice (no, I'm not saying the Ratbirds of 2021 are on the same level as the Chiefs).  If the Bengals operate at top level like they did a few weeks ago, they can pull it off again.  It'll be harder given the circumstances of the game and the crowd noise there, but not impossible.  The team has momentum, energy and plays/scores throughout the game seem to mean nothing to this team.  Getting down, seemingly getting beat, this Bengals team has just been powering through until the last whistle.  Which is quite frankly the only way to get this far into the post-season regardless of talent.
