What is awesome, something that you kind of brought up here is that the FO finally forking out the dough for top FA's actually
worked.
I was afraid if it didn't work and many stayed injured like Waynes it would deter them from doing the same in FA again.
It worked FO, keep it up and protect Burrow while adding decent run blockers and this team can be the best in the NFL without
weakness barring injuries. We have been very blessed with our lack of injuries but we did lose a lot of guys too, in Ossai, Reiff,
D'Ante Smith, Waynes, ADG, Ogunjobi, Hubert etc.
Also Trey Hopkins being banged up most of the year coming off that ACL injury has been rough. It hasn't been all rainbows
which makes me believe we finally have a good coaching staff that can coach the next man up. This is huge. Props to Taylor
and the rest of the coaches for this and keeping this team disciplined.
BTW, keep the false starts at a minimum tomorrow please. People have been saying Prince didn't give up a pressure against
the Titans which I would argue with but he did have 2 false starts at least. Cannot have this tomorrow in an even louder stadium.
Hey Thanks Nate. Just been working my butt off lately, went through a break up, ya know all that hood stuff.
Don’t let my lack of posting fool ya I have been loving this team. And yes my co workers are salty. A couple Pitt, Dal, GB and NE fans so it was awesome to see us out last all of them. I do think it’s amazing that our core offensive weapons have stayed healthy and is a huge part of our success. But like you said we still lost some good players that could have helped us on this run. I can’t help but think that finally having a consistent and confident QB and kicker, lol yes a kicker has been what this team has needed.
It almost feels strange saying the things I have said about this team, the staff and front office and meaning it, but it’s about damn time! It’s our time, our decade, our division and hopefully our conference for the next ten years. Won’t be easy with the insane talented QB’s in the AFC but this team has finally arrived. Just trying to soak it in and enjoy the moment. We are truly the greatest fan base in the greatest sport. We deserve this, we needed this. I can’t wait till tomorrow, it’s going to be tough. Like you said we have to keep the false starts to a min with the crowd noise. Can’t get ourselves in too many 3rd and longs against this team in that environment. If we win I think it will be because of our D making plays, giving us as many opportunities in offense as possible keeping Mahomes on the sideline as much as we can. But like I said before, I’m already proud of this team win or lose. Moving forward just a playoff win or two won’t be the goal. We have a team now that expects to win. And if we beef up that line and add a few more key position players the AFC will have to go through Cincinnati for the next decade.
Hope you enjoy the game, wish I still lived in Cincy but I think I found a Bengals bar here in Charlotte I’m going to check out tomorrow. Just sucks watching what I feel like I’ve been waiting my whole life for alone. So thanks to you Nate and the rest of the board for having a place here to talk about the excitement. If anyone on here is in the Charlotte area hit me up if you know any cool spots to watch the game. Who-Dey #OurTime
