Lol. Sorry. Couldn’t resist

What Chicago showed was we cannot have another game where Zac Taylor's weird game plans handcuff the offense. Notice that once he took the chains off and let Burrow air it out we scored pretty quickly. He needs to let Burrow be Burrow from the first snap this time.

Definitely. Its a good thing the Bengals have been one of the better defensive fronts in the NFL this year. Stop the Run, Create Pressure, and Tackle. People might be writing this off but this is a winnable game for the Bengals.

Nailed it

Like many others have said this is our biggest test yet. I'm anxious to see how much we really measure up ?

We need to get some pressure on Rodgers and we need to be able to run the ball.

Put up some 1st qtr. points and we might make a game of it.

Also beware of The Blitz, because the cagey veteran will read the D and burn the spots vacated by the blitzing defenders.  Unlike Big Ben, Rodgers is still pretty mobile and can still take off and run also. 

Packers will score 30 some points.  I just hope Bengals score more. GO BENGALS. 

Good chance.  They put up 30 in San Fran.  They called off the dogs against the steelers.  Their game with pitt was eerily similar to that of the Bengals.

This is THE test so far for the defense.  Can they stifle their rushing attack and force them to be one-dimensional and if that happens, can they pressure Rogers.

I somewhat agree with many on here that it will be on the offense to put up their biggest point total of the year.  WIll take 4 quarters of great play.

Part of that game plan was to keep Chicago's premiere edge DE's from killing Burrow. If we had started airing it out early in the game, and Burrow was injured, everyone would be blaming Taylor for that as well.
