Just hope they don't take their foot off the gas vs Jets and I don't believe Baker Hayfield will have the kind of games vs this D he's had over last couple seasons.

Is Baker playing is the question?

Thought he is hurt for some time...

I’m not sure I believe that just yet, but I expect after this week ends that the Bengals will be a top five team by SRS. By the Bengals point differential, a Pythagorean projection would predict a 12-13 win season for Cincinnati (on my phone so I can’t crunch the numbers at the moment).

They very well may be a legit contender. Still a lot of season.

It's cool seeing some of the hesitancy subside, and as volatile as this team has been over the years, I totally understand. Hopefully some of the nagativity subsides along with it. I've been pretty optimistic about the team, but I think we actually have a chance to be better than I expected this soon.

I believe what I see and I believe im seeing good football. Ain't nothing more to it.

Baker is 4th quarter poison to the Browns.  Let him play so if it's close we can set our watch on him throwing it away. 

Baker is goimg to play to the detriment of his team unless he's in an iron lung.

Thought he tore his shoulder up. Need a Jay Glazier update pronto!

Perfect description. 

I was predicting a close loss pre game but Zac and Lou seem to have this team playing at a whole new level and more importantly the guys are playing for each other and excited for each other. 

Big strides on defense this year, the line is... well it is holding up, they are staying healthy and Burrow seems to be improving each week. They are getting to the top of the league faster then I thought they could. I was in the camp of 6 to 8 wins this year and another jump next year but they are going to be a problem this year for teams.

He's got a torn labrum and fracture in his shoulder. Don't expect to see him against the Bengaks the first time around. They said 1 more hit could send him to surgery...

On to next week and the Jets
Keep bringing there lunch pails

The Jets are an XFL squad with a 3rd string QB playing.  Burrow will be relaxing on the sideline before the 4th quarter.  

[Nati#1]

Gotta keep it up, 1 game at a time. We gotta go beat the jets next week. Can’t overlook anybody!
