For me, this game is on the defense. Much like last week, although I didn’t realize that heading into the game vs the Jets.
Cleveland is damaged on offense right now and it better look that way in a huge game at home in the jungle. There better be a ton of pressure on Baker. High expectations from me.

I think something similar, if we can control the LOS on both sides of the ball, we win. Our defense last week did not for the first time all year in my opinion. They need a better effort today and our OL always needs to get better each game.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.
Maybe Hendrickson will ruin Mayfield's other shoulder and leave him having to play with an eye patch on one eye and a monocle on the other eye next week as well..

If the front 4 can't get him I am 100% on board. Should have done more blitzing last week too.

This. We stop their pass rush and run game and we win. Simple as that.

Glad to see Chris back, maybe he practiced and reminded Lou that RBs are legal recievers.
Hopefully Tyler can take up a gap and help stop the run and Hakeem has potential!
