He’s afraid to take the short route and let his guy make the play. He HAS to be the one to make the play.

Yep. Burrow is definitely tilted right now, forcing it, and not making the best decisions.

Nice edit. 

Call it what you want, "reasonable" people don't give up and start whining at 6-0.

The ref calling that a touchdown and raising his arms like an excited toddler was amusing, at least.

******* Zac Taylor will trot him right back out there in a game that is clearly over, thus enduring he gets extra hurt and takes 3-4 more sacks.

Most of us would be very surprised when we're down 24-0 and never came back from that before. Game is not over until there are zeros!

The defense gave up this disappointing offense of ours.

[JumboTron]

Suddenly I find those TD dances Mixon & Co. partake in quite annoying.

[MasonDT70]

Thats much ado about nothing.

[Interceptor]

That Mixon fumble would be the key to a loss. This team rallied to within 2 and gave themselves a chance. That free TD sealed it.

But remember, according to certain posters here he cannot be called out on it.

Gunna give the guy props for toughing it out and managing the game pretty well with a bad finger. But all that, only to end the game on an atrocious INT... 

Can we now all finally agree this one is over? Credit to this who still have hope despite the mountains of evidence against it today!

[Tony]

Burrows turnover are a definite problem now, as if they weren't already..

[*Synric*]

4 turnovers.... can you imagine this game without that Chase bobble turnover ugh...

I'll stop the same ol Bungles thing when they stop being the same ol Bungles.

I'm 47.  Been down this "progress being made" road a few times.  

I always try to be positive.  This thread today is a very rare time I have been negative in GameDay.  I'm just so effing over the Bengals and their progress and the BS next year will be different.

We are the only NFL franchise without a GM.  Fake GM doesn't count.

We needed this game and come out and look like crap as usual.

[MasonDT70]

This is a mess. No one knows what going on

[Housh]

We win out the division and we likely make at least wildcard

No, you just have absolutely no idea what you're talking about and are the most emotional poster on this board. You look like a clown every single week. 

Critiquing a player is fine, and there are plenty of criticisms to be made of Burrow this season. However, calling him a bust or making any definitive judgement on the outcome of his career at this point is just laughable. This is why people bust your balls on the board, because you're a joke. 

[Tony]

This officiating crew is horrible..
