...is never easy. Even though there were a lot of Burrow fan boys/girls in the Dome, the place is electric. Congrats to these guys. May not have been pretty, but this was a much needed win and hopefully is a turning point in the season. A lot of folks (myself included) have been looking forward to this game since last season, to relive a little bit of 2019. Wish I could have been there with my Burreaux jersey. Not sure if I would've won the LSU one, or the Bengals one and gotten my @$$ kicked.
Very happy for the Bengals, the Saints' season is lost anyway. Finally a close game goes in the Bengals' favor. Can't wait til next week. Hopefully this was a turning point in the season. You can't overlook a morale booster like this. And you all have to take into account, this team is absolutely better than the record indicates.
Also I expect the Burrow / Chase tunnel vision complainers to identify yourselves... I told you so!!
Last thought... Burrow doing things like wearing his LSU jersey is precisely why even Saints fans, deep down, pull for him at least a little bit. Gave me friggin goosebumps.
Congrats.

Yeah now that they finally decided to take what the D gives it opens up all sorts of possibilities. Chase will get his.

He should really just be quiet. He was horrendous today, and one of the main reasons it was even a close game.

Yeah aside from that hit on Taysom he didn't play very well.

And it was against backups and practice squad players, too. Aside from Chido the CB’s were really bad today.

For the love of Jesus. They need him to go to the Front Office. Tell him if he tweets again, he is cut. Just shut up. You are not built like that. 17 point win if he is not a bum. You are literally the worst Bengal defensive player, in my opinion. Take your social media mouth out to the streets of NO and talk that same stuff and save us the trouble.

Just barely, but it’s nice to see us hit the 30 mark, which is the first time this season. This offense should be doing so more often but at least a step in the right direction. It’s even more important to do so while Reader is out.

Mr. Twitter there is directly responsible for at least 1 Saints TD and probably a FG as well.

He had good coverage on the 4th down play that sealed the game. Overall though I agree, he was pretty trash today. The scheme in general seemed pretty weird though and had the CBs playing 8 yards deep.

Why are folks hating on Eli? He had a solid game. I did see where he lost contain on the TD run but Awuzie and Bell looked equally as bad.
Eli ended the game with 6 tackles. Are we for real mad at a dude who just posted Who Dey>Who Dat?
He didn't say shit about his game

Well despite Saints fans complaining, that was not PI. He had better position than the receiver and then he slipped.

Bingo. Sounds like a team-first quote to me

As I said: Why are folks mad that Eli said: "WHO DEY>WHO DAT"?
I think folks sometimes just get a narrative in their heads and don't give things a rational look.

Eli had a reputation as a crappy DB that couldn't stickanyejete before he came here to play for Lou. He's played solid ball since he's been here, but old narratives are hard to kill

He was really bad today despite the Saints being without their top 3 WR’s. It has nothing to do with “old narratives.”

He may have had a bad day today, but from the crappy stream I watched it appeared all our DBs had bad day. I'm talking about his total body of work in Cincy
