This team always responds....

First it was, "What's his name?" "Doesn't matter, we locking them all down". Beat the Chiefs.

Then it was, "Fairly tough defense." Went to Tampa, beat the Bucs.

The league and the owners give us a total screw job, this could be motivation for the next 5 games.

What makes you think they don’t? You’re being silly. They are clearly reacting to an unprecedented issue. You want them to just “shut up and play ball?” Acting as if they don’t have every right to express their frustration is stupid,

Whatever, we would beat them with Lamar as well.  This is a cluster and i hope they use it as fuel.

that is your opinion, i never said not to express frustration, i said time to get focused and it tends to be better to have the organization battle not the players, they need to focus on game more and what ive read from fans of boycotting game that can hurt us also...

I wouldn't have been as confident with past Bengals teams. The spotlight fell on us and we always failed.

Not this team though. I have little doubt that if any team can come through this stronger, it's these Bengals.

I’m curious as to why you don’t think they are focused?

One team got away without doing it...

At the end of the day, I'm glad that kid is looking like he's gonna be alright though. The rest of this is just entertainment... With a pile of bullshit on top of it.

Ted Karras said you dont win the division until you have home field so they are playing like they still have to win it. Joe Mixon said it was no big deal because this wasn't the championship they were after. The guys will be ok

"Let's settle it the real way and (bleeping) win."

It wasn't on camera, but #Bengals captain Ted Karras made his statement loud and clear today. @fox19

You think this locker room is motivated? pic.twitter.com/9eTFquVrid

Yup, no one wants to have to play the Bengals anywhere. Not saying anyone fears playing anyone else. Just that this team is highly motivated and highly capable.

Hamlin recovered = Check

NFL Screws Bengals = Check

I'm no longer concerned about any hangover effect... this team now has a big mfer chip on it's shoulder
