Yes, it was ugly, but most games against AFCN teams are ugly.
13-4 overall and final 4 in the AFC. Injuries are mounting, but seeing guys like Wilson, Hubbard and Sample step up is encouraging for the future.
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.

Bunch of you thought losing Jonah wouldn’t hurt
Boy, that 2nd half offense was non existent outside of the first drive

Carman was turrible. Time to legit call Whit.

Man that game was hard to watch.... our offense was not inspiring and missing 3 starters on the line is a killer.
Credit to Balitmore defense they played chippy playoff football we can call it dirty or whatever but their gameplan worked to perfection.
On to Buffalo we can exploit their defense... I just hope our D shows up.

I have no idea is Whitt is in football shape, but if he was and came back, what a story

I mentioned this in the discord...it's been 3 decades since the last time a WC game winner that allowed 30 or more points also won the next week. Teams are 0-7 since then. Hopefully, they keep that streak alive next week!

Hard to watch but that rumble down the field by Hub was awesome. The D bent but wouldn’t break.

Just stop. Even if he wasn't under contract, he hasn't played or even practiced in a year, he's lost a shit ton of weight, and he does not know this offense. Might as well call Munoz...

I didn't think Carman was that bad given the ciricumstance.
The first sack was a miscommunication between him and Perine.

Current whit is an upgrade over a 3rd string guard

The whole offense was non existent after the first bengals drive of the 2nd half
And that’s due to the o-line especially Carmen.

Hilarious how those predicting blowouts get brought back down to reality.

I wish they would've called him a couple of weeks or two ago and seen if they could get him in the building. Whitworth said he would love to be apart of what's going on here. He wasn't sure about the right side and mentioned that things would have to be worked out. I'd say do it just for the superbowl karma and the dude can retire a Bengal.

And then find someone to blame it on rather than just admit their original pisition was stupid.

I'm happy we came away with the win tonight, it crosses off another first for the Bengals winning a playoff game in back-to-back years.
Having said that, I feel we are screwed with the injury bug. This OL is down to 2 starters on the OL (one being a rookie) No way we are getting a ring this year with this OL. The running game is non existent. Absolutely ridiculous we had 51 total rushing yards. 2.8 yards average per carry. Joe isnt going to have time to do anything other than dink and dunk with the lack of time for a play to develop. And here we are again with the same issue....
Also, WTF is up with McSybil and his kicking game?

Even Whit himself said he knew he could handle the left side and would be confident. Now saying that I don't think we can get him for a week and be ready. We should've done it 2 weeks ago.

I'll be curious to see the breakdowns of Carman. I didn't think he was too bad. He gave up the sack but it looked like he was expecting a chip to push his guy back to him.

I was going to say the samething. The kid hasn't played any substantial time this season, let alone Lt. It wasn't like Jonah was playing great.

That was Charman's one negative play. Averaged out better but we have games left.
