Zac gets his winning record for the season or we end up with a better draft pick.

BEAT CLEVELAND IN THE JUNGLE
So some guys that have cleaned out their locker already, will not be playing.
However the majority of the Bengals team is playing...THIS is Our Team
For the Cincinnati Fans who bought tickets in THE JUNGLE....BEAT CLEVELAND.
and Go Browning, he could win his 4th game at QB, which is more than expected when Burrow went down.
GO BENGALS.....BEAT CLEVELAND......ROAR

Meaningless game. Rest all important players. Play all the backups. Why risk more injury?
4 seasons of Burrow now. Maybe season 5 is the season he actually makes it through training camp and the season without injury.
Only way we beat the Browns is if we play all starters and they rest everyone. Even then it’s still questionable.
Go Bills!!!!

You've been warned...

I've brought it up before, but this seems as good a time as any to remind everyone.
Any coach/QB combo that has ever won a SB, did so in their first 5 years together. If they didn't win a SB within that first 5 year window together, they never won one, in the entire history of the NFL. A QB or a coach that's been in the league longer than 5 years has won one or more, obviously, but never after being together for more than 5 years.

Little something, that means nothing, to ponder.
Super bowl 56 logo.
Orange primary color (bengals)
Yellow secondary color (rams) won SB
Super bowl 57 logo.
Green primary color (eagles)
Red secondary color (chiefs) won SB
Super bowl 58 logo.
Purple primary color (ravens?)
Red secondary color (49ers?)
If the 49ers beat the Ravens in the SB this year, ramp up the "NFL script" talk and how they're telling the winner based on the colors in the SB logo, on the down low.

Yeah. He's got some wheels from what I remember so he'll have the ability to extend some plays. Curious what Clevelands depth looks like all around. They have dealt with a decent amount of injuries and never really missed a beat.

Just going to enjoy the last game of the season. No matter how much I may complain about them I am always a little sad when the season ends.

Yes but they were deep into the 4th quarter with the ball in a Super Bowl with a good chance to Win.
Then in the AFC Championship game the next year and it was a close game late.
I am not dead set on a 5 year or it can't never work Timeline.
They were right there once already and barely lost that Super Bowl game against the Rams.

This has not been the season we expected, and certainly not the season we deserved, but it is the season we got. Since there will be nothing resembling a Bengals' game for seven-plus months, I hope we can enjoy this one in here.
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.

Nice punt by Driskel
