Not sure Tee would have been a huge impact today, but the offense looks very stagnant without him. His agent probably liked seeing that final score.

The issues today far outweighed Tee Higgins not being out there.
That said, could he have made a difference, perhaps, but the Bengals should have had this game pretty easy for the home opener without him. It was just a complete crapshow on offense as the defense just isn't good enough. The entire team looked unprepared against a team that didn't, and it showed as it wasn't even a close game to be honest. “Don't give up. Don't ever give up.” - Jimmy V

I dont think that it is weird to mention it all. It is weird to take the time to to post a comment in a thread calling it weird with all of the other game talk going on.

Tee was pretty inconsistent last year. And I really like him. Injuries contributed a lot last year and not having Burrow.

This offense has looked fine in years past when Tee or Chase don't play. Everyone needs to chill the hell out. The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy

They built this team around Burrow/Chase/Tee. I don’t know WTH their identity is supposed to be if it’s not those 3. Outside of Trey we just don’t have any studs on other side of the ball. So if you’re not going to have a top defense, and you’re not going to be a good running team, and you’re not going to pay to keep Tee, then what exactly is the plan here?

Basically the entire team looked unprepared, not at all motivated, and just going thru the motions. Oh for sure there were a few plays here and some good effort there. Overall though - giant shit show. I doubt Tee would have made a difference enough to change outcome.

Unfortunately that still = being a horrible NFL owner, especially when you are the self titled GM.

If Tee is in the lineup today than JB doesn't have
To target Tanner Hudson at all. I think Tee's absence impacted the offense Go look at JBs red zone shot to Irwin Irwin does not have the hops or radius to come Down with that ball. In fact why was Irwin running that route any way? Let Andre run that route But with no Tee in the offense defenses just double Chase Play Cover 2 High

Mike Brown wants to win the same way people who eat ice cream every day want to be shredded and fit or the same way people who never get off the couch want to be rich and famous.

Heck man, maybe in some sick and twisted way MB likes when the Bengals lose just to spite all the fans that pile on him decade after decade. Maybe he has stacks of 10k cash laying around like Prince and when the Bengals lose he just picks a stack up, smells it and smiles and thinks of all the fans tears.

He averaged 77 yards per a game in 2021 and 73 yards per a game.( not counting the @ravens game and Browns game were be played very little and had zero targets) point being he has always been a big part of this offense when healthy.

We also need to remember that Callahan is no longer with the Bengals. We haven't seen whether this offense can get going without Callahan yet. I know Taylor runs a lot of the offense, but how much of a difference did Callahan make? Also, no Boyd in stripes to help cover the Bengals being down Higgins or Chase. Iosivas with just 26 yards as the 2nd most receiving yards on the team today. Not good. But regardless, the Bengals allowed Stevenson to go off for 120-1 on 25 carries. Brissett passed for 1 more yard than Stevenson rushed for. If this defense can't stop a clear rush-focused attack, we're in for a long season.

I see a team like GB who is doing more with arguably far less on offense. Jordan Love is not as good as Burrow, talent-wise. Their offensive playmakers are nowhere near the caliber of the Bengals. Maybe it's the playcalling and/or the OL. The OL did allow 3 sacks. While not a high amount, Burrow didn't seem to have all the time in the world either. Bengals should have put up 21+ on the Pats, easy.
