His analyst is from the year 1988.

NO was balanced run/pass and they lost, because they didn't run the ball effectively. Eagles ran the ball well but were pass happy that game.
TB was pass happy in their game and won.
CLE was balanced and lost because their QB is ass.

The number of times you run compared to pass is irrelevant. How effective you are running and having a QB that can move the chains on 3rd down is important. Stopping the other team on 3rd down is just as important. Getting TDs in the red zone. Important. Keeping the other team at or below 4ypc. Important. Turnovers. Important. Runn/pass ratio, not so important. 

What do you think of my analyst?

Despite a slow week last week, I think Burrow will have a big game on Sunday and I feel like he's going to have a big rest of the year.

I think our defense can hold their run game from exploding and then I like Hendrickson to wreak havoc in the pass rush, as well as the rest of our front seven.

Keep contain, read your keys, and don't bite on fakes.

BRING THE NOISE IN THE JUNGLE WHILE WE'RE ON DEFENSE!

I would never say it is irrelevant run compared to pass  schemes because you are totally leaving out defenses and their schemes , strengths, weaknesses. So i would disagree with yours in this game

Effectiveness is the important part. Not numbers. 

My analyst wants to know who you think you are!?

Hill is way more effective in shotgun than Henry and it isnt close. The Ravens are a run centric team, he fits their scheme, when they need to pass, like vs us, he doesnt see the field, not sure how you dont grasp this?

Sad but true Zac should have a game plan in place if Tee doesn’t go. I don’t wanna hear they doubled Chase and our offense struggled. Hopefully we see more double TE sets like the Chiefs game where all 3 were TE’s factors. I know they don’t trust Burton running every down plays but just have him go deep when he’s in he’s the only WR who can separate outside of Chase.

Bengals 27 Eagles 24

Both teams could score 28 points, so I give the edge to the Home Team.....OK, I know Bengals haven't won a Home Game in 2024, but at least not playing in Philly. So I give edge to THE JUNGLE as Bengals win first home game AND climb to 4-4 on the season as they pull the car out of that ditch.

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

Inactives:

WR Higgins, TE McLachlin, DE C. Johnson, DT Tufele, S Anthony.

Barkley is more of a nightmare than Henry for “our” D IMHO

I hate playing stout D’s and w/o Tee (?) - this will be even rougher.

30-17 bad guys.

Wish I was eating crow.

1st (Moore)
16th (Njoku)

23rd (Jeudy)

...pass catchers in average separation for the whole NFL that week. Need to be better than that against AJ Brown/Devonta Smith/Dallas Goedert. Also Saquon Barkley is 3rd in the NFL in rushing and averaging 6.1 yards per carry. Hurts rushed for 2 TDs last week and QBs running have hurt us.

This week will certainly answer us the question of if our defense actually improved from earlier in the season, or if it was just a mirage from playing Daniel Jones and Deshaun Watson back-to-back weeks.

Nope, it was a mirage from playing Daniel Jones and Deshaun Watson. Guys wide open all day yet again.
