***Week 9 GameDay Thread - Raiders @ Bengals***

[Housh]

Dude get someone who can defend Bowers on 3rd down god damn

Someone be assertive and volunteer to stick him Jesus Christ

He’s caught 3 3rd downs already, ****

[Nicomo Cosca]

No way Bowers doesn’t go over 100 today.

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

DJ Ivey or Josh Newton covering Brock Bowers just feels like an eternally losing matchup for us.

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

We are so vanilla.

[bengalrick]

It’s amazing how this franchise has historically been unable to cover the tight end……

That's what happens when you are only allowed to have a certain number of practices with pads on, and a limitation to the techniques that can be used.

[GodFather]

This defense can’t stop anything. Yet no way are they trading to improve the pass rush.

It was Battle earlier this drive.

Play action for a long pass in one of these drives.

True, and they almost always try to strip the ball. 

[Joelist]

No pressure, easy throws. Trey is again losing matchups against a backup.

[Timanky12]

A drop and a stop, celebrate

[Browns Town Bengal]

[Atomic Orange]

Nice play Battle.

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

Good play by Battle there.

[Destro]

Whew. That was a relief.

[Bengalion]

What a play by Battle

Oh yeah, he's in my line-up in TB FFBL. I knew that they weren't going to be able to cover him. 

[Nicomo Cosca]

Big play Battle
