Lap went on about that play on the radio broadcast. An ex-offensive lineman himself, he sounded like he genuinely empathized with him and said the Raiders should get hm some help. It's probably never good when the opposing team's color guy is feeling sorry for you.

Loving his focus right now. You can see the losses and their record are absolutely killing him.

I will give my vote to Chase Brown as this is his first 100+ yard rushing game.
Trey was a beast and he owned the LT's of the Raiders. Joe was fantastic except for the pick 6.
Great game to watch. Let's go beat down those Ravens next, it is time.

Makes me smile. I did see some great things from these rookies.

Yeah, this is why he is my QB. We need to be much better than this. The rest of the team should feed off of him and I think it is starting.
But, Zac better be on notice. This is Joe's team and we cannot hurt the guy by putting crap around him. I like Mims, Karras and Orlando
but we need to help him out. Chase Brown is crazy quick but he still is not a blocker. Help out Joe.

I like the growth, nate. No more Volson toleration!

Bad blocking or a great move to not get blocked by defender. Looked like little to no effort to block him.

Btw Passer Rating and QBR are two different things.
For this game Joe had:
Passer rating - 115.5
QBR - 85.5
Bothers my OCD when people mix them up.

Basically nobody except ESPN uses QBR because everyone else knows it is a dumb metric ESPN made up to try to be relevant.

Chase Brown, he met the challenge and showed that he is the man, now his star is beginning to shine.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

I love his wicked acceleration and shiftiness. We should be abusing teams w more screens.
Our inept coaches haven’t noticed yet and keep using him like Jerome Bettis.

Yoshi whiffed badly on that play.

I'm going with Joe.....but Trey, Mike, and Chase all made it a tough decision. This is the Mike Gesicki I wanted a couple of years ago in FA. He's out there beating DBs to get open, and some of the WRs can't do it. Hendrickson was a game wrecker yesterday. It was the Chase Brown show early and often.... really good showing. Joe was surgical though....and he showed a little more of that vocal leadership this team will need as draft picks replace vets in the coming years. There was a lot of good yesterday, mixed with a little bad here and there. Joe was just that good, and I can't see giving the ball to anyone else as a result. His pocket presence was absolutely nothing short of perfection.

I thought the entire offensiveline was incredible best I have seen out of the Bengals in awhile.

You really have to give it up for Ford and Mims. I know Burrow got sacked a couple of times, but Crosby could have made for a very bad day.

4 Sacks is just an incredible day. And he should have had a 5th (along with a FF), but the refs decided to call it a pass because as Trey was sacking him, his arm happened to move forward (mostly due to the force of Trey hitting it).
For that reason, I give it to Hendrickson.
I could also give it to Burrow, but he has enough game balls :)
