On that 3rd down that led to the 4th and 1, we simulated the blitz and then dropped the linebackers into the exact zone Burrow completed the pass. How that is even possible is dumbfounding. You dropped linebackers into that space to stop the exact pass that was completed.

Need to keep hitting Burrow. Over and over and over.

Spencer Brown has been absolutely dreadful tonight.

Similar to the INT in the Pats game. Allen is underthrowing the boundary throws.

Rasul Douglas enters the game.

I was shocked when he handed the ball off. I assume it must be play-action.

Dodson could not have played that worse.

We need to play man and jam. Burrow is going to pick the zone apart all night if we don’t switch.

Shocking drop by Kincaid.

Teams that have confounded Cinci play a lot of man. Burrow is cerebral and eats zones alive.

Welp, we don’t have the adversity excuse this year. They just gotta figure it out.

Zone is just the worst possible base defense to play against Burrow.

Through 9 weeks, we are still the only team to have let the Patriots anemic offense score more than 20 points. They are averaging 13.75 points per game against everyone else. Scored 25 on us. I hate the Patriots.

Inevitability. Great word to describe the Brady Pats.

Doubt it.

Don’t think you can blame Daboll for this. He is playing with a 3rd string QB who has never started a game in his life.

Raiders look like a different team without McDaniel.

I can’t stand primetime games. Spend the whole day sitting around waiting.

Out of curiosity, how many miles do you walk per day? Is it rough during the winter or are you used to? It is a fascinating job.

CJ Stroud is the real deal. Panthers must be kicking themselves for not taking him 1st overall.

You’re probably right. In fact, I know you’re right. But I can understand the emotional reaction.

I can understand why you feel that way. It’s not *literally* over if we lose, but it has that feeling of doom due to our upcoming schedule. A loss today would give us 4 losses, with games against Philly, KC, Dallas, Miami, etc coming up. It would also make us 2-4 in the conference, and that matters for tiebreakers. A loss today would give us little margin for error.

Even AFTER tonight, the Bills have a harder road imo.

We actually have 6 games against winning teams. Dolphins winning teams left are Jets, Cowboys, Ravens, Bills. Bills winning teams left are Bengals, Chiefs, Eagles, Cowboys, Jets, Dolphins. The quality of the winning teams remaining for both teams is a big difference.
