Bills are losing to Cincy no matter what at this point.....

Bills could be his first game back.   If they are 3-9 do you think it makes any sense to play him?

He was getting tired being Mike Brown's driver, as part of his 'physical rehab'.

Does it really matter at this point?  I am sure the Pats will get to play against Flacco, because of course they will.

No.  I sit him the rest of the year. They aren't making the playoffs already with 9 losses.  No reason to risk his health on a lost season 

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

Just in time to play us. Can't make this stuff up

He 1000% plays if he can.  Imagine telling a healthy professional athlete that you can't play because of organizational dysfunction.

When part of the dysfunction is that same athlete is made of glass then I'd have no problem telling him to sit.

While he is quite fragile, sitting him would start a messy offseason divorce.  The Bengals don't want that (yet).

[BuffaloMatt]

He will probably throw 4 TDs. I hate Mondays after a loss, I'm so negative.

Bengals are 2 games out of the Division lead 

 

Same as us 

 

Difference is the Steelers are a joke and the Ravens still play Green Bay and New England, plus Pittsburgh twice. 

 

Also, Bengals get the Ravens twice. 

 

It's not a sure bet or anything but with Burrow back soon the Bengals have a real shot at that division.

They will play him just to torch us.

Unless he gets hurt again before we play them.

We're actually only a game and a half out because the Pats haven't had their bye yet. Also, the Bengals play in Pittsburgh this Sunday. That's a HUGE game for them.

If Bengals get that W then it's on for them in terms of the Division race

 

They would almost control their own destiny 

[fridge]

Somehow I think Flacco would shred our soft zone more, but either way it won't be pretty. McDermott is not in a position to walk into an offense like Cincy's and hold them to anything other than 35-40 points.

[C.Biscuit97]

I think Flacco is the better qb so that could make the game easier for us!
