Imagine the sky is falling crowd if Mahomes had competed 45% of his passes for less than 100 yds, with the best receivers in the league, and gotten blown out by the Browns. LMAO

Uh….no there wasn’t.

LOOKS FAMILIAR

And yet the media will totally give Burrow a pass, something they don't do with Mahomes when he has even a slightly off game. He scored 20 the other night without Kelce and with a lousy receiving group that had like 10 drops.

Then he isn't that great. No OL is perfect.

WTF?

Outside of QB, I've never seen such disagreement about how good a player is. There are guys that know tons more than I do about football, but I just didn't understand the OBJ fluffers -- it's almost as if there was a cult of personality around the guy. Strange stuff.

He wants a penis

They'll blame the 'conditions' (slight drizzle)

It’s easy to make claims that you know can’t be proven or disproven.

I honestly have no idea what you’re talking about. My experience is that very few people here respected Brown’s ability.

I was called an idiot for about a year by many of you when I suggested we let OBJ walk. I'm not going to go back and look for the posts. You do the work. There was also a poll that started 70/30 and then by the end of last season was down to about 55/45 once they looked at his play closer.

Holy **** balls. What happened?!?

Cincy has had some pretty bad losses to Cleveland in the past few years. This one is just a continuation of that trend. Myles Garrett is the perfect game-wrecker to screw up everything for Burrow.

219 guaranteed. 3 points with elite weapons.

Unfortunately our 'game-wrecker' wants more $$:rolleyes:

Of course because when you have 'thee best' you will be called out and IMO wear it like a badge of honor:thumb:

Division game on the road with really bad rain for a qb who didn’t really have a preseason. Still, that is an atrocious performance.

The only time Chris Jones has wrecked a game against Burrow was when Burrow's entire OL was wiped out with injury. Jones is nowhere close to the effectiveness of Myles Garrett (or TJ Watt) against Burrow, based on all the previous games we have seen for these guys the last few years. Garrett and Watt have found a way to give Burrow a hard time even when he has a 100% healthy OL and healthy weapons.

Cindy should flip their tackles.

FoxTail McBitchTits would have a moody, tho.

I never thought it was a bad idea to let him walk and I know a lot of others viewed it the same. Also, not wanting to let him walk doesn’t mean you’re wowed by his ability. Some people just wanted continuity and didn’t want to risk ending up with a truly bad player at such an important position.

Browns after the game:

Watson > Burrow

I feel like I'm going back to three years ago.

Yeah, not sure what he's talking about. There were quite a few that banged the table for continuity there were just as many sick of his shit and wanted him gone.

There's nothing I'd find funnier than OBJ flopping at the Bungholes...but that is a very good Browns DL. CP loved the OBJ trade (I didn't really see the fit) and then hated him (I sort of got it but thought it was OTT). He's probably going to be an upgrade for them, he's going to be pretty solid. If he's not then I will enjoy every minute of it.

Now we all point at the Bengals and laugh.

Bengals got asswhooped by the Cleveland Browns

Only saw a quarter or so of gameplay but Brown looked pretty bad from what I saw.

They beat the Bengals regularly. LMAO

Loved seeing the Bengals getting blown out. Now I just need to see the Bills get their shit pushed in by the Jets and I can walk away from this weekend feeling positive. The Chiefs went up against a potential NFC monster and nearly got the W with key pieces missing. This is gonna be a fun ride, same as the last 5 years!

He looked very rusty.

Orlando looked pretty bad in early season games with the Chiefs as well. Seemed to improve in later parts of the season with KC. I would assume he will show some improvement as this season goes along as well.

But Orlando will never be an elite guy, and the Bengals will have to scheme around his problems just like KC schemed around his problems. At least from Cincy's perspective, they didn't get stuck with a $25M per year salary on the guy. He had to eat some major humble pie in signing that $16M per year deal with Cincy.

Detroit? Monster??? LMAO
They're a possible NFC playoff team. KC had no business losing to them.
But yes, it was good to see the Bengals get blown out, and OBJ and Burrow struggle. Burrow looked very rusty. Looked like a guy that missed all of training camp and the preseason. And OBJ Bitch Tits Fox Tail looked like the slow moving turd he is.

Because he's a fat **** who eats pizzas and plays video games all off-season. he relies on just being huge and is never in any kind of shape besides round when he comes into camp.

I didn't like him when he came available, I was against pursuing him, I always thought he was a poor fit for a pass first offense, and I was glad when we moved on.

Now I'm glad he's in Cinci, and going to get Burrow killed.

Burrow, at $55 million a year, received $39,454.81 for every yard he threw for today...

Ain't it grand? LMAO

The shitty thing for them is their division has 2 of the very best pass rushers (Garrett & Watt), along with another very good defense in Baltimore. I suppose this helps Cincy be prepared for games against the likes of KC or Buffalo. But those OL problems won't get easier for them over time, especially not when the big money starts kicking in with Burrow & Chase.

Monster by NFC standards I mean. I think the Lions are a force over on that side. We played them in a state of disarray. Losing Kelce clearly threw us out of wack a bit. If he was in that game we win easily.

Well there were certainly a lot that said there was no way we could afford the draft capital to move up and draft a starting rookie LT and there wasn't any viable options in FA or trade and Brown was actually a top LT if not exactly elite so even if he didn't exactly fit the Chiefs offense...

KC had no option but to meet his demand...

That's what I remember.

Thats probably correct. Detroit is a level below Philly, and SF, but they are gonna be a team to be reckoned with in the NFC
Took a terrible performance by a lot of people to lose that game, and we still almost won. It was very uncharacteristic of the Chiefs though, that's what wasdisturbing about it.

Over and over again it's the OLs fault. Every time they lose it's never Joe it's the OL. No, its Joe. He sucked.

it is nice to see that they got their asses whooped by the Browns ROFL

They don't have an OL problem. They have a Joe can't move problem. He isn't elite and holds the ball. Tell Joe to find some pocket presence.

Burrow is now 0-3 @ Cleveland

I think it’s both.

That OL is garbage and he holds the ball too long.

This won’t work. Burrow might be the next Andrew Luck at this rate.

Yup. Said that a couple weeks ago. If they don’t focus on that line his career will be as short as Luck’s. They better hope they can draft them as Burrow’s contract isn’t very flexible and they still have to pay other players.

I don't think it's the O-line really. They upgraded their O-line last year and he still took sacks. I don't think OBJ is horrible but I doubt he is any upgrade compared to who they had before. Sacks taken are more of a QB problem than a O-line issue most of the time IMO.

Who Dey?


Teams that got ass beat by the Cleveland Browns for 400 Alex

Today obj got completely worked by zadarius. Field conditions were sloppy and smith is a good player. But it was on another level of bad.

OBJ is a shitty LT. They ****ed up and they will regret it.

So… even though burrow is smug I can’t hate on the dude too much.

Why does everyone love the rest of the team so much? Jamar running his mouth before and after the game… again. Mixons off the field shit gets ignored. OBJ running his mouth all offseason only to put that performance up.

Yawn, $275 mill and all you can do is get a field goal? LMAO

I dislike Chase far more than anyone else.

Eventually you get to Burrow whom I dislike too. Mixon slightly below him.

But otherwise, they’re unremarkable in terms of villains.

But Chase, man, he’s the worst.

Joe Burrow has resting douche face

Today firmly entrenched the Chiefs as still the class of the AFC, just a drop away from everyone rolling their eyes at us again.

I wonder what the 4th string QB is getting the o-line for Christmas

Gift cards to your mom's bedroom?

I mean... yes, let's all laugh at the 'gals, they deserve it. But Burrow missed basically the whole camp, did he not. Plus he's got to be dodging the guys Orlando Brown is supposed to be blocking with a calf injury which can't be easy.

The Chiefs are 0-1, and their offense looked lost on national television last Thursday. Nobody is throwing them away, but they'll need to win next week if they want anybody considering them the "class of the AFC".

Ok, YOU have NOTHING to say - YOUR team got OWNED in the most GLORIOUS way I have witnessed! 3 ****ING points! YOUR team got OWNED! $275 million dollars of FAILURE! But wait, now comes contracts for Chase, Higgins, Mixon. How is that gonna pan out for you? Um, waiting?ROFL

It's an over-reaction to say the offense look lost.

The narrative changes almost completely if 2 or 3 passes are caught.

They do need to win. And if they win with a strong defensive showing against what is now almost certainly an elite Jaguars offense, consider them a lock to represent the AFC until someone proves otherwise.

I completely agree that OBJ sucks but Burrow is going to take sacks regardless of the line. Because he holds the ball too long. It's just what he does and always will do.

Which of Joe’s 82 yards did you enjoy the most today?

If you can’t pick one, I’ll accept 2 total yards as an answer. That performance was dynamic and deserves to be analyzed.

Here’s a funny one:

My preferred embedding site isn’t working, so if someone would be so kind. It’s good for a laugh.

And another funny one:

https://x.com/cincity808/status/1699...1Sen9RfmN22RAw

They didn’t look lost but even if you want to say they look lost, then that’s actually a pretty dang good performance for an offense that was “lost” given even one more dropped pass caught likely leads to a win. Every other team would love to perform like that when they are looking lost.

I'm so grateful Orlando Brown Jr was stupid as hell and turned down that IDIOTIC offer the Chiefs extended to him once upon a time.

Okay, "lost" may be a bit too far. But it's the first time in the Mahomes era that I remember not having a single reliable target to throw to. Not that a few didn't make some plays, but the most memorable thing from that game was the plethora of drops, which was magnified by the knowledge that it was an unproven group.

By lost do you mean dropped passes that hit them square in the hands?

LMAO

Bet that the Giants "hold my beer'd" that one.

Reality is already setting in for Bengal fan:

I’m really worried about Orlando Brown Jr. He seemed slow and struggled a lot against speed rushers. Maybe I overrated him given that he had made some Pro Bowls, but I kinda see why a lot of Chiefs fans didn’t feel like his loss was a big deal.

Hopefully he and the rest of the team can recover.

That twat Eli Apple was the worst. At least Chase is good (well except for today LOL)

You'd think Bengals of all fans would get it. A fair bit of the abuse that Brown took was from them. Reid/Mahomes did a nice job mitigating it, but those asshats should have at least seen those games.

OBJ will improve for them as he did for us, especially when he gets help. But the rest of their OL wasn't great either. I do think that Browns DL is elite, but it was still a beat down.I hated Eli Apple, but the rest of them are obnoxious too. Gonna be a team I enjoy watching lose

Joe Shiesty on X is MIA. There were a number of positives to take away from the DET game for us, particularly on defense. In the end we dropped the ball, quite literally. CIN on the other hand was throughly beaten by a divisional opponent.

We have work to do in KC. In CIN... they have problems.

Slow? You don't say?!?
