KC's secondary is real fast, and really on the same accord. It's just hard. He's going to need to win a lot of 50-50 balls down field I think to have a shot at winning or sustaining offense.

The defense was gassed AF last week in the 4th but that was from chasing Lamar's ass all over the field. I feel like they should have a little more stamina this game.

Not much to talk about.

Cincy going to lose . . . . Bigly.

This is very accurate. The Buffalo weapons this year are awful bar a decent Tight End room.

No receiver in the top 50 in the league, best running back well outside the top 10 and while both Tight Ends are good neither of them is top 5 in the league. Allen is going to have to cook with even worse ingredients than Pat had last year.

Well my eyes could have mislead me but as one of many on here that watches every game, I have always felt the scrambling QB gives us more problems than anybody since Spags came to KC.

I believe it's a philosophical thing where his style of defense for whatever reason puts a lot of pressure on the back seven because they try so damn hard to just keep the QB in the pocket and do not really rush them in a way that gets the ball out of their hands fast.

On the flip side, I feel like his defense is really ****ing hard on pocket QBs (see his success vs. Brady).

I think they’re downplaying how much Patrick wants this game. Of course he wants to win every game. But I promise he’s tired of hearing how he’s got a losing record vs Joey Glass.

It’s also one of the reasons I hope we play the Lions in the SB. Patrick will hear for two weeks how he’s never beaten Goff. And he will take that shit PERSONALLY!

I hope Danna and or FAU burns the artist formerly known as Orlando Brown over and over

Bungles are horrible with this.

He’s on the tag. I doubt he’s gonna be willing to risk further injury, if he’s still not 100%.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

The only thing I fear is Jumpball Joe completes like 90% of those garbage 50 50 hero balls against us. It's so lame.

[ThyKingdomCome15]

Burrow isn't himself after that injury and his OL is still trash. This will be a statement game.

Also a win here basically knocks Cincy out of the running to get the one seed. Time to cook the kitties early.

That's what he's done every time he's won, so I think it's reasonable to say he'll need the 50/50 balls regardless of what else they have going on.

Bit concerned about Suamataia going against Hendrickson. Hopefully if he's struggling Reid gets some help over there quick. Or just give him constant chip help off the rip from Kelce and Gray.

The Pats had 170 yards on the ground against them. Establishing the ability to run will do a lot for pass protection.

This. Run, screen, and quick slant them and that pass rush won’t matter.

[Sassy Squatch]

Bengals put pressure on Jacoby Brissett on 44.8% of his dropbacks, and nearly half of those came solely from Hendrickson. The rest of their DL ****ing sucks now, so chip and double team that dude into irrelevance.
