A sobering thought just occurred to me-there’s only three games left this season. Damn. Well, at least I’ve got the Senators and Sillycuse to watch. Okay, do me a favor and gouge my eyes out. If it was good enough for Zedekiah then by gum, it’s good enough for me!
To The Game!
Bengals/Chiefs:
-Much has been made of the bananas shootout game back in week 17 and how we might see a repeat of that. Can I throw a bit of cold water on that?
-Well, for one thing, Cincy has been averaging all of 20 points per game during their last three while K.C. has been on fire, averaging 35 in their last 5.
-Sure, Evan McPherson has been rightfully given his props for his swagger and coolness under pressure but settling for field goals in this game is going to get the Bengals a blowout loss.
-Is it Tee Time? A fella (Montgomery might be his name?) on a Rotowire podcast noted something that I found interesting. Wr Chase, in his first game with a few teams went gangbusters. Versus Pittsburgh he had 65 yards and 2 TD’s-after they made adjustments for the second game he was shut down and it was Higgins that had 114 and a TD. And it was the same with the Ravens-201 yards and 2 TD’s the first time around but it was Higgins that had 194 and 2 TD’s in the return tilt. No doubt Spagnoulo will tweak things regarding coverages on Chase and perhaps that opens the door for Tee.
-Is Burrow’s willingness to take a sack part of his overall strategy of protecting the ball? He’s had only one interception in his last seven games and that was off the hands of Perine last week.
-Yes, there were 9 sacks taken last week but previous to that in the 4 games prior he was getting dumped 2.4 times a game. As far as (very) recent history is concerned, the Titans game may have been an outlier.
-Can you outscore the Chiefs at home? The Chargers and Bills accomplished the feat but that was way back in week’s 3 and 5. Mahomes is 8:1 with a 9.4 YPA and a 76% completion rate in the playoffs so far.
-Another sobering thought but this time for Cincy fans-they’ve scored but one TD in their last 18 drives.
Enjoy what’s on offer.
Oh, Tony, honey, don’t say that
Romo’s gone meta…
One more and then you kick it on 3rd down, right?
“This might be really happening but there are a lot of factors to consider. For one…”
-Redshirt, pondering a Bengals W
This cake tastes like bananas!
Bengals are Rocking!!!
ROAR!!!! 🐅
KC defenders acting like they just want to let them score to get the ball back. Reid coaching of overtime rules with McNabb strikes again.
Romo trying to jinx both teams.
he likes it on the right hash
I like hash.
Well holy shit.
CURSE OF ROMO
Oh Bengals, don’t let Redshirt down!
Burrow trusts Higgins with the 1st downs, trusts Chase with the home runs.
Seems like a certain Naut mentioned the Tee Higgins factoUr
Take a shot, Cincy. Don’t play for a 55-yard FG
Clanked off of Hill. Rikki is cackling.
Dusting off his bandana and/or wing-wang?
at the risk of heresy, this game might be even better than BUF/KC
you’re gonna have to show your work on this one
points to pill bottle
I laughed out loud for real
Same
24 with the INT on mahomies
Bengalssssss DEF is Rocking!
AS I WAS SAYING, PATRICK MAHOMES IS A CLOWNFRAUD

Clotheslined!
“How are things going, Eli Apple?”
-Karma
yellow potassium phalluses?
PERFECT defense
Apple really is the worst.
-Eve
FIONA APPLE HAD IT
It’s criminal he dropped it
If KC gets to the super bowl on the back of 2 OT coin tosses, the rule absolutely gets changed
You just know that somewhere out there some team actually tried to run ludicrous levels of analytics on the coin toss.
Shoot up #91 will ALL THE DEMORAL, Cincy
I’m going to the bathroom…to throw up.

nods in Karen Carpenter
“Oh, now tails doesn’t fail.” -Josh Allen
COIN FLIP DEVIL MAGIC
If we get the same ending as Buffalo-KC, does the NFL change the rule?
They should not, and will not.
Only if WKRP had done it.
They should just have a full 8 min OT period and if still tied after 1st to score wins.
And once again it comes to the toss.
Chiefs’ best postseason play is the overtime coin toss.
derping the night away
KC is scared of Burrow.
More football!
Hahaha OVERTIMEEeEEEE
That’s Rockingggg!!!
IS PATRICK MAHOMES A CLOWNFRAUD? MANY PEOPLE ARE ASKING THIS
OT. Didn’t want that.
they will absolutely pause RRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!! and the Tomsulas
I hope so!
I bet Cincy wins this toss, will Burrow then kill ’em ded?
I was wrong. TAILS NEVER FAILS EXCEPT LAST WEEK
I would like this sweet turn of events. THEN watch how fast OT rules change!
Oh Jesus
Hahahaha
oMG MaHomies dropped the ball!
LOL that’s not rocking
