I just feel like everyone is going to spend all week talking about Mahomes' ankle or Burrow being a Demigod or Chase against this young secondary or Lou Anarumo being a psychopath...and then in the end it's just going to Samaje Perine bludgeoning Bolton and Gay to death.

Correct, but with him not being healthy the chances of his injury getting worse or having another worse injury increases. [Reply]

Sure, but i would expect him to fight to stay in the lineup, with that being deep in the back of his mind. [Reply]

I'm not worried until they're mathmatically eliminated from the playoffs.
It's not getting gradually better lol did you watch today? [Reply]
rfaulk is a gold jacket HOFer when it comes to fans of other teams on CP. The Bengals are imploding and he keeps showing up. Dude provides pictures of his pergola without photo credits from Belize on them.

I mean, they've pretty much folded during the first four games. [Reply]

I’m not sure you should worry about anything other than Burrow’s health. The team might even be better off letting Burrow rest/heal and avoid more serious injury.
Tank with the backup QB and get a high draft pick. Worked out pretty great last time when Cincy drafted Chase after the team fell apart on the field without Burrow. Take one step back this year, but a couple steps forward next year with some Top 5 quality talent added in The Draft. [Reply]

Problem is that the guy who makes that decision would have to worry about his job. [Reply]
