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.

Burrow has to do the same thing. At some point it will be strong enough for him to plant and push off on it and only he will know when that is and i'd rather him be in a game than on the practice field when that happens.
I dunno, Playoffs are different. At least you know the season is over very soon, whether it’s 1 game or 3 games. And then you can rest for a long time after the Playoffs are done. If Burrow’s injury drags out for months, that’s a long road of playing through the injury and risking more serious injury problems. 17 game season is a tough slog. [Reply]

I don't disagree with the playoff scenario. Staying in the race is just as important and what they have as backups isn't going to make the offense better. If he's comfortable playing, i'm fine with it. If they had a capable backup, i'm sure i'd feel different.
Generally speaking, he didn't just magically turn into Ryan Leaf. When he's able to plant and push, he'll be Burrow again. Maybe it will be during practice, maybe it will be during a game but it will be better that he's in game shape and has those reps in his pocket. [Reply]
How the fuck do you have Chase, Higgins and Boyd as your WRs and only get 3 points? I know Higgins went out with injury but still. I mean fucking Patrick walked the ball down the field by himself for 3 points. [Reply]

Their whole offense has been throwing up sideline passes and letting Higgins put jump the guy or Chase pushing off. [Reply]

Burrow is injured and the bengals think sacks and wishful thinking will heal his calf [Reply]
