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.

The Bengals have never won a SB so perhaps the wolf has just devoured you repeatedly and you’re confusing the afterlife with a real shot at winning a championship. [Reply]
Tough loss for them to swallow but you are not out until you are really out. Bengals are dangerous and its really unlikely they miss the playoffs. Even losing at Balt is not a death sentence. [Reply]

5-5
5 conference losses
3 division. Losses
2 1/2 games. Behind with 2 losses to the ravens
Only way they can make it would be a wild card.
Texans own the tie breaker
Look at the division they’re in
Already lost to the browns
They're a great team when they're healthy and like they could win any of the games remaining on their schedule but because they started so slow and the afc North is so good they're more likely to miss playoffs than make it
Which is all to say lmao
Also they have a big bill coming due next season so this season is when they need to win a SB [Reply]

If they beat the Ravens Thursday, they gain on 2 North teams since Pitt plays at Cleveland this coming week. As much as it pains me, i'll be hoping for a Steelers win since the Bengals still play them twice but only play the Browns one more time. [Reply]

I didn't like him predraft due to his cocky attitude but the more I watch him in interviews, he seems humble and respectful.
Like Herbert, he has exceeded expectations of a QB coming out of college who most people didn't expect would be this good. [Reply]

I'm just curious. How would you rank your hatred of AFC North teams? #1 would be the most hated and #3 would be the least hated out of the Browns, Ravens, & Steelers. And how does your AFC North ranking list compare to the general feeling for Cincy fans? [Reply]

For me and i believe most Bengals fans...Steelers are #1 with a bullet. I used to have a really unhealthy hatred for them not too terribly long ago. I don't take it that seriously anymore but they're still #1 on the beat their ass and laugh when they're down list.
I don't really hate the Ravens or Browns. Bengals have a good record vs the Ravens overall and the Bengals owned the Browns up till that goober Baker Mayfield came on board a couple years ago. [Reply]

How can you not hate the Ravens? They had a lot of success at your expense and that slobbering murdering mongoloid Ray Lewis was absolutely insufferable.
One of my favorite pre-Mahomes moments of my fandom is when he was mic’d up against that savage Roaf led OL whining about being double teamed and watching Richardson just crumple his bitch ass like a beer can. Fuck the Ravens. Fuck the Ravens from my seat, I can’t imagine not hating them from yours. [Reply]

I’m surprised you don’t care much about the Browns. I guess it’s because Cleveland has been shitty for so long. Makes it hard to build a lot of hatred, even though you’re in the same state and that type of proximity can fuel very strong rivalries. Steeler hatred makes sense. They’re one of the teams with big success through the decades and it seems like they get pretty favorable treatment from the refs. [Reply]
