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.

chase and hendrickson should have good games
Not real thrilled about the play in the trenches on both sides of the ball. Defense isn't getting much pressure other than Hendrickson and when that happens, guys stand back there for 4 seconds until a WR finds a hole in the zone. This is something Lamar has always done. Drop back, wait a few seconds for someone to find a seam then let it go. The times the Bengals have been successful against him is when they clog the middle, have the ends rush wide and then peel back to close the lanes that he usually runs through. They confused the hell out of him in '21 when they did this.
On offense, they're going to HAVE to find a way to give Burrow time. They have more than enough on offense, providing they can passpro, regardless of how the running game is doing.
Right at this moment i'm not worried but i'm not real confident either. Kind of wait and see. If they can't find a way to get the Ravens off the field, they're going to need to score 28 to win this game. [Reply]
