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.

If you watch the games, like i do, you would see a definite demarcation between the Titans and Cardinals game. The Cardinals game was the first time he moved and broke out of the pocket, up to that point. From there, he was himself until the injury.
4 games of being immoble and it showed clearly, then 5 1/2 games of consistently good. There was no 'a couple quarters here, a game or two there'. There was a clear line. [Reply]
Is that pain at the end of the video or boredom? He definitely doesn’t look happy to be back, that’s for sure. It’s hilarious that the team account sent that out. [Reply]

You know the social media crew had a clear directive to show Burrow looking strong. It’s kinda worrisome that this was the best shot they got. [Reply]
Sounds like there could be a stadium controversy brewing in Cincinnati? Will be interesting to see how that deal shakes out along with the stadium issues for Kansas City as well. [Reply]

My brother in Christ. The defense made them formidable all those years. It's falling apart now. I'm going to expect it to suck until it proves me wrong. [Reply]

He’s back in Cincinnati. Have you ever seen anyone happy to be back in Cincinnati? [Reply]
At first I scoffed at the idea that the Chargers are a "current" rival, but Reid vs. Harbaugh actually might be one of the more exciting matchups heading into 2024. All of our other rivals have dropped off. [Reply]
6 months since the surgery. I would not like this at all if I was a Bengals fan.
Bengals QB Joe Burrow on his recovery from wrist surgery, and where he's at heading into spring work: "The wrist has good days and bad days, just like the knee did ... We'll be smart about it."
