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.

It's one thing to bitch about the refs. Everyone does that from time to time. It's another to try and dismiss the dominance of one of the greatest dynasties this league has ever seen because they have a call or two go their way. TJ was obviously in his feels and, like you I think, feels the career of Burrow being wasted by an incompetent franchise that is getting smothered by the Chiefs. I understand. If there was a QB eating Mahomes lunch like he's doing to Burrow, Allen, Jackson, et al, I would be beside myself. But if I tweeted out some weak shit like that, yes it would be soft as fuck. [Reply]
I need to read this whole article later, but had to laugh at this:
“While the Bengals have been praised for aggressively pursuing former Kansas City quarterback Elvis Grbac -- they offered him millions more than the $30 million over five years that he ultimately took from Super Bowl champion Baltimore”
Laughing at Grbac aside, that QB contract being reported as aggressive is hilarious by today’s standards. [Reply]

The part that cracked me up was the "rise of Troy Blackburn" and how he was brought in, not being a member of the Brown bloodline.
It may not be out and out nepotism, but it was definitely nepotism by proxy. [Reply]

They should be jealous. Baltimore is an expansion team with 2 rings featuring Trent Dilfer & Joe Flacco at quarterback. Absurdly good luck for Baltimore fans compared to other franchises. [Reply]

Who loses doesn't move the needle for me. I just want to watch good football games. Two pretty good ones today. Should be two more good ones next week. [Reply]

And not a coincidence that none involved the Bengals [Reply]
