Burrow: Bengals built to beat the Chiefs

[493rd]

Up to this point Burrow has been unbelievably fortunate playing with Chase, Higgins, and Boyd. He gets Higgins for one more year paired with Chase so he better win it all this year. Let’s see how good Joe is when his only threat is taken out of most games going forward. Dude couldn’t beat the Rams a few years back when it mattered most. But he sure likes to run his mouth.

Not only that he's coming back from an ACL. Many NFL players have not fared as well in the year following their surgery. I'm not saying Burrow will be bad next year, but he may not return to normal until 2025.

Yeah at this point the only thing they're "built" for is to cling on as long as possible.
Ask the Bills how that worked out?

They’re a little better built long term. Unlike buffalo I think they’re building for the long haul and being smart about where to throw their money, where buffalo spent a few years out of desperation.

It goes without saying that they didn’t finish the job at their peak and it’s only gonna go downhill from here. But I think they’re very well positioned to be a competitive team. Good - I love the rivalry especially since we’re the better team and we’ve already gone through reinventing ourselves where cincy is just getting started.

He did tear and have surgery on a ligament, but it's in his wrist, not his knee.

This is the homeless looking guy who was on stage with the Kelce’s in Cincy?
