He was a substitute ref in that Cincy game. It was originally going to be someone else.

At least it's not Sean Smith who seems to love throwing the flag for "talking" or saying mean things. I've seen him do it three times this year, including to Jones in the Indy game. That soft ass **** has no business being on the field with grown men.

Williams LT and Cappa RG listed week to week. Guy who subbed last week at LT Carman is a high pick and played well against the Bills, projected as guard. Other backup was demoted to start the season for an upgrade but started last year. Doesn't seem like a huge fall off.

Vegas line has flipped. We're now +1.

Not likely. I was listening to NFL Dr. David Chao earlier on NFL radio and he said Collins is obviously out, and the other 2 are doubtful. Said it’s possible they suit up in the case of an emergency but won’t play.

Cincy should be the favorites. They've won 3 in a row against KC. Their QB is not injured. They have a better roster around him too. Better defense, same guys that held a pretty good Buffalo offense to 10 points and they had that 99 yard fumble return TD on the Ravens. Same defense forced 5 turnovers in a row on Tom Brady. Same defense pulled off that crafty strip fumble on Kelce.

If only Patrick could go against the Chiefs defense instead of the Cincy defense. It's a team game.

Cincy has the better defense, maybe even by a wide margin based on some of the stuff I've seen them do this season. 5 straight turnovers on Tom Brady. Clutch strip fumble on Kelce when they really needed it. Clutch 99 yard fumble return on the Ravens when they really needed it. Holding Buffalo's explosive offense to only 10 points.

On a monumentally stupid ****ing play by Huntley. There's absolutely no chance you'd be giving the Chiefs D credit for that, in fact, you'd be pointing to it as an example of the Chiefs D getting lucky.

If I'm going to have to read you blatantly sucking the Bengals dick like this all week, I'm going to have to put you on ignore. It's only been 24 hours and you are already unbearable with this horseshit.

Also, the Bengals were down like 17-3 at halftime to Tom Brady while the Chiefs went in there and kicked their ass from the opening KO.

Citing the Ravens and Bucs games is a ****ing joke.

I was just researching the statistical differences. I know the Bengals defense is far superior to the Chiefs and that Patrick isn’t facing the Chiefs defense. I was just doing a pure statistics comparison.

KC had a similar play against the Chargers earlier this season. It was a great defensive play, but it was also lucky for the team. Mahomes played quite poorly in that game and was bailed out by the Herbert Pick 6. And yes it was lucky for Cincy to get that crazy play on the Ravens.

But it has been a pattern with that Cincy defense. Every time they need something big to happen, their defense pulls a rabbit out of the hat. They were down 17-0 to Tampa. Suddenly 5 straight turnovers by Tampa offense. They were down to KC in the 4th quarter with KC moving the ball. Suddenly the Bengals pulled off the strip fumble on Kelce. They were in deep trouble against the Patriots and pulled off another strip fumble when they really needed it. And of course the crazy play against the Ravens when they were in deep trouble once again. In the case of Buffalo, they just kicked their ass. Very impressive to hold Buffalo to 10 points.

I see a consistent pattern of a Cincy defense pulling off pretty incredible stuff, while the media is very lazy and gives all the credit to Joe Burrow.

There's absolutely nothing incredible about a dumb ****ing backup QB putting the ball out there to be slapped out of his hands when he was nowhere near the goaline dude.

It's not even comparable to an interception at the goaline. Not even remotely close.
