This is a tough opening for the 2019 Bengals on the road at Seattle. This one of the toughest places in the league to play. Go Bengals!!

I'm intrigued to see what the Bengals offensive play calling is like. By all words, Taylor played it really close to the vest during the preseason. Will be interesting to see what new wrinkles are unveiled.

Got a feeling this will be a low scoring affair, with the ball on the ground a majority of the time.

Our secondary should be able to defend this game, I think it'll come down to containing Russel Wilson's legs. If we can score 22 points, I say we win.

I’m more optimistic than most, if they stay healthy (which obviously is a BIG if), they’re going to win some games, I’m going anywhere from 8-10 with good health!!!

Bengals have a nice first drive stall at around the 50. I think Ross made a nice catch that the officials initially ruled incomplete, however I guess they didn't feel it was inconclusive to overturn it.

Good defense by the Bengals on first series.

Bengals with a nice drive to get three points. Bengals 3-0.

When will John Ross become a football player? He is softer than a baby bunny.

Three and out led by a sack by Dunlap and of course Erickson fumbles the return. Also had two block in the back penalities.

Bengals defensive line has started out great this game.

Bengals are bringing the heat on Russell. Another punt coming.

When will John Ross become a football player? He is softer than a baby bunny.

 

Huh? What has he done this game that led to this comment? Did they say he is hurt again and I missed it?

First pass he finally catches (after a drop), he sees a player 5-7 yards downfield in front of him and pulls up to avoid contact almost costing the Bengals a first down. Fortunately, he just barely got the first down after falling down because he didn't want contact. You have to know where you are on the field and not be afraid of contact. If he just keeps running, easy first down. At this point in his career, John Ross is right up there on the list of biggest first round flops for the Bengals. There is zero toughness in him.

Seahawks finally gets it going and score a touchdown. Seattle up 7-3.
