Final. A game we probably did not deserve to win. It would have been nice. The game Thursday is now probably a must win with the records of teams in the AFC.

Inexcusable. 

We definitely deserved to lose that game.

Now we really need the Browns to beat the Ravens. They should have tied it but missed an extra point.

That was not a trap game. Bengals were ready. They got outplayed. Houston is good. They just took the Bengals playoff spot head to head.

Didn’t deserve then ended up absolutely giving it away

Throw Zac into give away too, QB draw on 2nd and goal from the 14!!!???!!!??

Some thought I was out there with saying this game scared me, I think it’s seen why now. It wasn’t just about Stroud, which was my main concern. The biggest surprise was how dominated we were at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. With the way the rest of the AFC North is playing, today’s game was a must win in my opinion too. This game wasn’t as close as what the final score was either.

Houston will win their division.

Will this finally force the hands of management and invest in some actually good reliable offensive linemen? Joe Borrow has to dance way too often every game since his rookie year. And Maybe revisit playing the starters more than one half in the pre-season. This having to catch up after slow starts thing is insanely dumb.

Rule 2 reads in part:

2. No disparaging, taunting, or boastful comments--especially between opponents trying to intimidate each other. This includes, name calling or personal attacks toward any member, username, team, or school. Additionally this includes a pattern of posts that inflames or incites other posters (i.e. trolling or gaslighting).

Jacksonville will win that division, they won’t let Houston run overtop of them the way we did today, couldn’t run the ball all year, very disappointing   Houston hasn’t been able to pressure the QB all year either, 4 sacks today and a bunch more pressures, what a stinky day!

I was wondering about the first down call too. If they get TD and XP they are up 4 correct?? I would have thought three pass plays, but I guess they thought they couldn't block the pressure.

At least Cleveland beat Baltimore, which makes Thursday’s game even bigger.

They might, Jacksonville can be Jekyll and Hyde. If Houston continues on as they have, it realistically could happen. I believe Houston beat the Jaguars in Jacksonville already too.

You’re correct, they did, they also lost to the 1-8 Panthers and scored 12 pts

Sadly agree.

 

With that said, Burrow has a chip on his shoulder until he gets a Superbowl.

 

Boyd still kills me, such a great play followed by such a great failure.
