      Team just needs to listen to coach and take every week one game at a time. If they keep using the pass to set up the run, Texans are going to be very tough to stop for anyone. Browns are the last team left that's a real toss up, everyone else comes down to focus and execution. Texans could be playing at home for the playoffs.

      I've been a Ravens fan since 2006. But the reason Lamar doesn't get a lot of leeway from the media is because his stats don't pop on paper. I really like Lamar a bunch. But there's a difference between Burrow throwing over 350 yards 2 TDs & 2INTs then having an MVP candidate receiver driving down the field to beat him and Lamar throwing 223 1TD and 2 INTs and letting the browns comeback when they were down by like 20 points.

    As a Bengals fan Nick is absolutely right about us. Burrow is the best thing to happen to this franchise in my lifetime; and I never thought I'd see my Bengals in back-to-back AFC Championships never mind a Superbowl (too young to remember their losses to the 49ers). But that game against the Texans - we had to have it. And yes, Tyler Boyd's drop was potentially game losing and everyone will focus on that, but what REALLY lost the game was two factors. 1: the defence's inability to stop the Texans. Time and again they were in 3rd and long and converted. Just not good enough. 2: the offense. Yes, we scored 27 points, but after that first TD drive we had 5 punts and 32 yards. This has happened far too often recently with the O just going to sleep for 2 and a half quarters in a game and letting other teams either take control or hang around. People will think I'm being harsh, but Burrow is THAT GOOD, and the expectations have been raised accordingly.

    You can’t blame Boyd for the loss! An endzone INT and endzone drop cancel each other out. Honestly the INT is worse because instead of 3 you get 0. Then he had another one AND got 2 fumbles from Stroud plus a INT. The offense STALLED and Chase played well so you can’t play that card. You were missing Higgins but still had a TOP 5 WR out there! The margin for error was already zero then you drop this game. Now your AFC record is even worse and the only tie breaker you hold is BUF. It will take PURE LUCK at this point to make the playoffs. Sucks because the Bengals are one of the best watches in the league. Next year Higgins is likely gone and that defense will start to lose another piece or two like Hubbard, Hendrickson, or Reader. Going to be an interesting off season….

And if they can win that division or sneak into the playoffs, he's got a real shot.
