notthatbluestuff Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Super Bowl contenders and division rivals with elite QBs square off, both coming off tough losses. The feel of a playoff game in November. if Cincy loses, their playoff hopes are in serious jeopardy given the gauntlet that is the AFC North.

SmittyBacall Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 My brain thinks this will be another long night with the defense giving up chunk play after chunk play, but my heart thinks we find away to grit this out for a W. We are desperate. I also have a feeling it will be more high scoring than people realize. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VigilantZombie Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 (edited) Well, if Marlon Humphrey doesn't play, this could be a bit more challenging defensively for Baltimore. Having said that, conventional wisdom would probably suggest Baltimore wins this game, especially at home, having said that, Cincinnati NEEDS to win this game or their playoff hopes are all but gone imo. So if it comes to motivational factors, you'd think Cincy has the upper hand here. It's gonna be a dog fight, while Tee Higgins is a loss, Boyd is very good, I'd expect a relatively low scoring but extremely physical game. I'm gonna take Cincy by 3, 20-17, and based on my comments and the comments above, I probably just proved Smittys point haha.

MWil23 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Both teams really banged up and coming off of really disappointing losses, in a divisional short week matchup. The game is in Baltimore but Cincinnati feels like it’s now or never for them this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've actually been solid without him on defense, so I'm not that concerned about him being out. Even though he hasn't played great, I'm worried about missing Ronnie Stanley more because Morgan Moses has also been hurt so we're almost down to playing 2 backup OT's and that kinda really sucked against Cleveland. Once again though, this game is all about the 2nd half Baltimore team and how well the offense is able to play. Our offense disappears in so many 2nd half games and then Lamar turns it over multiple times. If that happens, 100% chance we lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETSGOBROWNIES Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I want Cincy to win because they’re not the ravens. I also want Baltimore to win because I live in Cincinnati surrounded by these goofs. tough situation im rooting for a tie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubbard out and Trey messed up his knee last week. they say he is going to give it a try, but we will see. I am not super optimistic, but I know the Bengals can beat anyone if they play well... so lets go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
