So, are the Bengals just calling too many slow developing routes, or does the line suck, or botyh?

this is a close game but I don't feel like it's a particularly good or memorable game.

The winner of this is just a lamb to the slaughter of next week I imagine.

The refusal of the Bengals to adjust playcalls in likely blitz situations is something else. They have run a couple of screens that worked out, too. Pound the Titans with those...

I think Burrow is good enough to win a shootout and Tennessee overall is good enough to win if Tanny plays well, so I'd give winner of this a puncher's chance next weekend. Obviously either would have to play much better than they did today.

It’s memorable. But agree on point 2
I don't necessarily agree. Give Henry this week to shake off the rust and he could beast next week - especially against either of those run defenses. Don't underestimate Vrabel's crew. They'll be tough next week IF they get there.

I think they'd have a significant shot at beating Buffalo, but they don't have the pass defense and the offense to keep up with a Chiefs team that seems to have found their groove.

Pretty much the only way you could lose this game before overtime if you're Tennessee. Incredible

Wow. I was just going to say Ten needs to start moving, but now they're lucky they went so slowly.
