There's really no way the Bengals should lose this game Sunday. The Cardinals are completely decimated by injuries on both sides of the ball. The Bengals have all their key offensive stars available to run the ball up and down the field against a depleted Cards D. Backup QB Jacoby Brissett doesn't scare most defenses. And yet, somehow this game feels like it will be close. #nfl #whodey #bengals

This was so typical for the Bengals. As SOON as they get eliminated from the playoffs, they have their best game of the season. They looked like the '85 Bears against the Dolphins in the 3rd Quarter. It wasn't perfect, but this was as good as the Bengals have played as a team all year. Everyone was feeling good and having fun in the warmth and sun, including Joe Burrow. Chase Brown made his case for a big contract extension soon. Tee Higgins returned in style. Now we'll hear about building "momentum" for next season. Like I said, Typical Bengals. Let's break this game down, while we still have games to talk about. #nfl #bengals #whodey

Hello Darkness, my old friend... It's that time of year. The days are short, the nights are long, and Joe Burrow is very emo. Zac Taylor has extreme confidence in every single living organism in Paycor Stadium. But after a frigid shutout loss at home to the Ravens, it's time to warm up in South Florida. Tua is benched, Quinn Ewers makes his first NFL start against one of the worst defenses in history. What could go wrong? Bengals are 4.5 point road favorites, but I don't think they're accounting for the most important thing: Bengals are 0-3 this season with Spero Dedes and Adam Archuleta announcing.

What a miserable game. Bengals lose by 24 at home to the bitter rival Ravens. First shutout of Joe Burrow's NFL career. First Bengals shutout since 2017. Burrow had a pick-6 in the Red Zone. The Bengals defense gave up big play after big play. DJ Turner had balls bouncing off his facemask! It wasn't their day. And it wasn't your day if you attended this game in person, because the Bengals didn't bother clearing the snow off the seats in the stadium. This season ended with a whimper. It wasn't supposed to be like this!

Must Win Game. Defeat is not an option! Well, maybe defeat wouldn't be THAT bad, it would almost be a relief. It's a relief that Tee Higgins isn't playing after his 2nd concussion in 2 weeks. But Mike Gesicki, Ja'Marr Chase, and Chase Brown are more than capable of putting up points with a healthy Joe Burrow. The question is, can the Bengals defense repeat their Thanksgiving miracle performance and force 5 turnovers against the Ravens. It's going to be so cold. SO COLD. Tickets are selling for $15. That cold... #nfl #bengals #whodey

Another week of Joe Burrow magic ends in heartbreak as the Bengals discover new and amazing ways to lose football games. This time, in the steady snowfall of Orchard Park, NY to the Buffalo Bills. Everything was going so well, and then it all fell apart in a few minutes, late in the 4th quarter. Tee Higgins risks his long-term neurological health for "the team". Is it worth it? I'm not so sure, but we won't be seeing him, Trey Hendrickson, or Jermaine Burton on the field for a long time. Listen as we re-live this thrilling defeat! #nfl #bengals #whodey

Another tough opponent on the road, but we just saw the Bengals and Joe Burrow pull off the upset in Baltimore against the Ravens last week, so recency bias surely says the Bengals will keep their streak of wins (1) going. I'm not buying into this narrative about "4-8, just like last year." Doesn't anyone remember they missed the playoffs last year?! As Trent Reznor said, "I fear I'm the only one who thinks this way."

Bengals 32 - 14 Ravens. Thanksgiving Night was all Orange and Black. The Ravens and their Purple uniforms got squished like a bunch of grapes! Lamar Jackson played one of his worst games in years, committing 2 fumbles and 1 INT. Isiah Likely and Zay Flowers also lost fumbles to this suddenly tenacious Bengals Defense. Al Golden dialed up creative blitzes that left Lamar looking rattled and confused. Strange things happen on Thursday Night in the division. All the headlines will be about the return of Joe Burrow, but this was a team win. McPherson made 6 for 6 FGs. Shoutout to Dalton Risner, who has added a solid veteran presence on the interior OL. It's only 1 win, but it was a good 1. #whodey #nfl #bengals
