2. Cincinnati blowed a chance by letting all the gangsters leave and not paying chase

3. It’s funny how none of these guys ever admit when they got it wrong. This is one of the many examples of a team letting an all-pro, top flight RB leave the building because they don’t want to pay the man what they should. People are talking about how Zac Taylor is washed. Joe burrow is ok, Jamar is ok, Tee is ok. They’re a little bruised but who isn’t at this point of the season. Tom Brady isn’t engineering comebacks like Joe did last night, without Josh McDaniels or Bruce Arians (see when BA left how Brady regressed). I got news for you. Same as Joe burrow. These guys from shanahan’s coaching tree are special. The bengals’ problem is they miss Joe Mixon. And the defense has regressed because their ball control is trash because THEY MISS JOE MIXON.

4. If we’re going to use Herbie in the Thumbnail, can we it least talk about the chargers for 30 seconds?

5. I bet many of the same people who have said how great burrow has been and how terrible the defense have been are the ones who trash Rodgers for his shortcomings in the playoffs in his packers days.

6. Bengals will be fine without Higgins as long as they address the def to compensate. Clearly, they need to do that anyway.

7. All the Lamar fans in these comments

8. Brou surprisingly shows lack of knowledge on the Bengals. 😮

9. Nick Wright is correct

10. Burrow says his entire career is his window.. as burrow chase and Higgins were all on rookie contracts. Ha!

11. Chargers get a big when on prime time and the whole segment was about Burrow and the Bengals 🙄

12. With 2 minutes left on the game both herbert and burrow had one drive each. Herbert got the ball with 45 seconds left. Herbert threw for 60 yards on 2 throws to put the game away, with the last throw having a hand in his face 👑⚡️

13. “You don’t think that’s a Zac Taylor stat and not a Joe burrow stat?” This dude Nick is something else

14. Burrow has two WR1s and still can't win a game. Good stats but not a clutch QB. He had multiple chances to beat the mid Chargers. Overrated

15. Burrow is in the EXACT same situation as Lamar this year. The difference, Burrow has not been able to make the difference in the same way Lamar has. But no one wants to have that conversation. He will forever get excuses.

16. Burrow does just enough to barely lose 😂

17. Nick never wants to talk about Herbert or the chargers unless they’re struggling. Anytime we win, he’s SILENT

18. Receivers are a dime a dozen each drafts and at the trade deadline. So what if they lose Tee, he’s not worth 25+ mil anyway

19. So we just don’t talk about the Chargers in media? I’ve seen no one cover how the chargers are 7-3, in the hunt, Herbert is playing amazing and we’re still talking about the Jets and spent 20 minutes in KC vs Buffalo.

20. @Brou gets me weak everytime he says "Joe Burrough"😂😅

21. Herbert in thumbnail and not a single word mentioned bout the chargers

22. All talk about the Bengals but no credit or discussion about Herbert? Tragic.

23. No charger talk ok ⚡️🤫⚡️

24. I think one more year of Rodgers makes sense, assuming he’s in. You could easily draft a top QB and let him sit for a year. Turned out great for Jordan Love!

25. Regarding the Jets "building something in New York," you can't build a luxury hotel on a swamp.

26. Once again chargers win but they talk about the other team

27. Imagine if everyone gave Herbert these excuses that Burrow gets

28. Welcome to my Seahawks. We beat miners but they're kinda same teams

29. Wildes just be yappin.
    “Ravens aren’t a serious team”
    Shut up

30. Poor Bengals lol 1982.

31. I don't know why Nick Wright continues to parrot the “Tee Higgins” point when he frequently gets injured, and receivers can't be found in the draft or through Free Agency or trades, these mechanisms exist in the league, stop pretending that they don’t
