I've been beside myself watching this game because I've been telling myself all week that the Bengals are playing with house money this weekend, but they were up by 10 and they've squandered it and let them tie it up and I'm effin' p!ssed. But that turnover on downs was a huge momentum changer.

Tough break there. I think that is one of those that wouldn't have been overturned either way.

Bs. The call was clearly on the ground. Everyone saw it. He caught a ball that was on the ground. THAT IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE AND THE REFS BLATANTLY FD THE BENGALS.

Jackpot Joey. LFG!!!!

I really like Chase but I can't remember the last time a team won a SB because they had a great WR. Brady won 6 with a bunch of mediocre wideouts.

That has nothing to do with nothing. Bengals drafted the best player in the draft. Period. I’d much rather address OL with FA. Bengals have murdered free agency lately.

And they’re driving on the Titans 4’ left. Tennessee might wanna draft a little better….

nvm. Ballgame. Again.

Cincy has a bright future - stud QB on a rookie contract is the best asset in pro sports. They'll clean stuff up on the OL in the offseason and be better next year.

Wow the Bengals O line is historically bad. I still wish Burrow would at least attempt to throw it away or scramble, but that’s not going to happen. Sack city…

Bengals deserved that. Giving up 9 sacks, meanwhile getting 3 INTs, controlling Henry……..good for them.

Meanwhile, Ryan Tannehill can GTFO.

@gobigbluebell I only said sigh of relief because a home game is much more desirable than going on the road.

I think Cincy matches up better with KC than Buffalo - and if they can win next week, I think they match up fine with any of the remaining NFC teams. House money, go get another one.

Big Z with the sack. Getting him and Jaire Alexander back for the playoffs could really boost the Pack's D. The offense isn't a problem. If they can play good enough D they are the favorites.

Well, they’re 6-0 against the afc playoff field so If the magic carpet ride ends it’ll be because they couldn’t go 7-0. They’ve already beaten the chiefs and lost to the packers in OT- folks that don’t think they are legit are fooling themselves

I think they're about the 7 loss team they showed in the regular season. I don't think they go into either KC or Buffalo and win, but if they do, they match up well with any of the NFC teams. It's been a great season for Cincy.

I've got lots of friends who are Bengals fans and you'd think they just won 9 consecutive Super Bowls the way they are acting. Glad they finally broke a 3 decade curse but you beat two objectively mediocre teams, guys. Calm down.

Haha, if you endured 31 years of absolute failure, you’d understand the excitement. This isn’t UK basketball, it’s the Bungles. For once they didn’t Bungle it…

When you look at the big picture, all the old Bengal Karma was there. We were fully setup to lose this game in the most crushing fashion possible, but the youngsters that are unfamiliar with our tragic tale would not let it be. Despite the worst coach in the NFL, despite all the curses chanting their horrible curses, our hapless Bengals stumbled their way to an incredible victory even in the face of Joe nearly getting himself killed in doing it.

Offensive linemen... who needs them as long as you can sell tickets and prosper on the grace of mistakes by strangers. WHO DEY!!!!

The Bungles were gifted playing a game against a terrible 1 seed. They've eeked out 2 playoff wins against mediocre teams. Oakland was awful and Tennessee was ok on their best day. KC or Buffalo win by double digits next week.

I fully expect us to get blown out but as long as Joe doesn't get hurt I am stupendously happy about this season and looking forward to the next.

I’m not saying you’re wrong about the chance either team blows us out, but you do realize we just beat one of them a few weeks ago right? There are no juggernauts in the AFC. The Bengals may not win, but they aren’t pushovers either.

I just think a regular season game at home vs the Chiefs is dissimilar to a road playoff game vs either KC or Buffalo. I might feel differently if Cincy hadn't sneaked by both Oakland and Tennessee by the skin of their teeth - Buffalo and KC are way, way better than either the Raiders or Titans.
