...and that's why you can't get away having a franchise QB if you don't have adequate protection.

Kupp should win MVP, should have won MVP for the year.

Should have ran the ball

Or at very least lined up under center, to give the illusion they might run.

I would put #1 in the backfield some…oh well good game..defense still matters

[amcoolio]

Cincy was just too young and inexperienced on those last two drives. To go from losing for years right to the Superbowl is very impressive though

Wanted Bengals to win, but the emotion from Donald is what makes the NFL so worth it, even with the constant BS.

My money is on Burrow never sees another SB or Championship game ala Mark Sanchez or Dan Marino after their second season.

Well that was anti-climatic. I hate saying, "They'll be back" because we have no idea. Bengals missed their chance. Who knows if they will get another.

They’ve got a young (and cheap) core. Not sold on their coach at all or even Burrow but with him and Chase on rookie deals I don’t think they’re going anywhere soon.

Stupid. Let 20 seconds run off and throw a ball away and the run and forced to call a timeout.

Sometimes you don’t get WTF coaches are thinking. You don’t call a timeout to get ready for two downs to get a first down but you run which forces you to call a timeout.

I had just gotten done telling my son that the Bengals won't run the ball because of the timeout and down loss risk if they got stopped.

Lo and behold.

All those trades, all those free agents, all those high profile trades. It’s what the game is now. You’re gonna see more and more teams willing to part with a bit more after this.

Yep. This isn't college, where you take freshmen and groom them for four years and win it all. The NFL is forever WIN NOW. People crap on "win now" but it's the way. Meanwhile in Carolina: We're going to be ELITE in three seasons from now!

What's he supposed to do? He can't take the sack. Gotta just throw it toward someone and hope to get lucky.

He hesitated and choked in the pocket. Run pass run pass going off in his head. Should have been cool and decisive. Give his receiver a chance to make a play. I'm not talking about his desperation throw after he lost track of everything.

Yep. I felt certain after 2015 that we were gonna be in the mix for the foreseeable future. Yeah... that uh... that didn't exactly pan out.
