So the Bengals have looked fuging bad this year. They had a good offensive performance against a redskins team that probably doesn’t have a great defense. Jayden Daniels looks amazing sure; but Jayden daniels didn’t have anything to do with a 33 year old tight end waddling around wide open, and kingsbury’s offense is a known quantity at this point. beating it is all about execution; it’s not complex. 

the bengals lost Trent brown against the reds kind as well. 

Obviously burrow is burrow and chase is chase. Higgins is also clearly a stud. 

Raiders probably have a better d line than Cincinnati. Without thielen the panthers are going to have to run the ball. 

I think the whole game comes down to how horn does on chase, and how the panthers run block. If they win both those matchups I think they win. 

the other thing about the raiders game is it was such a blowout and the raiders were so obviously outmatched I’m not sure how much good tape there is on the Dalton panthers. They were doing whatever they wanted.

They struggle to run the ball and they don’t generate a consistent pass rush.

Those 2 things bode well for us.  
 

They can score from anywhere on the field.

No lead is safe.

We’ll need to control the clock, and win the turnover battle.

Itll be a tough one to win against an angry team.  It can be done, we’ll just have to see which Panthers team shows up.

Pass rush comes alive. 4 sacks, 2 PD, 1 strip sack and fumble recovery. 

1 int for the secondary. 

Andy throws 3 more TDs, 1 pick, 340 yards. 1 of the TDs goes to Trimble on a seam route. Running game goes 185 yards total. Chuba goes over 100 and has a 17 yard run that goes for 6. 

Final score 31-17 us. We win the TOP battle by 7 minutes.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
