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.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
