Oh man. Day trip to Cincy. Gonna stop at the famous Shit Chili restaurant and then off to sit in one of the shittiest stadiums in America to watch the Chiefs win and smell the STDs and BO.

1-10 through the first 2 weeks over his first 5+ seasons in the league? That's just unacceptable. At a point, do SOMETHING different. You can't be spotting the rest of the AFC at least 1 and often 2 wins every single season. Whatever you're doing in camp - stop. Do something else. These slow starts are killing them. It puts so much pressure on them to keep the pedal down and potentially show plays/tendencies that they'd rather keep back down the stretch. |

Have we reached a point where beating Mahomes in the playoffs once gets you a lifetime pass? You stay in the 'top 5 QBs' lists because that thing you did that one time? One season with MVP votes. One. Got badly outplayed by Jake Browning last season. Can't stay healthy. May simply not be physically sound (now or perhaps ever). And has NEVER performed without 2 premier pass-catchers in this lineup. Why do we keep acting like it's verboten to question whether or not Joe Burrow is a truly premier QB and not just another average guy who's a product of his weapons? It's silly. DJ Reader has a better track record relative to his position group. Chase certainly does. Higgins does. Shit, Mixon might have. It's really ridiculous that people keep trying to keep him in the same tier as Mahomes. He's not on that level. |

Jake Browning looked every bit as good as Burrow last year. Their playmakers were just ridiculous and makes Burrow look better. I don’t think Burrow is bad by any means, but he is propped up and this year could be different.

Higgins has a hamstring injury, Burrow is clearly not back to form yet, and Chase missed a lot of time holding out. Combine all that with the fact that their defense is now terrible, and they lost Mixon and Boyd in the offseason as well, and you have very little reason to think they can get this this turned around in one ****ing week.

Always felt like it was a long-shot to get him back against Cincy. And we shouldn't really need him against Atlanta.
I've had the Chargers game circled for a bit now. |
