Because of their defense far more than their offense. That defense has given KC fits, but they aren't the same that they were a couple of years ago.

Maybe. That's certainly one way to look at it. Listen, this is how it is as far as I'm concerned. They have top-tier coaching. They have a top tier offense, particularly at WR. And they have had solid-to-very good defense. And they have a top-tier QB. Top-5 or -10 or wherever you want to rank him, he's one of the best QBs in the league. We can debate whether he's elite, and I honestly don't know if he is. But he's proven to be a pretty good one, easily in the top-10. Anyway, it's pretty much impossible to have really good players and really good coaches and still be a bad team. If anyone can come up with more than one example of such I'd love to see it. And to prove it, they actually beat KC three times in a row, once in the AFCCG, while never having a good OL. So, by any reasonable standard CIN is a top-tier football team, period. Now, you want to argue that they haven't ever played up to their roster's talent, I would agree with that. They haven't been dominant offensively in the playoffs. Burrow in particular hasn't been special in January by any means. But the talent is undeniably there. |

Biggest issue with Burrow has always been the sacks.
The OL is garbage and he takes way too many anyway. Plenty of blame to go around. Taking that insane number of hits isn’t sustainable to win consistently. Burrow has a high likelihood of significant injury every single year. |

So I take it that Burrow is on the podcast tomorrow. It should be a good one then.

Chiefs with Mahomes have beaten the number 1 defenses in the league more than once. There is no team built to stop us.

People need to stop bowing down to Burrow. Yes, he's 3-1 against the Chiefs but ALL 3 of those games were decided by a FG (one was in OT and the game turned on a pass Hill should have caught). Burrow could just as easily be 0-4 against Mahomes or 4-0.

I have no fear of a team with a QB who has zero TD passes in the fourth quarter of the playoffs in his entire career.

Built to beat us, but never actually win a championship.

Lou Anarumo is the only one who gives the Bengals a chance against the Chiefs. Outside of him, they're "built" to watch the Chiefs in the Super Bowl.

Not sure I understand anyone here being "scared" of any QB. The only time I would use the word fear and QB in the same sentence would have to do with ours and injury. IDGAF about any of those other, non championship winning QBs. Yes, we will lose games to other teams from time to time. But "scared"? Of Joe Burrow? Of Josh Allen? Of.....? Nah.
