*** Thursday Night Disappointment - Bengals @ Browns ***
Bengals (0-1)
@ Browns (0-1) battle of the winless teams |
I'm just glad football is back
|
You have to root for the Bengals here.
|
I voted Bengals - but frankly, I could see a 3-3 tie....... :shrug:
|
Would love to see the Bengals run them out of the stadium, just to add more fuel to the dumpster fire that is Mayfield's pro career.
|
It’s early enough in the season that being able to watch any football is good and I am interested to see Burrow.

Burrow vs. Baker is interesting no matter how you view them
Bengals are pretty beat up along the DL and that’s bad news against Chubb and Hunt. Browns win... |
I am an undecided voter. Please make the case for why I should root for either team over the other. Right now, I've got...
Pro-Browns Dorsey used to work there, and he got us Mahomes. They're relatively harmless. Baker Mayfield is refreshingly frank. Jarvis Landry has a good work ethic. Pro-Bengals That Joe Burrow fellow seems like a nice kid with a Horatio Alger background. They're relatively harmless. I've followed that Sam Hubbard DE for a while since I was kind of interested in drafting him. I really like the stripes. Anti-Browns Beckham is kind of a jerk. Mayfield is kind of a jerk. Myles Garrett is kind of a jerk. The Browns beat the Chiefs once many years ago in a meaningless game, but it disappointed me. Anti-Bengals I still have a Vontaze Burfict and Pacman Jones hangover. Their offensive line has names that are either oddly trendy, uncool, or copies of NBA legends. |
Anti-Browns
Mayfield is in too many commercials and that is very annoying Pro Bengals CEH won a national championship with Burrow and CEH is now in KC |
It will be hard to tell that this game will be played during COVID as I think both of these teams draws a sparse crowd.
|
The Bengals are easy to forget about. Theres nothing interesting about them. Burrow seems alright, hope he doesnt bust. The Browns are a team you should feel sorry for cause they've sucked for so long but are somehow easy to root against. Last years off season champs. This years sneaky playoff pick. LMAO
I guess for an outcome, Id like to see the Bengals drub them like the Ravens did. |

Please destroy them to the best of your ability Bengals.
13-3. |
Burrow had a nice drive to end the game against the Chargers. Got boned by an Offensive PI call on AJ Green.

I just found out yesterday actually that pass interference is not challengeable this season. Last year was only a 1 year experiment apparently. |
Burrow already > Mayfield.
Bengals win 17-6 and Mayfield has two turnovers, marking the official “beginning of the end of his career”. |
Go Bengals I guess? :shrug:
|
In the game clips that I saw from last week, Baker doesn't look comfortable at all. But I figured it would take a few weeks for him and the rest of the offense to get used to Stefanski's system. Probably 6-8 weeks.
But the real problem is that Baker isn't apparently running the offense as scripted. If you go back and look at last week's game, some of the plays were executed pretty well and Baker had guys wide open, but didn't throw to them for some reason. Tnight's game will be interesting to see if he takes what the defense gives him. |

Think about some bets...
Chubb over/under of 75.5 rush yards feels like stealing if he doesn’t get hurt early. |

My theory, which is based mostly on just my gut, is that he had a little of the 'first game of the season' jitters, combined with not being entirely comfortable with the new scheme, the third one he's had to learn in three years, plus just pressing too hard. He wants to have a big performance; to hit a homerun, on every play. He needs to just take what the defense gives him and be patient. Sooner or later the defense will give him a chance to make a big downfield play. I think he's trying to manufacture something that isn't there. |
From what I see, Baker isn’t playing within his skill set.
He’s trying to make magic like the Mahomes/Murray/Jackson types, but lacks the athleticism to do so. He just needs to trust his scheme and reads. The talent is around him to be very successful. |
Baket is a douchebag but Browns win tonight.
|
I am weirdly invested in a Browns-Bengals game this year. I am one of the few people who actually root for Baker (actually had a class at Tech with him) so hope he wins but I also can see them being bodied by Burrow.

Burrow unloads.
328 yards passing 3 TDs. 1 int |

Of course, these things are very fragile. If he has another couple of terrible games, this thing could really avalanche out of control and he won't be able to recover from it. |
The browns are a hot mess...
|
3-3 or 50-50, what's it gonna be?

Bengals have the better QB by far but it’s his first “road” game and this is exactly the type of game the Browns win and people act like they’ve figured it out before they promptly lose 6 in a row.

Cats over dawgs.
Burrow actually makes me interested to watch this one. |

So if I were you guys, I’d bet Bengals 38-20 |

But on paper, and if I had to bet the game, I'd bet the under every time. |
If baker gets run by burrow colin cowherd is gonna go ham sammich
|
The only reason I am watching is there is nothing else on.
Doing school work. |
[hankwilliamsjr] Are you ready for some marginal football? [/williamsjr]
|
So i just saw somewhere had the Browns -6. That seems highly optimistic. I might be tempted to take CIN if I had to wager on this one.
|
The Bengals and Browns are intermixed in their line of unity. That's more unity than I expected.
|
lots of ugly orange and brown
|
This is really an off year for national anthem singing.
|
Man, I lost the ability to stand partway through that anthem. That was rough.

Saw that dude with blonde hair and black beard arms linked with Burrow, and thought OBJ caught Michael Jackson's vitalago.

Can wide receivers open doors with those gloves, or will they stick to the doorknob? |

Horrible call by the ref
|
Bad call, hype killing challenge, football is back!
|
Nice effort, TB.
|
Burrow looks like a seasoned vet out there
|
taki taki????
|
mizzouche in turd colors. Fitting.
|
Nice work Joe!
|
|
I used to kinda like the Browns because they were love able losers. Now, I find them just pathetic. Hope they go 1-15 forever.
|
Joe Burrow will be great.
Tee Higgins on my dynasty team. |
Today is the 100th anniversary of the NFL? Why wasn't this all over the news today? That's a really big story.

They even said 25 of them were the Mahomes Years |
Mayfield has thrown some nice passes so far.
|
Wow, nice run by Chubb.
|
This almost resembles NFL football.

jeesh burrow. bad sack dood
|
Uh, Joe ...
|
Browns are full of a lot of high draft picks. They should be pretty good. Looks like the new kid on the block is realizing that players at this level are just bigger and faster than most of the college players.
That said, Go Bungles! |
Did that ball graze Burrow on the rear end on its way back?
|
that time out was NOT granted.
|
Baker Mayfield ya'll.
|
Well looks like the brown sounds found a little rhythm.
|
I know they're playing the Bengals, but the Browns are looking better than I expected.
|
Seems like Baker needs a running start to throw it down the field.
