I was wrong.

To quote the late Jimmy Swaggart...."You have Sinned"
 
Flacco with a gimpy shoulder means less Jump Ball Joe specials. Or so we’d think…

With Burrow returning next week Flacco will do whatever he needs to be effective, which probably means taking the needle. I don't expect this supposed shoulder problem to hold him back.

I do expect the Pats to win but it might not be the walkover so many anticipate.
 


Would be good if we end this game by halftime: to get some more extra rest... with a Monday Night Game and Bye Week to follow. This Defense even without Uncle Milt should get to Flacco: wouldn't shock me if he threw three picks.

Bengals won't be able to keep Tune: Maye should finally hit the 300yds Mark passing for the first time tomorrow.
 
The amount of games Burrow has missed so far in his young career is crazy. Feels like he’s on track for an Andrew Luck early retirement. He was drafted 6 years ago and he’s already missed 25 games. Missing damn near a quarter of every season. And he’s not going to become less injury prone or recover faster as he ages into his 30s next year.

Man it seems like 2020 wasn't that long ago I thought he was alot younger.
 
Keeping him back and saving him for the Thursday night game makes sense.
If Maye was in the same predicament, I would want him to play Sunday regardless of another game Thursday. Win every game possible.

If the Bengals don't win tomorrow that's 8 losses just like last season. Alright, Burrow you're in kid.

Happens to me all the time. We go through a lot of ice because my brain keeps thinking my body is a lot younger

 
Bengals will still score. Flacco won't miss those open receivers like Fields did. And neither will Taylor when the Pats play the Jete again.
Imagine what the likes of Mayfield or Allen could do to our defense. Ooof. 500 yards, 5TDs, 50 points each. By halftime.
