Win the next 3 and we clinch the East

[PatsFan2]

I am concerned with how lightly some of y’all are taking Cincy.

With Burrow they could absolutely put up serious points on our defense.

Kayson Boutte was all smiles at Practice yesterday. Boutte ain't like KW running Routes he's in synch with Maye: he knows where to be. We are going to put a 40 spot on them Murder!

I don’t even know you anymore.

If Drake only had the weapons like the Bengals... Chase and Higgins and it'd be Super Bowl bound for us!

Your followers will be screaming blasphemy.

It's going to be pretty tough for Buffalo to win the AFC East if Pats beat the Jets and Fins, even if they beat the Pats when they are coming off a bye.

Just win baby.

Just win out, baby.

Buffalo have been a little shaky on the Road: Three or their next Four are @ Steelers vs Bengals @ Patriots @ Browns with S Sanders: no gimme for them there. Buffalo is wounded too no rest for the weary. IF they drop a couple of those they might miss the Playoffs.

Getting slightly ahead of ourselves but looking at the Top 3 seeds, we're playing teams with combined 24 wins, Denver is playing teams with a combined 29 wins and the Colts are playing teams with a whopping 43 wins for the remainder of their schedule.

So the betting odds are on the Pats getting the #1 seed.

Though if we didn't the last game will probably be meaningless and anyone who needs a rest will get one in Week 18

Bengals Defense 2025:

33.2 PPG
32nd in points allowed
32nd in yards allowed
31st against the pass
32nd against the run
32nd in yards per drive allowed (39.8)
32nd in points per drive allowed (2.98)
31st in Net Yards/Pass Allowed (7.1)

Edit: As a reminder, there are 32 teams in the league.

I didn’t realize they were that bad. Good post.

Most sites have us with a 90% chance to win the division. Feels pretty awesome knowing we are all but guaranteed a home playoff game

And all in the first year of a new rebuild, it is truly amazing.

Our future is bright. Front office is legit and the makeup of this team is set for years of contending

Stud qb - 23 yo
Top 5-10 HC - 50 yo
Best OC in the game- Terrible hc so not going anywhere
Shutdown cb - 23 yo
Franchise LT - 21 yo
Dominant DL - barmore and Williams are 26 yo
Henderson - 23 yo is just scratching the surface but i predict he will be a stud

To your point, theyre just getting started. Give this fo next year to add a few more pieces and this team will be scary!!

You forgot that the Patriots have 14 rookies on their 53 man roster, the most in the NFL.

And a good number of picks next year. Glad we held onto them at the deadline

I wish we used some to help sure up the pass rush. I can't help but be jealous watching the Texans rush the other night.

We don't need a place kicker, a punter, a gunner, or a long snapper, so what will we do with four 6th round picks?

Me...me...me... I would recommend some WR's.

I don’t remember a fearsome pass rush being the hallmark of any of the six NE championships. It isn’t something that fascinates me as much as it does others on this board.

I’m just amazed to still be in November and reading about the legitimate shot NE has of taking the AFCE. The first overall seed is just bonkers….. that it’s not far fetched.

Boutte and Pop were 6th rounders and worked out OK, so let's try 4 more 6th round WRs? Great idea.

Wasn't Brady a 6th rounder? Maybe we should draft 4 more QBs?
