With Lamar Jackson still questionable-to-doubtful, Baltimore might be starting Josh Johnson vs Cinci.

I have a feeling Lamar will put on his cape

Maybe so, but its an important enough game for Baltimore that I have to think if he could play they wouldn't have planned to go with Huntley. Even if he does play, he hasn't practiced for two weeks and he's most likely only at 60-70% with that sprained ankle.

Nope. Josh Johnson.

Haha Josh Johnson’s cape isn’t that big

I'm afraid it's time for the Steelers to lose and lose big today. Even if Kelce is not playing. Hope I'm wrong, but I think both of our teams will be out of the playoff hunt after this week.

Lets go Bengals and Chiefs.

We have resorted to hoping things workout in our favor again. Go Cincy and Chiefs

Where do we find a big, rangy, and fast WR like Tee Higgins? I like him better than Chase among the Bengal WRs.

I noticed the Bengals have a drafted their WRs in the 1st 3 RDs over
The years. Meanwhile the Browns wait till the later RDs to draft WRs.
There isnt one WR on the Browns that could start for the Bengals

I agree with you on this. I also know you are down on Baker and don't believe he is the answer ... Are you suggesting that you can comment on how mediocre the Browns WR are and it's doesn't mean you are giving a free pass to Baker .... what a concept.

Burrow>Mayfield and jealous of the all Bengals Recievers.

Chargers are really having a Cleveland Browns type stinker today.

Having Burrow still dropping back and taking hits is stupid.

I don't know WTF the bungles were thinking.

I don't know WTF the bungles were thinking.

Good teams win games they are supposed to win.

The way it looks....If the Chiefs and us both take care of the steelers and bungles, we win the division. Not totally out of the question.

I think Ravens DC Wink Martindale took a shot at Burrow
This week in the press and JB decided to shove those comments
In.his face hence throwing the.ball late in the game

Our playoff hopes are not dead yet. Thank you Bungles!

We might sneak in the back door. Better than being dead by mid-October, isn’t it?

But almost. Let's face it, the only team that's playing like they are going to win this division are the Bengals. And I don't think it's even close.

J/c. Bengals beat the ravens and chiefs up 14-0 on steelers. If chiefs win we are playing meaningful football in January. Past years we would have killed for that. Maybe we should can the negativity around the browns. We are not out of this yet.

Exactly. We just took the best team in the league down to the wire at their place (and should have won). If the chiefs hold serve vs the steelers today and the bungles next week....and we do the same, we are the division champs. I don't see the rats beating both the rams and the steelers.

Sure, but lets be realistic. We're losing the next 2 games, so there really isn't much to be excited about.

We easily could have won the last two games with horrible QB play. We can easily win the next two.

Hopefully with good QB play, more enjoyable to watch.

I think "easily" is quite a stretch.

That would be dependent on us beating the Bengals and Steelers beating the Ravens. Possible? Yes. Likely? No.

We only need the Rams to be the ravens.

I am not saying anything about any other games. I am talking about our own team’s performance. We can easily beat the Bengals and Steelers. It’s not some pipe dream.

The Bengals have a two game lead. We would have to beat the Bengals as well.

I would buy that if we could have "easily" beat the Steelers last time when that game was basically gift wrapped for our offense to take and they couldn't.

Last time around the Bengals played their worst football of the season and we had our best day (which rarely happens). It would take something similar, and let's face it. It ain't happening.

That Roethlisberger fumble on the supposed fake reverse was hilarious. Me and my wife were laughing our butts off

That's a given. I said we only need the Rams to beat the rats, not the steelers like you said.

The Bengals are 3-4 in their last 7 games (had lost their last 2 before this one) with losses to the Jets, a bad loss to the Browns, the 49ers and the Chargers... and they just beat up on a Ravens team whose roster looks like day 5 of The Squid Games... I wouldn't exactly anoint them with anything yet.

The hardest part of what has to happen is we have to win 2 games...

Other than that, the Rams beating the Ravens and the Chiefs beating the Bengals is very much a possibility.

Chiefs will screw us in the last week. They would rather play any of the other teams in our division over us in the playoffs, IMO.

Cannot wait for Monday night against them Steelers, going to feel like a long time to get here.

Need a New Orleans win tomorrow against the Dolphins.

What

Oops. I thought they played Pit in the final week, not today. So scratch that.

He was wrong - as usual.

So let me get this straight, we need ALL of these:

- Browns win over Pittsburgh
- Browns win over Cincinnati
- Chiefs win over Cincinnati
- LA Rams win over Baltimore

Bingo.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

Not completely unrealistic

It's not - but if the Chiefs get the #1 seed locked up, they're not playing starters against Cincy.

they play next week and have not locked it up, yet.

How sad is it that there is no discernible difference between Taylor Heineke and Baker Mayfield?

Depressing.

Did anyone see bengals game? Ravens player catches ball and goes down but gets up because he was untouched and ran 13 more yards....refs spot the ball at the end of the run....cbs goes to commercial break...upon return the officials declared after review the runner was down by contact....the bengals did not challenge....it wast inside 2 minutes...so what gave new york the ability to just review that play? You cant pick and choose what gets reviewed and what doesnt when there are standards and rules....more evidence that the nfl does what ever it wants with out regard to its integrity.

The Rams have nothing to play for. They have home field. Soooo that sucks

Happens quite often. But, he won't back down. Ever.

I also wonder why when the Bengals D got the interception 3 players ran down to the fans and one player had his helmet off as he ran down field... no penalty called

They are only 1 up on Tennessee who finish with 2 easy games. Tennessee holds the tie breaker due to beating the Chiefs in October.

Incorrect. The Rams are still paying to win their division and the #1 seed with a bye.

Boy would it be depressing if the Bengals managed to knockoff the Chiefs and rendered the Browns MNF game vs the Steelers meaningless.

That would suck.

You can't argue that it wouldn't be deserved though.

wait, what?

rams 11-4. Cardinals 10-5.

if rams lose next 2 games and cards win their 2, cards win division. rams have plenty to play for. hell, I think they still have a chance for 1st round bye, if they win out and GB loses out.

I sit corrected

I am dreading that game. It could be Ben's last game at Heinz field. The NFL will not let him go out a loser. After the atrocious officiating in the Aaron Rogers record game, imagine what it will be like on Monday night football with the Steelers at Heinz field.

Baker played bad, but the timing on some of those calls hurt just as bad.The false start one was the worst.

With the way the Bengals are playing, I don't think that is going to be an easy game to win. This covid crap shot a big hole in the teams aspirations. It is what it is at this point, but if they win the next two, it will be a positive ending to a somewhat disappointing season.

j/c...

J/c

Heinicke is bad and Rish is right: he’s not far off of what Baker is at the moment. Hesitant, not athletic, awful under duress, etc

Unfortunately my prediction was accurate about the Steelers. I don't think they will win another game this season.

I hope they beat the rats if the Rams don't.

They will win Monday. No way the NFL doesn't give Ben a victory in his last game at home.

Squeaky wheel desperate for grease. No Jiffy Lube for you today.

And we are 2-4 in our last six.

Not true. First seed is technically still up for grabs with a GB loss. Same in the AFC with a KC loss. IIRC.

That New Orleans game was maybe the worst offensive performance I’ve ever seen. Ian Book was a freaking tackling dummy

Miami has gone 7-0 since their 1-7 start. Season has been on the line for 7 games and they've won them all.

So you're saying they are playing playoff caliber football and have been for weeks now and we're not? If so I agree.

If the chiefs lose to the Bengals then we are out. if I'm correct. Winning the division is the only way in
