Before today's game, I figured there was a good chance we'd see more of the same offense from week 1, paving the way for the Jets to get desperate and start Mike White against Cincinnati. Happy to be wrong.
They just lost tonite to the Boyz so they may come into MetLife with a attitude. Especially considering what White did to them last season.
If the front 4 can’t create any pressure against Cinci, i don’t know if we ever will. Chase vs Sauce is going to be fun to watch though, that’s for sure.
Does SloJoe sit after this win today is the question. I think Saleh will stay with Flacco another week at least.
If there’s ever a game for our DL to put up some serious numbers, it’s this one. Play mistake free football and I think they win this one.
I actually think this bengals team is a great matchup for us. Obviously they can turn it on immediately but: 1. Their OL is putrid. Our DL haven’t really had a chance to pin its ears back with the heavy run O we’ve seen these two weeks 2. Their DL is not great and the CBS are questionable at best. Just need to take care of the ball. I’d argue this browns D is the best we’ve seen so far (on paper). Ravens D just played great. I’d put Gardner one on one vs Higgins all game and double up on Chase. No more zone! Gardner in zone was painful. He’s a pure man CB
My younger self would feel great heading into this game, but after experiencing a number of letdowns over the years, I'll say this. This will be a hard fought victory if we're able to pull it off.
I noticed the jets were killed in the short passing game today. Burrow is really good at that. Not sure if this will be a great game for us.
I think Mixon hurt his ankle. Not that it really matters because he s a tough dude and came back to play the last 2 possessions.
