[sb]

lets ****in go!

 

[2pacalypsenow]

Wow what a time to be a broncos fan. Your team is in good hands

 

[carver]

Need cinci to lose for the memes cause their dumb *** coach

 

[DeadsetAce]

I know the onus should be mostly on the defense for ******* that up

but Burrow just haaaaaaad to score on that sneak that early

nah if you need to be afraid of going up 7 with a 1:30 left, your defense is absolute dog ****


that aint brady or pat back there. it's boris ******* nix

EYE get that, but these defensive players get paid too.

 

[B Sox]

Somebody I know really needs a Jamar Chase TD. And they somehow still have a chance

 

[youngwolf]

I wouldn’t say it’s about being afraid. They had a chance to leave them with 20 seconds and no timeouts. It was an opportunity to seal the win.

 

[tennhouse2]

I still believed you go for the garunteed points with the td......but man the cinci defense is buns, should be able to trust your d to not allow a rushed td over trusting your kicker to not miss and give them a chance for the win.

Is it always about being scared though?

I've heard Tom Brady himself say the goal is to have the ball last in those situations regardless of who the QB is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[finessence]

I was wrong about Bo nix

maybe. but there's no guarantee you're scoring on 3rd down or definitely with a kicker in 2024. if you can't trust your defense to protect that lead against a rookie, it's probably irrelevant for the playoffs anyway

 

[broncos19dm]

sigh not like this cmon D

i feel you but it's no guarantee you're scoring. if you have a lead, sure take it way down as much as possible

kickers these days are no sure thing

 

[rolaholic]

Burrow and Chase are having amazing seasons but this is gonna end fittingly, this Bengals squad has no business in the postseason with that defense...

 

[elpablo21]

That's the same logic though. If you're scared to kick at the 1 yard line for the win why you out there for

I get it though, make the stop

but we all saw how goofy it looked watching Chase slide to kill time only for Burrow to say **** that lmao

 

[DeadsetAce]

yeah that was def goofy as hell. especially if the discussion in the huddle was to get down

 

[yobyellav]

we may get a tie

 

[rolaholic]

Damn Bo had him

Cincy about to get another chance

 

[broncos19dm]

I can’t

 

[yobyellav]

Bo had him.

 

[rolaholic]

Horrible punt

No flag though for contact after fair catch?

These rules are optional I swear , depends on how the refs feel

 

[carver]

Horrible throw followed by a horrible punt

 

[yobyellav]

Damn. A couple first downs will do it.

 

[broncos19dm]

BUM NIX
