Wont be able to watch until halftime but really looking forward to seeing if our Bungles are finally ready to Bengal. Today will go a long way towards making many of us believers.
Of note, Reiff and Hopkins are questionable from what I'm hearing this morning. Not sure I like the Prince vs Bosa matchup if Reiff cant go, but if he has a bad ankle then Reiff will lose that matchup anyway. Oline will be something to keep an eye on today both in protection but also how well they open holes for Mixon against a very poor run defense.
I really want to see Chase and Boyd go off today. They have been way too silent.

Sorry to have to report the game is being televised here in Arizona. I'm going to try and talk Drivekiller into going over to Camp Verde to do some shopping but don't count on any miracles.....

The Bengals inactive list is a worst-case scenario due to injuries.
RT Riley Reiff and C Trey Hopkins are inactive.
The likely starting offensive line: Jonah Williams, Quinton Spain, Trey Hill, Hakeem Adeniji, Isaiah Princess.
Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin)
Also, with CB and returner Phillips inactive, vet CB Hargreaves and rookie WR Pookah-shells Williams make Bengals debutes.

I wasnt disappointed with Hill earlier this year and I'm sure he has improved a bit since then. But Prince concerns me. We'll see.

Sorry guys, my wife owns that first Chargers TD. She was watching the feed and told them to go for it on 4th down since it was so early in the game. I have her bound and gagged in the corner for the next 3 hours. Maybe longer.

Tackling looks good early but pass-rush is non existent.

This is why only a few are excited about what the Bengals have done this season and why others aren't. We've been through good teams. We've been through beating KC years ago when they were undefeated. We been through some good games. We've been through the steelers rivalry. The back and fourth. We've had great teams with Palmer, Rudy, Chad, Tj, etc.. but at the end of the day all we want is some playoff wins. I don't care if this team goes 16-1 if we don't make it count in the playoffs then its a bust year for me.
I've seen this all this before. I seen this team win 12 games, beat great teams. I've seen the up and downs. All I want is some playoff wins. Period. No more. End of story.
