Week 9 begins with a troubling development... Joe Flacco is uncertain (50/50) to play against the Bears due to a sprain to the AC joint in his right throwing shoulder. Not ideal for the 40-year old quarterback. It's also not ideal to still have Jake Browning as the backup. How's Sean Clifford looking though? p.s. Joe Burrow isn't coming back this year, deal with it. #whodey #nfl

Things were going so well... until it all fell apart in the 4th quarter. This week, the New York team was on the winning end of a miraculous comeback, at the expense of the Cincinnati Bengals and their loyal fans. The Jets gained over 500 yards of offense, and a bit of respect around the league, by stunning the home crowd. Aaron Glenn showed he's not afraid to go for 2, down by 9, late in the game. That's how you win. And the Bengals didn't have an answer when it mattered the most... Zac Taylor said someone needs to "Step up and make a play" What does that even mean?! Why don't you make some better calls, coach!?

The New York Friggin' Jets (0-7) come in to Paycor Stadium Saturday at 1 pm to take on the Cincinnati Bengals (3-4) who are riding a 1-game winning streak ;-) Can Joe Flacco keep it going? I don't believe in momentum, but if it exists, the Bengals will win this game. #WhoDey

The Bengals win in Primetime! Steelers record on Thursdays goes to 0-9. Maybe that talk about road division games being tough was legit. Joe Flacco was very legit, throwing 47 passes, half of them to Ja'Marr Chase, who ended with 16/161/1. Chase Brown went over 100 yards on only 11 carries, including a season-long of 37 yards. Aaron Rodgers was not happy, with anyone, especially the teammate who tackled him to the ground and made Rodgers fold up like an old card table. Jalen Ramsey was getting cooked all night; was their plan really to have him guard Ja'Marr in man coverage?? #WhoDey!

The Cincinnati Bengals (2-4) are a team in flux in many ways. Linebacker and Offensive Guard have seen new faces in recent weeks. Will we see some new receiving options? We've got a "new" quarterback in Joe Flacco, although, at 40-years old, he probably doesn't have that new quarterback smell. He probably smells like a grizzled old man. Just like his counterpart, Aaron Rodgers, who looks like Darth Vader in that Steelers (4-1) helmet. It's going to be another electric night for the White Bengal game at Paycor Stadium. WhoDey!

Correction: Yes, Moses parted the Red Sea, not Noah, you know what I meant!

Bengals lose their 4th straight, 27-18, to the Packers. But Joe Flacco looked like a professional quarterback, which is more than we could say about Jake Browning the past 3 games. Ja'Marr Chase continues to be unstoppable. The defense forced a huge redzone turnover early. They kept it reasonably close! Now that's how you lose a football game! #WhoDey

The Bengals (2-3) had to do something at quarterback after 3 straight embarrassing performances by Jake Browning. But trading with the hated Browns for a 40-year old stop-gap, who will come in and start immediately in Green Bay... SEEMS a bit desperate if you ask me. And I know PLENTY about desperation, let me tell you. This is not good... This is SO not good. But I can't stop watching this horror of a season. WhoDey!

Another week, another crushing defeat for the Bengals. Jake Browning threw 3 mind-numbing interceptions to essentially eliminate any hope for the Bengals of pulling off the upset. A few scores in garbage time made it look respectable, but this one never felt remotely close.... But don't tell that to Zac Taylor! He still has 100% confidence in himself as a playcaller and coach and it's ALL going to be "better", somehow. As Zac Taylor himself said (quoting Marvin Lewis), "I SEE BETTER THAN I HEAR!" #WHODEY

It's time to Stripe the Jungle! Bengals face the Lions (3-1), who are one of the hottest teams in the NFL right now. Perhaps not the best matchup for a team (the Bengals) still licking its wounds from the previous 2 weeks of horrible, lackluster performances.

According to Zac Taylor, he has 'unwavering' confidence in Jake Browning. But it seems like he has more confidence in his job security, because there doesn't seem to be any sense of urgency to implement changes. Everything's going according to plan, if you listen to Zac. (I don't recommend this)

Aaaargh... this team is becoming difficult to watch. Another extremely disappointing and frustrating loss this week. On national TV! The ABC announcers were calling out the team for a lack of effort. That's a reflection of the head coach (Zac Taylor) and his utter incompetence. This season is over. And yet... I can't stop watching. It's like that scene in A Clockwork Orange, I'm being forced to watch this inept head coach lead this team nowhere.
