Look. This sucks. I know it. You know it.

Joe Burrow had a normal offseason. He played in the preseason. The Bengals went 2-0 for to start the season for the first time in Zac Taylor's tenure, and now "poof" Burrow goes down to injury once again.

It sucks.

I'm not a silver linings guy, not a Mr. Brightside. But I'm also not a quitter.

This season is not over. Jake Browning can chuck the ball around and win some games. Of course, it doesn't hurt that he has a vast arsenal of offensive weapons. This defense isn't bad. In fact, they might even be good.

All I'm saying is, that they could still be a good team without Burrow and if they can be a good team without him, just imagine how scary they will be when he returns.

Matt and Willie dive into the Burrow loss and what it means for the future. More pressingly, they discuss what happens next. This team isn't tanking. They are not hanging up the towel. They aren't cashing their paychecks and saying, "oh well, there is always next year."

The did not waver when Burrow hit the turf and I would not expect them to do so anytime soon.

The fun has only begun. Who Dey!
