Bengals have a pretty beat up D line, against King Henry it might be a bit of a struggle.
In Joey we trust
Oh without a doubt, but... The bengals have given up the 5th fewest rushing yards in the NFL and the defense has been quietly improving a lot over the season. Another big standout to me is competition. Below are listed each of the teams last 5 games of the season. (that starters played in) from least to most recent. Bengals: Chargers, 49ers, Broncos, Ravens, Chiefs, Raiders (playoff game) Titans: Jags Steelers 49ers Dolphins Texans The competition disparity especially in recent weeks makes me feel like the Titans will be overwhelmed and if nothing else start slow. Finally the Titans have had 7 of there 17 games this season be decided by 3 or less points. The other big problem that led to big point differentials was poor coaching (cardinals, eagles) and being undisciplined (cowboys, cardinals). The bengals are a well disciplined team having the 2nd least penalties called against them this season. All of these things combined makes me really like Cincinnati. I know all of the hype is on the Titans and Derrick Henry’s return but I think that this is a really scary Bengals team and if you're a betting man, the+3.5 is more than fair. |

Strange that to me - that I think Bengals have probably got the best draw for the next round yet the Titans were the number 1 seed in their division.
Maybe I’m doing them a disservice and I know QB isn’t the only position but Burrows, Mahomes, Brady, Rodgers, Allen…then…Tannehill…
The seeding got screwed up this season due to the Chiefs starting really slowly during which time the Titans (certainly a decent team but not 'Chiefs good' ) beat them, giving them the tiebreaker between the two and meaning that one of the two best teams in the AFC in Buffalo and KC will not get to the Championship game... been an interesting season... |

Not overly keen on the black / white / orange combo worn vs LV but overall pretty good. And of course those helmets are the best in the NFL and it's not even close😉 |

Can't wait...should be a decent away support...it's not a long drive from Cincy to Nashville...just over 4 hours and for a long time before Nashville / Tennesse got it's own team the Bengals were the local NFL team so I think there is still quite a bit of support down there... |

Turns out an MVP QB isn't so valuable when he doesn't have a fit Running Back or a couple of high quality Wide Receivers to help him out. Shame.
Now, can someone please give Aaron Rodgers Covid again.

High profile injuries in key areas, and a lot of accusations of poor play calling. Large parts of our fanbase aren't happy with the staff and want wholesale changes this off season. |

I'm sure now he's got even more antibodies he'll be healthier than ever! Unless viruses mutate of course |

So, I was reading somewhere that the Bengals have never won a playoff game in the road, surely they have a real chance tonight

As I've boringly said several times: D wins in the playoffs. I've watched a dull Swindon game, a dull England cricket match and now settled down to watch the second half of the Bengals! |
