I mean, really? There isn’t a spare chain somewhere on the sideline?

And now a pick at midfield. Giants defense needs a stop.

Well that was brutal. You know it’s bad when the only score you get is in garbage time. But it’s really bad when that garbage time started at halftime.

Wonder what that does to contract negotiations.

He looked great against the Colts and Vikings, but put him up against a real defense like the Eagles and he’s right back to the 5 YPA he’s been showing the past couple years. At least he was throwing it beyond the line of scrimmage, even after the interception. But yikes.

You mean Cincinnati or Buffalo? They’re going to face one of them for certain.

The interception was key. Giants were definitely going to count on quick passes to avoid the pass rush, the int early in the game on just such a play seemed to really spook Jones.

Impressive start by the Bengals. Excellent gameplan/play calling so far. Could be fun. I expect a lot more running by Josh Allen.

These announcers are embarrassing. “Oof, 3rd and 20? Do you go for it? Punt?”

Um, no, you would run a regular play. And the Bengals were obviously going to decline the penalty, so it wasn’t going to be 3rd down anyway.

Never been a huge fan of Zach Taylor, but he had the Bengals prepared, created a great game plan for both sides of the ball, and got a huge win on the road. Kudos.
