    Damn I love some Hurray bringing the numbers! I’m putting on a diaper no holds barred, he’s my backup! Careful when ya shoot in, might get a handle on something you weren’t expecting, much like the Bengals!

    Let’s not forget that Corey Davis had 0 catches for 0 yards on 2 targets in the playoffs last year. If Julio brings ANYTHING, he’s an upgrade.

    In watching several other Bengals games this week, one thing that I have noticed is that a bunch of the sacks that the Bengals have given up have been on secondary blitzes...I know that our main recipe for success is letting the front 4 get the pressure and having 7 in coverage, but I would like to see us throw some blitzes early at Burrow to make him uncomfortable and hopefully get him to start seeing ghosts when we fake pressure later

    I’ve been seeing the Vrabel after a bye record flashed in a bunch of places as a note of his success.

    A different note I just saw, bengals road playoff record all time? 0-7.

    Useless trivia knowledge champion, indeed :p

    They've been a pretty good road team this year. The crowd noise does hurt Burrow's hard count, though, which is something he's very good at.

    But here's the thing about that, at what point do you start over? That 0-7 record was over 31 years ago lol.

    Simms and Florio made their picks:

    Bengals (+3.5) at Titans

    MDS’s take: The Titans are healthier right now than they were during the regular season, and I’m expecting them to play one of their best games and remind everyone that the road to the Super Bowl in the AFC goes through Tennessee.

    MDS’s pick: Titans 27, Bengals 20.

    Florio’s take: Derrick Henry makes a huge difference for a team that went 6-3 without him. The Cincinnati offense lacked the killer instinct on Saturday against the Raiders, allowing Las Vegas to hang around for far too long. While the Bengals may indeed be a Super Bowl contender in 2022, it feels like they’ve reached the end of the road. The Titans, in contrast, are just getting started.

    Florio’s pick: Titans 24, Bengals 17.
