Gonna be real interesting to see how this shakes out.

Tennessee's offense lives and dies by Derrick Henry given Tannehill's best asset is his work off play action. Cincy's run defense is actually pretty solid.

If this game comes down to arms it's the same situation you have when the Bengals faced the Raiders: you'd rather have to bet on Joe Burrow's arm as opposed to Tannehill.

Henry being fresh means he gives the Bengals fits and they win by 6. He's just too much of a freak.

If Henry is out or not 100% we can keep it close. If he is at full strength, we can't.

I still cannot believe we are in this position to begin with, so I will try to enjoy this game no matter what.

Raiders OLine took 6 penalties. If the Titans OL can play a relatively clean game and Henry is back they can run ion Cincy. Raiders started to run the ball better in the second half but had drives stall due to holding calls.

38-24 win for Cincy. Titans score 2 TDs in garbage time to make it look closer than it is after trying to lean on Henry when he wasn't ready.

I believe talent wise, the Bengals can win this game.

But this reeks of ''just happy to be here'' syndrome and I think the Titans are way better coached. Titans win by 10.

I hope we (Bengals) can make it a game. I have faith in our offense not matter who we play. If we can play like we did agains the Raiders in the first half we have a chance. If we play like we did in the second we are going home.

I heard that Henry, Brown, and Julio only played 120 snaps together. They still won 12 games, I think the Bengals can win this game because of Burrow but I see the titans edginf them out.

Maybe I haven't been paying attention, but how is Tennessee the top seed in the AFC. They just didn't strike me as a "great" team last season. I would like to see the Bengals go in and pull the upset out. They are on fire right now.

We have to be better in the red zone though, far too much settling for FG's against the Raiders.

We won't keep pace with the Titans with FG's.

Not that it's my business, but hopefully everyone in your circle is okay.

I lost 3 relatives to this virus. I am not a fan.

Bengals are hot, going with the Icky Shuffle

Now THAT is ClAssic with a capital Ass.

Probably didn’t look impressive considering they were missing pretty much every relevant offensive skill position player for almost the entire 2nd half of the season.

As for the how, I’d guess it’s because they set the record for beating the most teams with a winning record (8 I believe) including 3 of the remaining teams in the playoffs.

In short, Vrabel for COTY. AINEC.
