Allen is an extremely gifted athlete. He will live and die by it until he matures.

Good glove hand by the goalie

 

[Mike McDermott]

It shouldn’t have come down to the wire but we did it.

 

[Sabreality]

thank god

 

[Panthaz89]

Jesus it worked but dont get up and run into the end zone god damn

 

[Mafoofoo]

3-0!

Not so chill 2nd half but got it done

In his defense, he looked at the official in front of him who had blown the play dead before doing it.

They pretty much gave him the benefit of the doubt. If it wasn't a game ending interception I dont think they would just assume he gave himself up. I dont think there is specific guidelines for what determines "giving oneself up."

Whew. I'm sure we'll be sad and 3-1 in seven days but 3-0 is a great start to the season.

 

[Waterfowlist]

Also, that was Allen’s 4th, 4th quarter come from behind victory in 15 career games.


Wasn’t how you drew it up, but a win is a win.

For the 3rd week in a row the offense when through a complete lull, but when the chips were down and they had to score, they did it.

Breaking news: The Bengals are headed to the Peace Bridge in an attempt to seek asylum in the CFL.

If you run the ball out of the back of your own end zone, isn’t that a safety?

He went to the ground and gave himself up. It was the right call

They ruled he gave himself up.

The OL is still having trouble in pass protection. Pressure on Allen was game changing over and over again. The game should have been put away in the first half. Failure to finish drives due to poor execution (OL, WR, RB, and Allen have all been responsible at times) has been an ongoing theme for all three games so far; a pretty glaring blemish on an otherwise much better offense.

Which is to be expected for a brand new offense. The fact that the offense is already being able to move the ball consistently is great

Knox is going to be a beast for us!

The oline is basically an entire new unit with a new offense. It's expected they'd struggle in pass protection more. The unit should gel more they play together.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

That was the most exhausting sporting event I've ever been to. If the offense can fix the mistakes they can be very special

Also, Dawson Knox woke them up, what a run

 

[SharkInABoloTie]

That was a horrendous second half, but the offense got a big play when they needed it, and we can move on (hopefully to the film room, f***in' a)

 

[WeDislikeEich]

Cripes, what a roller coaster ride!

If you hear I had a heart attack, you know why! lol

Happy for the win! But they were lucky they didn’t piss that game away. They really should have been up by 3-4 scores at the half.

They keep making these big mistakes this season and so far have been able to overcome them. I can guarantee that won’t be the case against New England though. The Pats will gladly take advantage of the other team wants to beat themselves (not that they need the help).

But 3-0 is huge! Especially with NE coming into town next week. If they lose, 3-1 sure looks a lot better than
2-2 (which would have erased a nice 2-0 start).

I expected some ups and downs on offense though. 8 or 9 (of 11) new starters, and they are running a very complex offense (John Brown said it’s the most complex offense he’s ever run, and he had Bruce Arians as a HC). Lots of promising signs of growth the first 3 weeks. They just need to put it all together for a whole game now and cut out the big mistakes.

Daboll is starting to worry me. How's everyone else feel about him?
