Pile him up with carries because Brooks will probably be making his debut next week.

I doubt that. He hasn't practiced as a pro yet. From 0 to playing in a week?

So the Bengals have looked fuging bad this year. They had a good offensive performance against a redskins team that probably doesn’t have a great defense. Jayden Daniels looks amazing sure; but Jayden daniels didn’t have anything to do with a 33 year old tight end waddling around wide open, and kingsbury’s offense is a known quantity at this point. beating it is all about execution; it’s not complex. 

the bengals lost Trent brown against the reds kind as well. 

Obviously burrow is burrow and chase is chase. Higgins is also clearly a stud. 

Raiders probably have a better d line than Cincinnati. Without thielen the panthers are going to have to run the ball. 

I think the whole game comes down to how horn does on chase, and how the panthers run block. If they win both those matchups I think they win. 

the other thing about the raiders game is it was such a blowout and the raiders were so obviously outmatched I’m not sure how much good tape there is on the Dalton panthers. They were doing whatever they wanted.

I’d be elated if they won but it’s such an unknown at this point

40% maybe. I don’t trust us to win a shootout yet. Not the first game post Thielen.

But I know we could possibly put some decent points up again.  

Probably not getting shut out. Couldn’t say that two weeks ago.

• Bengals Total Off: 15th
• Bengals Pass Off: 6th
• Bengals Rush Off: 28th
• Bengals Total Def: 13th
• Bengals Pass Def: 9th
• Bengals Rush Def: 26th

Run the damn ball; shut down their pass and make them run= win. 

To our benefit, it will be raining.

A mudder game would change everything yes. And we are set up for that. Oh wait, we don't have mud we have wet plastic carpet or something.

They struggle to run the ball and they don’t generate a consistent pass rush.

Those 2 things bode well for us.  
 

They can score from anywhere on the field.

No lead is safe.

We’ll need to control the clock, and win the turnover battle.

Itll be a tough one to win against an angry team.  It can be done, we’ll just have to see which Panthers team shows up.

As long as Dalton is Qb im back on my BS. We gonna kick their ass.

Pass rush comes alive. 4 sacks, 2 PD, 1 strip sack and fumble recovery. 

1 int for the secondary. 

Andy throws 3 more TDs, 1 pick, 340 yards. 1 of the TDs goes to Trimble on a seam route. Running game goes 185 yards total. Chuba goes over 100 and has a 17 yard run that goes for 6. 

Final score 31-17 us. We win the TOP battle by 7 minutes.

All I have to say is wow. What a difference 1 week of real Top NFL QB play for the first time in years makes. 

I honestly can't remember when I saw a Panthers' passing attack like that. I'm sure there's been a couple of games along the way but my last memories are of Cam.  

Smells like football.

Go Panthers!!!
