Bengals at Chargers (-1.5) Pre Game Discussion (Wk 11)

[chargeroo]

This game is a must-win game for the Bengals. If they lose this one their chance of makung it into the playoffs this year are very slim. We better be ready for maximum effort from the Bengals.

What do you guy think Burrows will do tomorrow? Will he do his usual thing and score lots of fantasy points or will we pin him down? I have him in a money league and I also have Russel Wilson. I want to bench Burrows and hope we squish him. Bad idea or good idea?

Burrows will have a big day but Chargers will win.

You end up with the best of both worlds.

. So nothing to lose, and not the end of the world if we do slip.

oh there’s a LOT to lose.

like who’s the best QB of the 2020 draft bragging rights.

like are the Chargers finally going to win a featured nationally televised game in prime time or do a face plant like they always do.

like which team is real and which is a poser.

Bengal fans know this game is BIG and means everything while Charger fans are ready to hand out participation trophies.

The Bad news…..Burrows and Chase carved up the Ravens zone defense which Minter also employs.

The Good news….Minter got a fresh look of how that was done so hopefully makes adjustments.

Burrows strengths are accuracy and quick reads which is exactly what you want to combat zone coverage so it's reasonable to think he will have a good game. I'm still confident that we can mix up the coverage drops and force some turnovers though. I think this is one where if we win the turnover battle we win.

Tells me - probably -that Mack will not play

Also supporting this idea: Today the Chargers signed LB Shaquille Quarterman to the active roster and waived CB Dicaprio Bootle. (although I don't know if Quarterman plays outside ("edge") or inside)

I'm not following you, so a few questions:

(+) Who is it that Charger fans are ready to hand out participation trophies to?

(+) Can you name specific posters, or cite actual posts?

(+) Or are you talking about Charger fans who aren't forum members?

(+) Are you talking about all Charger fans, or just a couple of buttheads?

(+) Don't all teams have their share of butthead fans?

(+) Are you saying that Bengals fans are a bunch of nervous hand-wringers? Or does that label only get applied to Charger fans who consider a particular game *BIG*?

Thanks in advance for any clarification!

Salyer needs to start, we need to pass more, and get Joshua Palmer more involved....

Just our luck, somebody will claim Bootle off waivers, and he'll become a Hall of Famer.

Too many questions. If you have a young child or grandchild I’m sure they can explain it to you.
