THIS is what a team who's prepared coming off a bye week looks like. March in to San Francisco and push the Niners around on their own field. WHO DEY. Big time win and statement.
How about those Bengals today?!?!

Burrow is looking much better than he did at the beginning of the year. 49ers don't look as strong as they did weeks ago.
Starting off with a bad record inside of the division isn't good, though, and the Bengals will need to keep winning to catch Baltimore.

Yeah Baltimore definitely looks like the team on the division to bear surprisingly. Pittsburgh and Cleveland both lost today. You love to see it!
It's a bit easier with a salary cap and relative parity and fairness the NFL has.
Bengals definitely look good though. I like Joe burrows and hope they can win the super bowl. My titans won't but with levis I have at least some hope for the future.

Swept the NFC West this year, 8 straight wins against the NFC. While it is good to see Cleveland & Pittsburgh lose, Baltimore is a problem. Their schedule will get tougher though and has been relatively easy to this point. Burrow's mobility looked good today coming out of the Bye week. Higgins who had been banged up caught 5 passes for 69 yards. Tight End play still nonexistent. Need to waive Irv Smith Jr especially after the costly fumble in the 1st Half. Has done absolutely nothing to help this team, 4 for 25 today for his 'best' game all year is not going to cut it. Mixon looked good out there today even without a huge workload. Defense has improved over the last few games but this team still needs a solid TE.
I really thought we were gonna draft a TE in this last draft. Gotta address it, Irv ain't it.
Winning the division would be great but all they care about is getting into the playoffs with a healthy Burrow....nobody will want to play them.
Exciting to see Burrow playing like his old self again. I don't think Baltimore will be a problem for the Bengals. Just keep getting better and keep your key players healthy. The rest will take care of itself.
Pittsburgh won't keep winning. Just not enough healthy pieces and not good enough OL play and scheme.
Baltimore still has Lamar, so he's going to hand some games to opponents that stay in the fight late.
The biggest problem for a healthy Bengals team is the love the league has for big market teams.

Left some points in SF but ended up winning going away. The running game, threat of running and the QB under center keeps the defenses guessing. The Bengals D is on a hell of a turnover streak as well.
This is the only thing that kept my weekend from being completely miserable.
If Burrow can scramble and stay healthy the Bengas are about to shock the NFL.
Looking ahead, that game at Baltimore in 3 weeks is HUUUUGE. Must win if we want to take the division title.
I don't think it is shocking at all to expect this team to be at the top of the NFL. Been one of the best teams for the past 2 seasons winning the AFC North, going to the Super Bowl 2 years ago followed by another AFC Championship Game appearance last season. Definitely not a flash in the pan. As long as they have #1 & #9 they can beat any team in the NFL.
I like the Bengals chances in the rematch, even on the road at Baltimore. Only lost by 3 with Burrow hobbled and happened to be one of Higgins best games this season. One of the worst defensive games the Bengals have had all year and are playing much better as a whole unit since that game.
I really hope so. I just don't see a path for us to win the division without taking down Baltimore on the road. Gotta do it
Probably crying into their Steeler towels right now.
Tanner Hudson signed to the active roster lit a fire under Irv Smith's ass. Scores a TD on the opening drive.
Evan Sample getting in on the action with a TD. Good to see production from multiple TEs tonight.
Big win over the Bills 24-18. Was intrigued by the chemistry Tanner Hudson & Burrow have, 4 catches & 45 yards in the 1st game off the practice squad. Good showing by the Tight Ends and Higgins stepped up with a huge game, 8 catches with 110 yards. Defense was stout again with 2 turnovers until the late TD given up by Diggs.

Uh oh, Bengals starting to live up to the hype. Beating top teams with still plenty of things to clean up offensively. A few more wins and @BlueCephus will lose his mind!
Chase might need a game off and this would be the week to do it if the defense keeps playing well. But he's gonna need to be available vs Baltimore if the Bengals want a road win on November 16.
I agree. No need to rush Chase back. Let him rest and Bwngals just need to focus on not overlooking Houston.
This will be a good thing as long as he comes back 100% with no setbacks. Continue developing the depth and round out the rest of the offense before playing Baltimore with Chase. Just can't afford to take anything for granted the rest of the way. Can't play down to competition. Gotta refine
Also, injury bug is likely to hit Baltimore late, where it's hit most of the league already.
Tee Higgins out of Thursday practice, Ja'Marr Chase returns

Keeping Chase healthy for the stretch run is key for the Bengals as they always have a chance in any game with #1 & #9 but my biggest concern is getting Tee Higgins right. He has been banged up most of the season and just when things were looking up for him, an unfortunate injury. Hoping for the best for them both going forward.Tee Higgins out of Thursday practice, Ja'Marr Chase returns

Tee is probably out this game and Chase is still limited in practice and has a chance to play Sunday.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) expected to miss Week 10 game vs. Texans
Bengals WR Tee Higgins, who injured his hamstring in practice on Wednesday, did not practice today and is expected to miss Sunday’s game against the Texans, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.
Bengals' Tee Higgins ruled out for Week 10 with hamstring injury; Ja'Marr Chase questionable vs. Texans
Joe Burrow won't have one of his top targets on Sunday

As bad as the offense looked at times, the defense gave up their most points and yards this season. If Boyd catches that TD, they probably win but wouldn't really deserve it. I can't see the D doing the same in Baltimore and it being this close.
