We 45 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 11: need the offense to get in the rhythm, move the ball. 46 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 11: Hopefully tonight.

Yes, and what I think is 54 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 7: gonna happen is Bengals may surprise people. I think they're 55 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 7: gonna come out start fast. He might even jump out 56 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 7: to a ten or fourteen point lead, two scores, something 57 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 7: like that. Okay, but regardless, at some point, Zach Taylor 58 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 7: is gonna go painfully conservative. Now all out of them 59 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 7: back into the game, and the Bengals are gonna lose 60 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 7: a heartbreaker by two or three points.

If I have that correct, and the 219 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: branding and everything is awesome. It's very similar to like 220 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: Ryan Geist and the Sinsey Light thing and just doing 221 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 2: the same thing. It's for the all for one, fun 222 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 2: for Xavier, and just seeing UC fans get so mad 223 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 2: about it was awesome. I love that rivalry so much. 224 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: I love how petty each side is. Yeah, Xavier kind 225 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 2: of rips off Cincinnati with the beer thing, and then 226 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: Cincinnati fans are all mad about it. I just I 227 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 2: love that rivalry so much. I cannot wait for December. 228 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 19: Bengals win by three? 229 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: Boy, all right, Bengals by three.

Okay, let's do it. 252 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 23: Yeah, I mean I think we got all the momentum. 253 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 23: I think that with flat Goo now feeling more comfortable, 254 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 23: and there's gonna be the unknown about our defensive line 255 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 23: that Rogers isn't going to be able to anticipate. I mean, 256 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 23: this could be a really, really good night for the Bengals. 257 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 23: As for my prediction, I'm thinking it's probably gonna be 258 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 23: forty two to twelve Steelers. 259 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: Oh that's the beautifully jaded Bengals fangate fan base hot take. 260 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 24: As an in person fan, a white out is the 261 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 24: worst spent eighty five dollars on a Bengals pull over 262 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 24: and all day you risk the chance of spilling beer 263 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 24: or skyline dip on yourself and just looks like a slob. 264 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but on TV it'll look great, you know. I 265 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: hear you. A pro move though, is you gotta go? 266 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: You can't put it on until you get in your seat, 267 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: basically like you carry it with you or you keep 268 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 2: it in the car whatever. Nobody cares if you're wearing 269 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 2: white when you're tailgating. Once you get in your seat, though, 270 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: like then it has it should be on. So I 271 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 2: hear you, though, What up body, space monkeys? What's up? Space? 272 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 9: Tonight? 273 00:14:58,640 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: Another one? 274 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 7: We get back on track when next week? 275 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 3: Move on to four and four? 276 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 18: Okay, seasons back, baby, let's go good. 277 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: I'm smelling what you're stepping in. What Austin Ryan Schamar 278 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 2: Stewart two sacks, Oh Banks twenty three twenty one, Oh baby, 279 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: all right, let's do it. I'm in favor of that, Patty. 280 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 25: I think I think Flacco's gonna find his find his 281 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 25: rhythm tonight. Okay, two weeks into the offense. He's got 282 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 25: a little bit more time to work with all the boys, 283 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 25: and I'm predicting a Bengals win thirty one twenty one. 284 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 2: Okay, offensive explosion thirty one twenty one. 285 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 6: All right, Well, you're sitting down watching the Bengals game, 286 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 6: and Joe Burrow gets sacked. He's got the turf toe 287 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 6: and he's gonna miss time since the nationists screaming fire, 288 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 6: Zach QB's of must backup is a bust time for 289 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 6: oh Joe Fleco. 290 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: Beautifully done there by Mark Hey Austin. 291 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 5: I wanted to get your thoughts on what your conversation 292 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 5: was at the top of the hour with the Bengals 293 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 5: not being able to do anything with their front office 294 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 5: and compared to the Tennessee Titans and their rotating door 295 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 5: and the Baltimore Ravens and how they always seem to 296 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 5: do things right but seem to be in the same, 297 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 5: if not worse situation than the Bengals. 298 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, the NFL is difficult and there's not really an 299 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 2: exact science. I mean, the way the Chiefs have built 300 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 2: their dynasty is not the same as the way the 301 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 2: Eagles have kind of built over the last couple of years. 302 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 2: And the Eagles in the middle of struggles and they've 303 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 2: dealt with coordinators leaving and all this other stuff. And 304 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: Baltimore has been the model of consistency for a long 305 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 2: time and it's gotten them close but never over the hump. 306 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 2: And even Cleveland has had the same people in place 307 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 2: for a long time and they just kind of keep 308 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: spinning their tires and going nowhere, and the Bengals have 309 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: They've changed a little bit here and there, and they've 310 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 2: done a few things differently, but mostly it's still the 311 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 2: same process. And the Bengals for the most part, are 312 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 2: always competitive. They're at least you know, in it, and 313 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 2: I believe are a well run organization. It's just that 314 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: there's no exact science to it. It's difficult. Like even 315 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 2: if you look at San Francisco, I think John Lynch 316 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: and Kyle Shanahan are a great example of like what 317 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: a quarter or what a coach and a GM relationship 318 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 2: should be, and yet they just get ravaged by injuries 319 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: every year and it's held them back. Even in a 320 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 2: year like this year where they're supposed to be competitive, 321 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 2: their injuries are killing them. I look at a team 322 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 2: like Tampa where just Jason light I think is O gosh, 323 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 2: what's the GM of the Bucks. I'm blanking on his 324 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: name right now. But he has full autonomy and full 325 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 2: control and again just feeds these players to develop into 326 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 2: Todd Bowles. Like, there's all these different ways to do it. 327 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 2: Some teams are really good at it, some teams are not. 328 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 2: There is no exact science, and you know, it's it's 329 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 2: easy to compare, but it's not really easy to execute. 330 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 2: All right, that was our last talkback. We'll take a break. 331 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 2: Phone calls are open five one three. Phone lines are 332 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 2: open to five one, three, seven, four nine. Fifteen thirty. 333 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 2: We'll take a break. We'll come back, get a little 334 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 2: football in the nattie and more. This is ESPN fifteen 335 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 2: thirty
