It's the greatest thing 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:17.560 since PJ Combs. It's appropriate that the Bengals were in 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.440 Baltimore this week because it's the home of one of 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:24.479 the most famous streaks in sports, cal Ripken's incredible run 0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.680 of playing in two thousand, six hundred and thirty two 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:32.640 consecutive games over a sixteen year period with the Orioles. Well, 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:35.440 my friend PJ Combs hit a milestone on Thursday night 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:39.720 working in his six hundredth consecutive game as a member 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:43.240 of the Bengals media relations staff. Pj's been on the 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.280 job for thirty years and does his job as well 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:50.400 as anybody in the NFL. Oh and there's another reason 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:54.440 why Baltimore was an appropriate site for Pj's six hundredth 0:01:54.680 --> 0:02:00.200 consecutive game. Nobody, and I mean nobody loved there's a 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:04.720 Baltimore crab cake more than PJ. Now, time for the 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:10.760 radio replays from Thursday's AFC North showdown in Baltimore. On 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:14.120 a Thursday night, almost exactly one year ago, Joe Burrow's 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:17.320 fourth NFL season came to an abrupt end when he 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:21.799 tore a ligament in his right wrist. Tonight, Joe returns 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:23.720 to the scene of that injury. 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:24.160 M and T. 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:27.680 Banks Stadium here in Baltimore, looking to lead the Bengals 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:31.720 to a season altering win over the Ravens, and it 0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:36.160 is time for the pig skin to fly in prime time. 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:38.680 First and goal from the one, the Bengals lineup in 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:41.760 an I formation. Burrow hands it off to Chase Brown. 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:46.480 Brown runs into the end zone, standing up. Touchdown Bengals 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:48.959 to begin the game. Four down linemen in the game 0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:52.000 for Cincinnati. First in goal from the sixth Lamar in 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.359 the gun. He runs a design quarterback right now. He 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.640 floats it into the end zone and it is caught 0:02:56.639 --> 0:03:00.359 by Agalore for the Ravens touchdown. Look like it was 0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:02.480 going to be a run all the way, and then 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.480 Lamar pulled up, floated a pass into the end zone 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.880 and there was nobody close to Nelson Agaloa. Three receivers 0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:11.600 go out to the right, Kasiki Hudson and Yosi Boss 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.800 Jamar chase out to the left. Two defenders on Jamar's side. 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:19.280 Burton Burrow rather rolling right now, he throws caught right 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:23.119 at the goal line. It is a touchdown. Tanner Hudson 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:27.679 with an emphatic gronk like spike. As the Bengals have 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.680 taken the lead with thirty seconds left in the half. 0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:34.000 Burrow will look to throw. Moving to his right now 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:36.200 he throws over the medline. It's coming to run. 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:38.640 Chase of the forty five, angling toward the farce on 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:44.800 in a thirty twenty fifteen ten five boo touchdownwn Jamar 0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:47.080 Chase does it again. 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:50.400 He's dancing in the back of the end zone, turning 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:54.280 a short pass over the middle into a sixty seven 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:58.200 yard highlight. Burrow catches the shotgun, snap gives it to Chase. 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:01.760 Brown again fights his way forward thirty one. The ball 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:06.360 comes out the Ravens habit. They recovered at the thirty 0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:10.480 one yard line, first and goal inside the one. Jackson, 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.400 under center, hands it off. Derek Henry, trying to bounce 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:14.000 it wide to. 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.040 The left, lurches. 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:18.479 Forward and carries the ball over the goal line for 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:21.600 a touchdown. The Ravens snap it quickly, Lamar Jackson to 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:24.719 throw his pass caught for the first down. Wallace gets 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:31.000 away running down the sideline. He's still running thirty twenty ten, 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:35.680 coasting into the end zone for an incredible eighty four 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:38.040 yard Baltimore touchdown. 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.279 Damn Taylor Britt doesn't make the tackle. I mean he's 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.400 in good position. Yeah, and Logan Wilson tries to push 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:46.359 amount of bounds, but he had he was out in 0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:48.120 front of him too far and he couldn't get a 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:49.359 good enough piece of them. 0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:52.919 Lamar catches the shotgun snap short drop, looking floating it 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.479 for the end zone, Andrews with a catch touchdown. The 0:04:56.560 --> 0:05:00.320 Ravens Burrow back to throw guns it deep down your. 0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:03.120 Chase is open, catches at the thirty for the field 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:09.279 ten five touchdown, seventy yards as Jamar Chase is putting 0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:12.840 on one of the great shows in Bengals history. And 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:17.560 on another one play drive, the Bengals have a chance to. 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:20.599 Tie it with a bad or go for it to 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.120 try to take the lead. I see Evan McPherson on 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.560 the field third down and goal from the five. He'll 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:28.799 checks in at running back. Lamar catches the shotgun snap 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:32.599 looking back pedaling, rolling to the left, throws into the 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:35.920 end zone, and he floats it into the hands of 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.599 her shot bateman for the touchdown. One minute and forty 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:43.320 nine seconds to go from the five yard line. Burrow 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.920 catches the shotgun snap, he throws it into the end zone. 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:49.359 Chase Boom makes the catch on the back line for 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:50.640 the touchdown. 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:52.600 And it looks like the Bengals will go for two 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.640 with thirty eight seconds to go to try to win 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:56.080 the game. 0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:59.159 Baltimore felt like they had him double coverage and he 0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.200 goes to the back of the end zone that Joe 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:04.000 Burrow throws the ball where only he can make a 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:05.240 play on the ball. 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.080 The game comes down to this play, a two point 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:11.279 conversion try with thirty eight seconds left in the fourth quarter. 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:15.280 Cincinnati down thirty five to thirty four. Burrow in the shotgun. 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.200 Two receivers to each side of the formation, sample in 0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:21.480 the backfield to block. Burrow is ready, extends the hands, 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:26.359 catches the shotgun snap looking through incomplete for Tanner Hudson 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.479 at the goal line. There is no penalty flag down 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:33.640 and Cincinnati is going to lose by a point in Baltimore. 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:38.799 The final score thirty five thirty four. In two games 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.719 against Baltimore this year, the Bengals scored thirty eight and 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:46.119 thirty four points without a win. In Game one, Joe 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:49.000 Burrow threw for three hundred and ninety two yards and 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:54.640 Jamar Chase finished with one ninety three receiving. Incredibly, they 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:58.360 topped those numbers on Thursday, as Burrow threw for four 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:03.520 to twenty eight and four touchdowns despite thirteen quarterback hits, 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:08.200 and Chase came up two yards shy of his franchise 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:11.880 record for receiving yards in a game with two sixty four, 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:16.800 including three touchdowns. Add it up and you get eight 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:20.560 hundred and twenty passing yards for Burrow and four hundred 0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:24.200 and fifty seven receiving yards for Chase and two more 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:28.240 wins for Lamar. Jackson, who is now ten to one 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:33.360 is a starter against the Bengals. Here are Jamar and Joe. 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.000 Every time we play Baltimore is a high fight. It's 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:39.280 always a dog fight with Baltimore, and the game's always 0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:39.720 close to end. 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:41.360 So we just got to learn how to put it away, man. 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:44.760 Yeah, we just got to make the opportunities that are there, 0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:48.200 make the plays. You know, we did in spots and 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:51.440 we didn't in spots tonight, and that's the story of 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.200 our season. So I'm going to do everything in my 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:58.560 power to continue to be ready for the opportunities that 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:01.160 come try to take advantage of them. 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:04.400 I'm pissed off, of course, but you know that's game 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.160 of football. You know what I'm saying, sometimes we don't 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:08.680 get what we want, but we've got to come out 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:11.720 next drive and execute it. Hopefully we do better than 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:12.280 we did last time. 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:14.280 Everyone's going to talk about the two point play, but 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.960 we had plenty of other opportunities to on both sides 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.440 of the ball to put ourselves in better position. 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:23.320 I don't know, we didn't have some tough losses this year, 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:28.320 all close games. I don't know. I think we just 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:29.400 got to find a way to finish. 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:30.120 We've been doing this. 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:32.760 Every loss we had, we didn't finish, So we just 0:08:32.760 --> 0:08:34.320 got to find some type of way to finish. 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.280 You know, your record is what your record is, and 0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:38.800 you are what your record is. So we're four and 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.320 six football team right now, and it's gonna be an 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:45.120 uphill battle to get back into this thing. But you know, 0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:47.720 I like what we have in the locker room. I 0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:50.480 like the coaches that we have up there, and so 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:52.280 let's keep plugging along. 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:54.840 When you toss in the Washington game in September, the 0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:57.840 Bengals now have three losses this year where they have 0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:01.840 scored thirty three or more or points. I spoke to 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:07.280 Ted Karrits about another squandered opportunity ted unfortunately. I think 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:10.320 he used the phrase earlier this season, the all most 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:13.680 games or something like that, another one of those games 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.800 where he basically did everything but pull it out. 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:20.400 Yeah, Ravens. Give credit to them. They made one more 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.080 play than we did. And that's what it comes down to. 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:25.200 The National Football League. I thought we left some stuff 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:30.800 out there, but overall, I mean, well it it sucks 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.680 because we're kind of we're at there at the losing 0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.400 end of some all time classics this year, and that's. 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:38.559 That's a shame. 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:41.400 So we're gonna take a take a long weekend and 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:45.520 get ready to go to LA still in the mix, 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:49.400 obviously losing to our big rivals by you know, last. 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:51.760 Plays in the game two times in a row. 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:56.800 His his heartbreaking. But we hat out of ball, left 0:09:56.920 --> 0:10:00.160 with seven games left to seven left to try and 0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:02.160 do something, So we got to go out and beat 0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:02.400 l A. 0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:08.000 How significant was the fumble in terms of momentum, Well, I. 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:12.680 Think that if you boil down the game too, you 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:14.560 know what, what is the difference in the game. I 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:17.880 believe we had one turnover and they had zero. I 0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:19.920 think we have you can count the fourth downs as well, 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:21.880 or just one fourth. 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:22.440 Down that we miss. 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.679 But I mean that's again, in a in a league 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:31.520 with such a such a thin margin for victory, you 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:35.800 know that that'll cost you, and especially with you know 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:38.800 how our defense was playing to give them a short 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:42.400 field and let them feel some confidence when really they 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:47.560 weren't doing anything all day. So you know, you put 0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:49.120 that in, you know, one of the big moments of 0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:49.480 the game. 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:51.760 You know, it is what it is that it happens. 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.800 But uh again, those are kind of the things that 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:58.359 that cost us in a thirty five thirty four heartbreaker. 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:00.959 It's almost hard to build. You have to score thirty 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.360 eight in game one and thirty four tonight and not 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.640 come away with a w either time. Joe passed for 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:10.160 four hundred plus Jamar just missed the franchise record for 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:13.520 receiving yard. You did so many good things. I can 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:16.280 only imagine how exasperating it must be to not walk 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:17.520 out of here with a victory. 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.240 No, Dan, I never feel exasperated. 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:24.280 Football is. 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:35.520 Such a unique thin line of performance, and one of 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:40.600 the great things about it knock on wood until they 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.960 kick you out. You know, you get up again, and 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:46.040 we got it. We got an opponent next week. 0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:46.079 So. 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:52.600 Yeah, it sucks, and you know, I feel for the guys, 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:55.319 and you know, I think the guys are ready. I 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:59.240 think the guys know what we can be and we're 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:03.600 sitting at for me and you know that's that's not 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:08.600 good enough. But it's been it's been some heartbreaking losses. 0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:12.120 So I don't think anyone's going to let that affect him. 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:15.400 You know, it's a clean slate come Monday, So we'll 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:18.840 watch everyone else on the hot seat this weekend and 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.319 get ready to go and play a play an LA 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:23.640 team that's kind of vying for the same spot we are, 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:24.440 so big game. 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:29.080 Appreciate your time. Thanks Thanks Dan As for the defense, 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:34.280 Baltimore's first seven drives featured five punts and only one touchdown. 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:38.400 Four of those drives were three and out, but after 0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:41.160 Chase Brown's fumble gave the Ravens a short field and 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:44.200 led to a thirty one yard touchdown drive, the Bengals 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:48.200 defense simply could not stop Lamar Jackson. He finished with 0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:51.680 two hundred and ninety passing yards, four touchdowns, and no 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:55.679 picks for a passer rating of one forty one point four. 0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:59.880 For the season, He's got twenty four touchdown passes two 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:05.000 interceptions and an NFL Best Passer rating of one twenty 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:09.680 three point two. I discussed the defense with safety Jordan Battle, 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:14.600 who finished the game with seven tackles. Jordan, can you 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:17.880 describe the emotions you guys are feeling right now after 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:18.560 a game like that? 0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:23.719 Yeah, tough. When we play tough teams, you know it's 0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:27.600 gonna be a sixty minute battle four quarters, especially in 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:30.560 the AFC northwal against the Ravens. You know, we gotta, 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.240 you know, we gotta come out of the second half swinging, 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:35.560 which we did. We did early on the third quarter. 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:37.240 We got up on them, got to stop on defense 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:38.880 and then went right down and scored a touch. Now, 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:42.200 but we's got to work on work on finishing, closing, 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:45.480 closing opponents out and flight. Today we didn't do that. 0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:48.920 I mean obviously, you know we uh, you know, too 0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:52.160 many exposers in the second half and then turnover. 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:53.520 So you know, we gotta we gotta keep the ball. 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:55.520 We gotta take the ball away as a defense and 0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:58.440 uh just just be just be playmakers and game changers. 0:13:58.920 --> 0:13:59.720 As a team. 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.560 You held him under one hundred rushing yards. It ended 0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:06.280 their streak of forty two consecutive games with one hundred 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:10.200 or more, so you made them somewhat one dimensional. But 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.160 when that one dimension is Lamar, I mean he's such 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:14.000 an equalizer. 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:14.400 Yeah. 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:16.360 Yeah, he's a very explosive player. 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:16.600 You know. 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:19.480 Obviously when we got him in the backfield, we gotta 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:21.840 gotta get him on the ground. And we know as 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.680 a GBS at as these as dbs, when he gets 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:26.600 out of the pocket, we got a plaster. We gotta 0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.720 get on our guys and uh, stay stay connected and 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:31.880 stay locked in on him. And when they catch the 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:33.640 ball and may tackles, you know, get him on the ground. 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:35.560 You know, stay to down, stay to stay the drive. 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:39.960 And I feel like it's like, uh, when we all play, 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:43.000 we play against the quarterbacks like like like Lamar or 0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:46.280 you know any any guy who are doing versatile you know, 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:48.840 and uh, and you can do both things, can run 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:51.280 and pass. We gotta stay stay locked in on our keys. 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:53.960 Rust Lane's uh And like I said, plaster. 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:59.560 I don't thinkers did that much. But Tylan Wallace of 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:01.920 all people wind up having a big game, including that 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:04.480 tightrope job down the sideline for the eighty four yard 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:04.760 t D. 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:07.320 Yeah, yeah, that's that's exactly what that's what That's what 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.000 I'm talking about. Just just get guys on the ground 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:12.160 when they when they make a play like that in 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:16.160 the flat or anything. But you know, sometimes just the 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.160 you know, the guy we don't expect. We did a 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.360 good job to day on They flowers a good job 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.160 today on you know, all the rest of the guys 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:24.680 think Mark Enji's probably have. 0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:25.760 One touch down. 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:28.920 Yeah, one touch down. We do too bad on Mark. 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.880 But uh, you know, as a defense, just gotta you know, 0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:33.920 they get to start for office that they need just 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.600 at one stop, you know, because every game has came 0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:38.560 down to you know, every game that we lost just 0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:39.080 came down. 0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:39.560 On one play. 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:43.760 And you gotta focus on, you know, dominating teams, you know, 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:46.000 getting up, getting them up, getting up up out of 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:48.200 there early, you know, and keeping off flow in your neck. 0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:49.360 Coming into the second half. 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:52.520 You're four and six with seven to go. Probably should 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:56.120 have beaten Kansas City, could have easily beaten Baltimore both times. 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:59.000 Is it agonizing could be in this position when you've 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:01.320 shown your capable of beating anybody. 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:06.600 Yeah, yeah for sure. Still got still got what three 0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:10.200 three division games to go, so hey focus on one 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.440 of those, you know, and we were right back in 0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:15.880 the mix on so you know, and then the goal 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:19.120 right now is, you know, see Cee Ravens again and 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:21.840 the AMC Division. Let's a go, you know, go in 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:23.960 the street, win as many games as we can get 0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.440 in the playoffs, you know, go from there him and 0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:29.520 make sure by that time we're locked in on closing 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:30.880 games out, closing opponents out. 0:16:31.240 --> 0:16:36.320 Jordan, appreciate your time. The Bengals only managed one quarterback 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:41.240 hit on Lamar Jackson and did not have a quarterback sack. Now, 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:43.840 let's hear from Zach Taylor, who spent a few minutes 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:45.000 with Lap after the game. 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:50.200 Coach, I mean heartbreaking, to say the least. And when 0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:52.280 you get a good look at that two point conversion, 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:55.360 they're holding the hell out of GASICKI. Joe gets hit 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:58.360 in the face. I mean, they could have made calls 0:16:58.400 --> 0:16:59.960 to give you another shot at it. But I mean, 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:04.240 and that's water over the bridge or on the bridge 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:05.720 or whatever the hell it is right now. But I 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:11.440 mean that was just another instant classic football game. 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:13.840 Yeah, you just you know you're gonna win the game, 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:16.800 and you go down there just expecting, even down seven, 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:18.399 that we're gonna score and get the two point version 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:21.520 and go away winners. Sick to your stomach when it 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:23.000 doesn't work out that way. We've had a lot of 0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:26.639 these this year and got time to turn around. It's 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:28.719 a good football team that's in that locker room. They 0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:32.480 believe in each other, They fight to the last second. 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:34.200 We got time to turn this thing around. 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:38.200 The two quarterbacks were ridiculous again tonight. I mean the 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:41.120 numbers that they put up, it's just it's incredible. I mean, 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:46.040 Joe Burrow, I don't think there's a competitor that's more 0:17:46.040 --> 0:17:48.399 intense than any sport than Joe Burrow is. 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:51.560 There's no doubt, you know. It's or thankful he's our quarterback. 0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:53.440 He gives this chance to win every game we play. 0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:56.720 Made some tremendous play tonight, and guys around him stepped 0:17:56.760 --> 0:17:59.600 up as well and just came up with. 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:03.000 A short Jamar Chase. I mean, he's had big game, 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:07.400 big games against the Ravens. This one was as big 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:09.400 as any of them, and he was unbelievable tonight. 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:11.159 Yeah, he's an unbelievable player. We got to find every 0:18:11.160 --> 0:18:12.960 which way we can to get him the ball because 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.920 every time he gets it, something electron lying happens, and 0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:17.960 this this game was no different tonight. 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:20.879 We talked about it in the pregame show. You know, 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:25.040 turnovers this football game. It's like, man, you can't give 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:29.439 away a possession, give them another possession. And that's what happened. 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:32.240 I mean, Chase Brown had the unfortunate funnel that was big, 0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:32.719 wouldn't it. 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:34.920 This game always comes down with the turner battle. You know, 0:18:34.960 --> 0:18:36.520 it's always a one score game, and whoever won the 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:38.960 turner battle wins the game. And fortunately that's the way 0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:39.440 it turned out. 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:43.440 So, I mean what it was, it was a Charles 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.280 Dickens special. I mean the Bengals in the first half 0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:49.560 just every phase, I mean dominated and then in the 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:52.360 second half, you know, the script flipped there a little bit. 0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:55.960 Was it adjustments they made? Was it just mistakes that 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:58.359 you guys made or was it a combination? What do 0:18:58.440 --> 0:18:58.720 you think? 0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:03.119 I mean, we gave him the short that the eighty 0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:04.879 something yard run. You know, we just got to get 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:06.119 him on the ground, get Hi out of bounds, get 0:19:06.160 --> 0:19:08.240 him on the ground. So those two plays gave him 0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:11.200 life and and unfortunately, you give a good team of 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:12.720 life and they're gonna fight you. And then it just 0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:16.080 went back and forth from there, just weren't able to pull. 0:19:15.960 --> 0:19:19.200 Out two to one score drives by Jamar Chase and 0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:22.880 the same game, two of them. It's like you said, 0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:24.800 they had they had the big play. So I mean 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.240 explosives there are always a big deal in this matchup 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:28.360 as well, aren't they they are? 0:19:28.400 --> 0:19:31.280 And and again that's great protection gave Joe a lot 0:19:31.280 --> 0:19:34.600 of time on both those plays, and then those two 0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:35.640 guys were just in great sync. 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:40.560 So, like you said, it's it's it's obviously painful, but 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:45.359 it's not fatal. I mean this football team, the number 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:47.840 of yards that have been put up in these two 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:51.439 matchups and the number of points and the differential to 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:54.679 only be four points total, I mean, it just speaks 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:58.639 to how close these two football teams are. I know, 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:01.400 you didn't win either football game, but could be two 0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:02.480 and all against these guys. 0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:04.280 Yeah, we're not, though, So we got to figure out 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:06.280 a way to make up for these wins, you know, 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:07.960 and get back in the thick things, which which I 0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:13.159 fully believe you are. There's unwavering confidence amongst these coaches 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:14.920 and players that we're going to be there in the end. 0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:17.800 Might look a little sticky, but what We're going to 0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:19.679 get there, and we got plenty of time to do it. 0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:22.080 A lot of division games, I mean this was one 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:24.040 of the four in the last eight games, three in 0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:25.760 the last six, two in the last three. I mean 0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:28.320 a lot of your division games are toward the toward 0:20:28.400 --> 0:20:30.439
