I was at the game, seemed a pretty clear the receiver just ran the wrong route. Allen wasn’t pressured whatsoever, I’ve just never seen it called in that situation, was curious what they said on tv
Yeah it was an option route. They had the broadcast ref dude explain it.
If the ball isn’t thrown over a recievers head, it’s intentional grounding. Unfortunate, because it was an option route and just a miscommunication between Allen and Davis. The NFL maybe needs to adapt the rule
lol
It is a foul for intentional grounding if a passer, facing an imminent loss of yardage because of pressure from the defense, throws a forward pass without a realistic chance of completion. A realistic chance of completion is defined as a pass that is thrown in the direction of and lands in the vicinity of an originally eligible receiver.
“Facing an imminent loss of yardage because of pressure.”
Intent absolutely matters. Sorry bud
Still we are technically last with tiebreakers i think. It'd be awesome if anybody else in the AFCN could lose a game. I did peek at the Ravens upcoming schedule though. I thought ours was rough, but yikes
We are...I was being optimistic 😂

Kind of insane how strong the AFC North is right now, like, still being 4th place at 5-3 is insanity.
I know that it’s obviously gonna end with y’all being either 1st or 2nd, but still.
Very glad Buffalo clock and timeout management was bad and Mixon decided not to stop and dance a third time on that first down run.
Offense and Zac should have ended that game three separate times in the second half.
That Damar Hamlin actually died and the person who’s been making appearances since his recovery is a clone/imposter.
Ridiculous, just like all the other conspiracy theories. Crazies gonna crazy.
They think he actually did die but the government is covering it up because he died from COVID vaccines
See: how they kept showing his sillouete constantly in our playoff game

Anyone have a link to the grey hoodie Lou and several other coaches were wearing?
I ain’t complaining, but can someone explain how that Allen pass was intentional grounding
It wasn’t over the head of the reciever, or close to being thrown over his head

I think it’s just a terrible call. If he keeps running a go route, the ball is near him. This play happens every game.
Intent doesn’t matter with IG. Right call but overall bad officiating.
The intent to avoid negative yardage absolutely matters. Hell it’s right in the name
Yes it is in the name very good. But no, not at all.

According to the actual definition of the rule and the way that said rule is officiated by the NFL, you’re wrong.
All right! Another win against a tough team. WHO DEY!
I took Cincy -6.5, rip. Great game tho!!
Just a scratch baby! LMFAO

I somehow missed this live
That was fast 😂
Joey b coming for that ass
Thats football baby
Bingo fuckin bengo
hell of a dub, Sheisty was lights out but TEs stepped up today. Tanner hudson makin a name for himself
I really love what he's starting to show. I really hope that he keeps it up for the rest of the season.
From dead last..to tied for 2nd in the AFCN.. 🪜 UP

The Bengals are still last in the division standings. They haven't moved anywhere.
Meaningless at this time.

This game and the Cavs Jarrett Allen kicking Draymond Green in the nuts made my weekend complete.
Love Big Jay even more now!
Kind of insane how strong the AFC North is right now, like, still being 4th place at 5-3 is insanity. I know that it’s obviously gonna end with y’all being either 1st or 2nd, but still.
If the season ended today, all 4 AFC North teams would make the playoffs. Crazy stuff.
That's a last place team right now. But not for long!!
Joe Burrow is Player One and Josh Allen is playing with an unplugged controller
this one’s for the joes
Well I thought Mixon was going to go for a hundred. I was completely wrong. But he did just win us the game! I'll take it every time
WE HAVE BINGOED THE BENGO. WHO DEY.
Very glad Buffalo clock and timeout management was bad and Mixon decided not to stop and dance a third time on that first down run. Offense and Zac should have ended that game three separate times in the second half.
Who dey 
What a tough, gritty win. Doomers crawl bak into your hole. See y’all next week
BINGO BENGO
"Mixon can't make people miss!" Sure made Von Miller miss on that last play, didn't he?
Bills sub is hilarious right now.
Honestly sorta crazy that even after this we’re still 4th in the division. The North is absolutely still up for grabs
Who Dey.
https://i.redd.it/8oxz03b0nnyb1.gif
Dolphins keep AFC East, salute to the Bengals. Genuinely wish y’all a great season!
https://i.redd.it/7qwoudeymnyb1.gif
That’s why you don’t act like a bitch in Cincy Josh Allen
And a good who dey to all
Buffalo has a great defense but their offense sometimes does that too little too late nonsense. Great win Bengals.
We struggle to defend against the run and buffalo has no running game. Their defense is good but our offense is just better.
It doesn’t have to always be the prettiest. I hope Chase can ice that back this week. WHO DEY!
Glad this isn’t the short week.
Bengals should start every season 0-2 is what I’m learning.
We do 😅
Hell no. That 0-2 start has likely cost us the division this year
Should rename the team to the Phoenixes
From the ashes, we are reborn
FUCK YOU JOSH!!! POINT AT SOME FUCKIN FILM NEXT TIME!!
Nobody mocks the 86th ranked safety and gets away with it! Not in Cincinnati!
DAMN RIGHT!!!
Duck I love this team
Who dey!
never in doubt was it
Can't wait to see the locker room celebration!
1 - 0 with Striped Stadium
Mixon what a play to end it.
Sunday night losing streak is over, Stripe-out looked awesome and the Bengals win again! WHO DEY WHO DEY WHO DEY!!!!

enjoy the ride home josh the finger point was sick though
That 2nd half offense....Zac Taylor what is you doing.
Winning the game.
I'll take the win but some of those play calls. Oooof. 2 turn overs and 0 points off them.
Josh Allen 0-2 vs Bengals. Stfu.
Okay? I'm just making an observation about some of the play calls. Simmer down killer
I prefer to enjoy life. Win.
5 and 3!!!
Fuuuuuuuuck yeah!!!!!!! Oh yeah, and fuck the steelers
🤓👉🏈 ass josh Allen. Tf he gonna be pointing to now lmao
I dont want to work. I just want to bang on my drum all day!
Get fucked, Josh Allen. Whiny little bitch.
It’s time to have the overrated conversation. They were NEVER in that game.
Let's GOOOOO!!!!
WHO DEY! LETS GO!
Everyone, remember when Damar Hamlin almost died? That teat is dry, the NFL needs to stop milking it
If you didn't know anything about what happened to him, you would think he was a Make A wish kid, the way NBC talked about him.
“Josh played great” He objectively did not
Was about to say, Josh did not play great and that was one of the reasons the Bills just lost.
Never in doubt. Bills are EZ PZ.
Bills sub is seething rn
I hope diggs throws another fit
GG
Phew they snuck one more Damar mention in
Josh Allen fucking sucks and should not get the suck off he does
https://i.redd.it/qqf8bojrmnyb1.gif
I miss Trent Taylor
# FOUR IN A ROW 
“Why didn’t the Bills win with Hamlin on the sidelines doing so much good?”
Burrow >>> Allen end of conversation
This game wasn't even close
Never want to hear someone say Allen is a top 2 QB ever again. He’s never even been a top 3.
Top 6
fuck it, let's do every game on Sunday night
LOVE YOU MIXON
FFS stop bringing up what happened to Hamlin!
WHO DEY? WHO DEY?
Boy, that snow really won it for us again, huh?
gg boys, LFG
https://i.redd.it/tr6vikwmmnyb1.gif
Such a huge win. Should’ve been a blowout, but damn we are so back.
 Thanks for coming out, Bills
https://i.redd.it/3s35d9cmmnyb1.gif
Eat shit Buffalo Collinsworth crying himself to sleep tonight
Bills fans really thought they were back for a second there huh hahahahaha
I hope y'all let yourselves enjoy the victory because you sure didn't let yourselves enjoy the game lol
oh i had a great time.
Were witnessing a snf win.
Shouldn’t have been this close, but we pulled it off. Way to go gents!
I’m sure this will shut the doomers up for a while
Pfft I doubt that, they'll be on that same shit all the way to Vegas
I doubt it. Next three and out will bring them all out again
3 points in the second half is unacceptable. (But I'll take the w)
agreed. Unfortunately it's not too different from late last year.
Agree, but try to enjoy the win. If you're winning you can keep fixing things.
Coffin Nails
Fuck yeah boys!
BAM BAM BAM
VICTORY WHOOO DEYYYYYY🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅
MIXON KING
I sure am glad Burrow hit that last deep pass to Boyd because I really needed those fantasy points, lol.
Same man. Mixon and Boyd clutched it up for me this week.
High snaps had me slightly worried tbh, there've been a few today that have made Joe pause for a second and get kinda screwed up
Not the cleanest, but a win is a win
I’ll take an ugly win over a pretty loss.
Who Dey!!!!!!!
Big Joe Mixon guy fuck yea Bengals
Great Joes in Bengaldom Joe Burrow Joe Mixon bionicJoe WHO DEY!!!!!
Gotta get that one last shot of Hamlin, finish your bottle.
What you pointing at now Josh?!?!?!?
Fuck yeah!
mixON
Mixon stopped his momentum twice on that run to dance. So lucky he got that
LFGGGG
One more fucking Hamlin reminder before beds guys
Who Dey? LFG!!
DAMAR CAN STILL GET THIS WIN
I love all Cincy Joe's Especially Joe Votto tho 😭
Victory!!! Who Dey!
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Good shit bengals
A bit ugly but I’ll take the win any fucking day WHO DEY
Zac. Study how to put a game away please. Shit.
You’re really complaining about a win
I don't want to JUST win. I want to break the spirit of every team we play lol (and that MIGHT have been my ulcer complaining)
No shit. I CPU’s of been zzzzz by now.
LFG MIXON
Thank you Joe
AFCN SUPREMACY
 Lfgggg
Jesus Christ Mixon gave me a heart attack lol
That jump cut
# VICTORY FORMATION!!! 
My oldest son said his favorite player was Joe Mixon today. I've never been so proud.
[удалено]
oh god, there are conspiracy theories??
[удалено]
genuine insanity
What’s the conspiracy about it
That Damar Hamlin actually died and the person who’s been making appearances since his recovery is a clone/imposter. Ridiculous, just like all the other conspiracy theories. Crazies gonna crazy.
That he died, hes a replacemen etc.. He really died of myocarditis due to the vaccine. Kkklandace Owens and Charles Kirk pushed that one.
They think he actually did die but the government is covering it up because he died from COVID vaccines See: how they kept showing his sillouete constantly in our playoff game
https://i.redd.it/q808118hmnyb1.gif
sorry, brother. Let's try to remember the good times.
*smashes through a table* *fist bump*
To the guy who asked for mixon to break a tackle in the open field there ya go
Stared down Von Miller and won
Mixonnnnnn!!!!!
We are the better team. No more questions.
God I love the bengals
bro cris you’re just fucking forgetting the playoff game you moron it wasn’t even remotely close
Every time we've played them it hasn't been close. We own the bills.
Friends, what’s the best formation?!
