the Bengals and the Browns?


is the NFL trying to drive down ratings?

reply

I live in Ohio - big deal here and I understand the rest of the country not being terribly excited but I think a lot of people will probably watch just to see how Burrow does.

reply

two teams going nowhere. fine for sunday afternoon regional coverage.

reply

Bengals are on the rise my friend! And people are interested to see how Burrow does.

Who Dey

reply

i have seen too many great college quarterbacks flame out in the nfl to get excited at this point.

reply

It happens sometimes. But Burrow looked good last week. If he gets time to throw he is very accurate.

reply

13 points??

reply

30 by games end. Bengals still have work to do for sure, D needs help ans Oline sucks, but Burrow is legit.

reply

Poor Joe - they'd better work on that O line or he'll never make it to the end of the season.

reply

Yes I agree. The Oline is rotten but that D is even worse.

If they Bengals are out of playoff contention by week 8 (which they will be) they should bench Burrow to protect him.

What's the point of risking injury to him if they don't get him help.

reply

I live in Cincinnati and while I'm not a Bengals fan, I think they are on the right path with Burrow - only time will tell.
I hope the Browns improve also and get their act together.

I have Green on my fantasy team - maybe he'll stay healthy this year - hope!!!!!!

reply

I'll stay up and watch the first half, see how Burrow gets on. Might even put 20 bucks on The Bengals to win

Who is airing this game?

reply

nfl network in the usa

reply

I don't have the upgraded package that includes that, the MLB network and other channels.

The NFL originally only ran its Thursday games on that channel, in the hopes that they could force fantasy players and others to PAY to subscribe. But it didn't work, so most of the games were shown on major networks last year.

reply

back to the nfl network this year. i think it was on cbs last year.

reply

Burrow isn't going to drive ratings down.
