Chiefs at Bengals

• Azubuike24

  

  This game has blow out written all over it, given how the Chiefs offense "busted out" last night against Green Bay. There is a bit of a worry containing a cutback RB like Charles and a big target like Kelce, but I think the Bengals ability to play solid underneath coverage will give the Chiefs fits. Cincy has been prone to giving up the deep ball and the Chiefs don't have a deep threat. They will need to tackle, but if that is executed better than Baltimore, Cincinnati should be able to win.
  
  Kansas City is awful against the pass and very good against the run, so expect another solid Dalton/Green/Jones/Eifert performance. Unfortunately for Jeremy Hill, this isn't the best game to get right.

  Chiefs aren't winning an away game on short rest.

  My thoughts as well. Expect bengals to continue to roll.

  Blowout for Kc? As in you think Kc will blow out the bengals?
  
  Bengals should win this game, it's the regular season.

  Yeah, count me in as another one who thinks the Bengals go to 4-0. Azu is trying to pull a "thavoice" with a reverse jinx.

  I read that as he thinks the Bengals blow out the Chiefs. I hardly ever associate the Bengals with blowing someone out, though. I think two more scenarios are likely: Bengals win by 4-8 points in an unimpressive win. Or Chiefs figure out their problems and win convincingly and because God forbid the Bengals ever just look like a consistently good team (See: Bengals - Patriots game last year after Bengals started 3-0)
  
  If the Bengals want national recognition and respect, it's time to start winning in the playoffs. In the mean time, KC and Seattle have looked underwhelming for the most part this year. Win these next two games. They have a good shot at 5-0.

  A blow out for the Bengals. Chiefs on a short week. Chiefs have no pass defense. The Bengals have given Dalton time all year. Game is in Cincy. There's no reverse jinx. The Bengals "should" win by a TD or more.

  Vegas is dirty...Chiefs will for no reason cover.....or lose by 31+
  
  Bengals 32
  Chiefs 27

  My only concern is protecting Andy. Chiefs have great outside rushers. If the pass blocking is there, I predict a double digit win.
• Heretic

  

  Bengal defense could be lulled to sleep by Alex Smith and his never-ending array of 5-yard passes.
  
  If that doesn't happen, they'll win and likely with ease.

  Need to tackle better in the open field. Charles and Kelce could get free a few times.
  Bengals 30-20.

  Secondary banged up for Cincinnati. Adam Jones, Leon Hall, George Iloka and Dre Kirkpatrick all on the injury report. Jones and Iloka very questionable for Sunday.
• friendfromlowry

  So more responsibility for Reggie Nelson. Hooray...
• Azubuike24

  

  Appears Adam Jones will play as he practiced in full on Friday. George Iloka has not practiced at all and might as well be considered out.

  Michael Johnson looking good for Cincy

  Learned something new today- Andy Dalton leads the NFL in passes over 25+ yards.
• Azubuike24

  

  Dalton has been nearly flawless thus far. And today, the Bengals are really running it well.
• Ironman92

  

  Smith looks good but no time
• Azubuike24

  

  Bengals have outplayed KC but are way too soft on 3rd down and the Chiefs have dictated the pace. The Bengals want a race. They have more and better weapons than almost anyone in the NFL. The Chiefs have limited possessions and kept the clock moving.
  
  We all know Mike Nugent is a terrible kicker and it has showed. Santos is money, 4 for 4 for KC...Nugent not even close on his attempt.

  This game looks familiar.
  
  My FB Bengals guys (and they are legitimate idiots) are saying just put 8 up front because Smith is terrible. Then I showed them his overall rating his last four seasons is at least as good as Dalton's.....that with far better weapons for Dalton.

  Is the Chiefs OL that bad or Bengals D that good?
• Azubuike24

  

  Chiefs O-line sucks. Bengals pass rush is normally average.
  
  Hell of a scramble and throw by Dalton, incredible bail out catch, recovery and TD by Tate.
  
  21-12. Pressure on KC now.
• Ironman92

  

  Atkins, Dunlap and Johnson are dominating today.
• Ironman92

  

  Chiefs defense resembles the tackling of Pittsburgh's without Shazier....maybe worse.
• Azubuike24

  

  Only 9 carries for 40 yards, but mostly it was because the passing game got all the yardage while Jeremy Hill and Gio Bernard took care of short TD's. 3 TD's for Hill.
  
  Bengals route KC 36-21, and the Chiefs kicker drilled 7 field goals.
  
  Darqueze Dennard replaced both Adam Jones and Dre Kirkpatrick (Dre missed much of the 2nd quarter and Jones missed the 2nd half) and he looked VERY good. Better than both Pacman and Dre have looked.
