    We should have a decent chance with Chase possibly missing Sunday's game, but man our defense has been plagued with injuries. Joe Burrow is going to Joe Burrow and he still has Tee Higgins to throw to.

    I've pretty much finish watching and listening to all the videos/highlights. Let's have some more positive excitement and continue this next week Texans!

    Chase seems hurt, so hopefully he'll miss next game. Burrow still has an issue with his hamstrings, but he's too good to care for some hamstrings.

    I can't keep track anymore. I know we have 14 on IR, and 1 out on the PUP list. That's a lot of bad luck there. I just hope we have a game this week where everyone can finish strongly and safely.

    Time for JR to step up and make the thread.

    Castor has already done us a solid by accepting the Texans win streak when he doesn't start a thread.

    It would be so great to take this win! Let's do this!
    DeMeco, we need to see that SWARM defense this week! Let's step it up a couple notches and shut up a few more doubters.

    Some of our best games came, not when we were healthy, but when we were stable for a couple of weeks, even with replacements. Continuity counts.

    I have no Idea what they are cooking up for Cincinnati. Once again, both teams have to decide whether to focus on fixing weaknesses or playing to their strengths.

    I think that us having almost half our team injured puts us at a huge disadvantage no matter who we play. It's going to take a lot of luck to win, regardless of which 8 players on the Bengals injured list actually play. We will need to force a turnover or two, and hopefully find ways to sack Burrows in big moments. What we can't afford to do is commit stupid penalties! I want to see us run the ball better for once! We can't expect CJ to do it all. We need our defense to step it up a notch.

    I'm not sure we suffer that much from performance dropoff verses potential dropoff. The more celebrated players still need some time and continuity to perform.
