The Ravens played the Bengals way tougher than the Bills did.

In fact I’d say they played tougher than any losing team across the board.

They lacked elite level NFL offensive playmakers.

Seeing both Cincy and the Rams falling apart at the beginning of the season was kind of surreal. Yeah, there's Super Bowl letdown, but not to that degree.

Really didn't have a dog in the fight with CIN - BUF. Kinda wanted Buffalo to win, but not mad it's Cincy.

Wanted Buffalo for alot of reasons poor luck franchise with lots of good guys, everything Buffalo has been through as a city the supermarket shooting, the 2 major winter storms, and of course Hamlin story.

CBS panel basically just said it’s this year or never for the Bengals because they will lose key players due to Burrows cost.

Not sure what they're talking about. His cap hit is only $11 million next year, and the Bengals have an option for a 5th year if they want it. They will try to sign him to a long term deal, this off-season, but it will likely be structured so his big cap numbers won't hit for a few years.

Not sure what the rest of their cap looks like, but he'll still be relatively cheap for at least 2 more years if they want him to be.

I'm saying that if this score holds out, the question of whether or not Allen deserves to be called elite will be a major topic of the off-season, whether he deserves it or not. Questions will be asked about if he can win the big game, and does he turn it over too much. Is it your assertion that that is not true? That none of those things will happen? And that won't be a major topic of discussion?

Daniel Jones straight up for Allen. Who says no?

Little late to the thread but I wanted to say WHO DEY!

As a hometown Cincinnati kid, I am very excited how the Bengals are playing. That was the most complete game they've played this year. Next week should be a good game if they can keep up that level. 10 game win streak!

I predicted a Bengal win when I heard they already sold 50,000 tickets to the Bills/Chiefs game in Atlanta.

You realize Buffalo, Cincy and KC were all selling tickets for an AFC championship home game too?

Seems like the convo around Dak should be a bigger deal than Allen. He's pushing 30 and only has 2 playoff wins. Why wouldn't Dallas think about moving on?

Well, ESPN seems to keep telling everyone that Dak is an elite QB, and for some reason people listen to them.

Cause the issue is the coaching staff. Gotta fix that before you go down the road of a rebuild.

Normally there is 1 maybe 2 teams that make the league championship games I don't see capable of winning the Super Bowl. This year a case can be made for all 4. This is a great Final Four.
