00:00Another dramatic scene in the football world, Bengals versus Browns. Bengals get a W 21 to 14,
00:08but just a number of things to evaluate in this one. Obviously, Sean Watson ends up going down.
00:13They're saying that it's potentially or likely in Achilles tear. So they'll be losing him for
00:19the season. Outside of that though, you got Joe Burrow, not breaking 200 passing hours in this
00:24performance 181 and two touchdowns. Chase Brown being the guy on the ground, 44 rushing yards,
00:30T Higgins with another stack performance, 82 receiving hours through four receptions and
00:33one touchdown. Browns just had a lot of things to figure out, including of course, when Sean Watson
00:39went down after the fact, it was probably just a lot for them to kind of wrap their brains around
00:44and try to get in any sort of game, but we haven't seen much great football out of them regardless.
00:48We don't have to get too much into the quarterback conversation, but maybe what did we see out of
00:51the Bengals? Cause this one was just kind of all over the place. Yeah. A lot of storylines
00:56going on on this. Not only did Watson get hurt and he's almost certainly done for the year,
01:00but Dorian Thompson Robinson, who was the backup today, not the third string where they use the
01:04backup. He also got hurt, which means James Winston had come in as the emergency quarterback.
01:08Nick Chubb made his return to the team after a year with the knee injury, leg injury. Very,
01:15very modest game from him, which is what kind of everyone expected. They weren't going to give
01:18him a big workload. This is also their first game without a Mark Cooper after they traded him.
01:22And we saw Cedric Tillman step up to play a big role along with David and Joku. And Joku is going
01:27to be the guy moving forward, not going to be Jerry Judy. Maybe Elijah Moore gets involved in
01:31more. You know, Burrow and the Bengals, their defense looks better. Granted, we have to take
01:37that with a large grain of salt because the Browns are terrible, but Burrow did his thing,
01:41two touchdowns, one to Higgins, one to chase. All of a sudden they're looking at three and four.
01:46They're looking at, you know, looking at looking back to get to 500 next week,
01:50which is not something we'd expect to see from this team after their extremely slow start. But
01:54if they can get their defense figured out, they still have one of the best offenses in the league.
01:58So cautiously optimistic. If you're a Bengals fan, I think they have some good stuff in the future.
02:04Yeah. And at least they're starting to put some better pieces together,
02:07but they got to find that consistency and get a little bit sharper in a number of ways. But
02:11what I found so surprising was Jameis Winston basically being the QB three,
02:15because when the Watson issue started happening, everybody's like, okay,
02:18maybe just put Winston in. And then turns out he's not even the go-to guy after Sean Watson
02:23goes down. So more on that in terms of what the injury report is and everything else for
02:27the Browns future. But
