Film Room: Josh Allen’s athletic ability is key to Bills success
Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports To beat the Bills, the Bengals will need to contain their young signal caller Among the crazy-talented group of quarterbacks in the 2018 NFL Draft, Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson were the most highly debated. The pair have some similarities. Both have big arms but accuracy issues and both are excellent athletes. We will worry about Jackson later (twice), this is the Buffalo Bills week. The NFL seemed to love Allen, but many draft experts did not. He is not lighting the league on fire so far in 2019, but he has shown a spark that makes him look just as...

Bengals at Bills: Game time, TV channel, live stream, odds, picks & predictions
Photo by Joe Robbins/ The odds are pretty stacked against the Bengals as they enter Buffalo to take on the Bills. The tone is very different going into Week 3 than it was going into Week 2 for the Bengals. What once appeared to be a promising scrappy team now finds itself passed out on the floor of rock bottom. That tone was also reflected in how the oddsmakers and experts treated the Bengals this week. It is still up to Cincinnati whether they want to get back up and fight, or if they are content staying down after taking a haymaker early in the season. Odds The Bengals are currently...

Bengals vs. Bills injury report: Michael Jordan questionable; Devin Singletary out
Photo by Bobby Ellis/ Surprisingly, Jordan could play in Week 3 after being carted off the field with a knee injury the previous week. The Bengals and Bills will both be without several key players when they face off Sunday. For the Bengals, they’ll be without Cordy Glenn, Ryan Glasgow, Kerry Wynn, A.J. Green and B.W. Webb. All of these guys failed to practice this week, so seeing them ruled out on Friday is no surprise. Carl Lawson is listed as doubtful after not practicing this week due to a hamstring injury. Him being out would mean more snaps for backup lineman Andrew Brown on the...

Bengals vs. Bills: Madden predicts a defensive battle in Buffalo
We simulated the Bengals’ Week 3 matchup against the Bills in Madden 20. Prepare for a defensive slugfest! The Bengals have gotten off to a rough start. Following a close loss on the road to the Seahawks, they were blown out at home by the 49ers, whose offense looked groundbreaking against the Bengals’ lifeless defense. It is not the end of the world that one of the better offensive minds in the league was able to take advantage of the Bengals’ weakness, but Kyle Shanahan provided a blueprint on how to take advantage of a deficient defense that hasn’t improved from last year....

Should we be re-evaluating expectations for the Bengals season?
Joe Maiorana-USA TODAY Sports 0-2 teams normally don’t make the playoffs, but all is not lost for the Bengals. The Bengals have had two of the weirdest games of any team through the first two weeks of the NFL season. They went into Seattle and nearly beat Russell Wilson and the Seahawks, showing huge improvements on both sides of the ball. A week later, they look like the 6-10 Bengals from the 2018 season and lost 41-17 at home to the 49ers. There was so much optimism after Week 1 and now it seems fans are ready to throw in the towel on the season. Everyone is wondering what Zac...

Fans’ confidence in the Bengals is reaching painful lows
Photo by Ian Johnson/Icon Sportswire via It’s hard to call Week 3 a must-win game for the Bengals, but that’s what it feels like for the fanbase. Coming into the season, Bengals fans were feeling good about the start of the Zac Taylor era. After a promising performance in Week 1, confidence in the franchise was reaching levels not seen since the team went 4-1 to start the 2018 season. Unfortunately, things took a drastic turn in Week 2, as the Bengals were thoroughly dismantled by the 49ers at home, 41-17. It was one of the worst beatings an NFL team has taken this season, and...

Bengals’ Andy Dalton pleased with third-year surge from John Ross
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton is among those impressed with the play of wide receiver John Ross thus far this season.

Injury report: Carl Lawson, Cordy Glenn remain out; Tyler Kroft injures foot
And the Bengals defensive line will likely be very thin Sunday. The Bengals aren’t getting much healthier ahead of their matchup with the Bills on Sunday. The only good news (if this is considered to be a good thing) to come out of Thursday’s session was Andre Smith returned as a limited participant. He needs to get a full practice in on Friday (even though it’s mainly a walkthrough) to feel good about him starting at left tackle on Sunday (again, if that’s actually a good thing). If he’s out, the starting left tackle figures to be John Jerry (ok, Smith starting would be good...

Around the AFC North: Can the Browns and Ravens beat the big dogs?
Photo by Mike Lawrie/ The Browns and Ravens can prove they are ready to be considered contenders with wins this weekend. The Bengals may still be last in the AFC North, but at least they have company in the form of the Steelers. They will be looking to get a young quarterback’s career started off with a win. Meanwhile, the Ravens are going to be in a dog fight for a game that could mean something when playoff seeding is being decided at the end of the year. Also the Browns are playing their first good team of the season. Can they show they are ready to be talked about like...

Bengals playoff odds falling fast following 0-2 start
Photo by Lindsey Wasson/ Hope is slowly waning already. The Cincinnati Bengals were supposed to be a changed team. They started off 4-1 last season and 0-2 this season. Now, before getting all up in arms at that statement, I am aware how much better than expected the team looked after Week 1. However, many of the old habits of that plagued the Marvin Lewis-era reared their ugly head in Week 2. It was difficult to watch if we’re being honest. The Bengals allowed over 40 points to a team without a top-tier offense in their home opener. The Bengals, who had preseason playoff...

NFL Week 3: Fantasy starts and sits

This week, I’ve included a few quarterbacks to stream for this week after several prominent fantasy quarterbacks went down via injury. Other than that it seems like there could be some trouble if you’re relying on Browns players this week, while the starts are filled up with players who could have a surprisingly big game against great matchups.
