Raiders @ Bengals First Round Jan. 15, 2022

[NFLfan]

Who are you rooting for? Let's talk about the game. 

[Gramz]

Family are Bengals Fan.

I gotta root for them!

I noticed Dungy picked Raiders.

 

 

[Tsarquise]

Rooting for the Raiders. Carr and the Raiders have been at it longer. Bangals are new, thus I want the Raiders finally win. They also earned their spot by beating the Colts and Chargers. (Bengals did, too)

[Gramz]

Burrow and Chase a great combo!

[Indyfan4life]

Man, how much I pine for a WR like Chase and a QB that can throw checkdowns and release the ball before 7 seconds.

They played together in college.  They could have a very good NFL run together.  

[RollerColt]

GO BENGALS!

It would be so fun to have a cocky young team like the Bengals lol  They are fun to watch.

Its not cocky if you back it up with plays.  

 

But yeah they are fun to watch.

[Tsarquise]

Well, it's obvious how this game is going to end. 

[richard pallo]

Keep an eye on Zay Jones WR Raiders.  He’s a FA.  Former Bills high draft pick.

Yeah, we are stuck in QB purgatory.

Not just QB. Our entire team lacks this swagger.

Bengals 10-3

It’s more a swagger. They play like they know they are great. Colts don’t have that anywhere on their roster.

[Gramz]

My family is there.

 

I'm watching from the warmth of my living room. 

[RollerColt]

Defensive line of the Bengals has been rabid all season. They don’t always get immediate pressure, but if the QB holds the ball they can get at them.

[waterdog]

Raiders need more game wrecking from Ngakaoue and Crosby...like he wrecked the Chargers last week. And Waller needs no more false starts.

[Gramz]

I think Bengals got this 

[Tsarquise]

Bengals can pass and rush the passer. This game is over.

I guess... They're just winning.

Because I'm still bitter

P.s. how is Jamar chase this good?!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

When you see these free agent pass rushers playing well and Ballard just sat on his hands it makes me want to scream.

It's unbelievable. So jealous. And to think, they have completely rebuilt since the last time they played us in 2018. (they even beat us then.) Feels like yesterday.

There's plenty of swagger on the Colts team

 

They just lack it at the star positions

[DiogoSales]

Bengals losing the chance to create separation on the game, saw this movie

His brother used to be on the Vikes team. They are the nephews of former QB Jeff Blake. I think Blake was a Bengals QB (and Ravens too).

That may be true.

In memory of the late forum member Gavin, this Colts forum holds one or two live drafts every year.  In two of my drafts I had Tee Higgins (2020) and Tyler Boyd (i think it was 2016). 

 

@chad72 @EastStreet Will we do it again? If so, I will volunteer to help.

Seems that TD shouldn’t have been a TD after all.

I'm gonna take a break before I commit lol...

I'm sure my current sheety attitude will pass well before draft time :-)

I'd say the chances are high though

Zay Jones playing big

I said it earlier.  He’s a FA too and won’t break the bank.

Feels like the Raiders would try to bring him back.

You really believe that? You don't think JT or Darius Leonard has swagger? If not, what is evidence of "swagger"?

Possibly but reports say the Raiders have other pressing needs primarily on defense. So it will be interesting to see if they can do it.  They only paid him 2.5m this year.  This will be his chance to get a nice contract so I wouldn’t say it’s a given he will stay.  Could be a lot of turnover coming in the coaching staff there as well.  Money could be the deciding factor as usual.

I think we do on the offensive side of the ball outside Taylor.

[IndyEric07]

This is kinda nonsense! I remember the Raiders getting away with every single holding call against the Colts! And now they cant get away with it!

Refs have been awful throughout this game.
