Super stop there

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 10:24pm

The bengals get the stop which may be crucial.

paulie21 · 30-01-2022 10:24pm

Yeah surprised at an experienced coach like Reid not taking the 3 points

el Fenomeno · 30-01-2022 10:25pm

Should have just taken then FG with 5 seconds to go. Might not matter, but Andy Reid just loves a good clock mismanagement.

Xavi6 · 30-01-2022 10:30pm

Who decided to put the CBS half time show on the field? 😂

eagles fans know all about that legendary clock mismanagement.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 10:34pm

Well that CBS halftime report was a mess.

McFly85 · 30-01-2022 10:36pm

Close enough to keep it interesting but the Chiefs offense is just too good. Can’t see any way back for the Bengals

standardg60 · 30-01-2022 10:38pm

Crucial drive here again, Bengals DL need to get some pass pressure going.

Wonder will we see a turnover this half

amacca · 30-01-2022 10:45pm

I agree with Romo

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 30-01-2022 10:50pm

Bengals don't look good enough on offense so far. Plenty of time left though.

standardg60 · 30-01-2022 10:53pm

You both agree with me so :-)

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 10:56pm

The Bengals MUST come away with a TD on this drive.

standardg60 · 30-01-2022 10:58pm

That first half last play call could still be playing with Mahomes head, really surprising to see him calling for a non existent time out

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:01pm

Second flop and good on the refs for picking up the flag.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:03pm

I agree with romo and Nantz the bengals need to air it out more.

Xavi6 · 30-01-2022 11:06pm

Two big plays from Ingram there.

threeball · 30-01-2022 11:08pm

Bengals could possibly push the Chiefs here and get an unlikely win but I'd fear for them vs the 49s or Rams. They wouldn't be able to protect Burrow and they wouldn't have a run game either. Chiefs will have their work cut out via either and the Bengals are like Chiefs lite.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 30-01-2022 11:09pm

Bengals really need to capitalise on their good defensive play..

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:10pm

its an eight point game so it’s not over but their defence needs to get after mahomes.

Xavi6 · 30-01-2022 11:10pm

Oh boy, we’ve got a game now.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:15pm

burrow to chase TD.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:16pm

Game is tied after the bengals get the 2pt conversion. Oh this will be some forth quarter.

eagle eye · 30-01-2022 11:17pm

These Bengals never lie down.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 30-01-2022 11:17pm

Chiefs need to pull the finger out here.

amacca · 30-01-2022 11:17pm

Cracking comeback!

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:20pm

No they don’t and it’s what you want to see.

castletownman · 30-01-2022 11:21pm

Neil Reynolds tries too hard to be 'cool'

threeball · 30-01-2022 11:22pm

Chiefs have a really bad habit of playing to their opponents level. They manage to hang on in with a Bills team that was playing lights out. By the same token they'd just get over the line against the Jags or bears when they should really blow them away. This collapse is down to mental complacency rather than Bengals excellence.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:23pm

Good for the bengals not giving up on that sack.

eagle eye · 30-01-2022 11:23pm

Fabulous defense on the sack there, high safety moving down and somebody else going high and then switching again. They confused Mahomes there.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:24pm

Oh damn.

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:24pm

Gets away with a grab.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 30-01-2022 11:24pm

Thought the Chiefs jumped offside twice there before the pick. Got away with a (very soft) PI too.

standardg60 · 30-01-2022 11:27pm

Anyone brave enough to call a winner here?

cmac2009 · 30-01-2022 11:28pm

Don't watch sky anymore but always found him entertaining. Yes he can try too hard at times but he's usually quite witty and knowledgeable to boot. Streets ahead of many broadcasters.

standardg60 · 30-01-2022 11:28pm

Mahomes is definitely gone mentally

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:28pm

Well the bengals defence helped their offense.

eagle eye · 30-01-2022 11:29pm

Bengals D is on fire.

amacca · 30-01-2022 11:30pm

Mahomes is a bit rattled.....

amacca · 30-01-2022 11:30pm

I just don't particularly like the guy but he certainly is knowledgeable.

He seems to struggle parking a bad play and just getting on with the next one. Best in the business when things are going his way but gets flustered when he makes a few mistakes.

amacca · 30-01-2022 11:34pm

Burrow is some kind of miracle man!

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:35pm

Burrow doing a nice tribute to Eli manning from the super bowl.

Dr. Bre · 30-01-2022 11:36pm

Burrows inspired

amacca · 30-01-2022 11:38pm

Bengals mixing it up on offense

Xavi6 · 30-01-2022 11:42pm

Momentum is such a big thing in sport, I think the Bengals will win this now.

el Fenomeno · 30-01-2022 11:42pm

Where is the on-screen scoreboard and clock gone?

Itssoeasy · 30-01-2022 11:43pm

This rookie bengals kicker has ice in his veins.
