I only caught highlights on Redzone and missed part of one play - did Apke miss a straight in his hands INT or did my eyes deceive me?

APKE THIS SEASON HAS A 54.9 COVERAGE GRADE...

WORST AMONG DB's on the team

A win is a win, it was ugly but that is to be expected.

Winner of Thanksgiving will take the division

The Giants have looked like the best team of late, and they own the tiebreaker.

The Cowboys appear to have the easiest remaining schedule.

WFT probably has to win 4 of the last 6 games to take the division, with two of those wins coming against the Cowboys and the Eagles.

WORST AMONG DB's on the team

I was disappointed that a rookie Qb was able to come in, read our D and then have his first option open for a quick throw and catch. Why were we giving Burrow soft coverage and underneath stuff?

Answer: Because Troy Apke was your starting FS with Kamren Curl.

While it wasnt pretty, and I think the Bengals would have made a game of things if Burrow didnt get hurt, the game plan worked. Give them the underneath stuff and protect Apke/Curl.

Yes Burrow went 22/34 but he only had around 200 yards passing and we somehow held them to 3/13 on 3rd down conversion. Watching the game, it felt like Burrow was on pace for 350 yds and 50% conversion rate.

Odd game to watch. Was ugly but you dont get extra points for style. This approach wont work against better talent and I dont feel good feeling like we eeked out a win vs the second worst team in the NFL.

We are a bottom 5 team who could be leading their division come Thursday night. What a strange state of affairs.

It’s a tough call, but I’d lean towards a rb with pass catching ability. RB are too hard to find as well.

Very true although I'm concerned Bryce Love would steal some carries from Gibson.

Lol....26 you are smarter than that. Love can’t even get on the field. He probably gone in the offseason

I put some of it on Del Rio. He came out with the worst game plan. Like wtf was he thinking playing way off the wr's? You can't do that against any NFL QB. Del Rio was terrible for the first half.



I had such high hopes for Del Rio. Anywhere he has gone the D has improved. Good teams or not. He always makes a difference. Here not so much. Not as much as i was hoping for....

I don't know. They were ranked 27th in the league in both total yards allowed and points allowed per game last year. This year they are ranked 6th and 10th respectively. I'd say they have improved, despite not having a normal offseason, minicamps, OTAs, preseason... That's quite a turn around 10 games into this season.
