***Game Thread***Jacksonville at Cincinnati -1.5 (49) (1 Viewer)

[Ministry of Pain]

Maybe because of the CV-19 but I wanted to start the game threads a little early today in case folks want to chime in before the kickoff. 

-Fairly high Over/Under would make you believe there will be a lot of action in this game. Some folks were talking up more of a low score like 20-17. 

-There are 2 good looking rookie WRs in Tee Higgins and also Shenault for the Jax Jags, should be fun to watch both of them.

I'll take Joey B over G-Minshew today

Cincinnati 27...Jacksonville 21

How was the Burrow pass a pick?  Sample was down on his back with the ball in the end zone, simultaneous possession?  You can get stripped in the end zone?

It was not simultaneous possession. Sample didn’t have the ball when he hit the ground.

Seems like Laviska has been targeted a lot at the end of this drive before the half especially inside the red zone, something to keep track of.

Boyd hurt?

Shenault quietly 4/81, should see a few more targets down the stretch here in the upcoming 4th...could be his breakout day.

Burrow was under pressure but managed to throw it, decent toss actually and HIGGINS almost pulled it in. Would have really changed his box score for the day. 

Sitting on about 3/50 and Cinci nursing a double digit lead.

I couldn't pull the trigger on Higgins, since I have Boyd and Cinn has 4 games versus Baltimore and Pittsburgh.  But he looks great. BTW, Boyd has a TD pass called back due to a holding call.

What the eff was the point of kicking a FG down 11 on the Cincy 15 with 8 seconds left?

You want to extend the game and give yourself a chance to recover an onside kick and then orchestrate a TD. 

You might burn too much time trying to score the TD from that range and by kicking the FG, again you give yourself a chance to still potentially tie the game and push it into Overtime. 

Genius really

So I take it we can offically put a lid on AJ Green being a relevant fantasy player anymore.
