00:00and we'll see you next week.

00:04You know, we're talking about

00:05right now, Dubsy. That's those

00:07Cincinnati Bengals and if we

00:08look at the first three games

00:10on their schedule, you gotta be

00:12kidding me. Opening day against

00:13the Patriots. You lose that

00:15game sixteen to ten. You're

00:16rebounded week number two. You

00:18going to grow it against the

00:19Chiefs. Looks like you're going

00:20to win. Then, the penalty flags

00:22come out and you end up losing

00:23on a late field goal only to

00:25come home against the

00:26Washington Commanders with a

00:27rookie quarterback with your

00:28team and get pummeled. I

00:29understand that game ended up

00:31Dubsy. Thirty-eight to

00:32thirty-three. It wasn't that

00:33close. Washington was the much

00:35much better team. So, now, when

00:37we take a look at the

00:38Cincinnati Bengals, their win

00:39total to open the season, ten

00:41and a half. You know where that

00:42sits now? Eight and a half. To

00:44make the playoffs, a heavy

00:45favorite at a minus 240 price,

00:47now sits at a doll price of

00:49plus 118. The AFC North to win

00:51that division came into the

00:52season at a plus 165. That

00:54plummets now down to a plus

00:56340. The Owen three Bengals who

00:58I told you all all season long

01:00were one of my fade teams in

01:02the NFL. I'm not so sure they

01:04make the playoffs. So, Dubsy,

01:06the question to you, hot or not

01:08by yourself, whatever you want

01:10to say, the Bengals will miss

01:12the playoffs this season. No,

01:14I'm selling this one, Donnie.

01:16They're going to be the first

01:17team. Wow. Since 2018, the

01:19Houston Texans, Owen three,

01:21they're going to punch the

01:22tickets to the playoffs. How

01:24could they not? They've got

01:25Macaulay Culkin. I mean, Joe

01:26Burrow at quarterback. Donnie,

01:28we turn it back to the start of

01:29the year. You told me there's a

01:31team three, you know, in the

01:32division, and there's a team

01:33Owen three. I would have said

01:34it's the Bengals up on top, and

01:36it's the Steelers as you sell

01:38as well as not so. But here's

01:39the case for Joe Burrow in the

01:41Bengals. I tell you what,

01:42they've got to figure things

01:43out or Zack Taylor. He's he's

01:44getting the road here. The

01:46schedule looks to get a lot

01:47easier going through the next

01:48four, five, six weeks. They

01:50take on the Panthers here in

01:52week four going on the road.

01:54They get the Ravens back in

01:55their building. Then it's the

01:56Giants, Browns, Eagles and

01:58Raiders. I think they could

02:00pick up four wins out the next

02:02five, and you might be saying

02:03Dubsie. What are you talking

02:04about? What have you seen? Well,

02:06the offense is looking better.

02:07I know they'll never in that

02:08game on Monday night, but this

02:10they're starting to get those

02:11reps in Jamal Chase miss a lot

02:13of the preseason. So there's

02:14always been a bit of rust there.

02:15They're trying to figure out

02:16that run game. They've got to

02:17get into the fight a little

02:18earlier to set that table fear

02:20the run. Cincinnati have not

02:22had that going through the first

02:23few weeks. I think this is a

02:24get right spot going against

02:26the Panthers. They can build a

02:27bit of momentum off this one.

02:29So I'm going to say Joe Barra.

02:30He's special. The Bengals

02:32getting set for a special kind

02:33of runs on a
