Huge TD to Loveland.

Monangai is borderline unstoppable.

My god Special Teams is brutal.

Defense is terrible. I get that Johnson and Gordon are out, but Gardner-Johnson is comparable to Gordon. So you are down one guy, the defense should not be this bad. I blame Poles. Coaches can only do so much.

Also, on 3rd and short, need quicker routes. At that point, I would've rather seen Monangai get the rock again.

Should not be getting that much pressure that fast with an extra blocker.

Monangai has 99 rushing yards on 16 carries. That is more yards than any game this season for Jeanty besides the game Jeanty had against the Bears (138 yards).

He reminds me of Jeanty, and technically is playing better than a top 10 pick. Monangai averages an extra half hard per carry and almost double per reception.

I love how Monangai is actually using his blockers, something Swift rarely does. Luckily Wright didn't get called for holding right at the end when he was trying to pull a defender off Monangai while the play was live.

Kmet literally hit to head on a defenseless receiver and no call?

Taylor finally showed his leg and booted a 71-yarder (in the air).

Yeah, he would like that one back. It looks like once he decides to run, then that is all he is focused on. He needs to be able to skip the progression sometimes, and hit the outlet before going through all his progressions.

Yeah, play call vs run call. Can't really control the outcome.

and just for comparison, the Lions have 207 rushing attempts and 204 passing attempts on the season.

10 Pass Attempts, 11 Rushing Attempts, and 2 Scrambles (Pass play), so about as close as you can get to 50/50 mix. This is about as optimal as you can get.

1 incompletion to Moore, Kmet with a drop, Odunze with a drop. Even on the Moore pass, Moore is being held, and he clearly can't get back to the ball on the dig. That wasn't supposed to be an outside throw. Moore just got held.

Monangai is really growing on me. He keeps his legs moving, and on any player other than a DT, he moves them back. On any 3rd or 4th and short, I am giving him the ball every time.

and of course Santos misses a kick, but a penalty saves him.

I love how hard Monangai hits the hole, no pun intended.

When the Bengals are returning the ball on kickoffs, they have everyone blocked. When the Bears kick off, there are at least 3-4 unblocked Bengals. How is that even possible?

Bengals have 137 Yards and a TD on 2 Kick returns.

Too many FGs the last few weeks, need to at least try for a TD. All you have to be is 50% on those and you still have better odds to win than if you only kicked FGs.

DJ Moore with a TD pass to Caleb Williams lol.

Watch his college tape, he made all these crazy contested catches, and now can't catch the ball. It is so bizarre.

Kmet drops a dot on the first play of the game. Then Odunze drops the pass from Kmet with no defender near him. This is getting old.
