Would suck for Cincy if Geno is out any period of time.

I had no idea Cinci was 6-2 and running away with the AFC North. They seemed more like a .500 team.

Bengals are good, don't put too much stock in these weird Thursday Night games.

I'm still confused about that Gresham "hold" on the Marvin Jones reception, it looked like he barley touched him let alone held him. That was a huge swing.

One of the two or three best interior linemen playing. Just a brutal injury.

I think the ref saw the same thing I did. When I watched live, I yelled hold right as it happened. Guy was only 2 feet away from Jones in the process of turning around and couldn't even get close to grabbing him when it seemed like he should have easily cut him off.

Then you saw the replay from the other angle: when he turned around he seemed to do it in quicksand and Gresham had his hand slightly grasping the jersey but the guy just turned really slowly.

Not even close to a hold but the ref saw the illusion of the d-back unable to turn around and move while Gresham had a hand out as if he was grabbing him.

That makes sense. I had the game on in the background so really only got a good look at the replay.

And wow, it seems like this has just been a ridiculous year as far as injuries are concerned. I wonder if the number of injuries is actually up or if they are just happening to better players so the injuries stand out more.

There are definitely more torn ACL's this year than usual.

Week 11 Sunday Night Football Flex - changed to Broncos/Chiefs.

It just so happened to be Packers/Giants scheduled slot, which now will move to the late game on Sunday on Fox.

Justin Blackmon suspended indefinitely for violating the league's substance abuse policy again. Talk about wrecking a promising career.

Yeah I take back what I said about putting Blackmon ahead of Jordy in my WR hierarchy. He is the 4th player I have for the year in one of my fantasy leagues.

To be fair to Blackmon, I'd be smoking some **** too if I was a wide receiver and had Chad Henne and Blaine Gabbert as my quarterbacks.

A Jets win over NO would be nice.
