Coach Talk

McCombys
Good job deploying a starting crew that won by almost 12 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we had to do.
Boomshakalaka!
Wait, our quarterback tossed two interceptions and not a single touchdown? We may need to play Monday-morning quarterback here. Were the Bengals really that strong against the pass, or did Baker Mayfield appear rattled back there in the pocket?
