It's a surprising number. That's definitely a Cincinnati line.

Their OL is pretty shitty too and Burrow isn't much of a threat with his legs, so our pass rush should have a pretty big impact.
As long as Rush can avoid being a moron (i.e. not bobbling around a bunch of handoffs and fumbling as he slides) it should be a pretty close game.

They're going to go far because the NFC is a shit show but to me they're a clear tier below Detroit, Buffalo and I guess KC (out of respect but they kind of suck).
Their defense is legit and Barkley is having a career year, and that's enough in a conference that is generally shit, but as soon as the wheels fall off Barkley (next year, just like with McCaffrey this year) they'll be back to a 10-7ish type team.
Especially with Moore's shit offense which is currently being bailed out by Barkley having an all-timer type of season.

That's the thing, our offense isn't going to keep up with anyone who can put points on the board.

The NFL in general feels really weak and wide open this year.

Which like Simp said earlier, made it especially great timing for Jerry and Son to punt on this year.
Freaking morons.

Yep, the good news for us is that if our dumbass FO actually tries to improve next offseason I don't think the NFC will be much better next year.
Detroit is likely losing both coordinators to HC jobs, the Eagles will fall back after Barkley regresses due to getting 450+ touches this year, Minnesota and Washington are mirages, and Atlanta/Seattle/Arizona are all just kind of meh.
Green Bay is about the only legit team that I could see continuing to ascend going into 2025, Detroit and Philly will still be solid but they'll be more like 10-11 win teams than 13-15 win teams.
The AFC should get better with teams like the Chargers and Broncos ascending with Buffalo, Baltimore and KC holding steady, plus potential bounce backs from someone like Cincinnati, but the NFC should still be relatively weak.
Let's hope these fucks can pretend like they care for an offseason!

Not gonna happen. They’ll drone on about how they have to pay Parsons and try to rely on the 2025 draft class to get better

I'm hoping that they've been shamed into placating the fans with one half decent FA move or two, but knowing them that's probably unlikely.

New offensive scheme and OL coach will do that.

I know, but is that going to fix everything? Now I'm confused.
(Especially that coming from booze)
