Game News
Justin Herbert is throwing it out of this world today 😱 #BoltUp 📺: #LACvsCIN on CBS 📱: NFL app pic.twitter.com/3eyrr3v9B2
Jared Cook thought that play was over. If he was paying attention, he might have caught that for a first down.
Joey Bosa was cleared of a concussion, but Brandon Staley said he decided to keep Bosa out of the game because of his concussion history. "As long as I'm the head coach here," Staley said, "I'm going to be making decisions like that in the best interest of our players."
Keenan Allen has doubled his annual TD total in under 14 minutes today. His first multi-TD catch game since September 2019.
"Everybody's seen the type of team we have today... We just have to be consistent with it... all 4 quarters not 2 quarters." Derwin James discusses what the @chargers can improve on after today's win with @EvanWashburn. pic.twitter.com/NTg75fpLAX
Chase drops a bomb that would've been a TD and the ball pops to Joshua Kelley for an interception. Brutal swing there for the #Bengals
Austin Ekeler had 9 fumbles on 799 career touches entering today.
That is Brandon Staley getting warmed up. #Chargers pic.twitter.com/iU0D7Z7zAG
That catch and run puts Mike Williams over 100 yards on the day. #LACvsCIN
A lot of talk about #Chargers run D. I would be more worried about pass D. Chargers rank 17th in rush D EPA since the bye in Week 7 and 29th in pass D EPA. Biggest matchup, for me, is Tevaughn Campbell vs. (insert Bengals receiver) twitter.com/danielrpopper/…
Justin Jones with a sack. His first of the season. Only seven more to get to my preseason prediction of 8. #Chargers
And Burrow looked like he was about to hit the deep ball to Chase over the top, Chase drops it and Michael Davis picks off the ball as it pops into the air. Nothing going right on these early drives.
Uchenna Nwosu with a strip sack. Recovered by Nwosu. Chargers ball. #LACvsCIN
Drue Tranquill with a clutch sack for the #Chargers on third down. #LACvsCIN
Rashawn Slater just quietly going through his techniques - so impressed with his rookie season… pic.twitter.com/KHit4vHhFc
Burrow gets leveled by Jerry Tillery and still completes the pass to Boyd for a first down. Goodness. Burrow going for tough guy of the year out here today.
#Chargers inactives: QB Easton Stick CB Asante Samuel Jr. (concussion) S Alohi Gilman (quad) OL Senio Kelemete FB Gabe Nabers
Oh, boy. Dustin Hopkins missed the extra-point attempt #Chargers
Chris Harris Jr. interception. Now everything going right for #Chargers
Former Bengal Christian Covington got the forced fumble #Chargers
Breiden Fehoko and Joe Burrow, teammates on the 2019 LSU national title team, catching up on the sideline during pregame.
Don't see Derwin James beat like that too often. Great route from Tyler Boyd.
Bengals RB Joe Mixon has scored multiple TD in 4 straight games, the only player in franchise history to do so. He's looking to become the first NFL player to do so in 5 straight within the same season since LaDainian Tomlinson did in his 2006 MVP season. pic.twitter.com/HqtRcUPjkr
Michael Davis got burned by Ja'Marr Chase. Chase drops it. Davis makes one-handed grab on deflection. Doesn't get luckier than that... Will not be hearing any complaints about a #Chargers curse today.
How did Chidobe Awuzie intercept this?! #RuleTheJungle 📺: #LACvsCIN on CBS 📱: NFL app pic.twitter.com/knDgvNRBoX
Burrow sacked on third down to end the drive, and Samaje Perine is coming off slowly.
8 straight games with a SACK for Trey Hendrickson... a team record. #ProBowlVote + #TreyHendrickson pic.twitter.com/J6ErFFpONT
Bengals QB Joe Burrow on WR Tee Higgins saying there wasn't energy early: "I didn't feel that way. I thought in the first quarter, everything that could go wrong did go wrong."
Bengals coach Zac Taylor has been the most self-critical after any loss I've seen in his three years. When asked why, Taylor said, "It's inexcuasable, the positions I put us in."
Injury Update: No. 55 Logan Wilson has a right shoulder injury. His return is doubtful.
Bengals get a third down conversion, but the backups in at OL strike again. This time its RT Isaiah Prince with a penalty (hands to face) to wipe it off. Quarter ends. Among the worst 15 minutes of the season for this team.
C.J. Uzomah is running out on the field to check on Logan Wilson.
#Bengals inactives vs #Chargers: C Trey Hopkins RT Riley Reiff HB Chris Evans WR Mike Thomas CB Darius Phillips DE Khalid Kareem DT Tyler Shelvin
Pooka Williams hive stand up. CB/KR/PR Darius Phillips is inactive. Nursing a calf injury, but practiced Thursday and Friday. Expect to see undrafted Pooka in the mix as a returner today. Opportunity for him to seize a spot going forward.
Injury Update: No. 51 Markus Bailey has a left shoulder injury. His return is questionable.
Gotta give this Bengals defense and coordinator Lou Anarumo credit. Have completely rallied after being buckled early.
Evan McPherson hits a 48-yard field goal. Cincinnati has scored 16 straight points and somehow, it's a one-score game. 24-16 LAC, 9:53 3Q.
Germaine Pratt forces a fumble and Jessie Bates goes the other way. Herbert saves the touchdown but Bengals now in business in the red zone.
Burrow looks like he's in some pain on the sideline. Trainers have been looking at his right hand. He's throwing with Brandon Allen now trying to test it out. Think he'll be OK judging by his throws, but keep an eye on it.
Bengals need 8 points on this drive. Rookie Trey Hill with another bad penalty.
Vonn Bell gets to Herbert and holds him up and Cam Sample blasts him. It's third and 18. This place has come to life.
Joe Bachie and Germaine Pratt are your current Bengals LBs. Clay Johnston is the current healthy backup.
Week 13 inactives: Bengals without center Trey Hopkins, RT Riley Reiff vs. Chargers nfl.com/news/inactive-… pic.twitter.com/na91P4vG1Q
Would expect Trenton Irwin to handle the punt returns, with Pooka possibly getting a shot at KRs.
Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson suffered an injury on special teams during the second quarter of Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Bengals trainers used a cart to help Wilson leave the field.
Wilson picked up snaps on special teams during the game due to injuries suffered by others. He had been enjoying a strong season in his second year, his first with the communications headset in the middle of the defense.
Before Wilson went down, the team had announced that backup Markus Bailey was questionable to return with a shoulder injury. That left Joe Bachie filling in with the base defense alongside the likes of Germaine Pratt. Akeem Davis-Gaither, another starter, is already on injured reserve
