00:04 Let's talk about the next game here.
00:06 We got Seattle traveling across the country to take on Cincinnati.
00:11 The Bengals are at home.
00:13 The odds are sort of telling us this is an even matchup.
00:16 Cincinnati minus two and a half, total of 45 in the game.
00:20 Is there an edge here on this one?
00:23 My gosh, Cincinnati again, it feels like one of those teams, Warren,
00:26 where I feel better about them after watching Joe Burrow last week.
00:29 But I'm still not completely convinced that this is like the Super Bowl team that
00:33 we saw from a couple years ago.
00:35 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:42 >> I think we'll talk about the defense momentarily.
00:44 That's the biggest shock to me in terms of this team not being where they were,
00:48 being able to make their run to the Super Bowl.
00:50 Offensively, Joe Burrow is going to get healthy and
00:53 he looked a little bit healthier last week.
00:54 But he's going up against this Arizona Cardinals defense that
00:58 does not rush the passer, their blitz rate is low and their pressure rate is low.
01:02 And so Joe Burrow had plenty of time to sit back there, survey the defense,
01:06 wait for Jamar Chase to get uncovered, and then have some success passing the football.
01:10 And we saw that in the rate of efficiency on plays that he held the ball for
01:14 three plus seconds was really high last week.
01:18 I don't think that's gonna be the case here against the Seattle Seahawks.
01:20 We saw the Seahawks sending blitzes with Witherspoon off of the corner.
01:24 We saw them trying to get after Daniel Jones.
01:26 And granted the Bengals offensive line in general is better than
01:30 what the New York Giants are trotting out on a weekly basis.
01:33 But I still think they're gonna be able to cause a little bit more pressure and
01:36 consternation for Joe Burrow than he had to deal with last week
01:40 against the Arizona Cardinals team.
01:43 I also think that we're gonna see some upside,
01:45 we talk about this inside Bengals defense, of Kenneth Walker III running the football
01:50 and having a little bit of success flipping the field.
01:53 Some long explosive runs I believe might be in store here for
01:56 the Seattle Seahawks offense against this Bengals defense that
01:59 is giving up rushing yardage in chunks.
02:03 Meanwhile, I think the Bengals are gonna struggle to run the football
02:06 against this defense of the Seattle Seahawks.
02:08 They rank number one in the NFL in rate of runs that gain 10 plus yards.
02:12 They allow very few explosive runs.
02:14 I think some of the mix in unders could be of interest here.
02:17 So I like the over longest for Kenneth Walker, the under longest for Joe Mixon.
02:22 And it's gonna be up to the quarterbacks to figure out who's going to ultimately
02:26 win this game in my opinion.
