Last night was an unbelievable football game. I mean, watching those two guys do what they did.

0:04.7

And Aaron Rogers, I don't know if people realize this, Aaron Rogers threw the ball 70 yards in the air on the last play of the game. I mean, it was insane. He's been doing that his whole career, and I was wondering, can he still get it there? And he got it there. He got it there. And if I were Jaylen Ram. and Ramsey and I would Joey Porter, Jr., I would burn the tape.

0:22.0

They just got lit up last night. There's no way that they could stay with T. Higgins and Jamar Chase. It was about as entertaining a football game as you're going to see. I think the Bengals had like either six or seven of their last eight drives came away with points. the way the game started with Aaron Rogers

and Fryer moved having a hell of a game himself,

And this is the Joe Flacco that we saw in 2023 when he took over for Dachan Watson in Cleveland.

He won four and one his last five during that little stretch.
