Summary

Native Cincinnatian Justin Edwards (4for4, PFF) joins Thomas Emerick for the sick game that is revisiting another Bengals season lost to injury, this time the 2015 AFC wild card against Pittsburgh. But how close were they to pulling it off with AJ McCarron that day — perhaps if not for Vontaze Burfict’s illegal hit on Antonio Brown — and could Andy Dalton (thumb) have returned from injury the next week to lead Cincy in a wide-open field that season? Also, not lost is the gut punch of Joe Burrow (wrist) going down in 2023. This is Remember That Game, the podcast about sporting events that take you on a journey and maybe chart the path of the zeitgeist. I’m your host Thomas Emerick, enjoy the show.

0:00.0	Where has he been, actually?
0:03.1	How friggin sick will you be if AJ McCarron actually plays maybe even better than he did in 2015 down the stretch?
0:12.0	And you get Bengal Steelers first round.
0:15.7	How sick will you be?
0:17.1	I'll never watch another snap.
0:18.9	I'm done. I'm out.

0:38.7	senior analyst at 4-4-4 fantasy football and data for pro football focus, and a
0:44.1	Cincinnati. For anyone who says this show is just some sick game, well, here's another
0:50.1	data point. So, Carson Palmer's knee, Andy Dalton's thumb, and now Joe Burroughs
0:56.7	wrist, which one felt like the biggest gut punch? It hasn't been too long with the most
1:03.2	recent one, but the Andy Dalton thumb was really, really something brutal. That team did feel
1:09.5	like it was Super Bowl bound, or at least deep playoff bound.
1:13.6	So having him break his thumb pretty miserable.
1:17.9	In each case, right before the young quarterback's salary cap allocation
1:23.9	makes the jump for future seasons, different contract structures, but in each instance,
1:29.2	you lose that team-building edge as the quarterback gets injured. So by this 2015 wildcard
1:35.9	here between the Steelers and Bengals, Bengals who are three-point home dogs with A.J. McCarron
1:41.2	starting over the injured Andy Dalton. Were you resigned going into this about the Bengals in that championship window,
