Thursday Night Football Review 9/13
Last nights Thursday Night football game started out quickly as the Bengals were out to prove they were coming for the division title this season. The first quarter was all Cincinnati as they scored 2 easy touchdowns, both by star Wide Receiver AJ Green. He added a third touchdown to his night early in the second quarter but that was pretty much it for him for the entire game. Bengals young running back Joe Mixon headed back into the locker room in the first quarter with an injury but returned later in the game to help bolster the run game. Mixon ended with 85 yards on the ground. On the other side of the football, Flacco was forced to drop back to pass 55 times since the run game was going no where. Flacco only completed 32 of those 55 attempts for 375 yards. The final score ended at 34-23 in favor of the home town Cincinnati Bengals defeating the now 1-1 Baltimore Ravens. AJ Green Autographed Memorabilia was jumping during the broadcast. Signed AJ Green footballs, mini helmet and UNIFrames were getting plenty of clicks.
Sundays Preview:
Its only Week 2 of the NFL and the injury bug has started. A few top QBs are questionable to play this week. Those names include Aaron Rodgers, Ben Roethlisberger and Marcus Mariota. All eyes are on Adrian Peterson to see if he has been brought back from the dead in D.C or if week 1 was a fluke. The Buffalo Bills have decided to start rookie QB Josh Allen and face off against the Jets and their rookie QB Sam Darnold. The Patriots and Jags face off in a AFC Championship rematch. The Jags look to put their foot on the gas and not let Tom terrific make a comeback this time and prove that his reign has ended. Sunday Night football heads to Dallas for a divisional battle between the high powered Giants offense led by rookie sensation Saquon Barkley and star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Both teams are looking to get their first win of the season and only 1 can walk out on top.
