It's time to lift the playoff curse! Protecting Burrow v. Raiders rush & fixing toxic trait

Author: The Athletic January 11, 2022 Duration: 54:44

Saturday is the day! Can the Bengals rid themselves of the playoff curse that has tormented them for decades? Paul and Jay hit on a pair of major factors that will impact Cincinnati's chances at victory in the Wild Card. 1) The age-old question remains: Can the Bengals' front line keep Joe Burrow clean, particularly versus a ravenous Raiders rush? 2) Cincinnati has, seemingly, erased their toxic trait, turnovers. But, can they be the aggressors and force Las Vegas into mistakes? Mo Egger jumps on the show to discuss Saturday as a momentous occasion in Bengals history. Can the club live up to expectations and shatter their curse? Plus, Jay has sack and turnover stats, and an RPB to wrap up the show.
