It's the way of the AFCN, friend. Any divisional game is somehow 50/50 regardless

man I'll be glad when your loving rapist of a quarterback finally retires or gets murdered on the field so that I can grudgingly respect your team.

meanwhile i desperately try not to enjoy watching suggs play

As they celebrate 50 years with their tagline "we're not just the 2017 Bengals we're every Bengals team" these first couple games have felt like a comforting nostalgia blanket. Yes, this is what being a Bengal's fan is supposed to feel like.

Yeah the Ravens playing D and running the ball 70 times a game with a qb who can't throw is kid of giving me the warm and fuzzies too

If they want to target the nostalgia center of my brain, they'd sign Kaepernick and recreate Shake-and-Blake with moonballs from Kaep to Green.

The beloved Baltimore Ravens are still undefeated against their awful, no good, quite bad, AFC North contemporaries. That turnover ratio is super unsustainable but I'm all in on this super lucky defense.

Defense might be enough to get past the Jags. Stuff's gonna get really rough in October if they can't (Steelers and Raiders back to back)

So Kizer’s “migraine” is really code for concussion, right?

The Puppy Bowl

That was my understanding.


So these are the guys Baltimore lost for the year thus far off the top of my head:

Marshal Yanda G
John Urscle G/C
Alex Lewis G

Nico Sarigusa G
Bam Bradley LB
Tavon Young CB
Maurice Canady CB
Danny Woodhead RB
Kenneth Dickson RB

Tim White WR
Crocket Gillmore TE
Dennis Pitta TE
Darren Waller TE


Everyone bolded would have been a starter or been guaranteed significant playing time. 13 seems like a whole lot of players to be down by week 3 and I still can' t help but feel I'm missing some one up there.

Funny how the coach who always gets disciplined for running extra padded practices and basically disregarding union rules always has half his team on IR by week 5.

Not necessarily. When I get a migraine I get fuzzy blind spots taking up approx. 40% of my vision for about 30 minutes, before the headache starts. Maybe he has something like that? Would be tough to QB if you can't see your receivers.

From what hue said in the post game, Kizer has a history of this.

I get the fuzzy vlinking blind spot thing once in a blue moon and didn't know what the hell it was for years because the main thing is associated with, the headache, I do not get. Even without any pain, and even while the blind spot is still small, it is extremely distracting. The best thing you can do is lie down in a dark room for a while IME.

If you get fuzzy blind spots or blurry vision and such do check with an eye doc. If there's no headache with it then there's a chance it could be a torn retina and fluid has gotten in. May lead to blindlness if not careful.

I don't really get the headache part much any more. Just the fuzzy vision, sensitivity to light, and just feeling generally lethargic. The latter two which stays around for a while, while the fuzzy part stops after about 30 minutes as I said.
What you describe is probably either migraine or ocular migraine.

While this is good advice. What I'm talking about is very different and hard to describe. For me it looks kind of like a kaleidoscope with the effect constantly moving.

I either get something that looks like a flashing crosshatch in the corner of my eye or something that looks like few swirling blue LEDs. It startles me more than bothers me.

Edit:

Through 3 weeks the AFC North as a division has won 4 times, and 3 of those wins were from within the division, the Vikings are the only team in the NFL to lose to us.




Are we the worst division?
