I might wish it was Joe also and this season might very well suck but this is the NFL and it's ALWAYS next man up. Jake Browning didn't make it to the NFL by being a slouch. He wasn't half bad a couple years ago and we have a full roster not all named Joe Burrow. Let the team adjust and go week by week. Not to mention the fact that of anyone has enough reps as a Bengals backup it is infact this man shown above. Have some faith and who dey. Enjoy the week 2-0.

Remember next week Jake, they should have never f***ing cut you
LFG!
Good thing our backup would be a starter on 31 other teams
He put up top 10 stats when he played a lot 2 years ago. Shiiiiiit anything is possible in sports
He is our Trent Dilfer. In JB6 I Trust.
Thank you. There are other gritty fuckin players on our team besides JB9 and they balled the hell out today. SHAKE AND BAKE AND JAKE HELPED!
Remember when people wanted him replaced by Desmond Ridder after one preseason game?

On the positives the defense is better this year and JB6 is one of the leagues best backups. If he can clean the interceptions I believe we can make a push for the playoffs. He’ll have to benefit a lot from the talent around him. Today was promising. Eff it. 20-0 is still on the menu boys
JB6 TO THE SUPERBOWL! LFFFFFFFFFFGGGG
Who Dey!
Find a way to get Jameis Winston in here too, that would be a fun duo.
If they can go .500 while Joe is out, we’ll be good. The 2 wins now are huge. If we didn’t have that I would’ve scrapped the season
JB6
1000% with this dude
I’m worried they will trade for Kirk if the surgery happens. I’m good w/ Jake
Jake Browning is more than serviceable. We don’t need to go undefeated, we need to make the playoffs and Burrow could potentially be back. A 2-0 start helps us a ton!
Current timetable has Burrow back in 11 games, with the last 4 games being Ravens, Dolphins, Cardinals and Browns. We can easily finish that stretch 3-1.
That would make us 5-1.
So in the 11 starts from Browning we would need to be 5-6 to finish 10-7, which has a good chance of making the playoffs.
Looking at the games, there is 4 that stand out as being pretty easy: Vikings, Jets, Bears and Patriots. So if we can manage that sweep, I like our chances of upsetting one of the 7 other teams to get what we need.
The day may be grim, but there is hope!
I could live without the picks today, but he was ice cold in that 4 minute offense with the game squarely on the line
Going against JJ M next week may not hurt too much.
3-0
Bro makes 1 milly compared to joes 49 milly annually
As a Jaguar fan, I hope I never have to see this man again.
9 upside down it’s a 6 now
I fucking love you
His ceiling of play is like, Jared Goff. We’re not dead yet.
I think browning would be a legit starter on several other teams and I would argue he’s the best backup in the league. Clearly he can get the ball to chase and higgins, so I’m not worried. I think we make the playoffs even if joe does miss 3 months like some are saying.
It would be absolute cinema for Jake Browning to have career games against both Jacksonville and Minnesota in two separate seasons
I love JB!
I feel so blessed Jake Browning is still with us.
Browning to Tinsley is just as threatening as Burrow to Chase. They have to play us.
