Couldn’t agree more, these playoffs have been a real treat
to bad its all scripted !!!
@@bradbixler1801 and you would script the bengals to the superbowl because?
@@dannyquilter8366 Because it makes for one hell of a story!
@@Sammy_X7 story is irrelevant. It's about who would get the highest ratings. Which would be KC and Tampa again
@Bud Mangeski Let's go Brandon!
I’m so happy for the Bengals and their fans. As a lifelong Bills fan I’ve always rooted for the bengals and browns if the Bills were out of contention. We have similar fanbases from similar rust belt cities. I hope they win it all in two weeks
Bills fans have always been classy. I hope you guys never change. Who Dey! 🐅🐅
Also have both had star running backs who no whyte girl is safe around.
Not to mention being "small market teams", thats what is so exciting about this. Im dying for the Bengals to go to LA and shock the world in front of God and the rest of Hollywood.
@@benvmiller Hope …………
@@TheAztec010 Sorry, fixed it for ya
Couldn't be happier for the Bengals and their fans. It was a pleasure watching them win yesterday. Hope they finish the deal in two weeks.
Bengals fan all of my life and I've waited 34 years for this to happen again! Joe Burrow is the man!
I have always liked Rich Eisen.... he's a total class act!
Not in Cincinnati. Just another bald network no name
Some of the best playoff games I’ve seen in a very long time.
Long time Chiefs fan here saying congrats to the Bengals & their fans. Their success is good to see & I hope they go all the way.
When people look back and happen to watch this entire season of The Bengals they will realize it was among the most exciting seasons of football of any team.
As an LSU fan, believe me… I completely understand your sentiment.
This is why I keep saying there’s going to be a 30 for 30 about this season. From the off-season pick ups, the doubters, Chase’ preseason, Burrow’s comeback, kicker calling the win before the kick… It’s been so damn fun.
@@ryanpyoung33 oh, this season is 30 for 30 material
@@cosborne06 I wasn't even born the last time we won a playoff game till this season and I tell you it was a painful decade to watch us sputter out and fall short. But this is it.
Not really… it was pretty much standard. Bengals Playoff were exciting though. That one is true.
“Joe Burrow is a unicorn” LOL I love it!
as a Bengals Fan this was an amazing watch. Thank you Rich Eisen for love you're showing for this team.
As a lifelong Bengals fan, I'm still in disbelief. I just wanted to win a playoff game this year.
All I wanted was one playoff win too. Just one. This is crazy!
Dream big. Burrow is legit. Get the man an oline and ya'll will definitely win Superbowls, with an s. Otherwise Andrew Luck 2.0 in the making.
I’m not a Bengals fan, but I’ve been rooting for you guys this whole playoff run. You deserve it!
I had the "six to eight wins" projection for the Bengals, until after the Week 7 game against the Ravens. Even though the rest of the schedule looked like a gauntlet, the ceiling went to ten wins and a playoff spot. They're definitely ahead of schedule.
So so happy for you guys. I’m 55 and had tears in my eyes and I’m a Brady fan
....as a life long Packer fan, and being disappointed their not being in the super bowl, I couldn't be happier for the Bengals and Joe Barrows epic run to the big game...congrats to the team and their long suffering fans...
🙏✊❤️
I'm a huge Steelers fan...lifetime Steelers fan..Go Bengals!!!!!
I have been a Bengal fan for 40 years … I used to wait up until the local evening news or the George Michael Sports Machine to see Bengals highlights when they won (rarely happened) and we would get a 45 second clip … ESPN would give us 10-15 seconds …. It’s good to get the opening 🙌 Who-Dey , should be a great game!
You had me at George Michael’s Sports Machine👍
Thank you for showing Cincinnati some love. They deserve it.
No franchise that employs Joe Mixon deserves any love.
@@georgial6398 And what's weong with having Joe Mixon?
@@klondor7432 Ask Amelia Molitor, the whyte girl who rejected him in a bar at Oklahoma who he then knocked out w one punch. Broke her face. Mixon and Oklahoma had to pay her a lot of money.
Thank you Rich for your heartfelt sentiment. Who Dey!!
Absolutely right. This is the reason. The euphoric feeling! Waited my whole life for this.
Who Dey Baby!
Born in ‘89 to a diehard Bengals family. I never dreamed I’d see the day where we not only win a playoff game, but make it to the SUPER BOWL?! Pinch me lol so proud of my Bengals. Definitely not taking this for granted. WHO DEY!!
80s was the last great decade for the Bengals....good to see them back.
Rich is definitely shocked, giving Bengals the respect they deserve finally
Thank you Rich for giving us our proper credit! Everyone bets against us, and then regrets doing so….Burrow was dead serious when he said “We’re here to make noise, and we’re coming for it all” WHO DEY!
Ain’t it great?!?!? 😅❤️🐅
As a Jet fan I love seeing your team rise to the heights they are now. Gives me hope that our day will come sometime.
@@SleepyRainTrain - How long has it been for your “J. E. T. S. JETS JETS JETS”?
@@danielwade1978 too long! 10 years since playoffs and 50+ since super bowl. They are due!
How can a girl support Joe Mixon?
Feel like this won't be the last time you lead a show with the Cincinnati Bengals
Joe Burrow was sacked NINE TIMES at Nashville and didn't flinch for a second, he's the real deal.
As a Bengals fan for my entire 29 years of life I still cant believe this dream season we are having. Time for Joe and the boys to give us 1 more amazing memory and win the Super Bowl
I saw their week 1 victory over the Vikings and thought "these guys can make the playoffs, maybe win a game" i never imagined them making it to the Superbowl.
I'm a fan of Burrow since I saw him in LSU. His posture - as we say in my homecountry - when it's time for the snake to smoke is as cool and killing as it gets. With the right pieces I thought he could take Cincinnati far and really hoped he and his generation of players would be the one to end the playoff drought.
That being said, he is at least five years ahead of my best expectations for him and the team. They have many of the right pieces there already and they have guts to win like maybe no other team in the league. No game is a gimme against them, especially starting in january
@@otaviofrn_adv posture is an ohioan term
In other sports you don't see this. Every year there is a surprise team that gives their fans hope.
cause drafting is not a thing outside of the US. In soccer, it's a free market, if you're a big city like Madrid, Milan or London, you have rich owners. They can buy and sell players that started pro as a very young age.
Except the Lions fans.
Fans love variety. The old saying you either die the hero or live long enough to become the villain applies here. The Chiefs had been to the last two SB ... people wanted to see someone new get a shot.
It wasn't really that, it was just how lousy the chiefs would play but they'd get away with it. They should've lost the game to the Bills, should've been Bengals in Buffalo. The talent that team has gets in the way of the fact that they don't put in the work to be great. Cincy does.
People also hate the antics of Mahome's brother and fiancé
What Cincinnati did is incredible you can Draft the right Quarterback, you can get the right players, the right coaches, and the right executives, and go to the promise land. They did all that in two years. Yeah you can build a team in a short period of time. It takes that one special Quarterback to get an organization started
One special QB doesnt matter if the OL is bad or the wrs cant catch ect.That both OLs could not run the ball was a bad sign for both teams and qbs.
The overall team has to be good for the QB to EVER matter.
I keep telling myself that as a Browns fan and now not sure with Borrow Mahomie and Herbert Not to positive that even if we had a Russell Wilson that can happen but I am a Browns fan so we expect to be nowhere in February
The reputation with Mike Brown and the Bengals organization for all these years was that they're cheap, i.e., substandard training and practice facilities, etc. Has that changed?
@@hochberg717 Bakers a backup
@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants Matthew Stafford has entered the chat lol
As a Raider fan I'm mad we lost to them, but im glad they took out the chiefs, and hope they get their first super bowl, they deserve it.
That's respectful ,Good luck to the Raiders next yr,
Bengals fan here.
@@eastside0434 back at you, I was rooting for the Bengals
what is funny about the Bengals is, each team in the playoffs that got to play them was happy. "Oh yay, we only have to play the Bengals!" And then the Bengals beat them lol. I have been Joe Burrow truther since watching almost all of his games at LSU. The team is hot and they have a scary amount of quiet confidence. I would not want to play them.
When you see some of the greats lose in these games like Mahomes, Rodgers, etc. You can really appreciate the insane stats of what Brady has accomplished in his 20 (playinyears), 10 super bowl games. How hard it is to get back to that game.
The Bengals should be right back in this thing next year. They need a few key pieces (OL, LB among them), but...that offense is gonna be an absolute machine for years to come.
Nah. What teams have repeated except for Patriots in the 2000’s and 49ers in the 1980’s.
@@tonymanero5544 Not necessarily a lock to be back in the Super Bowl -- but right back in serious contention for it. The Chiefs were one win away from back-to-back SB appearances. That's kinda what I'm getting at here. The Bengals should be the favorites in the AFC North for the foreseeable future.
LB? They have Logan Wilson and Germaine Pratt who are pretty good Linebackers
@@tonymanero5544 packers the first 2, dolphins 2 in the 70s, Pittsburgh won 4 in 6 years( 2 repeats), Dallas in the 90s, Denver at the end of the 90s
As long as they don't get cheap, which they have historically.
So excited for the Bengals👍🏾I’m so proud of the LSU alumni’s🖤💛⚜️💜💛
Yeah, Joe is used to winning.
Couldn’t agree more! Burrow and chase representing for the bayou!
The Bengals are going to win the Super Bowl and still be seen as underdogs. Then they're gonna run it back next year, and still be seen as underdogs. The NFL, the sports media universe and the average fan needs to wake up and accept that Cincinnati is a force to be reckoned with.
Bengals against the world
PREACH. I'm picking them
Yeah, I didn't think they'd beat the Titans or the Chiefs so I don't see why they won't beat the Rams!
Actually, if they win it all and Burrow has a great game (which I fully expect), his presence alone will make the Bengals a serious contender as long as he's around. You're gonna get the respect. It's not like you guys are the Browns!
@@johnchedsey1306 Yeah, he's wrong, if the Bengals win the SB they won't be seen as underdogs next year.
This was beautiful Rich, a perfect way to describe why we love football. Its hard to win a championship, Brady is just a special case. But as a Packers fan i've experienced my great deals of heartbreak and disappointment, but that day in 2011 has still made it all worth it, the day where the Packers finally reached the mountain top again, and ruled the world. This is why we watch sports, for the miracle moments that make us forget all about the heartbreak.
Too bad for me being a Browns fan, LOL
I am so happy my Bengals won. For so many years I was embarrassed to say I was a Bengals fan and now they're headed to the Super Bowl.
Rich - When you speak, your love for the sport pours out of you. You're genuine approach is a treat to watch. Who dey!
Rich, this steelers fan absolutely respects the bengals, though for this season only
Well said Rich.
Joe Burrow is special.
Zac Taylor was doubted.
Evan McPherson is a well drafted kicker.
The city is Orange and Black
There was at least one Bengals fan wearing his jersey at the LA game…Chad Lowe. He posted his video reaction of the game winning kick to his social media page
His big brother Rob went for the Rams. 👎
@@fromthehaven94 yeah Chad is more loyal to the team of his childhood roots. Rob is all LA
Been a Bengals fan my whole life. I suffered for years and years watching this team disappoint. It's hurt and it's been hard. It's an amazing feeling to see your team, the team you love and root for and invest time and money into succeed and make it to the Suoer Bowl. Joe Sheisty is already a legend in Cincinnati and don't think this is a 1 and done. We coming to WIN the Super Bow not only this year but every year Joe Brrr is our QB I think we gave a legitimate shot to win it all. Who Dey!
Burrow did not leave OSU empty handed he also left with a bachelors degree and when he was done at LSU he walked away with his Masters degree so the kid is also smart
RE Accurately reflects in his voice how I feel. Stunned, a cautious belief, and contagious excitement.
Probably one of the most beautiful set of words said about the Bengals I’ve ever heard.
Thank you so much for the respect you showed our Team. Joe is one special person but the whole team is special.
Yes! I loved that he sort of quotes Parcels in his opening. "This is why you lift all them weights, this is why you do all that sh*t"
As a Saints fan, feel very happy for the Bengals. Happy for Tre, Von and even Eli. But more than anything happy for Burrow. He came back stronger than never after blowing his knee. The kid’s special.
NFL teams stories are some of the greatest life lessons in my opinion. Every year something exciting, sad yet motivating happens! I love it so much!
As a patriots fan I want to congratulations to the Bengals and the LA rams 🐏🙏for going to the super bowl game. I hope whoever wins 🏆the game that these players enjoy your moments because you have earned them 👍. Good luck to both teams
🙏Thank You Robert , You know the Feeling more so , Than Us whom have never reached the Penultimate , Great respect Bro!
So happy the Bengals made it to the superbowl! Congrats!
Thank you, we do deserve to enjoy these next two weeks and the win to come in LA.
Thank you Rich, that was awesome. Thank you!
Thank you Rich.. I was in college in Athens, Ohio when Burrow played HS ball. I can't believe that I saw him play then, and now the Bengals are here. I was two years old the last time the Bengals were in the Super Bowl. I've cried happy tears three weeks in a row now.. let's make it four. WHODEY
I'm happy for everyone involved and all possible scenarios. Stafford deserves it more than just about anyone that's every played, and if Cincy wins that team/city and these players deserve it too.
As a TB12 fan, I see TB12 in JB9. I won' hesitate to start watching JB9 and Bengals if TB12 retires.
Love this program. It’s the cream of the crop.
This year's playoff is the best. So many great games without lam games. Many underdogs won. What a great year.
I'm happy to see the Bengals and the fair city of Cincinnati make it to the Super Bowl. I have no rooting interest in either team except that I am an AFC guy.
But this seems like a great match up and I hope that whichever team that comes out of it with the Lombardi does it showing their best and we have a SB with no controversies.
Thanks Rich! You're a class act my friend.
One of the best football programs going. Rich is amazing
With the exception of Los Angelos County and Detroit, the whole country is rooting for the Bengals!
This Bengals roster is stocked with talent. This team is primed to be very good for many years to come. The NFL just woke up, and is taking notice of the Bengals.
WINCINNATI BABY!!! CAN'T STOP THIS GLOW!!! 🔥🏆
Part of the reason the fans wanted Kansas City out was because the media treats Mahomes like he's the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Is such great traditional quarterbacks in they're not even in their prime yet
Thx you Mr Eisen
I'm a life long packers fan but will say I am so happy to see that Stafford is finally getting his chance in the Super Bowl. Rich, your show is the best! You have such passion and love for the game it is awesome, I really enjoy listening when I can.
I feel like Joe needs a movie about him. He's a great QB!
Man, you nailed it Rich.
Very well said
"This is why you lift all them Remotes"!- this is why we watch Rich Eisen 💣🤣💪
Look at this year super bowl teams and winner of last year. If you don't have the QB right, you can forget it.
"Like Leon from Airplane" lol
This has been the best NFL season to date. Fight me.
100 percent agree
Whodey think gonna beat them Bengals. When they play in the jungle? I say Nobody!!!. I'm 45 and that song has been in my heart since I was 12.
Monsieur X , Great respect Bro , Chiefs are an Great Organization with some Great Players and Fans ! Wish You Well!
Thank you Rich, hopefully you can be talking about the Jet's in the same way in a few years. Ya gotta give us a few years at least lol. Peace and love y'all 🤟
love this show
Lolol at “the kicker with ice in his leg”
Parity isn't all bad. It has made for thrilling playoff games this season.
More parity! finally. First Championship weekend without Brady and Rodgers in a longg time
Salute to them Bengals. They defense is super underrated....to me the chiefs are missing Kareem hunt. Chiefs need a run game.
Kareem Hunt resides in Cleveland now with Nick Chubb.
I think they had seen that all Mahomes was going to do was pass .
They come out in second half shut them down.
Like what you said.
@Howard Bueker OMG I was just thinking about the browns. Browns gotta be regretting picking baker
Yes, I was saying the other day, they miss Hunt.
I think that so far this has been like a Hollywood move for the Bengals. Rookie quarterback coming back from a season long injury. Going up a against Titans and taking 9 sacks. Going into arrowhead stadium, being down 18 points coming back to get into overtime, losing the coin toss in overtime but still overcoming. Everyone is forgetting that it is the year of the tiger. Coincidence maybe? Stay safe from Newfoundland
...'and leon's getting larger!' - - -- --- love that movie moment and the reference! - - - -@ 7:08
watched the kc game and waslike they looked like they were going be blown away came back to go to the SB
The whole country wanted Bengals. Chiefs just need a little bit of humble pie is all.
Yep, Bengals are the NFL darlings w/ baby Burrow.
Both winners:
Were behind much of the game,
came from behind but were challenged at the last,
got critical last minute interceptions (one to seal, the other to start the final drive),
won by three points.
Last time the Bengals were in the Super Bowl, Rich graduated high school.
I think this is best parity the nfl has ever had and it’s going to get even better.
Bengals have that never die attitude and not one to take likely. That being said this will be best defense they have faced so far in the playoffs. Can't wait for the game.
Agreed, but I also think this is the best defense the rams have seen all season.
@@2ruthfox82 na that was 49ers defense. They were top 5 and scariest front 4 in the league.
@@2ruthfox82
I think you are right.
The last 3 games after half time they come out and shut people down.
@@bobdavidson9770 secondary D has been were most of the crucial plays have happened so far in the playoffs....I feel Bengals D is more well rounded. They just aren’t given credit...yet 😁
@@2ruthfox82
Truth!
Bengals are 6-0 as 3+ point underdogs this season. Let's make it 7
Happy for the bengals. And this is coming from a sad raiders fan 😅 but ya wow. What a game, what a story and what a GUY in Joey b!
Ickey Shuffle in the Super Bowl. Who Dey?!
Comeback Player of the Year, the question is, if MVP was awarded after the Super Bowl and if the Bengals win, would Joe Burrow have won it? The kid is amazing.
Everybody was ready to count us out every week but we kept pushing through. Honestly I think this is the Best team in the league.
As a Buckeye I despise your Alma Mater, but thank you for not doubting this team. Every pundit I hear gives way too little credit to these guys. WHO DEY!
Thanks Rich. :)
Who-Dey, man.
This has been the most unexpected playoffs imaginable after you got the wild card duds tossed out. I have to think, though, that fans of all other teams legit were cheering for the Bengals out of love for a hapless franchise who suddenly got their act together. And I also think it's essentially a coin toss as to who wins it all in the superbowl. Each team has a ton of reasons why they could win or lose. And since I'm a Seattle fan who isn't going to cheer for the Rams: GO BENGALS!!!
Also fans cheering for Bengals because of 80s nostalgia.
I'll admit...I have issues with the NFL, but the way this year's playoffs went down for me, and getting my Rams-Bengals Super Bowl...Still got a little love for the NFL, really because they're the only big-time pro football league in the country. They give me the football I crave every fall & early to mid winter. Chiefs/Rams would have been an awesome Super Bowl, but best of luck to the Bengals, so LETS GO RAMS. Good video Rich. Loved the Airplane reference! "The fogs getting thicker, and Leons getting LARGER!" LMAO Sorry to all the Leons out there.
Is this the best playoffs ever? Has to be top 3 right?
The fans won these playoffs .awesome games and some new faces in the big dance
