Loveland, Ohio – Is it time to panic in The Jungle? The Bengals are 0-3 and Chris and Mark talk about what went wrong versus the Commanders and just what can be done for the Bengals to find their first win next week against the Carolina Panthers and former Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton. On the more pleasant side of things, the Cincinnati Bearcats blanked the Houston Cougars last week and the Michigan Wolverines beat the USC Trojans while throwing for just 32 (!!!) total yards. So sit back and enjoy, and thanks for all your support!

Bengals EDGE Sam Hubbard was 6.22 yards away from Jayden Daniels, on average, on passes tonight.
This ranked #127/128 DL charted by NGS in Week 3’s Game Center.
Incredible stat considering Daniels held the ball for 3.13 seconds per pass.
Too many problems to count on this DL. pic.twitter.com/bUbG4wV1rM
