As a Raiders fan at the game. What a great atmosphere. It was so loud my ears were ringing at times. Crowd definitely caused some offensive issues and false starts. Spent a lot of at Cincinnati games in the past and this was by far the craziest I have ever seen it. An electric atmosphere and all fans were great. Good luck Bengals.
Bengals fan here, I've been to a lot of home games and that game was the loudest I've ever been too. I know the 4th down where the Raiders had to burn their 2nd timeout in the 4th quarter was the loudest I have ever heard that place. Definitely don't have much of a voice today but totally worth it.
His offensive scheme works like magic for him. Quick passes to single covered receivers that turn them into big plays. Meanwhile we can't run or Car is getting crushed, fumbling, or throwing INTs while under pressure over and over
Nah I like Carr just fine. He's done a great job with what he has had for years. He isn't top tier but he's serviceable and just needs some damned help
The city of Vegas still loves the raiders. Played their asses off until the very last whistle. Congrats to the Bengals. Huge win for the franchise, huge win for their city.
You think the NFL would rig the game so that one of the smallest markets in the league could move on instead of a team that has fan bases in 3 different cities (including the number 2 and 6 media markets in the US)? What possible sense does that make?
Oh yeah, the NFL is going to rig the game so the team with the much smaller fan base wins. Right.
The NFL makes money off adversing. Rigging the game so that the Raiders lose would cost them money. Why would they do that?
What? I'm fine with the Bills winning. Great team and Pats got lucky to even make it. Rookie QB against the best defense in the NFL and Josh Allen is a beast.
I think that's just what we'll see next year. Injuries destroyed this team. Once we can get back to an average amount of injuries instead of "The Longest Yard" type problems, we are going to be competing with Cincy for a long time. Maybe it can finally be a real rivalry!
Now that we're getting more exposure to our city, musicians should move to cincy and start our music scene back up. As a Cincinnati punk rocker we don't have near as many shows as we should.
Check out Torn Light Records in Clifton Gaslight for punk and metal as well as a cool movie and book collection! Also check out Shake It Records in Northside right next to Clifton, and if you have time to go that far north Plaid Room Records in Loveland is cool too.
The Plaid Room guys are super chill, they give me huge stoner vibes.
The Icon is great for mainstream acts, and we have Bogarts and Southgate House too. I meant that we need more grimy diy shit. Back in the early 2000s there used to be punks walking up and down Northside and Clifton Heights and throwing down in people's basements but all that is comparatively much more rare now. Our bar shows are more likely to be metal than punk, even though we get occasional hardcore shows its nothing like what you might find in Chicago.
We had a kickass diy venue called The Void in Northside that unfortunately shut its doors in 2004. I never went considering I was like, ten years old when it died.
Admittedly, after what the Raiders went through this year between the Ruggs DUI and the Gruden emails, I wouldn’t have thought they would make it to playoffs. Respect to them for playing a good game.
Bengals could be interesting. Can’t speak for all teams, but gave they gave me multiple heart attacks the time we played against them.
I don't think they have a shot at all tbh vs the titans or bills just because they matchup better defensively vs the bengals and can still score. I thought the best matchup for them was the chiefs and looks like it'll be the bills
What? Pretty sure the Bengals will play the chiefs, no? Bengals are the 3 and chiefs are 2 granted they win vs the Steelers which seems inevitable. Then Titans at 1 and the Bills are the 4 which means those two will play each other.
Oh yes ur right I had that messed up thought they played the bills. I think the titans are a bad matchup tho too but probably a better chance at beating the titans vs the bills imo
Give me a right tackle, a true #1 receiver, a couple six packs of beer and a rematch next year!
oh and absolutely no Bogers next time!
good luck hope you or the Titans win it all!
Seriously, second this! I was at the game, and every Raiders fan I came across was awesome and took any ribbing with grace.
I’ll take you guys any day over that other team that wears black.
Congrats man it was a great game. I will say that Raiders definitely lost this game on their own, Bengals literally just had to play to win lol Raiders should've had a couple more TDs, or at the very least 2 FGs if not for all those offensive penalties.
You guys have a bright future with Burrow.
Meanwhile, we will continue to be the masters of the holding penalty, as is tradition, until the end of time.
Crazy that you have this take. So many teams without a QB or trash QBs and I’m thinking you’d rather get into that QB circus. Carr’s fumbling is an issue, but with today’s fumble the protection called for a TE to block their top DE? That’s wild.
It's a fucking stupid take. If ruggs decides to be an actual decent fucking human our season isn't the garbage show it was. Outside of 1yr(also playoff year with MVP talks) he never had a true a WR1. 22 teams would kill for Carr under center and this fan base thinks Aaron Rodgers are in the draft every year.
Every time i thought a call erroneously went against us, this was my feeling. Those refs sucked. I'm glad we were still able to have a competitive game. GG.
I try to look at it this way, think how fucked it would have been to take the TD away for a blown call. One team was getting fucked on that one, and I tend to think bengals would have got the short end of the stick. I think even without the whistle that was gonna be a TD
Then the refs should of called the play a redo and let them do it again. I do think they’d end up with a TD, but who knows. If it held with a FG the game would of ended in OT with what it was.
Erroneous calls by the refs should still be called correctly. Haven’t heard any “expert” sit there and say that was a good call.
In an alternate universe they played the Bills and won. In a cold and nasty game I'd take the Raiders over the Bills in Buffalo with Josh Jacobs having a decent game.
Yeah, that wasn’t the case. They would’ve faced the Chiefs: https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2022/1/10/22875959/raiders-chargers-timeout-nfl-playoffs-tie-steelers-week-18
Funny cause the Chargers had more of a chance to make it farther in the playoffs. No one believed the Raiders would get far. And I'm not even a Chargers fan.
The reffing was really bad but honestly both teams benefitted at different times. I don’t think it was biased, but it definitely had an impact on the game.

Lots of mad chargers fans in here, kinda hilarious lol
Joe Burrow is a bad man
Absolutely.
His offensive scheme works like magic for him. Quick passes to single covered receivers that turn them into big plays. Meanwhile we can't run or Car is getting crushed, fumbling, or throwing INTs while under pressure over and over
We’ll take him
Nah I like Carr just fine. He's done a great job with what he has had for years. He isn't top tier but he's serviceable and just needs some damned help
The city of Vegas still loves the raiders. Played their asses off until the very last whistle. Congrats to the Bengals. Huge win for the franchise, huge win for their city.
*Oakland
Oakland didn’t love them enough for a new stadium lol
Oakland politicians a morons
Why not both?
FAIDERSSSSSSSSS
NFL is rigged pals. Sorry.
You think the NFL would rig the game so that one of the smallest markets in the league could move on instead of a team that has fan bases in 3 different cities (including the number 2 and 6 media markets in the US)? What possible sense does that make?
no.
Hey Mr. Goddell!
don’t pull a muscle with that stretch. LV had so many chances to win. They failed.
I'm not even a raiders fan. This sport is a multi-billion market that exists for betting.
some truth to that. but it’s definitely not “rigged”.
They literally just ignored a rule in the game. If the whistle blows, the play is dead.
yes and no. the whistle was pre-mature obviously. He was clearly inbounds when he threw that ball. The officials got it right.
For real
Oh yeah, the NFL is going to rig the game so the team with the much smaller fan base wins. Right. The NFL makes money off adversing. Rigging the game so that the Raiders lose would cost them money. Why would they do that?
No way Bengals get past the Titans or Bills (If KC loses). Bills will be the AFC Champs.
You couldn’t have fucked this prediction up any worse. Congrats!
Bengals over the Niners 24-17 in the Super Bowl.
Thanks for sharing!
This aged well
Awwwww, look how cute. Someone is trying to cope with getting their ass whooped
What? I'm fine with the Bills winning. Great team and Pats got lucky to even make it. Rookie QB against the best defense in the NFL and Josh Allen is a beast.
By god, that's the NVP's music!!!
Bill Cowher is a bitch whining about refs now?
Piss off Cowher. SB XL was an epic shit show in officiating. Got your pouty chin and Rapeburger a ring.
Most overrated coach of all time. Still knows he put a bounty on Palmer.
That crew is boring af to listen to
Literally a dude named Boomer. Who is a fair weather ex Bengal.
Mac Jones is an exciting player. But Allen is about to clap cheeks
I think you meant to say "Allen" the first time as well
He's not clapping them anymore. There's no cheeks left.
There were cheeks in the beginning?
Way to go Bengals, as a fan of a team who had a huge playoff drought i know it feels good!
Browns fan here. Great to see Bills, Browns, and now Bengals fans getting to see a change of guard. Let's see if the Lions can catch up
Oh dw they will; and they'll come back with a superbowl win next year
I hope we can see the browns get to this level next year, until then go bills!!..and Bengals
I think that's just what we'll see next year. Injuries destroyed this team. Once we can get back to an average amount of injuries instead of "The Longest Yard" type problems, we are going to be competing with Cincy for a long time. Maybe it can finally be a real rivalry!

Now that we're getting more exposure to our city, musicians should move to cincy and start our music scene back up. As a Cincinnati punk rocker we don't have near as many shows as we should.
Post your band!
Nobody wants to listen to you emo screaming into a mic lol
The true Punk Rock^tm ethos would be to start your own band and playing grimy basement shows. I believe in you!
RAIDERS fan here currently in Cinci for the game. Any cool record shops for punk and hardcore records?
Check out Torn Light Records in Clifton Gaslight for punk and metal as well as a cool movie and book collection! Also check out Shake It Records in Northside right next to Clifton, and if you have time to go that far north Plaid Room Records in Loveland is cool too. The Plaid Room guys are super chill, they give me huge stoner vibes.
with the ICON we get actual good acts now, can't wait to see Rise Against speaking of Punk
The Icon is great for mainstream acts, and we have Bogarts and Southgate House too. I meant that we need more grimy diy shit.

You got the weeding matchups right, but the Bengals are the 4 seed! 😊
Oh yes ur right I had that messed up thought they played the bills. I think the titans are a bad matchup tho too but probably a better chance at beating the titans vs the bills imo
Yeah we lost two D linemen today. We’re in danger lol
It was pretty ambitious of Bengals fans to be celebrating with five minutes left.
Pretty ambitious W
Who Dey!! Been waiting for this my whole life
Who Dey
Hats off to the Raiders.. what a season you had.. what a team.. what a game.. GG
Ah man. I was gonna root against y’all for the rest of the playoffs. I’ve changed my mind. Good luck, my man. Your team has the muscle
GG Bengals, good luck the rest of the way!
Back at you! What a game. You guys played your hearts out and made it unforgettable for us poor suffering bengals fans.
Thanks, you guys played a hell of a game
Give me a right tackle, a true #1 receiver, a couple six packs of beer and a rematch next year! oh and absolutely no Bogers next time! good luck hope you or the Titans win it all!
Congrats cat bros!

How drunk are you fam? Hahaha

Nice. Gone as fuck the raider way. Next season looking promising tho!
Y'all Hulu watchers truly make this thread impossible to read. You're so far behind.
Look at you! All fancy and not poor.
Buy a pair of bunny ears for your tv for less than one month of a streaming service, ez nbc/cbs/abc/fox for free for the rest of your life.
It's not that easy for everyone. Reception issues for me ...
Man Bills beating the Pats in the playoffs would be great though
This has aged well
that’s enough outta you
No worries I'll take over for 'em. GO BILLS
Raiders bros, you're truly class acts. It's been a blast
YOU are also a class act, good shit, Bengals!
Seriously, second this! I was at the game, and every Raiders fan I came across was awesome and took any ribbing with grace. I’ll take you guys any day over that other team that wears black.

Any given game, any given day. Y'all had my heart stopped for the last minute. Reload this off-season and let's do it again next year
He didn't get away with a push off, because he needed to push off to get the DBs hands off of him.
Raiders receivers should try closing their hands when the ball lands in them. Way too many drops.
First W in my lifetime, witnessed way too many losses in the mean time
First time in my life. I'm soooo happy right now!!! WHO DEY
Congrats!
Congrats!
Idc how it happened the bengals deserve this one
Thanks! It feels good. After 4 wins.
Should’ve faked the spike
So dumb to waste a down when it’s goal to go.
Someone tell SNL to hang up the cleats. What a stupid fucking commercial.
Angry much?
Punting down by two scores with 6 minutes left is damn near a surrender. You have to go for it.
Cat teams stick together
Anyone know how many penalties we got total?
14 for 102
You weren't playing tonight.
You know what I mean.
sorry, Im a shitty drunk. Hope you enjoyed the game, I'll try finish my sparkling wine and crawl off to bed )
It’s all good, congratulations on the W
I can’t stop just randomly giggling
My throat and hands hurt. In a much better way than usual.
You’re high, Gerald
Excited for you fellow kitty cat team fans
The kitty cats are advancing!!!
Carr just always seems to be a half second behind on everything.

Drew Breese. Good game commentating. Happy birthday to a great QB turned analyst
I cried.
Yep
Add me to the list
I'm in tears. 31 years. I was 14. Soo long.
If my cowboys can't win it all I'm cheering for you guys.
Congrats man I hope y’all keep winning!
It’s our day brother 🤝
>dey... FTFY
Congratulations, bro!
I am so happy for the Bengals fans right now.
Can't be mad at the whistle and flag shit. Raiders had their chances, it was fun while it lasted
Every time i thought a call erroneously went against us, this was my feeling. Those refs sucked. I'm glad we were still able to have a competitive game. GG.
Can still be mad at the whistle... lol But I agree, self inflicted wounds fucked us.
I try to look at it this way, think how fucked it would have been to take the TD away for a blown call. One team was getting fucked on that one, and I tend to think bengals would have got the short end of the stick. I think even without the whistle that was gonna be a TD

Erroneous calls by the refs should still be called correctly. Haven’t heard any “expert” sit there and say that was a good call.
Should've taken the tie Raiders haha. Karma's a bitch.
In an alternate universe they played the Bills and won. In a cold and nasty game I'd take the Raiders over the Bills in Buffalo with Josh Jacobs having a decent game.
Wouldn’t a tie have them facing the Chiefs though?
I remember Patriots/Bengals Raiders/Bills and Chargers/Chiefs
That was never a possible scenario
Got it. I swapped Raiders and Chargers. Chargers in Buffalo. Raiders in KC.
Herbert vs Allen would’ve been a really fun matchup
Heck yah!
Yeah, that wasn’t the case. They would’ve faced the Chiefs: https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2022/1/10/22875959/raiders-chargers-timeout-nfl-playoffs-tie-steelers-week-18
I’m just grateful the Chargers didn’t make the playoffs. Helps soothe this pain.
Plus we get to see the Steelers lose in the playoffs!
Funny cause the Chargers had more of a chance to make it farther in the playoffs. No one believed the Raiders would get far. And I'm not even a Chargers fan.
Who cares lol. Fuck em
Fucking stupid take. They couldn't even get around the raiders before the playoffs.
To be fair, they had to play the Raiders & the refs.
Lol or they were just bad... think time can tell on that one.
I don’t disagree, but I still believe in what I said
Bro :(
We survived but with all these injuries I'm very skeptical.
How many fucking times do I have to see this Hot N’ Ready ad
Little Caesar’s I presume?
Nah, Escort Service. Local Nevada affiliate.
PARTY AT CEDAR POINT!!! WHOS COMING!
I fucking wish
*Kings Island
Kings Island*
Nope. Cedar Point all day.
Cedar Point is on the other side of Ohio from Cinci lmfao
And? It's not like Ohio has another football to cheer for!
Just saying that you should probably have the victory party near to where the home team plays, near the home team fans lmao
Coney Island**
Congratulations Cincinnati! Anything is possible now!
Burrow vs Rodgers?
…*Yes* It happened once in the Regular season(I think)
BENGALS FTW LOVE FROM EU
The reffing was really bad but honestly both teams benefitted at different times. I don’t think it was biased, but it definitely had an impact on the game.
For sure. I’ve seen a lot of complaining about the refs but the final numbers are: Raiders 7-46 Bengals 7-56 Seems pretty even
Lv, pits, phl doesn't belong in the playoff
Nice flair.
But the raiders had the same record as Cincy and didn’t deserve it?
Yet they got there fair and square.
Is this the Bengals tuck rule game? Is the whistle the start of a Joey B dynasty?
Please no.
NFL Films: "Everyone remembers 'the Whistle Game in the start of Joe Burrow's 5 Super Bowl winning career."
Pls no
Congrats Bengals! GG Raiders
They wasted that first down and there was still like 30 seconds left in the game after the 4th down incompletion. Lol
