Gio Bernard DNP today (Wednesday)...

Mike in St. Louis : 11/25/2020 7:43 pm

due to a possible concussion - going through the protocol...we may see Samaje Perine on Sunday...

GIOVANI BERNARD
RB, CINCINNATI BENGALS

Giovani Bernard (concussion) did not practice Wednesday.
This is the first anyone's hearing of a Bernard concussion, so perhaps it's a new issue that popped up Wednesday, similar to the D'Andre Swift situation last week. Bernard now has four days to progress through the league's strenuous protocols. If he can't play in Week 12, Samaje Perine is next man up followed by Trayveon Williams. It's another lost season for the Bengals.

It doesn’t matter who they put back there,

You would think that it very much matters who the Bengals have back there if their clearest path to victory lies through a strong running game.

It matters to THEM who they put back there. It doesn't matter to us.

Bernard was the only chance they have at scoring, if

he doesn’t play and Giants lose, we have serious problems. Shit if we lose and Bernard plays we have serious problems. Lose to the Bengals in this spot and many people will get their wish. DG won’t be back, you can book it.

Let’s not forget San Fran game

The Giants low point of the first 4 games. This team seems like it has gotten better in a lot of areas and if they have they will win this game convincingly,.

The 49ers even with all those injuries were still much more talented than the Bengals are

Not a lot of career production

He had 1 good season. This year , however,he seems to be getting a decent amount of 1st downs compared to the total attempts he's had, which haven't been a ton. He's still young, and will likely try and seize an opportunity to shine. Beatable guy,as we've decent run defense, but I'm thinking he's likely to exploit any mistakes we make or openings he sees. He isn't a Noob. Play sloppy, and I bet he hurts ya.

if you have ever prepared to play an opposing team in competitive football.. then you would know that it does matter.
