Bengals

[Pointg5]

With less than a week until the NFL opener, they are the Super Bowl Champions...They have the best offense in the NFL and they have significantly upgraded their Defense with the addition of Dexter Jackson and Sam Adams...Carson Palmer looks to be in mid-season form which is unbelievable considering his injuries...

They will be a force this year....Indy, Ravens and Steelers will not go easily however!

TB - be careful - KC is a great home team especially in Sept

I am not saying it's a bad play - just be carful of KC at home in Sept

The Steelers will not get "destroyed" by anyone and will certainly not finish below the Ravens or the Browns. The Bengals are tough and matchups with the Steelers should be great games.

Steelers and Bengals should both win about 10 or 11 this year and make the playoffs...lets leave it at that for now and we'll see where we are in January!

Let's say the Bengals and Steelers are down to the wire, they play each other in Cincy on New Years Eve, I have heard that they are going to move this to a night game. 60,000 drunk pissed off Cincinnatians pissed off about the cheap shot on Carson from a year ago, that would be a bad combination...

Is the coach of Kc.. Herm Edwards?>>Look for about 95% running plays and hope L J doesnt run out of steam by the forth quarter.

That's true, but it's the NFL, teams can do an overhaul or go bust in a season...The Bengals are returning all offensive starters and added Sam Adams and Dexter Jackson on Defense, along with getting Madieu Williams back. If they play better defense, they should win at least 12...

Cheapshot....yeah whatever.

Yes, it was cheap and they took our Super Bowl...

Give me a fricking break. Keep crying down there would you. Former Cincy teammate gets blocked and momentum swung him into Palmer's direction.

Intentional where's the fines?

I thought so.

Well, they changed the rules this year, because of that play...

I am a HUGE Cincy fan. I have had season tickets for 18 years now. I do not think Cincy wins this division. They have too hard of schedule. I really feel Baltimore wins the division. Not because they are better than Cincy or Pitt, but because they have a favorable scedule. Schedule is everything in the NFL.

TB--cant believe you thought Miami would beat Pitt on opening night. That was ridiculous.

Miami was two plays away from beating them last night

Yeah, but that is all it takes to win or lose a game.

Yeah and Miami was also two plays from getting completely oblitterated last night. Ike Taylor (worst hands of any DB in the league IMO) drops a lob interception in the end zone and the Dolphins go in on the next play. Charlie Batch fumbles the ball on the 1 yard line with the Steelers poised to strike again. If the INT happens and the fumble doesnt, its all of a sudden 35-10. The Steelers gave the Dolphins a ton of chances and the Fish still couldnt hang with the champs.

[ddthetide]

bungal fans better pray every play that palmer does not go down! palmer goes down and so do the bungals.

the black and gold will smack around the bungals at least one of the 2 games this year, just like they did last year.

i love the steelers but i just don't see a repeat.
Black and Gold, please prove me wrong!
