Then Bengals 90s - current...

[*Go Cards*]

The loss sux but its the NFL and it happens.

Yet the Bengals have played 5 of their 8 games on the road in the NFL which is definitely grueling.

The Bengals are currently sitting only a half a game out of first place in the division with a tiebreaker over said team.

They're a game up on steelers with tiebreaker and one and a half games up on the Browns and will either have a two and a half game lead or a half game lead on Browns no matter which way this game ends.

Point is that it's not the time for Bengals fans to melt down just yet, not even after this game.

Obviously want to win this game but feel the first few games after the bye week is going to be a better gauge on where the team stands and is heading.
5-4 or better yet 6-3 is not a horrible place to be coming off the bye week especially after recalling the preseason predictions made on this board.
The Jets debacle stunk but it was also their 3rd road game in a row and we won two of them even by a total score of 75 to 28, again ON THE ROAD.

Let's wait and see how they respond.
