The Official Bengals Board Fantasy Football League

I turned the game off in the 3rd quarter. I got smoked, I figured. Friday morning I see Big Ben put up a lot of garbage time points. I'll take the garbage time points. Somehow he went from no points to 25.82 points. Plus Steelers lost which helps Bengals. I figured he got almost no points, because there was no blocking as Big Ben was getting sacked as soon as ball was snapped. They must have fell so far behind they just started throwing it every play. He went from zero to 300 yards passing and 3 touchdowns. I was hoping for something 20 points or more, so of course I'll take 25.82 points. I turned game off and fell asleep thinking he put up around zero points, and that would have been an early loss for me.

So a surprise this morning to see 25.82 points by the QB. I haven't lost this week early at all. Glad the Steelers lost. The no defense and the no O Line and Big Ben retiring, Steelers are in the position Bengals were. Steelers need a complete rebuild, and they may have some 2 or 3 win seasons because complete rebuilds take time. Steelers will have to draft a QB of the future, rebuild their O Line and fix a terrible defense. I wouldn't mind seeing Steelers the doormats of the AFC North a while. Boy, their defense and O Line stink. Steelers have major problems and we saw with Bengals, you can't draft everybody in one year, it takes a few drafts. They need to draft a QB in round 1, so fixing these other problems will be next to impossible early on, they are in for a couple of rough years no matter how you look at it. Bengals have been there, so I don't feel sorry Steelers are looking at years of rebuild.

Again, the reason I benched Josh Allen last 2 weeks is The Patriots Defense, and The Super Bowl Tampa in Tampa game. I'll start Allen again, but these are 2 Defensive Games back to back. As for using a Steeler, others on here have Steelers on their rosters all year long. I only used him one game, and hated using him the one game. There are some who are happy they have Browns or Ravens players, which is just as bad. But we learn in Fantasy Sports not to have too many from the same team, so you really can't go with all Bengals or Reds. It was someone on this site who told me when I started Fantasy a couple years ago, to never draft all Bengals or all Reds, that you want players from different teams. So many on here have Steelers, Browns and Ravens on their rosters every week. It would be impossible to draft all The Bengals, and it would kill you on Bye Week. Just as it would be impossible to draft all the Reds, you couldn't do it if you wanted to.
