I was impressed by the play of Burfict. He looked like his old self back there and definitely added something to the defense that was missing. How do you all think he looked after only practicing twice before this game?

We hear this, right? Well, have you checked the standings?

At the time of this writing,

Bengals
Patriots
Broncos

are all undefeated. The only other team in the AFC who is above .500 is the Jets.

So, who is leading the AFC South?

The 3-4 Colts.

The NFC has 8 teams above .500 to the AFC's 4.

Still, it's "any given Sunday" (or Thursday for us this week.

This weeks issue (Nov 2) of Sports Illustrated has a long story singing the praises of Paul Alexander.

Good to see him finally getting the recognition he deserves.

I heard it was a shoulder injury... any updates?

Do we know anything concerning Hill? He was hobbling off the field after his last carry- just worried. Any updates?

Honestly who else on our schedule do you see beating us? I don't see us losing to the Browns again at our place on Thursday, I don't see us losing to the terrible Texans, I don't see us losing to the Broncos because Peyton has been playing terrible and the AFC north is ours for the taking I don't think we even lose in the AFC North so do you think we could be looking at an undefeated season ?

Its likely AJ Green's nemesis will miss Thursday's game. This is his 2nd concussion this year...no way he clears protocal in time to play on Thursday.

Man, I'm a huge fan but he seems relatively MIA this year.

He has mad talent but his overall play has been pretty "quiet" this year.

I thought he would go hog wild with all the AJ double teams.

Way To Go Bengals.....I Love It....

Paulie Guenther needs to be hammered. With the F'ed up O-line pittsburgh was dealing with and ben hobbled how do you not attack? this man is doing less with more than i've ever seen. What do you think zimmer would've done with this defense today? Paulie needs to get some balls man, big gigantic balls.
