You'd think Bengals fans would be talking more about them than the Steelers given how many fans have posted that a loss to a good team on the road would be better than a loss to a bad team at home...and then the Bengals lost to a bad team at home.
Or playing on Sunday night when the Bengals have a dismal record in prime time games under Marvin Lewis.
Discuss.

So.....
This was the game Bengals fans were worried about. And the Bengals showed up! But lost.
Does that make you feel better or worse?

Actually I feel good about. At least better than last weeks.  The 21 straight unanswered point to start the 3rd was a killer. Dalton showed up no shame other than the start 3rd. On to St. Louis

I could live with this one if we didn't just endure that crapfest Monday. That's the one that will haunt the Bengals if they miss a bye week or even lose the division.
You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American

#1 Offense vs #1 Defense
The offense won. it was a good fight but the defense couldnt stop palmer often enough or when it did it started raining yellow flags.

Still 2 games ahead of you guys with a easier schedule ahead of us. I feel indifferent.

Beating the Steelers again would virtually guarantee the Bengals win the division regardless of the other games, but losing would make it a game lead with AFCN record being the tiebreaker. It's not much for a 2 game lead since there's still a head-to-head matchup to play.

It's annoying they lost, but they'll still win the division. Just have to focus on figuring out how to finally win a playoff game.

I think that's what the rest of the NFL really want to see. The Bengals have made it to the playoffs 4 years in a row so them playing well in the regular season is no surprise to anyone. Thus the lack of articles even when the Bengals were 8-0. Also the lack of articles even though the Bengals have lost 2 in a row. No one thinks any of this is a big deal.
Everyone in the NFL expects the Bengals to make to the playoffs and even get a bye. I think to everyone in the NFL, they'll start to pay attention to the Bengals once they win their first playoff game. Once that happens, you'll see EVERYONE paying attention!
So if I were you, I'd just chill until the playoffs. Because until then, nothing significant is really going to happen.
