The sad thing is we were the Bungles because we were so bad for years, then we were the Bungles because we lost in Prime time, Then we were the Bungles because we cant win a post season game. That was as good as it got.
Good Franchises when they have bad season think, i cant stand by this crap, we need to make a change to try improve (sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, but there is an effort). This Franchise sticks with a mediocre coach. The Bengals in recent years have been the Arsenal of Soccer (for those that know anything about them). They keep having a decent season getting to the post season and the cash is flowing nicely. But when they get there its over. So what was the point .....
Fans like me? I don't know where you're going with this, but I don't have a say in who owns or how they run this franchise.
What it seems you don't understand is that the fans have little to nothing to say about anything they do within those confines. I can sit here all day and say "f*** this, f*** that, they suck, etc" but what does it really do to improve the situation? Little to nothing, especially when it comes to football operations.

We'll just have to agree to disagree. Dalton, especially showed me a lot in that game. I was already sold on him after last season, but that game solidified it.
Im with you on Dalton, i love the guy and he has shown us plenty to believe in. He was one of the few to show some emotion on the field yesterday, But he cant do shit behind that line, so its a moot point.

Apathy is a terrible thing in all walks of life. There is a lot of Apathy all around the Bengals. In the Ownership/Coaching/Players & fans.

When they land in Boston on Saturday evening would be my best guess.
In all seriousness, I am hoping for the absolute best. Maybe the Pats throw a clunker out there and we magically play out of our freaking minds and pull it off. Highly unlikely. Either we do just that, or it will be a very ugly loss.
I would have much, much more confidence in this team going on the road against a team like NE if our O-line was not such an abysmal failure at the sport of football.

Bengals.
Andy gets AJMC to play tight end and they become the first QB - QB duo in the NFL.
Russell Bodine lines up as WR and catches a 98 yard bomb from Carlos Dunlap to finish the game..

Well, I believe the last time we played at New England, we got stomped 43 - 17 and wasn't competitive at all.
We struggle against TEs typically and will be facing Gronk and Bennett, struggle getting pressure on anybody, Couldn't stop a dallas team without Dez Bryant, don't see how Edelman, Ammedola, and party will be shut down. Plus Brady's first home game of the season, and don't forget there will probably be a few bad calls from the refs (not that they will need it)
I am going to guess that being Brady's first home game, they will not take the foot off of the gas ( similar to the last time the Patriots had two stud TEs and went 16 -0 blowing everyone out with Gronk/Hernandez)
Pats 52
Bengals 10
Good news, the opening line is Pats (-8), maybe make some money this weekend

In case you are wondering, the Pats fans feel the same way. Some are a little more politically correct than others, but yeah they are pretty confident.

38-17 Patriots.
And like yesterday, the score won't be indicative of what a thorough ass whippin' the game actually was.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

24- 21 Bengals in upset.
The defense will bounce back and will play a lot better than expected than both the experts and board are expecting. Andy throws a late game winning TD, Bernard and Hill both get a TD , Geno, Clark, Johnson, and Dunlap each get a sack.

My prediction,more o line problems, because marvin won't fix the line. Brady discects our defense to pieces. But we find away to keep it close but lose something like 28-17.marvin says we are close again.

What kind of odds are you getting for that?

About tree fifty to 10, but Brady only has seven left handed passing touchdowns.
Bengals won't win this. The cowboys torched them. I am a huge homer and think they'll be lucky to go 8-8.
Let's start speculation on our replacement coach that will never be appointed.

The Bengals look very deep internally after the Cowboys loss and realize their mortality.
Zampese and co simplify the offense, making it easier for them to execute.
Bengals fight to win the close game. 30-28.

Bengals are 2-0 over the AFC EAST teams this year so that means ....
