I don’t get it And they’re still showing more love to Buffalo for whatever reason lol RE: 2023 Schedule - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 05-12-2023 (05-11-2023, 10:02 AM)pally Wrote: Preseason Good looking sched. Could really start out hot if we can handle the Stains in the opener. Love getting the Rams, Cards and Squawks before that early bye and then getting that much time to prepare for a tough 49er team. Always like getting the Chiefs late in the season as it really tests us going into the Playoffs. Happy we didn't get them in the opener like I thought we would. Lions actually might give them a tough opener as they play everyone tough and should be even better this year.

Yeah, don't get it myself with the Chargers, they just fail as the Playoffs approach every year it seems. The Vikes cannot win once they get to the Playoffs either. Bengals should of had just as many Primetime games as the Chiefs or the Bills, we are the one team that has both of their numbers and we shown that the Bills sure look to be outmatched in our time playing them as well.

It looks like they are trying to prop up the Chargers for the LA market as LAR sure isn’t going anywhere. And my favorite source ( the guy with the opinions) you know the guy who lives at Paycor in the dungeon… says they aren’t going to be very good.

Vegas isn’t even that big of a market and they were given 4 primetime games last year. Now after a 6-11 season, they’re given 5 lol RE: 2023 Schedule - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 05-12-2023 (05-12-2023, 01:26 PM)Frank Booth Wrote: Vegas isn’t even that big of a market and they were given 4 primetime games last year.

Oktoberfest was still going on that day so the crowd was very well "lubricated". I remember thinking that was the craziest crowd game I have ever seen for the Bengals. Oh, the crowd'll be bonkers with Oktoberfest going on for 3 hours before kickoff plus tailgating. I'm more concerned about the people/cars and trying to get anywhere before and after the game. If Oktoberfest Zinzinnati draws over 500k over 4 days as is reported, you're talking basically 2 full PBS's worth of people and cars a day on average, plus a then full PBS on Sunday. Then you take into account the road closures? That's going to be crazy. Even if there's an unrealistically large overlap between OFZ attendees and Bengals game attendees, and also accounting for the attendance at OFZ being cumulative throughout the day, not all there at once, there'll still be an enormous volume of added automobiles and people over what is already present on gameday. That's...ambitious, both in logistics for foot and car traffic, but also in general crowd control. Especially considering what the mean BAC of the people in that crowd will surely be. It'll be one wild home opener that's for sure. I was already planning on going to Oktoberfest, now Sunday becomes an Oktoberfest-Bengals-Oktoberfest sandwich? Football, beer, and a seemingly infinite variety of soft pretzels?! Fine by me! RE: 2023 Schedule - Soonerpeace - 05-12-2023 Only 4 PrimeTime games is a joke RE: 2023 Schedule - BengalBob - 05-12-2023 (05-12-2023, 02:28 PM)Soonerpeace Wrote: Only 4 PrimeTime games is a joke Yep. Although I was expecting 2 road Thursday night division opponent games and only got 1. So that's a plus RE: 2023 Schedule - Synric - 05-12-2023 I don't really like the relatively early bye week and that they have two sets of back to back division games. Other than that they still have the AFC South and NFC West.

The last couple of years the Bengals have won 5 Playoff games and yet got less primetime games. I find this absurd.

But also we should be getting a player back like La'el Collins by then to at least help with the depth on the OL. Doubt LC is ready to go come the opener.

Most of the stars on the roster are young, the early break might be more beneficial to them than some of the older players. The young players with the early break will be ready for the long haul to the Super Bowl. And as you say, some older vets like Collins might be ready to fill in should the need arise.

True, we are still one of the youngest teams in the NFL, I heard there was 1 team younger than us last year, forget who... I think us being younger is a big reason why we have had so much post season success the last few years, plus the culture change in bringing in Captains and our younger coaches learning on the job as well as the young players are just plain smart. Listening to our players talk they got smarts and are all team players. For example, there is a reason we brought in a guy like Nick Scott, he is a smart vet and we drafted all smart players from Murphy on down. Lou's types have to be smart same as Zac's and Darrin's. We don't just bring in talented guys like some of us fans would like. They have to have it between the ears and be selfless.

Otherwise, I really don't get it either. |
