I’m looking for more energy and for the Bengals not to give up today. If the defense can appear like they actually have some semblance of a game plan that would be a nice bonus.

I eliminated the curse for the Bengals. Last year when we were either 4-0 or 4-1, I bought a long sleeve black shirt to go under my Bengal jerseys. We've been shit since. I burned it today so expect a win.

Two crappy things with today's game.

First, at some point today, I will have to go to work at a moments notice, and I won't know when that will be until the phone rings.  The last time I worked during a Bengals game was 1995.

The second probem is the timing.  I will be 50 miles from the stadium for 7 days, starting NEXT Saturday!

They apparently have no plan to ever play Glenn again.

Good. We should all agree to burn one team item. Think of it as an offering to the football gods. I just don't know if I want us to break the losing streak or go 0-16 to guarantee the #1 over all in the draft.

I just wanted to check in to have my spirits uplifted in this game day thread.

Let's guarantee the first pick before we win.  Washington doesn't look capable of winning another game so if we win one it will come down to the strength of schedule.  We will have played Seattle, 49ers, Baltimore (twice), and New England which means if we tie with the Redskins with one win apiece their weaker schedule will give them 1st overall.

Does an 84-year-old team "item" qualify?

Maybe I'll pretend to go fishing as this team pretends to play football. Win/win, huh?

It's much too late for your fishing to save us.  Think this team needs something like this:

I just don't want to go 0-16.

I just ate boneless wings with a knife and Fork. Think I lost major man points.

Pratt didn't make it to the hole... good start.

Not until you eat a Snickers bar that way.

They don't call holding anymore do they

[cinci4life]

Wow a stop! After that first play i'd call that a miracle.

[Fan_in_Kettering]

Way to go, defense. I see Lou Anarumo is running a 3-3-5 alternating with 4-3-4.
