The Bengals were the team with something on the line thanks to the league nonsense, so they had to play starters and win, but hold back as/where possible.
It's really still ridiculous they were put in the spot they were with coin flip crap, but I think it helped shake some cobwebs and get them ready to play this week after all the drama of that MNF game.
Really curious to see how they plan and execute this Sunday. It could be a tight game (I'd expect it given the division nature, and the rest Bal got), or the Bengals could blow it open like they've done at some points in the past. Definitely no gimme game, but I'm confident.
Completely agree with everything as usual MHG. The Rats had a free for all to hurt us and we DID lose our best OL, so good for
those cheating bastids same as what the stealers have always done. I just don't want my team to play like that. We are healthy
besides Cappa and thankfully I believe we have a more than capable guy in Scharping to step in and hopefully do well or at the
very least, not hurt us enough to cost us a game that might be tight.
All I know is the Ratbirds want it to be tight and we don't in this one. No resting our starters this time around or players being off
in their games like the last one and there will be no vanilla.
It's a Free For All in this one for both teams and I am with you and am very confident in our guys executing to perfection.
