Every other post here is about how atrocious our defense is and how Lamar and Henry will each run for 150 against us, with most of the remaining posts being about how inept our coaching staff is. Are we really that shocked that they're confident? Were the situation reversed we would be too. Fortunately, the confidence of a message board of internet randos means diddey-squat to the game's outcome. And that's why they play the game.
You don’t have to go back very far to see a similar comp; week one of this year. Everyone thought the Bengals would cruise to an easy W against the Pats, both fan bases included. But we all saw what happened. Sounds cliche but it’s true, there are no gimmes in the NFL and this is exactly the type of game in which I can see the Bengals stealing a W.
