It's ok when you bring play money. Bengals did nothing last night because, frankly, they didn't have to.
Think about it.....only a few roster spots are up for grabs at the back end of the roster. Starters are veteran players who understand what it takes to be ready for Oakland, when it actually means something. What is the point in going out there and putting yourself at risk in a preseason game?
I liken the Bengals now to the Colts of a few years ago. Every year they would stink up the preseason, every year there would be stories, message board posts, TV analysts claiming their demise in eminent. Never happened. Why? Because preseason games are completely useless for an established team.
And, BTW, I would have posted the same thing last week after a "good" showing against New York.
