If the Bengals don't handily come away with a win then the coaches will have been ill prepared for this game. The Bengals are better at just about every position. The Bengals have better RBs, better WRs, a better OL (imagine that), a better DL, better LBs and a better secondary. The position where the Colts have an advantage is at QB, but given Luck's rust the Bengals should also have an advantage there.

Bengals DL will attacked from the first snap all the way to the end of the game. The Colts are weak up the middle on the OL and Luck is going to have bodies in his face from the beginning. I'm looking for very little blitzing from the Bengals, yet a lot of pass rush pressure.

The biggest question mark I have is can the Bengals offense run the ball effectively enough to put this game away in the 3rd quarter and burn clock. If we get a 10 point lead and Marv starts his run 3 times and punt mentality then that could let the Colts back in the game late. Hopefully Marv just butts out or says "attack" until the closing bell.

I dont understand this. Everyone hates on dalton when a guy like luck has worse career numbers but somehow is better.
