That leaves tough road games at LA Chargers, Cleveland, Pittsburg. I don't know if they can get a 9th or 10th win or not. Maybe with AJ Green back, who knows.
Dallas owner was jumping around happy today on TV. You know what their record is. 5-5, just like Bengals. I thought Bengals played better at Baltimore, which is always a hard game for any team, at Baltimore. We make the field goal, it goes into overtime. It was a close hard fought game. The Bengals can win their 3 remaining Home Games in THE JUNGLE. The road games are a different story.
My favorite part of Thanksgiving Weekend will be Michigan at Ohio State and Buckeyes playing in Columbus helps. They would get clocked in Ann Arbor this year. The next day is Cleveland Browns at Cincinnati Bengals. 2 days where my day revolves around early morning pregame and noon time kick offs. I'll be a morning and early afternoon person, with Thanksgiving pies and such. My Thanksgiving Football is Saturday and Sunday. Go Buckeyes, Go Bengals this Thanksgiving.
Love your optimism Kevin. The difference is Dallas is 5-5 and pointing up while the Bengals are 5-5 and pointing down.
Yes the Bengals played better against Baltimore (I guess). Giving up 406 yards vs. 500-plus is kind of like saying a 650 pound human being that's lost 50 pounds looks better. The truth is they are still not long for this world. Okay bad analogy but I think you get the point.
That's not to say they can't right the ship over the last 6 games. But even if they do they are not a good enough to beat any other playoff contender. They'd be dogs against KC, NE, Pitt, Houston and SD. Love to see them get to the playoffs but another beat-down is apparent. And having to hear the media play that losing playoff narrative again might just be too much to stomach.
