It's a shame our offense couldn't get frustrated enough to beat Houston's backup secondary and put together a single TD dive to avoid another humiliating loss, though.

It's up to the defense. If they generate some turnovers, Andre Smith will eat them.
No, it's not possible for Cincinnati to win.

Well there's plenty of reasons for optimism.
- We haven't lost to GB since 1998.
- Our defense has been good
- New OC
- Marvin is usually great against the NFC
That said, I still predicted a 31-13 loss. It's hard to get optimistic about this team right now.

Actually I probably could use the tissues. Go ahead and send them and I'll use them during the game.

In another year, with a better line and the team not seeming to be falling apart behind the scenes. Yeah, maybe. However, this team as it stands right now with the trouble on the line and the division in the locker room and the turmoil surrounding the head coach and QB are really going to be in over their head on the road against one of the best QBs in the league.

Nope
I do think we'll show some promise on offense but it won't be enough.

I think the only way we can win is if both the ball bounces our way and we get lucky.
A defensive or special team touchdown will definitely be needed and we will need some drops or fumbles by their playmakers.

Hell, they might not have half their play makers. Kinda like Houston.

Why would you have anyone but Green on your team is the question.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Could be like me, and had Jeremy Hill sitting there in round 9.

I cut him before game 1... Still feel pretty good about it. I may keep an eye on ol' Randy at kicker though... Big year for him on the horizon.

I would say the chances are almost zero. It's in Lambeau.
That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if we gave them a good game. Our defense is pretty damn good. Our offense is pretty damn bad.

Bengals DST should be serviceable. AJ Green will at least be a WR2.
Mixon, Dalton and Eifert are worthy of keeping an eye on with the Lazor promotion, but I certainly wouldn't start them yet. Might not even roster them.
Gio is worth an end-of-the-bench spot in PPR. Hill I would cut. Nobody else worth even a flyer right now.

The only way the Bengals win are if the Packers don't show up, and we all know they'll be there.

I have Beast Mode and White outta NE ahead of him. He's on the pine. That said, I'm thinking about holding on to him until after I see what Lazor has in mind. I have Eifert with Gronk.....but I've already offered Eifert up for a trade. No takers.
I've have the Vikings DST....man that was a rough way to open for them, NO and @ Pitt.

Anything is possible in the NFL. I just don't see us having a good chance against the Packers.
