I don't know how to feel
#21
Our QB has matured. Our offense looks great. I'm a little worried about our defense, but we've been playing some good offenses. Still, we bend too much.

That said, I'm happy to be 4-0. I choose to look ahead and see the challenges coming up, all the time thinking that a team this good should never lose a game.. Seattle, Buffalo, Bye, Steelers in Shitsburgh, then Cleveland an Houston at home. If we can come through that stretch at 9-0, I'll feel better. But that's alot of football before we have to go to Arizona, which will be a hard game for us to win if Carson Palmer is still healthy. I'd predict that he won't be. Has he ever stayed healthy for a full season since leaving us?

After the AZ game, we take on the Rams at home and take on Cleveland and the Stoolers again before swinging out west for the 49ers and Broncos. Then we close out with Ravens at home. I know it's unlikely for any team to run the table and go 16-0, but that's my vision. Sue me.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

Cautiously optimistic sums it up for me. I'm really excited about the hot start and we're as close to a lock for the playoffs as a team can be after 4 weeks. There's always hope that this team can finally get it done in the playoffs. We'll see.

You have to feel with your hands.

You need to feel like you want to send me all of your money. That's a good start.

Short of that feel the way you want to feel. If you feel like you root for the best team then feel that way. Last time I checked you're entitled to feel the way you want including to feel excited to send me all your money. I'd go with that gut reaction and frankly, I'll like you better that way.

I wouldn't call myself cautiously optimistic or pessimistic. This is the first year that i can remember where i wasn't jonesing for Bengals football by the end of March. Other than the draft, the Bengals were out of sight, out of mind. It took until the start of training camp for me to get the enthusiasm back. That's why, this year, i'm just taking it week by week and enjoying the moment. I was driving down the road today and realized that i don't even know who they play next week.

4-0 is great and i've enjoyed every minute of it, reading any article i can get to, listening to all the Bengals shows. It's been fantastic because i have zero expectations and i just look forward to whoever they're playing that particular week.

I'm fully optimistic. The Bengals are a very strong team, and capable of beating anyone.

I expect that we will lose some games. So what?

Already we should be the favorite to win the AFCN. We will see what the playoffs bring.

Let's enjoy the ride.
