Such a dirty word around these parts for many years. Hope this is amongst the plethora of other things they've turned the corner on.

Well they won a tough match vs the steelers after a bye week...
Although the only thing to be concerned about here would be the texans coming off a bye week... well if they had been competitive.

Bengals deserve this little break after playing 2 games in 4 days. Especially as physical as the steeler game was.
Needed it also because this last 8 games will be difficult with tough home games against Rams, Ravens, and steelers, plus brutal road games traveling to San Fran, Az, and Denver.
Bengals are wearing a giant undefeated bullseye on their back and will get every teams best as well.
As a fan it is a boring stretch though.

Sunday will be fun rooting for the Browns, Giants, and Chiefs....
Monday will be a blast rooting for the Bengals! Even more fun if they were the last undefeated team, at least in the AFC. I'm not holding my breath...I don't care what Coughlin's record is vs. the Pats...the Giants suck.

Yes it does. Feels like playoffs and we've been eliminated.

I'm in Florida this week with my gf and she's flirting with the notion of not getting back home in time for the game. I may have to resort to domestic violence .. Well, maybe not that extreme.

We came off the bye sluggish (par the course for Marvins teams), hopefully we don't come off of this break the same.

The Arizona road trip is a long one to take coming off a short week. Honestly it was the only real glitch I saw in our schedule.

It would be even more impressive this time around cause the Giants look bad right now.
There Secondary be bad, real bad.
I hope they can pull it off but i highly doubt they will...

Sucks, since I'll be at work Monday night. I'll miss at least the first half.
