I know I know ... who gives a flying F you effing effer! about the Bengals. I'm eating a bit of humble pie at the moment because I didn't think there was a snowball's chance the Bungs would beat the Ravens in Baltimore.

Who thinks the Bungs can beat New England?

Being from Cincinnati, I'll say they can beat anyone....though I'm not always right...

Here we go Cincy, HERE WE GO!!!!!!

Cincy 2 weeks ago took Pittsburgh to the wire. They have won 6 of the last 7 and are peaking.

Carson Palmer is showing why he will be a great QB and Chad Johnson is finally coming alive.

The Bengals D (except for last week against the Browns) has been underrated all season long.

Cincy has a pretty decent schedule left and even with a loss to the Pats (which is a game the Bengals could surprise) stand a chance to make the playoffs.

I don't have grandiose visions of a Bengals Superbowl this year but I can see them becoming a powerhouse, by next season and definately being a playoff team this year.

Super Bowl IMHO will be the Pats and Eagles.

Congrats to the Bengals, they deserved the win.

Of course they were lucky McAllister was too hurt to play Johnson as physical as he always has, and CJ was able to explode.

wow, 24 points in the 4th qtr. AT Baltimore!?!? great comeback by the Bengals!

btw: their last, previous road victory against a team with a winning record... was in 1990!!!

Cross-Over

That is one of the worst losses I have ever experienced as a fan. I think I know how Bronco fans felt last week against the Raiders. Both the Ravens and Broncos are former Super Bowl champs and recent playoff teams, yet get beat at home by divisional teams with worse records. Also, Champ Bailey (praised as one of the best corners) and the Baltimore secondary (praised as one of the best in the league) looked like shit.

dylanmarsh

Carson and Company look like they could be a really pain come playoff time (if they make it). Excluding the Browns' 48 points, the Bengals' D has actually been pretty decent. Granted, I don't think they could get by the Pats or Pittsburgh, but I could see them taking out the Colts or Chargers.

bond007

here's the Bengals' remaining schedule:

at New England (11-1)
vs. Buffalo (6-6)
vs. NY Giants (5-7)
at Philadelphia (11-1)

most likely, the Bengals will finish 8-8... but, even if they somehow go 9-7, it's likely that they'll still miss the playoffs.

Blackthorn

The 4th quarter seemed like a combination of the Bengals all of the sudden playing extremely well and the Raven's having a major of a let down. Still -- Palmer threw for 380 yards so you are correct. The Raven's secondary didn't cover well. Kudos to the O-line of the Bengals. Palmer had time to throw and for once the receivers ran decent routes.

No way should that have happened. Theres got to be some excuse. I just haven't come up with it yet. .

Cincy deserved that win. I don't see them making the playoffs though. Next year, maybe.

As a Steelers fan, I'm quite happy with the Bungels win!

tspikes51

Oh, man, this is great!!! All of the bandwagon fans who have seen the Bengals win 14 games so far in the last 2 years don't know how great it is (and how painful it was to see them only win about that many between 1993 and 2001). I can't wait to see what Carson will do next year, esp. with TJ Houshmenzadeh's recent improvement, Peter Warrick's return, and CJ's making other defenses sick.

As far as this year goes, we might knock off the Pats next week (that motherfucking crybaby asshole Dillon won't get even 50 yards), and I can't forsee the New York Mannings or the Tomatoheads beating us (although seeing Takeo Spikes back in Cincy will be fun). Since they pass a lot and we have so many interceptions on the year, we might knock off the Eagles.

I would be more than happy to see Ben and the Steelers win it all this year though.

Hahahahahaha. Thanks, I needed that one.

Shpoop

they arent invincible, you know
this is the NFL, anything can happen.

that being said, im looking for the dolphins to knock down the pats on the 20th!!

Cross-Over

If the Dolphins beat the Pats, I will stand up against the wall and let you kick me in the groin as hard as you can, repeatedly.

dylanmarsh

I will run cyber-naked through every forum I have access to, if the Pats lose to the Dolphins this season.

Shpoop

yea i was kidding, its not gonna happen...but at least i get some nice rewards if it does now!

Rdr4evr

Bengals took care of the 10-0 Cheifs last season, whats to say they can't beat the Patsies? Patsies are not invincible, they are a very beatable team, it's just a matter of making minimal mistakes.

yoyoyobro

Loved the Bengals win!!!! AS it helped buffalo and I can't wait to beat the bengals on our way to the PLAYOFFS next week! GO BILLS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dylanmarsh

I was waiting for you to chime in!

It's time for you to forgive the tuck rule and love the Silver and Blue of the Patriots.

Rdr4evr

My heart belongs to the silver and black.......and the tuck rule will never be forgiven, NEVER!!! Don't worry man, eventually, we will meet in the playoffs, and when we do, you can count on seeing me in your PMs .

dylanmarsh

Looking for to it.

If you change your mind, however, I'll save you a seat on the bandwagon.

debianuser

Well as we all saw, the pats won today. I believe the bengals killed themselves...the interception by palmer, and the lack of safety coverage that cost them a TD. We are on the verge of being a very good team, with palmer, Rudy and Chad Johnson and Houshmenzadeh's numbers have been very impressive this year. We probably aren't playoff worthy, but I'd like to think we could still have a winning season considering the past 10 years of bengals play.

6-7...3 games left 2 of which we should win.

I live in Cincy, and as such, I still suffer from the delusion that every single season they will win the Superbowl. Yes, it's sad and self-defeating, but you know what??

WHO DEY!

Jakes

Dang i wanted to post the first WHO DEY!! oh well at least i got my case of WHO DEY beer from the 1980's

im from northern kentucky and even though i didnt get to help pay for the stadium i root for the bengals like no other. we made the playoffs last year, and we will win the superbowl this year. we have been loosers for so long the only way to go is straight to the top. axle rose sing welcome to the jungle has to be one of the best stadium songs ever And hearing one of the greatest rock songs from one of the greatest rock bands ever "just rocks your nuts off"

djtestudo

Cincinnati definately didn't make the playoffs last year...
