I know you got Broncos, maybe Chargers.

[DOM_Toretto]

Broncos won't lose more than 2 games this year. Doubt we can say that about bengals.

Bengals
Opening observations before watching it again
Run, protect, tackle, pressure....check.No turnovers, no sacked allowed, again....+5 in turnovers for year.
No AJ, Whit, Zietler, Burfict, Thompson.
Can Bengals petition to move bye up even another week?
10 straight regular season wins PBS.
Won 3rd down battle on both sides: O 6 of 14, D 3 of 12

Offense
*Gio/Jeremy: 42 carries, 162 yards (3.85), 2 TD.
*Gio: 27-90 rushing, 5-79 receiving....32 touches/169 total yards.*Dalton 116 QB rating. Hell of a throw in face of blitz to Sanu, 76 yard TD.
*Hill with a catch/make you miss, 18 yds
*AJ went to sideline opening drive w/toe. Do you sit him next week to give 2 weeks to get it right?
*Dalton poor end zone pass 2x on 1st drive..got to give chance.
*Settled FG opening drive, 13 plays, 69 yards....0-4 redzone
*Sanu to Tate 50-yards! (3 for 3-148-TD yards/career)
*Pretty spiral into tight window by Sanu!
*Hewitt has some nasty in him...love it.
*Heck of a flip by Andy and skip by Gio for 25 yards.
*Andy creative, escaping sacks, flips to Gio again for 46 yards.
*Hill/Hewitt good downfield blocking for Gio catch/run.
*Drives to Falcons 13, 20 and 31....3 points.
*Gio TD.../Zietler nice block...1st redzone TD in 5 tries.
*10 play/91 yard drive: all runs/passes to Bernard 8 touches) and Hill (2 touches).
*Dane 3rd and 6 catch down middle
*I didn't get end half: run 1st & 20, used :21, then pass drop Gio, pass Gresh, :01 T.O., miss FG.
*Gresh nice catch in traffic/20 yards.
*Fun to watch Sanu used body/long arms to block out defender.
*Hill TD....better RB tandem in NFL?

Defense
*Secondary was outstanding....wrapped/tackled, limited YAC.
*2 sacks, 12 pass defended/7 different players.
*It's fun watching Paul Guenther bring the pressure different ways, from different spots.
*Falcons
Last week vs Saints: 37 points/568 total yards. Sunday: 10 points/309 total yds.
*Matt Ryan
Last week vs Saints: 31-43, 448, 3 TD/0 INT. Sunday: 24-44, 231 yards, 1 TD/3 INT
*Cool scene was Devon Still recorded tackle and PBS crowd came to their feet.
*Newman big hit/wrap to 3rd down, forced punt opening drive.
*Trouble getting personnel in game..10 on field for 2nd 7 2:35 1st/Jackson 9 yds.
*3 INT: 2 Iloka, 1 Hall. Burfict tip=Hall pick.
*Iloka got all turned around on deep by to Julio Jones, recovered, broke up.
*Dunlap owned RT Lamar Holmes....sack after Ryan tripped.
*Dunlap dropped in coverage, tipped 3rd down pass.
*Geathers was blitzing as a LB.
*I'm worried about Burfict. He looked like a boxer, wobbling on his feet a couple of times.
*Geno Atkins tackle opening drive...move laterally well.
Special Teams
*Nugent 3 first half misses? 38, 49 and 55. Franchise record?
*Darqueze Dennard made big tackle of Hester on 36 yd return opening KO.
*Denard penalty on PR...cost 20 yards.
*James Wright nice wrap and take down on KR coverage.
*Dre K and Clark Harris nice hustle to down Huber punt at 1.
*Nice job Huber.

CIN is the 2nd team since 1960 to not turn the ball over or allow a sack in either of their 1st 2 games Other is the 06 Chargers (went 14-2)

[BigDeem5]

Green injury hurts. Don't trust Dalton on the road or in big gamed at all.

[Bcatswin]

This could be his year deemer he dismantled Balty last week on the Road. He played the whole game without Green yesterday or Eifert and did fine. Also marched em down the field 3 more times where they missed FG's. He also loss on of the best linemen in the game in Whitworth.

[jjgold]

Need their top receiver healthy
Right now top 4

[slacker00]

Bengals need to win a single playoff game before this conversation can even begin.

[Bcatswin]

Im saying just right now... But agree with you, but at the same time who can you argue is better?

[slacker00]

Im saying just right now... But agree with you, but at the same time who can you argue is better?

CIN won a couple home games they were supposed to win. Green injury isn't good. NE & BUF definitely better right now.

[megamillionslose]

Starvin Marvin SCREWEDUS is extremely fortunate BUNGHOLES management is mainly concerned with making money.As long as they are several million under the salary cap every year the CLOWN family will happily take any postseason games simply as an added bonus.Nobody as incompetent as SCREWEDUS has ever kept their job this long in NFL history!Candy Ass Andy is extremely fortunate Joe FLACCID just got a huge new contract after his Super Bowl win as Opie's agent had the nerve to demand an extension for roughly the same kind of money after three postseason losses!The CLOWN family should've traded Candy Andy & drafted Johnny CLIPBOARD(aka JOHNNY the JEW)while they had the chance before their division rival snapped him up

[The Giant]

Quit being such a homer, Bcats.

[2daBank]

minus the shithole choking ginger qb yes,,, but no cause chargers beat the brakes off these choking dogs at home in the playoffs so it not possible.. put 15 other qbs on cincy and yea they the best..maybe im a little bitter cause i thought this last year when i had really nice cincy futures but facts are facts, ginger a choking bum..

[Hot Jerry]

They are top 4 teams in NFL !!

[I/O]

This

Lotta peeps got the Pats in the Super Bowl.

[brooks85]

I just keep betting large against the bengals in the playoffs, hoping this will be the year I lose.

[smitch124]

Definitely, until the playoffs start. Then, no.

[Big Bear]

I know you got Broncos, maybe Chargers.

they are top 3. Especially good at home.

[TPowell]

not sold on them on the road.... can say that about alot of other teams too though..

[2daBank]

They are top 4 teams in NFL !!

not really with that qb.. top 4 teams generally end up in the conf championship gm not getting their ass kicked in the 1st round..

[Bcatswin]

CIN won a couple home games they were supposed to win. Green injury isn't good. NE & BUF definitely better right now.

They beat the shit out of Balty at Balty week one...

[TPowell]

They beat the shit out of Balty at Balty week one...

the 2 teams you mentioned are jokes. Houston won't be an easy out from the South. The AFC East isn't anything to worry about. I would say Denver, Cincy, and Houston the only teams with a shot at getting to the Super Bowl

[teaserpleaser]

Best roster yes
best team no

[greenhippo]

I like how this man thinks.

[GunShard]

AFC:
1. Patriots
2. Broncos
3. Chargers
NFC:
1. Seahawks
2. Saints
3. 49ers

[I/O]

I might be on my own here....but when is Lewis gonna start catching some heat??
