October 11, 201510 yr Author Playoff atmosphere game, Bengals show their stripes once again. Is it to soon to create a Fraud or for Real? thread?
October 11, 201510 yr All these first round corners that were drafted, and they are getting burnt more than a tater tot in the oven.
October 11, 201510 yr Did anyone think this team was headed to the Super Bowl? If they did, yes, for those people this team is a fraud. For anyone else who has been a long time fan and paying attention, they are the same Bengals of the past 5 years, not a fraud.
October 11, 201510 yr Author 24-7 Rofl. This team is far from being considered one of the best. They have played 4 pretty mediocre teams going into today's game. This is what happens when you play a good team. Any mistake is magnified. Dalton is pressing and the defense is horrible outside the front 4
October 11, 201510 yr Author Did anyone think this team was headed to the Super Bowl? If they did, yes, for those people this team is a fraud. For anyone else who has been a long time fan and paying attention, they are the same Bengals of the past 5 years, not a fraud. Yes they are the same as the last 5 years. I meant fraud as in what people were saying about them being a SB contender. I am with you, this team is no different than last 4 years except Dalton actually had good numbers in first 4 weeks against bad teams. Now against a good team he hasn't done much since the 1st qtr.
October 11, 201510 yr Author Is eifert going to be another Gresham where we have to hold our breath everytime he catches the ball to see if he fumbles or not? THROW THE BALL DALTON!!!!! He does 2 pumps and still hangs on to the ball while Jones is running unguarded down the sideline
October 11, 201510 yr I see the same Bengals I have seen the past several years. They will beat all the average teams but they are not good enough to beat playoff caliber teams. This team will get into the playoffs and we will pray they get a lucky break somewhere that allows them to win a game.
October 11, 201510 yr Yes they are the same as the last 5 years. I meant fraud as in what people were saying about them being a SB contender. I am with you, this team is no different than last 4 years except Dalton actually had good numbers in first 4 weeks against bad teams. Now against a good team he hasn't done much since the 1st qtr. Who said they were Super Bowl quality? That is where you are losing me on this point.
October 11, 201510 yr Author Bengals can make avg teams look bad and good teams look great. Never middle ground. Once again Marvin can't prepare a team for a good team. Is Goff coming out into the draft this year?
October 11, 201510 yr Author Who said they were Super Bowl quality? That is where you are losing me on this point. Not on here, on ESPN and even some of the pre game shows this morning. they were comparing them to the 88 team.
October 11, 201510 yr Author I loved the Dalton of the first 4 weeks. the problem is once he gets rattled he really looks bad. today he got rattled and the last 2 drives especially he has looked awful
October 11, 201510 yr Here are the issues I am seeing today that are the same as the past few years and are the reasons why the Bengals are who they are: 1. Offensive line does not get it done against top notch d-lines. 2. AJ Green gets stopped by top notch CB's. 3. No other Bengals receivers are capable of making plays to help AJ and Dalton out when AJ gets stopped. 4. When Dalton has those things happen in front of him, he is not capable of making plays for the team in the face of tough situations. He panics, rushes throws and forces throws.
