December 28, 200916 yr Bengals and Jets get picked up for the Sunday Night Game. Last game in that stadium...
December 28, 200916 yr I went to the game with my son yesterday. It was the first time I had been to PBS, very nice place. The Bengals didn't play great on offense but got it done when they needed to. Congrats Bengals fans, its been a wild season--but a good one so far.
December 28, 200916 yr It wasn't pretty but all that matters is that they won and are AFC North Champions! I really believe this team just needs to go back to being a pass first run second team. Or at least pass the ball more than they do. When they actually seem to open it up and pass it a few times, they seem to get in a rhythm. The whole run it the first two downs, then try to pass just doesn't seem to be getting it done offensively. They will need to pass some more in the playoffs IMO. However they can find ways to keep winning, then thats all that matters. WHO DEY!

I don't know what makes you believe they will all of the sudden open it up in the playoffs. I agree they are way too predictable, but it's been the same way all season.
December 28, 200916 yr ^ Agree with you guys it has worked so far but I don't feel very good about the playoffs really.

Now they have a new philosiphy and it worked well enough to win the division. They are going to take a chance running and playing solid D. It's been the formula for post season success recently.

Look at the Ravens' & Steelers' success compared to the teams that air it out. It's just frustrating because our offense has so much potential.
