Cincy at Texans

[icehole3]

I'll take it

I say we lose by a good 13. I'll say....27-14.

Revenge game. The Bengals are lighting any one up, but the Texans are downright slumping. Their Superbowl was against us, and they won by 1 point in a fluke comeback. Well, it would be a fluke comeback if it happened against anyone other than Cincy.

We couldn't have hand picked a better first round match up.

 

[kramer1]

I'd rather be playing Denver.

Very winnable game. Bengals basically get a mulligan. Better make the most of it. I gotta feeling they win next week.

 

[bengaldoug]

They'll actually probably play better on the road......

 

[vancelot23]

We SHOULD win, which means Marvin will call an idiotic game, and we'll lose by 3.

 

[bengaldoug]

We're in, so I choose to be happy and confident until someone puts us out, whether that's next week, or not at all.....not going to be analytical about this just enjoying the ride.....

 

[kramer1]

If Delhomme plays we will lose handily.

 

[icehole3]

Delhomme's a turnover machine who plays like Johnny Unitas against the Bengals

 

[bengaldoug]

It's going to be Yates, he could have stayed in yesterday's game if they thought they needed him......

It's going to be Yates, he could have stayed in yesterday's game if they thought they needed him......

That would be a huge coaching gaffe by Kubiak (is that their hc?)

 

[bengaldoug]

He's their guy, for the rest of this year anyway.....Delhomme's just the emergency guy....if we have any sense at all we'll keep Yates out there....

 

[kramer1]

Yates has been dogshit ever since our last matchup against him. Coincidence? I think not!

 

[bengaldoug]

Andre Johnson's presence or absence is also a huge factor in that offense.....

 

[Servo]

you're honestly worried about Jake Delhomme? The guy is terrible. Couldnt even cut it for the Browns. Honestly, this is about as winnable of a playoff game setup as the Bengals could've hoped for. I think they get their first playoff 'w' since...well a long time ago (80's?)

 

[Servo]

I'm more worried about Johnson, Owen Daniels and their RB's than some scrub QB. Plus, they're not exactly going into the playoffs with momentum (neither are we, but the BEngals shoudl benefit from basically getting playoff experience against the Ravens)

 

[kramer1]

I think we lose and lose by a good margin. Rice ran roughshod over us. No reason to not expect the same from Foster and Tate. Flacco is no better than Yates and Yates has better receivers than the Ravens. The Texans also have a much better secondary than the Ravens.

I think we get outright owned.

 

[Servo]

I think the Bengals biggest liability is Marvin "Big Game" Lewis. I think that everything is aligning for them, though. The Texans are a beatable opponent. If they were playing the Pats I'd be predicting a blowout but the Texans..no they can win that.

We have a chance, almost wish this was over.
