One team will f up their draft order this weekend. Who you got?

I'd figure this would be a definite Bengals win.... Marvin Lewis has won his fair share of meaningless football games in December. It gives our fans a chance to delude themselves into thinking that Jeff Driskell is the answer at QB or that Auden Tate is a star in the making at receiver. That said, the Raiders have looked a little dangerous the past couple of weeks.... Like they are actively trying to win despite all early signs that they were tanking. I'm thinking they might come in, build a pretty big lead and then walk out with a win in front of a pathetic 20K fans that must have been gifted tickets.

Raiders 24, Bengals 17

i think you're probably right.

what is there to motivate the bengals to even show up to practice, besides paycheck?

The Chargers won last night. They may end up being the #1 seed when things shake out. The Bengals took them to the wire. The perfect moral victory for ownership.

Expect this team to win 2 of the next 3 and Marvin to be extended.

In keeping with the season.... That was my first hunch. Maybe I'm just hoping for a Raider win.

I dont like it, but Im in the tank the last 3 boat. I wish we had some assurances now that Marvin and Hue will be fired as well.

I’ll let off farts today that will be more interesting and have more substance to them than this game. You’d have to be some sort of sadist to subject yourself to this shit still.

I can't imagine what circumstances would have to be in play for one to attend this game. Maybe some free tickets and a kid that really wants to see a game? Is there any other reason?

A guess if you’re a single guy you could take a chick in hopes she gets wasted and you could plow her. Chicks seem to cut loose a little easier at events like these. I can’t really fathom another reason.

Take a kid? Child abuse.

Jeff Driskel doing his absolute best to make sure we don’t win.

Steelers won and we are officially eliminated. The dream season is no more.

All we have to look forward to is projecting who will win an ‘Marvin Award’.

Boyd, Mixon, and Hubbard.....They'll all win some Marvins.

Looking forward to the article. Ole Butch is really going to reach deep this year.

Just watched the highlights. Looked like a typical 'we're out of it in December' Bengals special..... I'll give this to Marvin - He sure motivates guys to win meaningless games against meager competition. I mean, those Bengal players seemed to be genuinely excited to be playing.

I just dont get it. Lets just pretend we're out of the playoffs Week 1 and maybe we wont be in the shitter this late in the year; seems like we never fail to win when it means nothing.

Joe looked good today, I guess thats the positive take away. But even then, it was against Oakland, so whoopdee do.

Bottom line, if we're going to fuck up our draft position and wreck some seasons, absolutely no one Id rather see us do it to than Cleveland and Pittsburgh.

it's ok, we're going to mess up our draft anyway, it doesn't matter what # we pick at.

Remember when we were 4-1 and had dreams of winning the North and raping Pittsburgh? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

I told people it wasn't likely due to our annual lack of depth and general overall ineptitude. People were like, but Pittsburgh sucks this year. year, right. They suck and we don't. ok... whatever. Figuring out the Bengals isn't hard when you've been watching for a while.
