Classic Bengals

[cincygrad]

We beat GB and all our fans start becoming delusional about us being contenders.

We lose to Cleveland and some folks lose their mind.

I'll be the fist to predict it..... We beat NE this weekend. They're do for a clunker.... We'll follow it up with a loss at Buffalo.

Let's see: Lewis/Dalton vs Belichek/Brady. Sure, we can win...................maybe once in a hundred tries...........

I think this is the one in a hundred. Lewis has never beat them before.... Brady is less capable of the full assault he normally throws at us simply because his supporting cast is still learning. If they're clicking - like they were much of Sunday night - I don't think we'll win. But young players have a tendency to be inconsistent. Even those that play for the mighty Pats. I think they have a down week and we steal a victory. I also think our fans will celebrate like we won the super bowl.

BTW Doug..... If you don't like my prediction, I would be happy to meet you at the Aunt Anne's pretzel stand at the Dayton Mall to throw down in fisticuffs.

 

[bengaldoug]

smuck. But I do love a good soft pretzel.

After we fight we can meet up with Kramer -- He's probably doing some upscale dining at the PF Changs with all of his winnings.

 

[bengaldoug]

He can afford to buy us dinner, for sure................

 

[bengaldoug]

We're favored, by the way..........

I wouldn't touch that game under any circumstances.

 

[bengaldoug]

Me neither. My line according to my power ratings is Pats -3.5, so the Pats should be a good value at +1.5, but it's their second straight road game, and they are coming off a straight up win as a road dog. Situationally it favors the Bengals. But then you have Marvin/Dalton, the great equalizer.

Exactly. Belichek/Brady v Lewis/Dalton is a mismatch. There's a reason Lewis has never beaten the Pats. On a side note, has anyone noticed Steelers' fans throwing around their six rings lately?

 

[DanBengalfan]

yea, thing is, if the Steelers suddenly become a laughing stock, heath miller gets well, L. Bell starts getting 200 yards a game and all the sudden they are kicking our ass again. so it's best to just be nice.

 

[kramer1]

Can we meet up at the Cinnabon instead?

I'm not sure I need to be hopped up on all that sugar on my trip to the Dayton Mall.

So, you're saying...there's a chance!

Well played.....

I think I saw dumb and dumber about 50 times when I was a teenager.

It is a very under-rated movie. The quotable lines that come from that are hilarious.

Seriously, if that movie didn't make you laugh, you may not have a soul.
