Who will score?

[alf8478]

With the exception of the jet game, the Bengals, under Marvin Lewis, have only scored one touchdown in each of their playoff defeats.

So this thread is for predictions for which player scores that one touchdown this week.

 

[alf8478]

My guess is Sanu

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

AJ Green.

Only because I know Mike Tomlin will keep using the awfully bad, and awfully short Antwon Blake on the outside... So basically any time you see #41 covering AJ Green, it should be an automatic score.

Adam Jones

Eifert

That reminds me that in this 7 year run (6 playoff appearances), we've only had one guy step up on offense...... And his name was Cedric Benson.

So I guess it will have to be someone that is otherwise disappointing or will be gone next year - I'll go with Sanu as well.

This will be AJ Green's first playoff appearance, right?

You know, Dalton gets a lot of flack, but AJ is a big part of why he's struggled. AJ makes big plays at times, but in big moments...where is he?

Too bad we'll also never know about that SD game, where they had the lead, driving for a score, and Gio fumbled it. That game was iced if he scores (Yes, I know it was in the second quarter, but up 2 scores, at home and SD wouldn't have been able to run like they did).

Yes, Dalton threw the pick, but that fumble, I believe, gave SD a score and changed the game long before Andy's INT(s).

No QB was winning that game last year. Sanu was the #1, Tate was the #2, and Burkhead was the #3 at WR. No TE, no AJ....

Stop being so dramatic - We had Greg Little!

It would be nice to see AJ actually play a little football in a big spot.

Theres no question that Gio's fumble changed that game for the worse. No one outside of here ever seems to recognize that.

Its kind of ironic how last year, it was Dalton with no weapons in the playoffs. And this year, all the weapons are there, but not Dalton.

Domata Peko scores on a FB dive at the goal line. You know they've been setting that play up for 3 years.

Can we line Vontez up at TE for a play? How about Maualuga?

It's actually a little sad that I trust those two to catch the ball more than I do any of the defensive backs on the team.

Brandon Tate takes the opening KO back for 6. He later proceeds to fumble on a punt return to swing momentum to the Steelers en route to a beatdown.

Didn't Nelson tie for the NFL lead in INT's? He had like, 8, right?

That's not bad. Though, to big one that could have potentially saved them in the Denver game, 1st drive, 2nd half, he didn't come down with one when he collided with the WR. Catch that, and Denver doesn't score on that drive, and the Bengals have the ball at their own 40. Maybe they still lose, but it wipes 7 off the board for Denver, at least for the immediate future at that point.

If Adam Jones is not back returning punts, I'm going to lose my shit.


That is all.

Hue is in love with Fischer .

He's our Dennis pitta. Sure aj green is wide open... Pass it to your backup tackle instead. Yea.

I don't question Reggie's ability to be at the right place at the right time..... Catching is another thing. He's dropped a few this year.
