Week 1: Cincinnati Bengals @ New England Patriots

  • gerb131
    TO and Ocho headed off early so Shipley catches a hail mary. I heart Cinci.

    You know what the worst part is? We'll never know or hear why they were back there already.

    How is the dynamic duo today? Not on TV in my area.

    Not good. They have 7 catches combined but only for 50 yards. Plus, at the end of the half the Bengals had a hail marry opportunity but Ocho and TO were already in the locker room for some reason.
  • gerb131
    LOL Tate a 90 some yard td return. Disgusting in all phases.
  • friendfromlowry
    Anyone know the last time a team scored on offense, defense, and special teams? (Almost all in the first half, too)
  • gerb131
    Going to have to bounce back quickly. I didn't see a preformance like this coming from them. Worst game I have seen them play in quite some time.
  • friendfromlowry
    I think if the Bengals play too many more games (even remotely close) that are like this, Marvin needs to be canned.

    Bengals get their first TD. 31 - 10.

    They did say that Ocho went back early to get an IV and that TO left with 1 second left and that he just though the half was over.
  • friendfromlowry
    IV for what -- he hasn't done anything. And that's good football smarts by TO.
    ...Oh well.
  • osu45804
    Touchdown Ocho pulls Cincy within 14
  • tk421
    Bengals score again. 31 - 17.
  • tk421
    Welker looking very good, obviously completely healed from his surgery.
  • tk421
    Pats with a timely long drive down to the 2 eating up the clock.
  • tk421
    TD Pats. 38 - 17. Took up almost 8 minutes on that drive.
  • tk421
    God damn it. I hate this more competitive ballgame crap. It's scheduled this game, I want to watch the entire fucking game. Fucking CBS.

    Bengals banged their head against the wall for 1+ quarters before they realized they couldn't run the ball on New England. It came back to bite them. It should also be mentioned that the defense looked completely awful today as well.

    We started out 0-1 last year too. Lots of football left...

    Week 2 Adjustments that MUST be made.......

    Offense: Bratkowski needs to realize the mismatches that he has in his favor and ATTACK .... those 2 TD drives in the 3rd Quarter were great drives, Why? Because they THREW THE BALL against a inexperienced CB duo..... Carson made 1 bad throw (that cost him at least) that resulted in a TD.. and Benson's fumble didn't cost them any points but it was a momentum changer.

    Defense: TOOOOO many big plays, at least 6 or 7 of 20Yds or more UNACCEPTABLE Zimmer needs to fix that ASAP. And once again letting NE convert on WAY to many 3rd Down conversions I think they were like 8 for 13, that has to change... And NO turnovers which was key for us last year...

    Special Teams: I thought I was watching Ohio State yesterday after that kickoff return after a bobbled ball and goes for 97yds... Bengals Kick return team looked great in Pre-Season so I'm not too worried about that unless it drags further into the season. I guess Nugent's 54 yard FG was a bright spot and looks like the right decision as our FG kicker....

    Gotta get better with Baltimore coming to town next week...... We lost week 1 last year to & it's a LONG season.

    When is Palmer going to be labeled a bust like he is? How did batman and robin do? Same ole Bungals. hahahaaaaa.

    Who is running this team? Their 2 starting receivers in the locker room on a hail mary. Trouble brewing already in the queer city.
