Bengals Where-Dey defense made Brisset and a rookie look like all-pros. The ultimate dagger would be to lose to the red rifle this weekend

If Dalton plays like he did last week, he's going to make the Bengals D look silly!

All these talking head football “experts “ had the Bengals as a preseason superbowl contender, sorry , I never saw that at all . No running game, mediocre offensive line, weak defensive line, average linebackers, questionable secondary. How that added up to a superbowl contender, I don’t know

I didn't know Andy was with the Panthers now. I like both the Bengals and Panthers, if I were a gambling guy, sadly for the Bengals, I would put some money on the Panthers. It'll be extra tough for Cincy there in Charlotte.

I hate to possibly jinx the Bengals on that one, but psyching up to reality.

Agreed, I was concerned myself after seeing how awful they looked in the preseason. Surprisingly, Pittsburgh are the current team to beat in the AFC North division.

I didn't either Bro until I heard it a week ago when they benched Brice Young for his awful performance.

Hopefully My Lions can keep up their winning ways playing Seattle in Detroit on Monday Night football. The last 2 seasons when these two teams have faced each other, the refs have made terrible calls that have lost the game for Detroit. Hopefully, we'll have a good lead in the 4th quarter so that the refs terrible calls won't make a difference. :lol: The biggest concern right now for Detroit is the injury bug. Luckily though they get an extra days rest due to this being a Monday Night game and after that in Week 5 they get their bye week.

Good afternoon and taking a minute to rant about the Bengals coach. Watched the game Monday and he looked like a deer in the headlights. Yes he got us to the super bowl but I believe many more coaches and former players were the reason. We have lost some key defensive players plus some hurt. Two names that I believe have a shot of coming in here next year are Belichick and John Gruden. Both have good relations with the Brown family but I would take Gruden over Belichick. The reason he should be fired is he seems unprepared every week and you need to make changes at halftime and that is where Belichick was the best I have ever seen.

I expect Belichick to end up somewhere next year for sure, but I did not know Gruden was thinking about coming back. That would certainly be interesting! I've always liked him as a coach too.

Les this season the NFC North that looks like the best division and I can see 3 teams make it to the playoffs. I like the Lions and the coach is great for motivating players it just worries me a little with in game coaching.

He does take too many chances esp on 4th down, but that is Dan Campbell's style to be very aggressive. It has bit him in the ass before and I am sure it will do so again. :lol: The Vikings look very strong so far and it'll be real interesting once we face them late in the season.

Sure wish it were for this season and not having to wait until next year. ;)

On the flip side I wish Barry Larkin would be the Reds new GM, but he's expressed in the past, that unfortunately, he's not interested in that position.

I feel for David Bell as imo its Reds team ownership that needs an overhaul, not managing! It gets mentally tiring re Cincy sports lol! ;)

I might have to record it. I wish it was the early game instead of the later one on ESPN. :lol:

Shocking that the Bills (now 3-1) croaked at the hands of the Ravens (2-2)!! :o

I thought for sure Buffalo would have had their defense / offense together last night.
