Week 6 Cincinnati Bengals at NY Jets

Fri, 10 Oct 2008 15:12:36 PDT

Well, I heard that Carson Palmer is not starting this week due to elbow problem. I am not confident anymore that we will win too many games this season. I will make this one short and brief since I am still do not have my laptop up and running. I will tell you, typing from work is not fun since I gotta get out of here!

The Bengals will more than likely lose this week! We have 50/50 chance but if the offense, defense and special teams do not step up our chances go down. I feel we need all teams to try and get a score. Why can't we be like Minnesota on Sunday nite? MN Vikings did not play that great offensively but special teams had a TD and I believe defense may have scored or just had a steal or two.

I will say, Go Bengals!

Week 5 Cincinnati Bengals at Dallas Cowboys Oh Boy

Fri, 03 Oct 2008 13:50:36 PDT

I have to make this short, my laptop still down, still typing from working and gotta go give blood soon. I have so much to say but not enough time. I don't know how we will play Sunday. I find the Bengals to be so unpredictable but I still like the performance of the defense in the last games. I am not sure if Carson or Fitzgerald is playing. I have not heard or had time to read if Chris Henry is playing, he might as well, we took him back. I just heard local news reports this week, he was on the scout team. I really feel Dallas will win this game unless we come 100% ready to play. Can we shut To up? We will see!

Week 4 Cleveland Browns at Cincinnati Bengals

Fri, 26 Sep 2008 16:14:26 PDT

Well this is the battle of the Ohio Teams again! We have the Cleveland Brown here at Cincinnati for a home game. I know they usually say the home team always win but I am not too sure on some teams. I am not predicting who will win this week; all I am saying is that the Bengals may win. I am not predicting who has the best defense, offense or special teams because the Browns have not come out this season any better than the Bengals. I mean, look at them; they are 0-3 too! The only thing I will say; I don't want to see a game like our last year home game with them. That was crazy! Neither team showed any defense, I don't care if the score was 45-51. A few notes thought: I want the offensive line to predict Carson, Carson needs to release the ball quicker, we still need to get more first downs, complete 3rd and 4th downs, have a better running game and score when we are in the red zone! I don't care what the Browns do we need to pound them in the ground!

Bengals Fall Short in loss to NYGiants by 23-26

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 15:02:23 PDT

We played a good game this week. I feel most players were playing way better than they played in the first 2 games. Carson was showing some leadership; offense and defense played way better. I feel defense was the best asset this time. They did keep Giants scoring down but we need to score more and play the clock better. Some passes to Chad Johnson aka Ocho Cinco was still a bit off. He had chances and dropped 2 but I know one was on a hard hit. TJ still had some catches and a few good blocks so that was good. All in all we made progress this time, if only we can keep it up when we play Cleveland next!

The NY Giants played a good game as only the current super bowl champs should! I have to admit I love Eli Manning's confidence and leadership now.

Week 3 Bengals at NYGiants

Fri, 19 Sep 2008 17:28:04 PDT

This is horrible! I cannot go with my Bengals this week. I am so torn but I have to go with my feelings on who the true players are! I will make this short and give my prediction and tell you why. I will add a personal note since I had a bad week but blessed to say, it was not like the hurricane victims. I pray, they continue to succumb the events of this week. On Sunday, the 14th; we all know now that the Bengals lost to Titans, we had a wind storm in some parts of Ohio and surrounding areas, lost power for X amount of days&some still without it tonight, my personal laptop crashed on Monday, ran out of gas on Tuesday due to people going crazy at the gas pumps&stations ran out of gas but all in all I am happy now! I am still at work, LOL; doing what I love most, BLOGGING! I gotta get out here, I must be crazy!

I Dont Believe It

Mon, 15 Sep 2008 20:21:53 PDT

I don’t believe that we can lose 2 games in a row!The game last week against the Ravens was horrible. You would have thought we forgot how to play football. When their starting quarterback has more rushing yards than our running backs, it does not seem right! When Carson is at the bottom of the list in QB rating that does not seem right! I figured after that Ravens game, we would play better this week.

We started out looking good. I thought defense was showing some promise. I thought we can win this game. The offense was making some strides so I knew we would have the first touchdown. I was wrong, Titans scored first. Well, we got time too make some scores. The wind was blowing strong all over the tri-state and I thought; we can blow them away. I guess not, before halftime the power went off in the tri-state and it must have gone out for the Bengals too! We eventually got a touchdown and that would be it. I didn’t get to see or hear anymore of the game as the radio station they were on, seem to die out like the Bengals. I found out later while listening to one of our local radio talk shows, that the Bengals lost to Titans 24 – 7. Oh well, there is next week!

Week 2 Titans at Bengals

Sat, 13 Sep 2008 19:07:36 PDT

Well! here we go again, another week to look forward to. I so love the Bengals after our week 1 meltdown! Vince Young is out this week with a knee injury but doesn't make the game less of a challenge. Carson Palmer our seasoned QB goes against Kerry Collins their seasoned veteran QB. I know Kerry Collins is older, don't play many games but he is still good! He took the Titans through some playoff games last season and I thought they were going to make it to the Super Bowl game. He lead the players down the field with good ease. I am not concerned about who starts, it doesn't matter with us. All I hope is that Special Teams, Defense and Offense come out to give a competitive game and get a win!

I am going with the Bengals this week, we have just as much chance as the Titans. I feel both teams are pretty equal on talent. We just need to execute better!

Week1 Bengals vs Ravens

Sat, 06 Sep 2008 23:04:53 PDT

I love the NFL! I love the Bengals! This is the day I have been waiting for. A new season, a fresh start, some new players, old ones are gone and some familiar faces remain. The bottom line is; the game does not change. As Herm Edwards has said; "we play to win the game". I hope we win Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. It shouldn't matter that we do have Rudy Johnson, Willie Anderson, Deltha O'Neil; you get injured, make a mistake, get old or it may be money: you may be gone. It doesn't matter that you were dependable; just like our 9-5 jobs, you are gone. As some leave, one is back; no matter how many mistakes you make, one, two, three or more: Chris Henry is back! Well, just like the start of last season, he is suspended for the start of this season, 4 games. We will survive without him. Now on to my prediction for the game.
