Its just a matter of time before Marvin Lewis runs the team into the ground just like they were in the 90’s. It’s fine by me, evict the team from Paul Brown and re-name it Nippert Stadium, give it to someone who deserves it - the UC Bearcats. Finally we have some football around here to be proud of.

Well another week of excuses, I for one am fed-up. Chad forget your celebrations after and get some points on the board, we’ll see that and appreciate you. Play as a team and you’ll win! play as primadonnas and you’ll not see w’s. Marvin talk to your team not us, we pay you play. and that is what it is all about

Been watching the Bengals since 1968. Always been a cheesy little flea market team with little talent and poor ownership. Now that the Pats have taken them to school, and after the bye week, the Bengals will have an easier schedule starting with Kansas City. They should be ok the rest of the season and end up at 10-6 and make the playoffs. They may win the first playoff game, but realistically, that’s as far as they’ll go.Worst case- 8-8 season- no playoffs.Fun the watch Palmer and Chaddly argue

Rules:

Let’s get something straight. The rule has nothing to do with “stealing” signals. Everyone is allowed to “steal” signals (and everyone does). Everyone is also allowed to videotape opposing coaches (and everyone does), so long as the videocamera is located within three walls and a ceiling (i.e the Owner’s Box). It’s a silly distinction, but one that the Pats ignored. The paid the price of being the best with this one. The media pounced and that’s all it’s about. “Cheating?” Pleeze

Apparently you can’t read. I said it was against the rules, I said they got punished. Didn’t happen to read your response about the fact that the H.O.F. overcoat is class-less though. Or the fact that your team is a bunch of felons. Or the fact that tonight you are missing Rudi Johnson. Or the fact that your team defense is ranked 28th out of 32 teams. Those are facts, right? They aren’t in my way though. Whats that? Oh, you have no response? weird. Pats -48 Bungles -13

One last thing.

The Pats have always managed the game. Running up the score was never part of the gameplan.

Now, the media has called into the question the character and accomplishments of a great team. As a result, we shall all witness blowout city week in and week out.

It’s going to be fun to watch!!!

Question: Would turning the heat up to 95 degrees in the Dome during the AFC Championship Game between the Pats/Colts constitute cheating? It’s equivalent of placing snowmaking machines on the sidelines in Gillette. Would the media at least grasp on to this as a lead story? Wake up people. The media and the NFL got what they wanted last year…a trophy for Manning. This year the media wants to dethrone the Pats Dynasty again. A first rounder isn’t going to get the job done.

Pats have the best O-Line & D-Line in the League…and the best QB…and the best coach…the receiving core isn’t too shabby either. You will all witness greatness again this evening. Keep an eye on the Pats pass protection…a thing of beauty.

I feel bad for those who cling to VideoGate as an excuse. Question to those naive fools. If nobody else is “stealing” signals, why does Herm Edwards have three coaches (1 real, two dummy) sending in defensive signals?

Wake up people. 38-17

Let me ask you this: Which is worse for the league image a coach who videotapes opposing coaches from the wrong part of the stadium, or a wide receiver on a 1-2 team that wears overcoats with “Hall of Fame 201?” on the back in between plays? ……..Thought so.

Jonac-

You are an idiot. Were you aware that you are actually allowed to video the opposing coaches, just not from field level? That means the NFL says its ok to tape the opposing teams play calls but you just have to do it from the coaches box. Did they break the rule? Yes. Were they punished? Yes. Move on. If that is all you have to hang your hat on then the Bengals must really stink. You haven’t mentioned how Palmer is going to do without your op 5 back Rudi Johnson

If Cincy manages to pull off a win tonight all the bandwagoneers will be riding high once again. This has been a week of very unlikely upsets and I for one am hoping the trend continues tonight. I’d like to see Bengal fans circle the wagons and show some hometown pride. This is after all Monday night at home against The Evil Empire. Most importantly, I want to see the Bengals players do us proud and bring the hammer down on those bastards!

By Andrew haug

Some of you people are rather rediculous on your score predicting. Yes the patriots have a good offense but having Cincinnati score 7 and 10 points during the entire game. They have a very explosive offense as does New England and neither team has a great defense. The special teams advantage probably goes to New England as well. But the underdog always has a vital role in football and should never be estimated. If the Bengals can rally and use the underdog role they can win tonight!! C-45 P-42!

So, so sad for all you non-Patriot fans. Hey, we were 1-15 once you too could improve!! Here’s how; first keep your boys on the field and out of jail, second play as a team, third realize the game has many facets, get good in all of them. And you may be right about the “plot” after all, how did Fox sports get the supposedly sealed tapes? could it be that Rogers wife works for Fox? Come on, anyone who ever played any game looks for an edge to win. The Broncos did it in 97 and 98….45-10 Pats

Cincy has a chance if they play like they did against the Ravens. The Bengals need to score a couple of touchdown fast to change the game plan for New England. I’m a Patriots fan, but Cincy definitely has a chance to win this game. Should be a good game. Good Luck everyone!

I can’t believe the Bengals are 1-2, the game against the Browns should have been won by Cincy. But unless there is a complete collapse by New England….I am sad to say the Cincy has no chance winning this game…even if we play perfect football…Tom Brady & Co. will find a way to win this game…..last year we were blown out against Brady who had no receivers now he has Moss, Welkar, and Stallworth.

Nobody’s gonna jump off the Cincy wagon if they lose to NE. If they do, they weren’t fans to begin with. Everybody knew that this will be Cincy’s toughest game of the year, and the likeliest loss. Cincy’s post-season hopes certainly did not hinge upon winning this game. (The Cleveland game, however, did hurt a bit.) 1-3 is not an insurmountable deficit. We just need some players healed and we’ll get our wins down the stretch.

To “bob”: The Bengals are really 2-1. The refs botched the call on Hasselbeck’s catch-and-fumble on Seattle’s game winning drive. We get that call, we run out the clock and win.

Well it all boils down to this. The bengals have the talent they need to win any game. They really dont seem to live up their expectations in my opinion.

I hope the Bengals play hard like they did in week 1, and score touchdowns instead of settling for field goals. Problem is, not only have they been terribly inconsistent, they have mounting injuries practically everywhere on the team. I agree that the Bengals tend to play to the level of their competition. Watson needs to run well, Palmer needs to be and on target, special teams REALLY need to pick up their game, and the defense needs to keep everything in front of them. Cinci 31,Pats 28? WHODEY

By Big C

Bengals need to get consistent pressure on Tom Brady. If this happens the Bengals will win. If not, it will be a battle of touchdowns with whoever has the ball last coming out on top. I predict that Kenny Watson will have a breakout game and will explode into the secondary with nearly every carry. Score prediction: Bengals 35 - Patriots 27.

Anybody is beatable. Bengals need to play perfect. You’re right Sue, hurting Brady would help. Bengals have to get to him first. Bengals are desparate at home in primetime. In the recent past they are undefeated in those scenarios. Patriots are due to come back to earth. It’s a tossup.

By Mike

Besides The Bengals having a 3-0 record in their hands only to p**s it away, they seem to play up or play down to their competition. I think tonights game will be fast and furious. Both offenses will be moving up and down the field, knowing this game relies on touchdowns not field goals. The Bengal defense will have to blitz Brady all game long to have a chance of stopping his offense. Palmer has to hit his wide open receivers instead of over throwing them by 10 yards. It’s game 4!

I have been a Bengals fan since 1970. I hate to say this, but with the horrible special teams play, the questionable defense, and the sparodic play of the offense, I keep wondering if this is like 1992. I just cant see a Bengals victory here. If the Bengals win, I would be greatly surprised.

There is a lot of people in here that do not like the bengals. I mean that is normal because everyone has their own opinions. The bottom line is the bengals are 1-2 and not doing so good this year so far. The defense as usual is the probable culprit. The patriots are good but you have to play mistake free and strive for the victory with them. The bengals have the offensive power to do it and we will see if the defense can stop one of the best wide out in the games today.

Simply put, the Bengals don’t have the patsy schedule like they had the one year in the past two decades that they had a winning record.
