Game ball goes to Bengals special teams. Limited Leon Washington to one decent return, had two great punt returns (one for TD), flawless kicking game from Huber and Nugent. It is rare to see a Bengals team doing the little things that make a difference.

It almost makes me think there has been real change in the organization.

Need to pick up a tough win in Nashville next week and talk can start about the P word.

Great win for the Bengals. 5-2 with still playing Cleveland and Arizona at home and St. Louis on the road. If they can actually pull those out and just go 2-4 in the other 6 games they'd be 10-6 which would hopefully be good enough. They really need a win against Tennessee to give the playoffs some real hope. It's been a really weak start to the schedule but you have to beat the teams on your schedule. I'm pretty optimistic though.

What a solid win. They did the little things they had to to get out of there with a win. Next week is shaping up to be a big game with the Titans at 4-3. A win there and the playoffs become a possibility.

I dont think Tenn is anything special. Bengals should win that one too.

Cleveland, Arizona, and St. Louis all should be wins. They are all baaaad.

St.Louis looked far from bad on Sunday. They hit Drew Brees on seemingly every play. Jackson also ran the ball like a mack truck. That team dismantled a good Saints team, and did so with AJ Feely under center.

Granted the Browns injury riddled offense is getting worse by the week, but the bengals beat the browns on a fluke play. None of those games are gimmes. Bengals have played it close every week.

They took the lead on a unconventional play... But they sealed the win with a nice long run by Cedric Benson

They beat the Browns with the help of a crazy play, by 10, in Cleveland, against a healthy Browns offense, with a rookie quarterback making his first start.

Bengals won't win all 3 of those games...this is the NFL, too many upsets and random losses. Rarely ever does a team win 3 games they "Should have won"

Right, which also means they'll win a game they shouldn't win so it will even out to still be 10 wins :)

Very true actually
