I'll just put this in here since there's no offseason thread yet 
2012 Home schedule
Baltimore
Cleveland
Pitt
Tebows
Palmers
Cowboys
Giants
Dolphins
That's a pretty loaded home schedule with a lot of historically great teams.

Clements is a great guy, but I hope he isn't around next year unless it's as a #3cb. If he can't keep up with Dennis Pitta he shouldn't be an every down guy.

Saturday is better for a good house party. Not a fan of the 1pm Sunday games when Saturday is an option, it's just too early. This is also better if they win since they get an extra day. Going to Houston then to NE that would help a lot.Ironman92;1034256 wrote:Why?

Houston still is tough because of there run game. I might even think about starting delhome bc of his playoff experience he brings and he looked good this afternoon. Ill still take Houston that place should be loud and crazy

Bengals not only make the playoffs, will have 3 draft picks in the top 55 and play a 3rd place schedule next year. Pressure is going to be high next year for this group. Right now is just an encore.

The Jags and Dolphins will be must wins to take advantage of the 3rd place schedule. They won't be going 6-2 against the 2 opposite divisions like they did this year.Azubuike24;1034524 wrote:Raiders, Chargers, Broncos, Chiefs, Dolphins, Jaguars, Cowboys, Giants, Eagles, Redskins.

there is an/are NFL team(s) who don't have (an)indoor practice facility/facilities?redstreak one;1034101 wrote:Well heres hoping for several things to come out of this playoff. 1, go to Texas and play like you belong there win or lose. 2, get better from this and pick up some pieces to make them better. 3, Mike Brown to build an indoor practice facility and improve his scouting department. The 3rd option probably isnt going to happen, and hoping the fans let him know about it next year and stay away until he makes changes.
The Bengals can win this game, Who Dey!

Texan ticket holder here. I think it comes down to Dalton making plays in a very very loud environment. Matt Ryan couldn't do it. This should be more rabid than that. Of course growing up 30 mins from Reluant stadium may make this easier for him. OR. It could be a huge distraction.

I have a feeling all 6 Bengals fans in existence will make the trip 2 Texas and make it feel like a home game for them. Bengals win 27-17.

I see Bengals winning by a FG and advancing. Hopefully Mike Brown doesn't throw his usual wet towel on all this optimism in Bengal Nation.

So sad that the freaking UC Bearcats have an indoor facility, but the NFL Cincy Bengals do not. Hopefully Brown was embarrassed when he announced that a while backSkyhook79;1034761 wrote:Well technically they do.

That is pathetic, there is a local high school in Cincy that has an indoor practice facility. Dont forget the Bengals have the worst scouting department in the league also.

^^^^ Thats why were discussing it, changes that the fans want made. The Bengals fans are protesting by not showing up. I have not bought any mercandise of the Bengals in the last 6 years, and the only game I have went to was this years Browns game and I got a ticket dirt cheap!

I'm rooting for the Bengals in this game, and I think they have a good chance to win. On the other hand, I don't think they go to NE and win. I wouldn't be upset if they lost and Pitt won. I think Pitt goes into NE and kicks the shit out of the Pats.
