Hey, Pittsburgh sucks too but they are better than the Bengals. Both teams will have to rely on their offense in a shootout because neither teams' defense is what it was last year. I think Pittsburgh has a bit more firepower.gerb131;1290649 wrote:Pittsburgh? Really?
Truth be told, I'd prefer the Bengals keep Pittsburgh out of the playoffs. After that I'd prefer to see the Bengals get humiliated in the first round of the playoffs.

They just got beat by Tannehill & the Dolphins, at HOME. That should say it all about their legitimacy.like_that;1290652 wrote:Browns will probably lose this game, because they just find ways to lose, but LOL at jordo saying the Bengals win going away when this game has been close the past 6 games.

Anyone who thinks the Bengals are a legit team right now are just fooled. Let's be real here they have had these matchups for 5 weeks in a row (including this game):
week 2: rookie QB
week 3: rookie QB
week 4: God awful 2nd year QB
week 5: rookie QB
week 6: rookie QB
This is a must win for the Bengals if they want to make the playoffs. They already lost one of their gimme games.

I honestly believe we will only see 1 playoff team for the North this year and it will be the Ravens.BR1986FB;1290653 wrote:Hey, Pittsburgh sucks too but they are better than the Bengals.

No doubt. Last year was much different...the division had easy schedules. This year it is much different.like_that;1290655 wrote:I honestly believe we will only see 1 playoff team for the North this year and it will be the Ravens.

Just don't see Pittsburgh going anywhere they are trying to rebuild while trying to maintain a dynasty. They do a great job of covering up the inadequacies of a 8/9 win football team at best.
Bengals are younger, getting healthier but still lack a stud RB as BJGE isn't doin much this year and Scott is lost for year now. As I look at the schedule and the way teams are performing than it's not as daunting as it once was. Saying all this they lose to Dolphins at home and Browns on road I could be eating my words.

Is 7 points the spread for this week's game?

I have no idea what the spread is, but you obviously feel the Bengals are going to run away with it. So what's the big deal about a meager 7 points?

with Haden back, i think he plays pissed off and shuts green down. I look for the Browns to get the first W

There is no way the Bengals should win this one going away. Bengals only won by 7 at home with no Joe Haden and a punt return TD. It will be a close game no matter what. Bengals may win but it won't be pretty.

Definitely not. I've said all along I call a spade a spade. If the Bengals were bad I would say they were bad. It's no different with the Browns. It was apparent after their first matchup as to the quality of their team. That's why I said "you gotta beat the bad teams."
Just like the Bengals should have beat Miami. Wins are hard enough in the NFL

Even the savior Joe Haden who hasn't seen game action and covered nobody close to AJ in practice let alone on a Sunday will shut AJ down. AJ is coming off one his worst and I use that term loosely games as a Bengal. It won't be the same Sunday.Pick6;1290734 wrote:with Haden back, i think he plays pissed off and shuts green down.

No biggie. Was just curious. I was thinking it might be more than 7.
If you were like_that or CoA, I probably wouldn't take the bet, but because I like you as a poster I will do it
