I said in another thread that I think this game will have the Pats confront the first really above-average unit they've seen yet: the Bengals offense. I'm interested to see if they can dominate on the opposition on that side of the ball as thoroughly as they've dominated every other area of each game.
That said, there's no way the Bengals can stop the Patriots offense, so the Pats will still toy with the Bengals overall. But at least it may have some drama to it instead of watching the Patriots stomp around the field on offense and defense.
Not that I'm complainin' ... :eat1:
Strangely, I think our defense will show up big for this game, as they did against the Ravens, especially if Ahmad Brooks gets back into the lineup at MLB. He is a beast.
This to me is something of a trap game for the Patriots. They're rolling along like a machine, stomping opponents...they may overlook the Bengals just enough to keep things interesting.
Plus, the don't allow video cameras into PBS....
