Wild Card Weekend: Cincinnati Bengals at Houston Texans

[buile]

"pirouette" is a term that should never ever be used in football...

Didn't Lynn Swann make it okay when he said he took ballet lessons?

I would put Cincy at #1 or #2 as the team who can beat Denver. The Bengals were really a 105 kick off return given up against the Broncos from potentially beating them about a month ago. Gresham exploited the Broncos' defense (6 catches for 108 yards) . You can exploit the Broncos' defense up the seam. The Bengals and Ravens the only potential competitors with a TE to exploit that (Pitta had 125 yards and 2 TDs vs. the Broncos). Their defense is good enough to give Manning some fits (he had two INTs in that game).

Good discussion. At least we have isolated the source of our disagreement. I think tomorrow's winner will be more formidable than Cinci. Cinci doesn't look ready for primetime.

Well, the Bengals might be choking today (which you can't ignore their choking factor). But from a pure match up standpoint, the Bengals on paper match up better vs. the Broncos than either the Ravens or Colts. Of course, the Ravens are less likely to choke (although they may not have enough talent left) and the Colts seem to be choke proof because they are running pretty high right now.

Wow! Packers get their bye after all.

 

[Joker]

hope no one already placed the house on Minny...Ponder out for the game

 

[patsinthesnow]

Webb might be an upgrade

 

[Rob0729]

Webb might be an upgrade

Isn't whoever plays QB for the Vikes irrelevant? Heck I can hand the ball off to Peterson 30 times a game.

 

[JMC00]

Webb might be an upgrade

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Where was this all day long?

Let's just hope Cincy makes a game out of this at least, so far you may as well have given Houston a bye too.

dalton you dumb ******

 

[The Gr8est]

Why? They whistled the play dead before anyone recovered? Will a challenge help?

 

[Uncle Rico]

I thought you couldn't challenge an incomplete pass ruling?

 

[BritPat]

C****r B*****n with a big play for the Texans.....

 

[JMC00]

I'm not so sure that is a fumble. Ya he is hit but he still gets the ball off borderline tipped pass

 

[ausbacker]

Why would Kubiak challenge that? Seriously.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

kubiack is a moron....clear as day it's not a fumble...

 

[resdubwhite]

Why? They whistled the play dead before anyone recovered? Will a challenge help?

play before. Never gave the receiver a chance to compete for the ball.

 

[PatriotSeven]

Jay Gruden is considered a very good O.C. and is being mentioned as a head coaching candidate.

Not seeing why.

That's not exactly a bad thing for Minnesota. Now they really can run All Day.
