Someone needs to tell Ochocinco to shut up. He is poison in the Bengals. Wonder why they haven't gotten rid of him. No matter how good of a WR he is, he needs to be tossed out of the organization.
I don't think Marvin is concerned that Ocho will get hurt. My guess, he pulls his starters but lets Chad stay in with the back ups, everyone is happy.
He's not back. He finally practiced (in a limited capacity) for the first time in seven weeks, but he is unlikely to play in Miami on Sunday.
It doesn't matter who the Bengals put on the field on Sunday night, this team has to come ready to play. Time and time again we've seen the Jets get lulled into playing down to their competition and lose games that they're pegged to win. Hopefully Rex is doing a good job of keeping these guys fired up and not taking anything for granted. The last thing I want to see is them come out overconfident and too relaxed - this is a playoff game as far as we're concerned.
Ochocinco is entertaining. I like him but when Revis is done with him he'll have to change his name to Cuatrocinco. And I do believe the Cincy second stringers will play with the objective of winning the game.
who gives a hoot what the gals are planning on doing? Let them play to win all they want, they will lose regardless.
He's saying the Bengals would want to lose to make it more difficult for the Steelers to get in. They'll have a clearer picture after the early games Sunday. If the Jets win, there's only one scenario for the Steelers to make the playoffs.
Bengals fan here. I have just glanced at a couple of your topics and thought I would help out your debate with this: go to Bengals.com and click the link on the right that says: Bengals try to Rex Jets' Bid. The writer on the website adds to the article everyday so by the time you look, the title may be changed but if it does I will put updates on here. I can't post a link because I haven't posted 50 times. It's near the bottom with the header: Lewis Talks W. He thinks they are too young and inexperienced to turn it off for a game and then turn it back on for the next. The local channels and radio are saying that the Bengals are putting out their first string. There are also a couple of scenarios where even if the Patriots and Bengals both win, the Bengals can take over the 3rd seed with help from other games being the strength of record would change. I for one will be fucking pissed off if the Steelers get in the playoffs so a part of me would like to mail this game in. Not because I'm scared in the least bit of them, but because I have yet to meet a Steelers fan that isnt banging their sister and ever stops talking shit. They all think that they are on the team and are above everyone else because they choose to be fans of that team. Good luck Sunday. Neither of our teams are flashy but both hinge on defense and running the ball so it should be a good matchup. I would only give the advantage to the Bengals because of the experience of Palmer vs. Sanchez. Time control offenses keep other teams' offenses off the field and that is what both the Bengals and Jets are. Wouldn't be surprised if either team made a deep playoff push.
WGAFF what ocho is tweeting? I sincerely hope that the bengals play their first team against the Jets. It would make for a great game and beating them that way would be great. I can't believe that Lewis would do such a thing given palmer's history of being fragile. But lets hope he sends carson out there for an epic battle between 2 fmr. USC QBs.
Playing their first string and beating them only helps our chances of doing it again the following week. I'm not scared of the Bengals one bit, I am however a little scared of the Jets beating themselves this week.
Fuck all this strategy crap. Here's a strategy for you..2 games, 2 weeks in a row, 2 different venues, 2 different full game plans. Best team moves on. They play the games for a reason. This ain't no plea bargain... Bring it and let's get it on..... If we can do that, we have a good shot to beat any of 'em...... If we can't, we weren't gonna' win shit anyway.....
