Go Bengals!
*sigh*
I haven't had this much dread going into a game in a long long time. I'm hoping for the best, but just don't expect it.
In a perfect world we'll face some early adversity and actually show some heart and come back to win with the key guys performing.
Second to that would be blowing 'em out, which I just don't see happening.
Hope I'm wrong, but after last week, going against this defense I doubt it. Watch how Fisher's team reacts to adversity, somehow I think ther'll be a difference.

Bengals D looked good on first series. 3 and out.

Lots of running so far. All of the passes have been short routes.

Terrible punt. The wind sure got that one.

CJ has not looked bad so much, Cincy D has keyed in on him when he's in. The offense needs to mix it up cuz it's obvious they are going to him when he's there. Plus give credit to Cincy, they were embarrassed last week...They want and NEED this one.
Peyton Marino

I don't think Johnson matches up very well with the Cincy D. Their linebackers are more fast than they are big, which bodes well for a big bruising RB like White, but not so much for a speed guy like Johnson.

CJ just hasn't had anywhere to run. That said, besides his obvious talent, this guy is going to be a big-time stud in TEN. The only question in my mind was could he be a FF stud his rookie year. I predicted CJ would take over the feature role around week 6, but he's already the starter & I don't think it'll be that long. Watch his 2nd carry of the game on ST Shorcuts later this week if you get a chance. That's why I've said he can run inside. I don't believe he gained a yard, but he powered thru 2 or 3 defenders in the backfield & got close to the LOS.
Without looking, I think he got close to 20 touches last week & that's likely what you'll see for awhile. He'll eventually make White a straight backup, tho.

Crazy wind. Everyone on the sidelines has their pants whipping. The US flag is almost torn off. Both QB affected by this.Palmer's passes seem to have been affected by the wind, while Collins has been somewhat effective...

TD Cincy.

And there goes CJ for 51 yards.

Nobody. Safety was way deep and had him on the angle to sideline.

What's the deal with this? Are they looking his way? Does he have CB1 on him?

Anybody? Somebody has to be watching the game...
Watching and basically it's very windy. Line is not giving Palmer loads of time so he's using the check down whenever possible. Bengals seem committed to running into the wind. They will be into the wind in the 3rd quarter as well.No huddle is helping some for Palmer, but still having to get rid of it quickly.

Marvin must be saving the timeout for the 2nd half.

0 targets for Housh is the bigger problem. Palmer started connecting with Johnson in the second quarter and he's connected with Chatman and Kelly. But 0 targets for Housh in the first half is shocking. How does that even happen?
Michael Fox Fan
Footballguy
Thx! I would have thought Housh would get some TE-like looks over the middle....if Palmer has little time to throw. Man, the whole Bengals team is so screwed this year.
Michael Fox Fan
Footballguy
Who knows? The same way that T Holt only gets 2 targets the entire game in week 1 I guess. Unfortunately, a certain SP poster has both Housh and Holt.
