Freaking Palmer is killing me! If Pennington ends up scoring more than Carson I'll be pissed!

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Anyone know what Chad Johnson and Steve Smith have in common?

Santa Monica Junior College. That must have been a sight.

It was. I went there before UCLA.Go Corsairs!

The interesting thing is that neither of them were considered the best WR on that team. Demetrius Posey was killed in a car accident in 2003. Steve Smith actually started a charity named for Posey.

I know. Supposedly, Posey taught both of them about everything they know.

 

[Peyton Marino]

Rudi heating up now.

 

[Tiger Fan]

Rudi with 2 nice stiff arms on a first down run

 

[mightyeskimo]

Ok Red Zone. Palmer to Johnson. Please!!!

dude we don't give a #### who you have.

Palmer TD!! Yes! Finally! Deal with it or go somewhere else Marino! I couldn't care less what you think!

 

[Joe Bryant]

Any of you guys see closely where Chad Johnson was after the TD? HE was closest to Kelly but 5 other Bengals congratulatng with Johnson nowhere to be seen. Anyone see more?

Sounds like he's upset. I haven't seen many Cinci games due to location but I'm sure he's drawing double coverage. I'm surprised Cinci hasn't found a way to get him more involved.

I KNEW I should have started Nick Goings over C. Johnson! Man, what is going on with that guy this year?

He's catching around 51% of his targets which is low. TJ has been more efficient due to single coverage.

 

[Sputnikv8]

Just flipping thru games and watching a couple series. CJ isn't even in the progression on several plays.

Its ridiculous.

 

[CheeseHead]

CJ=Bust of the Year

 

[Hellfire Snail]

CJ=Bust of the Year

He's definitely in the top five. It's pretty amazing. I liked him better when he was under the radar.

 

[D-BO]

Steve Smith back in??

 

[cnguy19]

its not entirely CJ..... palmer has been off esp on passes over 15 yards

 

[Kilgore Trout]

There was a long pass that CJ caught that was unfortunately just out of bounds. He's not off the radar completely.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Steve Smith back in??

Unless I missed something, he's back in. Went in to get his ribs wrapped but has been playing since. No targets on the last set of downs though.BTW, Cincy has all the momentum right now. Looking a lot better on offense and the D is stepping it up.

 

[bonesman]

another drive stalls from poor play calling.... maybe this team (Cincy) has relied on the big play too often in the past, and they're not really used to moving the chains?

 

[cowboyz]

wow SS is a monster, nice catch

 

[Kilgore Trout]

DAMN! Awesome catch by Steve Smith who jumps up and over the defender for the ball.

 

[cnguy19]

wow balls of steel play call

 

[Disclaimer]

one of the most important catches of the season there by chad.

 

[BigRed]

That was much more stupid than gutsy. Course it always looks good when it works....

PS I know he has decent yds but has Rudi had even ONE carry that was anything other than an up-the-middle crunch for 2-3 yds....wtf he's not that much of a plodder, at least go off-tackle once in awhile.

 

[CA_7]

that sound you hear is Rudi owners....

 

[cnguy19]

palmer looked great on that drive....go cinci!

 

[Stillers Jr.]

that sound you hear is Rudi owners....

That would be me.

 

[NJ OAK]

that sound you hear is Rudi owners....

What's your deal?

 

[bonesman]

that sound you hear is Rudi owners....

seriously.... my opponent this week just happens to have..... you guessed it!.... Palmer and Housh!YAY! draino---->

 

[CA_7]

that sound you hear is Rudi owners....

That would be me.

Me too....

 

[((Morpheus))]

Ditto.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Steve Smith. Another highlight reel catch.

 

[Devius]

wow steve smith is a beast...

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Smith hit hard, struggling to get up.

 

[Frank Black]

I think Steve Smith may be the hands down best WR in the NFL. Those last 2 receptions are so typical of him.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Smith finally gets up, looks like its his ribs that are bothering him.

 

[j3r3m3y]

Smith back in the game.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

And Smith is back in. Tough player.

 

[ATC1]

Costly INT, when they are in FG range to tie it. OUCH.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

This game is over. Cincy is moving the ball very well, and not letting up.

 

[roadkill1292]

In successive weeks, the Panthers have won in Baltimore and just missed winning in Cincinnati. Two road games against two of the AFC's best. They look pretty tough to me, especially as long as Steve Smith is in there. He wows me every week.
