  1. How much I fight has zero impact on the way the team plays or the outcome of any games. I would rather see THE TEAM fight. But we didn’t see that, did we? I have plenty of frustrations in my life…that I can control to some extent. Being a fan of this team often adds even more frustration that I have no control over (the uninspired play of this team; disappointing drafts; and stupid play-calling). I think as a self-preservation measure, I will (and do) detach myself from the team a bit after a shitshow like we witnessed today. Yes, we still have a shot at a post-season birth, but we FAILED to take advantage of a golden opportunity to greatly improve our post-season standings..with a pitiful display. So, while I do admire you hardcore fans and can appreciate your “we still got a chance” stance, for the betterment of my own health I need to push away a bit. If that makes me a lowly bandwagon fan, so be it. If that bothers you enough that you feel the need to call me out, then I would suggest that you put me on “ignore”.

  3. "They've Gotta Beat Us." What did the team learn last year? That they can win without Burrow. More important, they learned to do a few different things in order to win sans Burrow. Some of that stuff will show up as the next part of Burrow's game and the evolution of the offense. And they'll do it without compromising the stuff that Burrow likes to do best--which means we'll still see plenty of shotgun, 4 and 5 wide, etc... . So, they got Moss because he can block and run from the shotgun. They got Gesicki who is Boyd's replacement, imo. They got a tackle who will let Burrow be more comfortable in the pocket and have more time to do his magic. This off-season is about becoming more flexible on offense, imo, and they have done a pretty good job of it --on paper. Not bad moves on the defensive side of the ball, either. So, Fuck Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Baltimore--they've got to beat us.

  4. Today is Sam Wyche's birthday. January 5th. I always make a point to remember people on the anniversary of their birth rather than the random date upon which they were taken from us. We are made better when important people enter our lives, and are diminished when they depart. Let's choose to celebrate the former. Happy birthday, Coach.

  6. I don't think Burfict lost any talent. He was made the scapegoat for the NFL trying to avoid a massive CTE lawsuit. If he had played for Pittsburgh he'd likely be first ballot HoF. Instead he played for their rival and they crybullied him right out of town for the crime of giving them a mouthful of their own medicine. He just gave what he got and it's a damn shame his coach was clap-clap-clapping along while his team was getting blatantly headhunted. Maybe if Marvin had stood up for his players and pointed out the hypocrisy instead of grabbing ankles... Well who knows, it's done now but I will always think Burfict got shafted.

  8. I want nothing to do with a RB who has never played a full season with starting RB reps and who has had a major knee AND ankle injury in the last 3 years with the 3rd season cut short from yet another injury. There's got to be a better option.

  9. Campbell: All balls, no brains. Kind of like the Brett Favre of coaching. Favre won one, so might Campbell. Ravens: All bravado and emotion. No brains. Even with Lamar playing crappy they had a chance to win. They blew it with penalties, fumbles, you name it. All of them losing their minds. No composure, just embarrassing. Reminds me of the Bengals in Marvin's playoff days.

  11. I don't often comment on Bengals-specific stuff because I'm not a wannabe GM and many of you guys are a lot smarter than me when it comes to football IQ. I enjoy reading what you smart fuckers say. I'm just a fan who has been on this roller coaster ride since '68. I loved the early Bengals--Trumpy, Paul Robinson, Virgil Carter, et all because they were a tough bunch of dudes. I endured abuse from sportswriters at the newspaper I worked at during the Dave Shula years. I liked the '81 team and loved the '88 team. And 2021 was a lot of fun. But I have to say that this year, for me, is a lot of fun and ranks up there with my favorites. I don't even care if they miss the playoffs. These players are fighting, scrappy, never-give-up mothergrabbers who don't give a damn what the world thinks. And they have taken a fair amount of unwarranted criticism from pundits this year. Piss on the sideline jerks who think their opinion matters. And I'm looking at you, Nick Wright. Hot damn, people, I think we all knew that this season was going to be troublesome from the start with Burrow's calf injury. But, shit-fire, there is never a reason to tank. Never, ever, ever. You go down swinging and you take your lumps. Last year, when I was half-delirious in the hospital, it was the Bengals that gave me some vicarious hope and inspiration. Bless 'em. I'm gonna root for them to win, even if they were to trot out a roster full of shitty Walnut Hills High School players from the 70s. I like those guys, too, but they were not very good. End rant.

  12. The Stealers are so delusional, they have been the beneficiaries of so many calls that when they don't get everything handed to them on a silver platter they can't understand why they are not getting the calls. Their whole franchise is built on the NFL ignoring steroid use in the '70s and a missed call, the immaculate reception that was really an incomplete pass. They are like spoiled teenagers who are told to figure it out on their own, but they would rather whine about it to the media...what a clown...enjoy that 10k fine..

  13. Captains are chosen by the players. There are only 53 votes. No more, no less. Those votes go to those who exemplify leadership on the field and in the locker room, not on what you, I, the press, the coaches, the front office, or any of the talking heads in the public or media think. It's strictly a player-to-player acknowledgements of who this teams' leaders are. Doesn't matter at all if you don't agree with any of them, because frankly, you weren't asked. To those grousing about any of these choices.... let it go. Seriously.

  15. There are people in the world starving, or nearly so, and many more struggling to put food on the table. “Fighting for crumbs” was a poor choice of words to describe someone in a worse-case position to make $21.8 million. That’s my opinion, and I will stand by that opinion. 🦗

  16. i got my seats back. talked to 3 people and got pumped to a manager finally and it took some selling i had to pull out all the stops, all truthful, but i had to play the logic, the heart strings, the begging, and they gave in, its possible i will lose a set next year and keep a set.. but we shall see. after the fact the things that was frustrating me the most that caused my rage, is im getting older, my health isnt exactly great, and my kids are getting older, there arent going to be many years that i can spend this time with my oldest son, in a few years he is gonna have a demanding job, family, and maybe kids of his own, and fucking off to ohio to watch the bengals with me isnt gonna be possible. and the thought of the bengals stripping that away from me to appease some assholes on a wait list, assholes WHO DIDNT SUPPORT THEM WHEN SALES WERE DOWN, but want tickets now that they are good, theyd take that away from me for those fans? for no gain in their pocket? probably an emotional flounce but i was about ready to be done with this franchise. you cursed my life with andy dalton and now this??!?!? fool me once...

  17. What is sustaining me right now with a KC win, is the thought of 65,000 Ravens fans, living in a squalor city less safe than Baghdad, all getting back in their cars to drive home with dried tears on their face, knowing that their so-called MVP is 2-4 in the playoffs all time and a LOSER. They will go to bed tonight knowing that Shiesty is the only King of the North who has tasted the pageantry of the Super Bowl and their team of degenerate hoodrats never will. Somewhere in the stands right now, there is a young Ravens fan whose dad saved up the 500$ to bring him to his first game, and the only memory little Johnny is going to have is the existential despair of seeing the Ravens lose on the 2nd biggest stage, while his father curses the entire ride home. I will soak up that Schadenfreude like it is heroin shot right into my veins.

  18. He’s done well in JB’s absence. This was a QB centric offense where EVERYTHING was on the QB’s shoulders and centered around him. Now, it seems like it’s more catered towards the entire offense. When JB comes back next year, I hope this keeps up…it’ll make it easier on the entire offense to not be all on JB’s shoulders.

  19. Pure dysfunction. Love to see it. Diontae saying it's his job to keep Pickens head in the game is hilarious. It's not his job, lol. The Stealers are probably the only entity I can't let go of my extreme disdain for. They ruined a generation of football for me with their cheap shots, and I never get tired of anything bad happening to them.

  21. I would imagine 100% of the posters here appreciate having those tweets and videos in their appropriate threads. I for one do. Love the fact that pretty much anything and everything I need to know will be posted by yourself or the others in one of the threads. That’s the primary reason I come here.

  24. I may have posted this photo previously but the story behind it just got more interesting. Following our playoff victory in Buffalo, this photo came to me via either FB or Twitter. It's stunning. I reached out to the Bengals yesterday to see if they knew the photographer. I wanted to give him/her credit and contact them to purchase a reprint to frame. The team did not disappoint as they got me in touch this afternoon with the gent who snapped this. Photo Credit: Seth Tanner Seth provided me a high-res copy of the photo for free and gave me permission to use it as long as I don't use it commercially. Amazing what you can accomplish just by asking.

  25. LOL. Comparing Jonah Williams to Trent Brown is laughable. Brown is a WAY better player. Zack Moss is light years better as a pass blocker so we don’t have to take him out on 3rd and 5 situations. Mixon is a terrible pass blocker. There is nothing unresolved about Tee Higgins, he will play under the franchise tag.

  28. Personal stance on the Stupid Bowl... I am not watching. Way too much hype and bottom line when I think about it, I don't care for either team. Fuck em' both. And may God Bless each and every friend on here who chooses to watch it. I sincerely hope you enjoy it and all the festivities that go with it. Seriously. I go to and watch Bengals games for the game itself, not the game day experience. This is a game day experience about two teams I don't even like. Fuck 'em. If they ain't the Bengals, they're just shit.

  29. True, the Bengals season has been over for a week now, but the victory star has been lit tonight because every time the Stealers get eliminated its cause for celebration!

  30. Just re-watched the Tyler Boyd 3d and 9 in OT catch. Watch how Tee turns with him and sprints down the field as a blocking escort. That's how teams that want to win play.

  31. Team is too focused to fall for the trap game. Also, I'd sit Ja'Marr and have him ready for the Ravens game on a short week. Our new 3 headed TE monster should give the Ravens a few problems. I'd also take our 4th and 5th receivers over any nickel and dime backs in the league

  32. A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots into the air. "Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. "I'm a panda," he says, at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

  35. I am always against Pittsburgh unless their winning is certain to help the Bengals. I know folks in Ohio get tired of Browns fans, but outside of Ohio, they're hard to find. Stealers fans are everywhere and they are arrogant and obnoxious.

  38. So they waive a guy based on allegations after they went all-in on the sex offender QB. Browns are completely rudderless. They're a couple of tequila shots and Van Halen on the radio away from sending it right over the cliff. Get your popcorn ready, I'm getting a strong feeling they're going to implode as soon as they get 2-3 games under 500. That locker room is gonna be a shit show. Imagine being a Browns fan with your one life. Nobody deserves that.
