mongo Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I'm stumped. He said some things on the NFL Network about the folly of taking on ownership in the off season, but it seemed rather benign to me... I got nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you think a Stealer's loss is a good game. And no, no bets or stupid shit like that. So don`t waste you energy typing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mongo Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 It will certainly be an odd game. I think it definitely hurts us because the Steelers will look to spread the effort they'd put into Chad into other areas. That said, I'm not sure it changes what we'd see from the Bengals too much. Fitzpatrick has just never seemed to be in sync with Chad... Who knows, we may see a touch more offense out of Fitz. After all, he's been throwing to the reserves his entire time with the team. They aren't nearly as good as Chad, but their chemistry with Fitz is head and shoulders better. That said, I'm hoping we somehow have a running game, and get lots of turnovers.

Bengals1181 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 well you can say this, a lot of young guys are going to get some valuable playing time tonight in a situation that will never be as bad as it is tonight for the rest of their career.

rudi32 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 man this sucks, I hate the steelers so much, that I would be happy, the way this season has gone, if we could win just this game. But I was listening to Mo this morning and he ran of the list of players out for tonight, and it made me realize, this is gonna get ugly. what worries me the most is our LG and LT are out. Our left side of the line is filled with practice players. sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know it must have been something big, because Rudi violated a team rule, and wasn`t allowed to start. He still got to play. The last time I can remember Marvin doing something like this, was when Henry was arrested in 2005. My whole point was that he isn`t a team player. And this shit just confirms that. So if I look stupid to you, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Details were sparse and fluid and after reaching out to the Bengals, they released this statement: “Bengals wide receiver Chad Ocho Cinco will be deactivated for tonight’s game at Pittsburgh, for violation of a team rule. The Bengals will have no further comment until after the game.†Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
