-Dan_Bengals_FL- Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 With stars on offense, a good, young coach, and an opportunistic defense, the Bengals are suddenly the darlings of the NFL. __________________ Bengals rule!!!!

Jason Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 I love it. Not to be a party pooper though, is anyone else concerned that we are 3-0 against 3 teams that are all 1-2? I'm pumped at the margins of victory, and that makes me think we are real, we are hammering teams we probably should, but a win over a team with a winning record would be nice. Of course, the Vikings could be better than their record right now, and the Browns gave Indy a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the teams were 3-7, then I would be worried about their records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cricket Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 After last night's loss by KC, we are 4th in the Sagarin ratings as well. [url="http://www.kiva.net/~jsagarin/sports/nflsend.htm"]http://www.kiva.net/~jsagarin/sports/nflsend.htm[/url] [Personally, I prefer computer rankings (like Sagarin) over "popularity" rankings. One drawback to computer rankings, however, is that they are not necessarily very "accurate" with limited data (just a few games). The RPI poll (one poll used by the NCAA for determining the teams in the basketball tournament) is usually downright laughable just a few games into the regular season.] Who-Dey!

Homer_Rice Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 We've got a lot way to go. The ideal playbook would only have two plays in it: 1) Kickoff and tackle. 2) D: Interception/fumble returned for a touchdown. The season's young and I'm looking forward not only to more victories, but to overcoming whatever challenges that are out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][post="158489"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post][/right][/quote] I have two main concerns. 1) I would like to see our run defense buckle down and 2) Fix the penalty situation. Both of these are entirely correctable and I think they will be. When that happens (homerism aside), I'm not sure who could beat us??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
