  1. Is it possible that Palmer's suckiness was because his shoulder is actually hurt? He just seemed to suck real bad and I forgot about the hurt shoulder talk. Like an idiot I watched the replay on the NFL network and he missed so many throws, but then again Chad missed a bunch of catches. I'm starting to think TJ may be the steak and Johnson the sizzle.

  2. I love Marvin, and I love the way he has made the Bengals a competitive team, but the loss at home to Cleveland in his 1st year and last weeks Bronco loss tells me the team isn't responding to something. It's strange, but I have no feeling whasoever that the Shanahan Bronocs or Mangini teams will lose this weekend because so much is on the line. They will have their guys ready. The Bengals always seem to fold in the big ones. I don't know if it's youth, character, planning, or talent. It's just a bummer.

  3. This is the problem. It is not enough to play for a winning record. Oh boy. The Bengals sweep the Steelers. That would be something in the pre-Marvin era, but not now. There is no reason that we shouldn't be talking homefield advantage. I think as fans we should be beyond just being competitive. If we raise or expectations than maybe the players will as well.

  4. I agree, but how they lost Monday is the same recipe that caused the majority of their losses this year. They have to make the other team stop them. They should stop themselves. 2-4 against the division leaders and 0-2 blowouts against the big dogs. Manning and Brady. The O-line makes a huge difference too.

  5. I'm nervous. I think the old Bengal ghosts are still lingering. I remember Ben when he was a rookie beating us twice, and the Bengals late season performance's under Marv seem to include a huge let down game. I'm spooked that Denver has lost 3 in a row at home, and the Bengals haven't won their since 1975. It's going to be a bummer Christmas eve with a loss.

  6. It does make me nervous that Denver has lost 3 straight at home. They are usually a good home team, and it seems unlikely they lose 4 straight at home. Each week is different though. They need to make Denver stop them, and I'll take Palmer in a shootout over Cutler. After 2 straight subpar games from Palmer he should have a good one soon. Better be this week.

    Spooky Stat is Marvin's record in his last 4 games.

    2003 - 1-3

    2004 - 2-2

    2005 - 2-2

    2006 - 1-1 so far. If they go 2-2 again. Doom. Unless one of the games is this game coming up. Soon though Marvin will have this team finishing strong like the way he has made them start strong.
