AGrizzlyBaer Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 ESPN Insider"I want to make one thing perfectly clear. I think the Cincinnati Bengals are going to be the next great team. I'm not talking about just being a playoff team. I mean this team is on the kind of track that leads to multiple Super Bowls.""The 2005 Bengals remind me of the 1984 Chicago Bears. That Bears team was a young, hard hitting team with a bunch of dynamic players and characters, but they were not quite ready to win. It took another year of growth before they were able to fully tap into their abilities.""The historical comparison I make to Carson Palmer is Jim Kelly" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirkendall Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 I saw that too Joisey/Hoosier. He says we'll win a bunch of Super Bowls, but uses a QB that has never won one to compare Palmer to any NFL quarterback. WOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckj414 Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Its worth mentioning that KC Joyner is a total hack. His 'Football Scientist' columns are pathetic. And thats coming from a stat nerd - the guy has no clue what he's talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirkendall Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 He definitely takes a different approach doesn't he? But I like his theories.. (ie, Bengals win 54 Super Bowls). Anyway, I like the different perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsbengalsbucks Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 He says we will win multiple SB's than compares us to the 84 Bears, a team that should have won multiple SB's, but only got one ring. I dont like that, but hey I'll take 1 Bengals SB victory!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Last I checked the Bears won the Super Bowl in '85 and Jim Kelley is a hall of famer (though Anderson should have gotten in ahead of him), I'll take both comparisons thank you.

derekshank Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 He's high on the Bengals... but not as much as he makes it sound. He's a stat nerd, and I don't really buy a whole lot of what he says. He thinks Palmer is a bad decision maker because his stats say so. Kind of a geek if you ask me. Someone who is watching a game can usually tell you who makes good and bad decisions. I don't need his list of deceiving stats that don't tell the whole story because game situations are different. Anyway... here's a link to a 30 page sample of his book where he talks a lot about the Bengals.http://thefootballscientist.com/scientific...ball/sample.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
