When has he ever given us credit. Ive dont recall seeing us higher than 6th or 7th last year.

Im glad he puts us 11th.......he is usually wrong anyway

Although I am not overly disappointed that folks like this continue to put the Bengals toward the middle of the league (nice being the hunter instead of the hunted), I am confident that the Bengals are better than the following teams listed above them:

Jaguars

Cowboys

Giants

Eagles

I think that is obvious. Are they better than the others? Well, they will surely have their chance to prove it against most of them ... Steelers (twice), Panthers, Colts, Patriots, Broncos. That's 6 games against the teams that I think are as good as or better than the Bengals. You give me a 3-3 or 4-2 record in those games and I see a Super Bowl trip in early '07.

Who cares. Why does anyone care about these endless, stupid rankings.

The key is to get into the top 8 so we'll be an automatic BCS qualifier.

I saw these recent rankings and didn't want to post about them, due to the fact, they are absolutely WORTHLESS at this point in time. They shouldn't bother with power rankings until week #6 or so...

WHODEY !!!

Obviously they aren't good for much, but it's still nice to see the team we root for so often getting positive recognition from the outside world.
