HoosierCat Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 I say...Seahawks over Steelers 23-20. Injury bug biting Pittsburgh, Seattle gets rare W in the 'burgh.49ers over Ravens 17-16. Drinks are on Trent Dilfer after the game. Ravens' collapse continues apace.Browns over Patriots 41-38. Cleveland shocks the world.Bengals over Bye 70-63. D can't even stop the bye week but the offense shows up, thankfully. Quote
Stripes Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 Steelers win a close one. Ravens lose a close one. Browns get plastered. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 I say...Seahawks over Steelers 23-20. Injury bug biting Pittsburgh, Seattle gets rare W in the 'burgh.Possibly if they watched the Arizona game film closely. Cards head coach/former Steeler coach Ken Whisenhunt exposed the Pittsburgs offense for what it is. Weak at QB.49ers over Ravens 17-16. Drinks are on Trent Dilfer after the game. Ravens' collapse continues apace.If this game was in Baltimore, I'd feel different, but it's not. Home field advantage gives the 'Niners the edge.Browns over Patriots 41-38. Cleveland shocks the world.You're on your own here Hoosier. No way. No chance.Bengals over Bye 70-63. D can't even stop the bye week but the offense shows up, thankfully.I see your humor is intact.

NYBengalfan Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 Seahawks 21 Steelers 10........... Oh the Irony!!Ravens 16 Niners 6........ With Alex Smith the Niners offense isnt that good, with Dilfer even worse.Pats 72 Browns 10....... Dont have to give a reason. Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 5, 2007 Author Report Posted October 5, 2007 I like the Hawks over Pitt for a couple reasons. One, the Steelers haven't shown they can beat anything but bottom-tier teams year, and two, they're hurt. Ward has been out with a sprained knee and may not be back. Polamalu tore some rib cartilage in AZ and may not play, or be limited. No. 3 corner McFadden is already out and NT Casey Hampton is nursing a hammy pull. Oh, and Big Jen got his foot stepped on last week, so the ready-made injury excuse for him is there. Seattle is going to need to be on top of its game, but they can win.As for the Brown over the Pats, hey, NE isn't going 16-0. Someone will beat them, and why not Cleveburg? Cleveland actually reminds me a lot of the 2003 Bengals: not ready for prime time yet, but they can get hot in any given game, and if they do, look out. Quote
combatbengal Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 HoosierCat. This isn't fantasy land. No way the Clowns beat the Pats. 49ers won't beat the rat birds and the Seahawks may have a chance with PIT, but don't get your hopes up. I was hoping that the Bengals hold open tryouts for local guys that have heart and want to play! Quote

ArmyBengal Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 I disagree as well...Bye Week 52Bengals 2We manage a safety, but nothing more as the Bengals completely overlook the strength of Bye Week !!!WHODEY !!! Quote
stilldiesel Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 Steelers show the Hawks they are for real with several starters out. Ben plays superlative football and is becoming a great QB. The 'Cards had 2 coaches that BUILT the Steelers' team. The Steelers are better than the 'Cards and if they played them a 2nd time the coaching advantages would be negated. Ben escaped sacks many times and converted SEVERAL 3rd downs. The Steelers are the best team in this division hands down. Quote
