Sundance_Kid Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 No QB... you say... Weakened O-Line...both, SEMI truebut then you realize they playedHoustonChicagoMinnySan DiegoJaxNow I know Houston isn't a defensive machine... BUT, they do have Mario and D.Ryans FLYING all over the field...I sure hope LJ gets stuffed against us... but I also hope for a top 18 defense every year...please win Bengals... it's pretty darn close to a MUST win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Huard is 14th in the NFL for passing yardage.And has thrown for more yards than Roethlisberger has.Anyway, I think the Bengals will win. If nothing else we`lloutscore them. The Chiefs have the 29th ranked scoringOffense, and are averaging less than 13 points per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't that good on defense to overcome hurdles like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't that good on defense to overcome hurdles like that.Palmer is a killer when he has a good running game going. His high pick count is because the defenses cheat now with their safeties playing deep. Helps explain why Chad's longest gain is only 39 yards too, an embarrassing low number of yards.The Bengals have a great quick strike offense, which is hurting the team now. That weak defense needs a ball control, clock control offense. We don't have it now without Chris Perry, Irons or Rudi playing. KC should have a good shot running the ball this weekend. Their only good weapon is Larry Johnson and without linebackers he should run for over 100 yards.If they can get around 150 yards from him, they win this game easily.

It's all about time of possession....Keep that D off the field....Preferably for 60 minutes.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
