mancunian Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 "That's the old-fashioned Bengals football," left tackle Levi Jones said. "When we're at our best, our running backs are getting the ball, and our O-line is breaking down their D-line."Read that following the Jets game and it got me thinking how would you define "Bengals Football"?

damiancasey Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Bengals football is the Bill Walsh west coast finesse game sprinkled with inconsistency, poor execution, and dissapointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HairOnFire Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Any of the Bastard Sons of Paul Brown should know that Bengal football means offense first, offense last, offense always, and defense maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Finding coaches who are offensive or defensive "Gurus", only to have those repsective parts of the game SUCK BALLS...Trying to evaluate talent with a next to nothing scouting staff and then wonder how you can have one of the worst defenses in the league for over 10 years in a row...Having fans that would kill for a playoff team and shot at the Super Bowl, only to be disappointed by a 2-4 start in a season they were suppose to contend for the Division title...WHODEY !!!

Pinkygen Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Bengals football is synonymous with Cincinnati itself. Conservative, backwater, incompetent, distrustful of outsiders, and emphasizing personal connections over professional competence. Both give occasional treats (Graeter's Ice Cream, Carson Palmer) to fool everyone about how bad things really are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 It's 10 men on the field for defense while in the red zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishcovga Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 There is no such thing as Cincinnati Bengals Football !Because there is no commitment to winning!The Ownership is cheap, The Coaching staff is mediocre at best, and the Talent isn't smart enough to make a difference on the field!The Patriots will buy a SuperBowl if they have too, but they've at least got the guts to still try and CHEAT !! I'd rather play for a coach that will give every effort to ensure my advantage over the other team than a coach that won't even let me go for it on 4th and 1 at the opponents 2 yard line when our team is 2-4 !!

rudi32 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 I believe the phrase "missed tackles" actually appears several times in the team's mission statement.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwalling Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I hate to say it, but if you look over the history of the franchise, Bengals football is generally entertaining ... losers.Boobie Clark, Ken Anderson, Charlie Joiner, Ike Curtis, Dan Ross, Trumpy, LeClair, Lemar Parrish, Fulcher, Ickey, James Brooks, Boomer, Collinsworth, Forrest Gregg, Sam Wyche, the list goes on and on of thoroughly entertaining players (especially on offense) that rarely win consistently enough to develop a winning tradition.I really thought Marvin might be beginning to change that. This will not happen without a retooling of the defense and an invigoration of the O line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
