Not Backing Down

[cincyhokie]

2nd playoff appearance in 19 years, playing at home, AFCN champs.

I'll be there yelling my ass off. Win or lose. This is what we wanted before the season started.

Buck up. Stop being pu**ies, Bengals fans.

Well, hell, we've got a few choices and one of them is to be depressed all week.

Seriously, do you think this is going to be the same scene next week? I really don't.

Bengals fans are so used to being s**t on that we don't handle losing very well. It's gotta change at some point.

No sh*t. I got a ton of work to do now that the holidays are done and people are finally back at their desks. Can't afford the moping.

Seriously, do you think this is going to be the same scene next week? I really don't.

I hope not, but even if it is, it's one more playoff game than I expected this year.

Not true. To the surprise of my wife, I never raised my voice once tonight. She asked me, "Are you okay? Your team is getting killed!" I'll tell you as I told her, after the Bengals beat Kansas City last week I knew this game was not to be won. I'm good with it, and looking forward to next Saturday when the Jets travel to Cincinnati.

Yeah.

To my memory, I've laughed twice watching the Bengals play poor football. Once last year when Joe Flacco had that silly 50-something yard scramble for a TD, and often tonight. The Bengals definitely didn't make any serious effort to win this game.

I'd say most fans across town are in meltdown mode right about now. You've been a fan for awhile, you've seen more ups and downs.

I've been a fan from day one back in '68. I've seen my fair share of both.

Aye. Football's a funny game. I think we'll all be suprised at how this team plays next week...at home.

The stadium better be rocking. If the Bengals fall behind early, I do not want to see the entire place go totally silent like it did in the Houston game.

If you have tickets, bring your balls with you!

I'm bringing my balls plus a spare set. Don't worry.

Got my tickets, Will be my second game of the year.

I believe ya, buddy. I'm worried about the tender f**ks in the nosebleeds that are more worried about beating the restroom lines before halftime than disrupting the Jets offense.

Hey now, I was a season ticket holder for 13 years in the nosebleeds, and thats where I'll be sitting next week. Being in the nose bleed doesn't somehow make me less of a fan. I have never left a game early and most of the people up there don't either. Just because I can't throw hundreds of dollars at a ticket doesnt mean I dont know or dont care about disrupting a defense.

Hopefully, it'll be a loud and rocking crowd. No work the next day.

Payback's a bitch, Jets fans. And football's a funny game. Enjoy your tickertape bulls**t and gatorade baths.

That's not what I meant. I'll be in the nosebleeds too. I'm simply too familiar with the vast pockets of nosebleeders (it's probably exactly the same lower in the stadium) sleepily observing the game around me.

I'm watching Sports Rock on Channel 5 with Ken Broo and Atrell Hawkins. The "whoa is me" bulls**t that comes when the Bengals lose is disgusting. Things are never as bad as they seem nor never as good. This is something the fans in Cincinnati need to get used to.

Also, who gave Artrell "toast" Hawkins the right to criticize any of the players and their performance?

Ha!

Here in SoCal, Petros Papadaikis (loud, annoying radio host) who played for USC, said the Jets would lose next week and this week was a "night off" for the Bengals.

Though annoying, I trust his football judgement, as he is usually quite correct.

No worries here mate.

Those "whoa is me" fans need to snap to reality.

The Jets didn't even play the Bengals tonight. That happens next week.

[cincyhokie]

What do these scores all have in common?

30-7, 23-10, 33-7, 24-0

The Colts, the Saints, the Cardinals, and the Eagles all lost on Sunday in their final games.

All will be playing in the playoffs. The Colts dropped their final 2 games and were BLOWN OUT by the Bills, the Saints their last 3 games to include the Bucs and Panthers, the Cardinals were blown out at home, and the Eagles laid an egg against the Cowboys.

How many of those teams lose by that margin again in the playoffs?

Relax........Deion Sanders just guaranteed that we'd beat the Jets Saturday! Nice!

Do us all a favor, if you are there at the game. Get the damn people to make NOISE. Rookie QB in the playoffs....That place should be absolutely deafening when the Jets have the ball. Make it so they can't hear the plays/snap counts/etc.

I'm not going to the game, but those who are better get tailgating early and just get fired up, and make that place an electrified nuthouse! I seen Sanchez trying to quiet the crowd won't happen Sat, and that Rex thinks he's the man, well I've seen Palmer handle Rex's D numerous times. We'll see.

[walzav29]

If you want to crown the Jets crown them. No way we lay an egg Saturday night.

I get the feeling that the crowd will be hyped up for Saturday.

The Bengals got embarrassed the last game against the same team, the fans know that Sanchez can be rattled, and it's a Saturday game. No work the next day!

I think I'd be alot more worried about the game if I weren't going. The only thing I can do is cheer my ass off. No use wallowing in what happened last night.
