jjakq27 Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 It is truly amazing how the Bengals are all over the board in various power rankings. I have seen them as high as #3 and as low as the mid teens. One ass hat over on ESPN picks them to finish third in the division, with his only reason being, Chad and TO being on the same team is a disaster waiting to happen. Merrill Hoge picks them to go to the Super Bowl and John Clayton said, "The Bengals are stacked.""I guess that's why they play the games"Why is it so far-fetched to predict the bengals 3rd in the division? I think that's a very real possibility. We only finished one game out of third place last year, and were clearly no better than the second-best team in the division by the end of the season. You guys act like the Bengals are some kind of dominant force.I find your lack of faith disturbing............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 It's not pointless guessing, it's educated mental gymnastics. We are have a football discussion b/c we enjoy it. We are doing this for fun. I enjoy football and related discussions. In essence, this is fun, and we enjoy it. We aren't searching for the cure for AIDs in here.I have never understood the practice of not only entering a thread you think is stupid, not only reading all the entries, but then posting you think it's pointless.

I've posted other times in this thread with my own pointless analysis regarding the pointless guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
