ArmyBengal Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 As a fan of the draft, I love the preaseason.At no other time in the season will you see so many of those players actually playing.Not only that, how many times during the actual season can you take your and kids to a game and it not cost close to a car payment ??We all went down to the Green Bay game last year and had a blast.I'll be targeting that Titans game.

COB Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 If I could, I'd take the preseason outside and shoot it. If my kids asked me what happened to the preseason, I'd say, "I took it to live on a farm." They'd be like, "A nice farm?", and I'd say, "Yes, a really nice farm."

Scottishbengal Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 whilst i understand the need for pre-season games in order to polish off play execution, test players, get athletes into match fitness etc I do think they all lack that certain "something" that playing a regular season game brings. I'm eagerly awaiting the regular season sched to be released on 16th so I can see if i've got any chance of catching a game or two this season.The Falcons game may be interesting if shown on the ESPN channel over here but it's something that I'd have on in the background, one eye on the TV and one eye on the mrs bent over gutting rabbits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Of course the preseason isn't going to the same feel of a regular season game, it's a bunch of newly drafted / acquired players getting the majority (better than 3/4th's) of the snaps. That's kind of the point. It's a chance to guage those other players to see how they will fit into what the team does. It's simply part of the process. I just happen to enjoy the part of the process that determines how the team is going to shake out and what the new guys look like.Don't get me wrong, it's not for everyone and I won't say it should take 4 games to do that, but I do enjoy it just the same.

Walrus Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Since we're likely to be spending a high draft pick on an RB, I'm just relieved to see we won't be playing in Detroit. Not that I'm superstitious ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futurebengal08 Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 I like pre-season games a lot. As a recent college graduate who lives in Columbus, i often don't have the time/money to make it to regular season games. A family friend usually gives me his season tickets for the preseason games. His seats are close to the players' families. Last year I sat next to Kevin Huber's girlfriend. Good times... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishbengal Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 I understand where a lot of you folks are coming from.I think maybe it's a cultural thing for me - never having played the game and not really understanding the intricacies of each position as such, I struggle to comprehend the finer details / more subtle aspects of the sport.Just give me a Bengals game and i'll give you a drunken Scotsman with passionate support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Just give me a Bengals game and i'll give you a drunken Scotsman with passionate supportWhat else could anyone ask ??Well, outside of a running game, decent linebacking corps, and more than a 30 something safety ??Oh and lets not forget a playoff win or God forbid a Super Bowl trophy.Like I said, what else could anyone ask ??

HoosierCat Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Reedy did a roundup of "what we know" about the schedule ahead of tonight's release./>http://cincinnati.com/blogs/bengals/2013/04/18/happy-schedule-release-day/His last item is a breakdown of Marvin's record against the teams on this year's sked. I had not realized the Bengals were a pathetic 1-5 under Lewis against freakin' Buffalo! In fact the AFC East looks like kryptonite: 4-16, including 0-4 against NE and 1-5 versus NYJ. Blech. And Marvin has stunk against Indy too, going 1-4. In other words we play five teams that he's gone a collective 5-20 against. Yikes.On the good side we own the NFC North 7-1.

ArmyBengal Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm just curious when they play their games.I know Marvin is real big on Monday night games, but I can see us getting at least one with at least one other primetime game.I can't really say as I care much.

HoosierCat Posted April 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Is this like our third year in a row finishing the regular season against the Ravens?That's the new idea of late season division games to keep teams from resting guys. We also have two prime time games vs Pitt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 2nd week of the season, the Steelers get humiliated on national tv as our bengals kick their old asses all over PBS. I'm thinking about going to that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
