skyline Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 Oh, man.Nail in the coffin, right there. Quote
HoosierCat Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 Yup, we're fked. Thanks Prisco Obama! Quote
volcom69 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 LOL yep the last time somebody said this team was a super bowl team, they went 4-12. However this is a different team which I love. He is right about one thing, this team is full of talent, now its time to see if it all comes together. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted August 16, 2013 Report Posted August 16, 2013 So some things I noticed.He's predicting three teams from the AFCN (sorry Browns) make it to the playoffs.The Bengals losses are to the Packers, Dolphins, Ravens, and Steelers.Outside of the 3 AFCN teams, only the division winners from the AFC East, West, and South have winning records. All other AFC teams just suck.Also, the Bengals coaches should print off the comments section of this article and post it in the locker room.That should be enough to piss off the Bengals so much they go out there and kill some teams !!!I don't like Prisco all that much, but don't really disagree with him on this one.I truly feel this team is close and have the talent to win the Super Bowl.

HoosierCat Posted August 16, 2013 Report Posted August 16, 2013 As long as I've read Prisco he's had a weird thing for the Bengals. Every few years he hops on the bandwagon, and he always picks a bad year to do it. After the team goes out and stinks it up for a few weeks, making him look stupid in the process, he noisily climbs off the bandwagon and then spends the next couple of seasons crapping on Cincinnati. Eventually though he gets over it and the cycle repeats.Hopefully the blind squirrel/acorn principle is in force this year... Quote

skyline Posted August 22, 2013 Report Posted August 22, 2013 The Herminator jumps on the bandwagon. (Warning: In$ider so you only get a few grafs)http://insider.espn....north-favoritesWe are so doomed...Too bad I can't read it.They were also saying on NFL AM this morning that the Bengals are legit Super Bowl contenders this year.Considering all of this, 4-12 sounds about right.

ArmyBengal Posted August 22, 2013 Report Posted August 22, 2013 Well, if the talk about this being a different team than the one from the days of Carson, Chad, and TJ then the talk of success shouldn't even be part of the equation. It shouldn't even be a thought. There should be an expectation that the team is suppose to go to the playoffs each season and actually be in contention to get to the Super Bowl.I don't think those expectations or the media acknowledging this team are off base in the least.Not in the least. Quote
skyline Posted August 22, 2013 Report Posted August 22, 2013 I don't think those expectations or the media acknowledging this team are off base in the least.Not in the least.i agree completely.It still makes me nervous. As a life-long Bengals fan, your spidey-senses can't help but tingle a little anytime optimism enters the room. That said, I'll take it. Who Dey! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 Oh don't get me wrong, I like to poke fun at the love the Bengals are getting, but this is the first year in MANY that I agree with it.Yes, agree with it to the point of saying the Super Bowl is within their reach. Quote
Kazkal Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 ESPN was saying were the best team in the afc at personal stand point,god how things have changed since akili smith Quote
volcom69 Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 Yea I saw on NFL Network that both Mike Silver, and D. Sharper have the Seahawks beating the bengals in the Super Bowl,The whole thing is this team is filled with talent everywhere, Dalton needs to play his best ball, and there is no excuses why he shouldn't. I agree though last time I was this excited about a bengals team they won 4 games, but this team is completely different. Quote
volcom69 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 Just for fun I was looking at some media stuff, something I normally don't do, and the bengals are a "dumb" team. So there's that, I love reading reactions after a team loses week 1. Least now maybe they can go back to being underdogs that nobody likes. Quote
