BengalszoneBilly Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 The Ravens whipped them. So can the Bengals! Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Good restraint on waiting to pop this thread BTW. Quote
duus Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 I felt that the Bengals were good enough to pull off the victory in Pgh earlier this year. I also had a horrible feeling about the December game in Cincy. Everything (and everyone) is pointing to a Bengal loss in the Wildcard round. I think the Bengals will pull this out. Not sure how, but I think they come through. Maybe it's a "McCarron Miracle". 28-17 good guys. It's time. 1 Quote
HoosierCat Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Posted January 4, 2016 I was hoping...but no luck in Denver. Quote
HoosierCat Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Posted January 4, 2016 Game time & day TBA at halftime of snf. Quote
Scottishbengal Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Really angry still about the Houston game - this is what the result is, a play-off game vs Pitts without Dalton. I was admonished for reacting angrily about that result but I feel I am justified in my rantings as this is THE matchup we would have paid to avoid !! It's going to take a Herculean effort with a rookie QB to overcome Pitts and not go Hawaii Five-0 in the playoff stats 1 Quote
Stripes Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Nobody is going to give the Bengals a prayer. Hopefully they play like a team being disrespected. 2 Quote

The hate is going to be strong. We'll get a strong dose of the 2005 playoff game storyline, how Pittsburgh owns the Bengals in Cincinnati, and how the Bengals can't win in the playoffs....all week long. I hope nobody gives them a chance and the Vegas line favors Pittsburgh. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Did I just hear Dalton could be back? Quote
gregcook68 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Here's a thought. Does Lewis go with a 50% Dalton over AJ? Quote

Thought he was seeing specialist on Monday ....rushing him back early seems a reach for the stars and underlines the desperation of needing a play-off win whatever the cost Quote
Stripes Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 If Dalton can throw the ball deep effectively without dying, he needs to be on the field. I've not heard anything to suggest he might be ready though. Quote

He still has his cast on. The dr. check is probably just to see how he's progressed. I'd give his chances of playing this weekend at about .0000001% Quote

volcom69 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Don't play into there stupid hands, by fighting before the game, or getting stupid 15 yard penalties, they need to keep there cool. Let them be the stupid ones, be physical and play a clean game. Hopefully that will help give them a chance. Quote

Skunk head was babbling on the pregame show about Dalton being "optimistic" he could play. I chalk it up to talk to try and keep Pitt guessing a little. If they got the bye, maybe, but now? Nope.

cincyhokie Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Predictions on game day and start time? The choices are: Saturday at 400pm or 830pm. Sunday at 100pm or 430pm. My bet is Saturday Prime Time! 830pm. Quote
Stripes Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 I think Houston/KC gets the first game. I expect Saturday night or Sunday morning. Quote
gregcook68 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 I am watching the ball 99% of the time but on a few replays I was watching Fisher, and on those few plays I thought he did pretty good for only a week's practice. Anyone else see more? Quote

Well Elton John proclaimed long ago Saturday night was alright for fighting, so I'm banking on that slot. 1 Quote

If Houston/KC is the early Saturday game (and I agree, I think it will be, neither team has a big national following or represents a big media market) then the night game will be an NFC game. my bet is 1 pm Sunday.
