Wraith Posted January 3, 2022 Report Posted January 3, 2022 A little early but with the Bengals locking up first place in the division the opponent for 2022 are pretty close to set. If everything goes as expected next week here are your 2022 Bengal Opponents. Obviously, 2 x Balt., Pitt, Cle We play the entire, AFC East so that means NE (away), Buffalo (home), Miami (home) and the NYJ (away) We play the entire NFC South so that means TB (away), NO (away), ATL (home), CAR (home) We also play the winner of the AFC South away (likely the Tennessee Titans), the winner of the AFC West (the Chiefs) at home, and the winner of the NFC East (Dallas) away So your 2022 home games will be: BALT, PITT, CLE, BUF, MIA, ATL, CAR, and KC your 2022 away games will likely be: BALT, PITT, CLE, NE, NYJ, TB, NO, TENN, and DAL 1 Quote

TJJackson Posted January 3, 2022 Report Posted January 3, 2022 OH FUCK NO!!!!!!!!!! *TJ openly weeps^ Quote
HoosierCat Posted January 3, 2022 Report Posted January 3, 2022 With a season under his belt, I have great confidence in Captain Pancake. Quote
Stripes Posted January 3, 2022 Report Posted January 3, 2022 I refuse to think about how the team will do in 2022 while glorious 2021 remains alive, but it's nice to have a glimpse of the opposition that lies ahead. 20-0 1 Quote
TJJackson Posted January 3, 2022 Report Posted January 3, 2022 I'd honestly like to see Carman at OLG, since the left side is where he has more experience but as I say that, the other side of my brain reminds me that this makes the issues at ORG, which already is a big problem (especially next year) even bigger that massive physical power cannot be denied, though Stripes: so AFC Seed 1 and Superbowl winner for the second time in a row?

HoosierCat Posted January 4, 2022 Report Posted January 4, 2022 Speaking of 2022, who expected the Bengals to be the only team in the division NOT going into next season with QB questions? Quote
HoosierCat Posted January 5, 2022 Report Posted January 5, 2022 Bodes well for more prime time games next season. Quote
membengal Posted January 5, 2022 Report Posted January 5, 2022 We are getting five prime time games next year. Book it. Quote
Stripes Posted January 5, 2022 Report Posted January 5, 2022 Let's see, given what we know of the prime time scheduling formulas... -- NFC East bias -- Sexy quarterback matchups -- Obligatory AFC North game, particularly with budding/thriving rivalry Buffalo Kansas City Tampa Bay Dallas Baltimore If mem's right, there's your five. The main missing piece of the formula will be playoff rematches, so we'll see about that. Quote

I gotta think maybe saints in for Buffalo - burrow return to Louisiana screams Monday night game to me. 1 Quote

HoosierCat Posted January 6, 2022 Report Posted January 6, 2022 With Dallas on the sked, the Enquirer notes one more prime time alternative: Thanksgiving. https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/2022/01/06/cincinnati-bengals-2022-schedule-nfl-dallas-cowboys-kansas-city-chiefs/9115848002/ Quote

Good chance they push for that. Quote

I'm up for any piece of media that isn't some poor bastard in stripes falling over instead of making a tackle or throwing a football to the other team. Quote
HoosierCat Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 So, place your bets: are they going Mexico, Munich or the UK (3 games)? https://www.nfl.com/news/munich-to-host-first-ever-regular-season-nfl-game-in-germany-during-2022-season- I’m gonna put my nickel on Munich. Have to ask my daughter how to say Who Dey in German. Quote
Earendil Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 I hope the Tampa game doesn't end up as a prime time game because I'm hoping to get tickets for it. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 If they play in Munich, I might have to plan on that one. Make it during Octoberfest and it's a no brainer. Love that city, plus it's close to Berchtesgaden, which is one of my wife's favorite cities. That would be a fun trip for Mrs. ArmyBengal and myself. Kids not welcome !! 1 Quote
membengal Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 For them to be sent to Europe will have to be one of the nine road games - who of our opponents is willing to give up the home gate against a Joe Burrow-led Bengals team coming off a Super Bowl? Quote
ArmyBengal Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 I don't know but already told the wife we are going if the game is in Munich. If that shit were to go down the same time as Octoberfest, that would be so great. Haven't been to Octoberfest for many many years and my wife has never seen it. Quote
