Week 2: Bengals @ Cowboys

[HoosierCat]

Hopefully this goes better.

I have no thoughts to share on this game regarding the outcome.
The Cowboys are without Dak, their defense looked less than impressive and overall they had a rough week 1 as well.
Without Dak, this is a game we should win, but seeing as how Trubitchkey just beat us, i've got nothing.

Maybe this will resonate with the players the way that Chicago game hit them last year.
They played like shit and had no business winning.

Man the fuck up and get after it.

[AMPHAR]

Home team that got embarrassed on national TV and have an injured QB.    Don't really like that scenario.    But the Bengals just looked like shit so hopefully they'll be laser focused.

Bengals play their A game and its 2 score victory or more.     Spot them easy points via TOs then a back up QB can manage a game just like Pitt.

 

[HoosierCat]

Bengals open as 7 point road favorites.

[HoosierCat]

As expected. 

 

[HoosierCat]

Small Tee update. I’m betting he’s out this week but we will see.

 

[Stripes]

The Cowboys were bad with Prescott. They're terrible now. Avoid another Mike White and we're fine.

[HoosierCat]

Starting LG and starting S in Dallas out.

 

[TJJackson]

offtopic, I know, but.....hey admins.....the banner at the top of the page says its game day. 

and unless we're playing MNF it isnt.

so yeah, this is the kind of world ending shit that keeps me awake a night, so fix it :-)

 

[AMPHAR]

The Cowboys also lost their Pro Bowl LT before the season.    So I'm not sure if that player appears on the injury report this week or not but bottom line they have issues.

[TJJackson]

sounds like he should be our starting MLB :-)

Jury selection and opening today. Still drowning. Any injuries of note besides Clark Harris yesterday?

Higgins in concussion protocol off a cheap head shot from Minka

Actually it was Edmunds that laid the cheap shot not Fitzpatrick ... At least that was what I remembered.

[membengal]

Oh yeah, tee. Thanks. Probably to end of week before we know more I guess.

[AMPHAR]

Caught some of the Cowboys replay and Parsons was giving their RT all kinds of problems.   
 

Not sure if they move him around but there’s your No. 1 key match up.

Good luck Membengal.

Cowboys are truly bad now.  I watched them last night on Sunday Night Football and they suck.  Having said that, they’re at home.  That’s all I can say for them, they’re at home.

[AMPHAR]

Cowboys went from a 1 point favorite before week 1 to a 7 point under dog. 

[cincyhokie]

Bengals by 2 TDs. I'll say 27-13.

[AMPHAR]

Once upon a time the Superbowl Cowboys rolled into Cincy facing a wavier wire back up QB named Jeff Blake.    Probably got PBS now Paycor approved.

 

[HoosierCat]

Oh barf, we get Nantz and Romo this week.

[Stripes]

I'm not sure how Dallas wins this game any way other than Micah Parsons blows the Bengals up by himself. Now, that's a reasonably possible prospect, so it's still something to take seriously.

That or Burrow throws like 5 interceptions. Which is not a reasonably possible prospect, but after last Sunday it can’t be completely dismissed.

I agree that Dallas shouldn’t be able to beat the Bengals. The question now is can the Bengals not beat themselves?
