Fake Game 1: Bengals @ Eagles

[HoosierCat]

Per local media, Eagles are likely to play starters on defense but not offense.

Way to not fumble on the goal line, Hudson.

[WelshBengal]

Nice opening drive against backups, but hey the O looks on point.  That's it now firsts can sit.

[ArmyBengal]

Well, minus Patrick’s hold that was about all you could ask for for the season’s first drive.

Fairchild looked good on that drive for the o-line.

Yup. They should have dominated and did, which is what you want to see.

[WelshBengal]

Blind squirrel, acorn.

[WelshBengal]

Red zone D held until that tush push or whatever you want to call that BS play.  I don't think Al will be happy with that from the 1st D

[HoosierCat]

That Jamarr Chase guy is pretty good.

[WelshBengal]

2 Drives 2 TD's thats enough now Zac SIT THEM.........

[ArmyBengal]

I swear to God if this defense blows another season for this offense, my TV will NOT survive.

[ArmyBengal]

Still hate the Newton pick.

[ArmyBengal]

Jenkins looking good

[ArmyBengal]

Yeah acorn indeed Hoosier, Murphy just looks lost out there.

[WelshBengal]

Not seen Stewart yet is he playing with the 2nd team D?

[WelshBengal]

NM there he is.

[ArmyBengal]

No Stewart yet

[HoosierCat]

Minor victory

[ArmyBengal]

Held them to a FG.

Ok

[WelshBengal]

I think Stewart caused the rollout on that 3rd down incompletion.

[ArmyBengal]

Yep my bad

[ArmyBengal]

Nice return wiped out

[ArmyBengal]

Backups in.
