Week 17: Cardinals @ Bengals

[Prophecy]

Cody Ford averaging 21 yards per reception!

[TJJackson]

I really think you got to give it to Cody to run it in with the game well in hand like that, but whatever

[TJJackson]

STEWART FIRST SACK

[Stripes]

Shemar Stewart just increased his career sack total by ∞%

[TJJackson]

taken away by penalty

[TJJackson]

Lots of good pressure by Cedric Johnson

[COB]

Browns handle the Steelers in what should be Aaron Rodger’s legacy game.

[TJJackson]

so the dead cat bounce is fully underway

[HoosierCat]

Down to 10. We go to 11 if Atlanta loses Monday.

[ArmyBengal]

Anyone putting stock in what these players are doing in the last few games is foolish at best. Yes, you too Myles Murphy. You fucking suck. Go eat some Froot Loops.

[TJJackson]

Players named Myles can't be bad

Look to the left :-)

[ArmyBengal]

This one is proving that thought process incorrect unfortunately for his name predecessor. 

[Prophecy]

My fear is Bengals brilliant "GM" and Ownership will now claim draft victory, and think that Myles Murphy and Shemar Stewart are ready to start next season and will lowball Ossai and let Hendrickson walk.

***Hoping somehow Caleb Downs slips to #10

[Stripes]

Trade up for an impact player.

(in my fantasies)

[COB]

Rudy Purdy throws a pick 6 to the bears on the first play of the game on Sunday Night Football.

This is pretty much it.  They’ll plan to start a lot of these guys next year.  No way they’ll tag Hendrickson at 36 million or whatever his double tag number will be, he’s gone.  Lowball Ossai?   100% yes they’ll do that.  

[ArmyBengal]

Nothing like winning meaningless games at the end of the season to make everyone feel strongly about next year, which has no impact on it whatsoever.

Enjoy…

The Bengals suck

[ArmyBengal]

Oh let’s not forget the fan favorite play with POS lineman Cody Ford because it was his birthday.  I mean what a sight to behold and such cleverness on the part of Zac Taylor.

Im sure that will sustain fans though the offseason. What a fucking joke.

[COB]

There are 9 minutes left in the 2nd quarter and the bears and Niners have scored 42 points already.

So you agree Cody Ford sucks then?

Cool…

[Stripes]

FIRE EVERYONE 

[HoosierCat]

2026 opponents locked in now.

Road Opponents: Ravens, Browns, Steelers, Texans, Colts, Dolphins, Falcons, Panthers and Commanders.

Home Opponents: Ravens, Browns, Steelers, Jaguars, Titans, Chiefs, Saints and Buccaneers

[HoosierCat]

On the draft front: Bengals currently sit at 10.

If Atlanta loses tonight, Bengals slip to 11.

Worst case scenario now appears to be 12. Best case scenario looks like 8.

Depending on the Mahomes injury and uncertainty for 2026, that might be the least interesting home slate I can recall in some years.

Will be making the trip to Houston for that game with my son.

As of right now, I'm going to take a stab at our 2026 record.
17-0

[HoosierCat]

On paper the schedule looks doable. But unless they magic up a defense in the off-season it’s not going to matter. 0-17.
