Stripes Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I say this game is nearly un-losable because of Kyle Orton. Yes, it's on the road, yes the Bears have a solid defense.He's a freakin' rookie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walshfan Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 X-factor will be T.J. ....they'll double chad and TJ will get open constantly as will Schobel....Look for TJ to have over 100 yards sunday...that swing pass to Perry may work again too.. wasnt that sweet????Carson shold have his way for themost part....Orton will look like the second tier rook he is.....

Humanzee 5000 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 The beauty of the swing pass last sunday is that now, we can audible into that formation and make a defense piss themselves then go wherevener the f**k we want!! They saw what Chris Perry is capable of! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlainThePain Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I don't think Orton will pass more than 15 times unless the game is out of hand for them. The key to this game is going to be Palmer not getting greedy and the receivers holding onto the ball. If we don't give up defensive points, we win.

AMC Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Make Orton throw the ball! If we can hold Jones and Benson down it should be a win. And Carson, no INTs brother man...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 It all depends on the Bengals stopping the run. If they can do that, then they will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalskyspy Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Really this game is not about our offense v. their defense. It is about our defense against their offense. Can we stop them them from having a big running game and contain the passing. I think there is no doubt about that. Hell, the Browns have a much better offense than the Bears.

The_Next_Big_Thing Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 The x-factor in this game is getting guys like Rudi, Jeremi, Matt Schoebel, and Chris Perry involved in the passing game. If we try to just use our WRs we are in trouble. If we go everywhere and take what the defense gives us, we will win.The y-factor in this game is Rudi Johnson wearing down that Chicago interior defensive line.

derekshank Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I voted other... my x-factor is Chris Perry. We haven't had to utilize him a lot yet, but against a strong defense that will be trying to blitz to knock Palmer off his timing, Perry should be able to create some serious mismatches. Doing this a couple of times should force them to put the blitz in their pockets any time Perry is on the field.. giving Chad and T.J. time to get open.I look to see Perry getting used a lot if our offense isn't effective early.

JOZ21 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I think the X-factor will be Chris Collinsworth. You guys should be seeing the Ickey (sp) shuffle all day.LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back on topic -- I agree with Perry. I think teams game planning for the Bengals can only account for so much. I do not believe anybody's putting the screen or check-down catch on their plate and Perry can do some mad work. We got a glimpse last week, but we will see more this week. It's just not fair (to them). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should remind you of a guy named Sweetness. (Not that Rudi is even close to that good, but his style is similar sometimes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodikart Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I think the X-factor will be the third wide receiver. Marvin said that he doesn't believe there is a true 3rd wide receiver. The first game was Walter, second Henry, and third who knows. Washington maybe? I think defenses will have a hard time scheme against us because they never know what receivers will be out on the field. Each of our "3" third wide receivers bring something different to the table. IMO I think it will b the way we use are receivers in the game and they way the bears try to defend our receivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairOnFire Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I voted...other. The critical factor in the Bears game could very easily be how Palmer performs in the red zone against the Bears defense. If the Bears defense has a defining strength...it's how stingy they are in the red zone. If Palmer has a defining weakness...it's how mistake prone he is in the red zone. So take the sack, or throw the rock into the 5th row, but get points everytime you get down there because the Bears can't hang with the Bengals in a shootout unless you let them.

Thus, while I recognized the intent to create humor, I did not see the actual humor itself (ie, the "lame" call). No harm done.I must say, I have reviewed your body of work and my impression is that you're kinda hanging around to see what is said about your bears and imply "disrespect" into it. That's cool. I think your d's getting plenty (if not too much) respect. Your offense is getting none-which is about right in my mind. The bears had a very nice win over a division foe last week and you are right to be happy about that. While we could lose, the matchups overwhelmingly favor the Bengals. Oh, and Chris Perry is the "x-factor" -- check him out on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobcat Bengal Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I hate to sound pessimistic, but I can see this game being one which Carson throws one of his infamous '7 points for the other team INT.' The Bears D I think will create turnovers. Its just a matter of when and if they can capitalize from them.Having said that, I think that the Bengals D will also create TO's, especially with a Green QB at the helm.Damn, this is gonna be a great game.

Indycat Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 Voted OtherCritical factor IMO is the Bengals defense shutting down the Bears offense. Especially the run game.A Bengals 3 Bears 0 final score would fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengalsrz Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 i voted solid running game, if we can get a good running game going, everything else will run smoothly and CJ will probably have a big game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARVIN=W'S Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 X-factor will be the Bengals LB's stopping the run in front of them, not chasing it down from behind. Our DTs have done a pretty good job of stopping the run (yes I know the numbers). I just think if they pound the run at us our LBs better step up( someone aside from Odell). It would be nice to see Landon, Simmons, or Pollack step up tomorrow. WHO DEY, IN MARVIN WE TRUST!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 If I had to put a name down, it would be Bryan Robinson. We all know what our offense can accomplish, and even if it struggles against the Bears D I'm confident that, barring stupid turnovers, we can play field position and still come out on top. But that means the D has to do its job. Robinson has been credited with stiffening our run D in the middle (and the Bears tend to run more over guard and tackle than they do outside), and of the 4 sacks the Bears o-line has allowed, 2 came from the LDT slot.Could also be a good day for Gathers; the Bears have given up their other 2 sacks off the right side (RDE and WSLB), so Jumpy Jr. has a chance to shine.

derekshank Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 I've changed my answer. I just heard that Ogunleye is expected to miss the game (game-time decision, but expected not to play). He is a very large part of the Bears pass rush. This will give Palmer plenty of time to dice up their secondary.I also heard some experts say that the Bears will most likely start the game out with 8 in the box.. so look for Palmer to throw early and often.With 8 in the box, and basically 1 on 1 coverage on our receivers, we should jump out to a large lead early again. (which makes me wonder if those "experts" know what they're talking about. Why would you put 8 in the box when the hottest player in the NFL is behind center?)If both of these statements are true, Palmer will be the x-factor. He'll sit in the pocket and pick the Bears apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
