membengal Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 I always wondered what it would take for a Bengals game to top his 1st and 10 list. Now we know.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/stor...rstandten/week7 Quote
duus Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 I always wondered what it would take for a Bengals game to top his 1st and 10 list. Now we know.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/stor...rstandten/week7Yeah, your answer is that they are leading the division, and playing Pittsburgh ... which just so happens to be the city where Clayton grew up. He often calls in to the sports shows around here, always pumping the Steelers. Quote
Stripes Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 Every article I read gets me more pumped up for Sunday. We have to win this game. It means so much. Quote
rizzy Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 I am just glad that he didn't bash the bengals easy schedule like everyone else is doing. Quote
jjakq27 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 He's pissing me off. I think the game of the decade was the Jacksonville game in 2000 when Scott Mitchell came in and won the game. I think that was the "Kitty Litter game" in December. They had sand and spray paint on the field since it had snowed the night before. John Clayton's got it all wrong.And as far as the Bengals "easy" schedule. 14 of the 16 games are the same for the Steelers and the Ravens and the Browns. We are playing KC and Buffalo while Pittsburgh plays SD and NE. But they play Houston, Minnesota, Green Bay, etc. just like we do. Quote
ShulaSteakhouse Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 There's no easy schedule in the NFL anymore - no such thing.Bengals still have to play Pitt twice a year, KC, et al...,Just think if they were in the crappy AFC South or NFC North and had to play those dregs twice a year.Easy schedule is BS - but beating a truly good team would go a long way in winning over some skeptics, including myself to an extent.

membengal Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Posted October 20, 2005 THAT's your game of the decade? Seriously?Edit: Sorry, jjak...just now figuring out that had to be sarcastic. Quote
derekshank Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 the Bengals should reach double-digit wins.Really John? Do you mean it? Don't go too far out on a limb there. I mean, they would have to go 4-6 the rest of the season to not reach double-digit wins. I think that is a safe bet. Quote

John Clayton's got it all wrong.That game was bad ass, the BEST and I MEAN THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!Punt return for a td in NFl history took place that game.When Peter warrick returned a punt 90yds...but probably ran about 200yds making like 9 guys miss tackle him.Catches the ball, Cuts right...reverses up field to the left, cuts back across the middle, jukes 3 guys out. Cuts back down rthe left side, make 2 more miss.Then bobs and weaves the punter and 1 more jag, and flys past them into the Endzone.i wish i could see that Play again, was the Definition of amazing.

kingwilly Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 Clayton is a dweeb but correct: This is a defining game. He does fail to mention that we sacked Rothlispburger 7 times that game....a feat I;d like to see repeated especially with his bum knee and no receivers. Quote
bengalindian Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 I was at that Jacksonville game. And it was the game of the last decade before Marvin Lewis. Amazing. Quote

It's practically impossible for a returner to run all over the field without someone committing a penalty (not only the Bengals) Quote
Reimersfan88 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 Unless your name is Dante Hall. ( Denver game, couple years back ) Quote
Stripes Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 Unless your name is Dante Hall. ( Denver game, couple years back ) Yep, I was amazed that play went flag free. Hall is nutty, no doubt about it. Quote
NYBengalfan Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 they better win I Dont want to lose my bet, w/ blurp or Steelers7( if the dork responds)But I have a lot of faith and confidence in them Quote
jjakq27 Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 THAT's your game of the decade? Seriously?Edit: Sorry, jjak...just now figuring out that had to be sarcastic. No problem. I was trying to be a smartass and also trying to emphasize how far this franchise has come. Quote
