Ox Posted October 30, 2005 Report Posted October 30, 2005 I saw this poll over on Bengals.com, so I thought I would ask it here. For me, I cannot stomach rooting for either of them, but for the division's sake I'll be taking the Rats.Any thoughts? Quote
CantStop85 Posted October 30, 2005 Report Posted October 30, 2005 I don't see any good reason not to root for the Ravens. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Gotta back the rats on this one. Quote
CBin2k7 Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Tough call, on one hand if the Ravens win, Pittsburgh will have another loss and we will be 1.5 games up in the division.But I hate the Ravens so much, and if they do win it may give them confidence, knowing they have Cincy coming home next week, with a victory over Pitt and Cincy, the Ravens will go 4-4 and 3-0 in the division. I think I want Pittsburgh to win, in order to pretty much eliminate the Ravens. Quote
membengal Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 There is simply no reason not to be pulling for the Ravens. None at all. Quote
ShulaSteakhouse Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Uh, why would anyone vote for the Steelers? Why would Hobson make up such a meaningless poll question? Quote

Ox Posted October 31, 2005 Author Report Posted October 31, 2005 The Browns of Baltimore? Come on. Sorry dawg. Quote
bengalboomer7 Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Is it possible to root for both of them to lose Quote
The_Next_Big_Thing Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 I'm rooting for one of the Sirius satellites to come crashing from the sky and end the game..... Quote
NYBengalfan Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 I gotta say im rootin for the Rats. Im not worryin if they get any confidence against us, Jamal is puussyfooting around so he doesnt get hurt, and we will pick off Anthony Wrong left and right.We should beat Baltimore no matter if they win or lose, especially with their banged up D. Quote
AGrizzlyBaer Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 i hate rooting for baltimore but id love for pitt to get a division loss... *sigh* Quote
NYBengalfan Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 If PIT loses it will be 1 1/2 games again.If BAL loses then there hopes will be done for any playoff cotention.Dont look at it as a lose-lose situation, Im looking at it as a Win-Win situation. NBT Im wit ya on that whole sattleite thing. Quote
Stripes Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Ratbirds. Best case scenario is the Ravens get flagged with twenty plus penalties, and Jamal Lewis can't muster more than 20 yards rushing, but the Ravens win on a Samari Rolle interception of Burger Boy in overtime. Quote
bengalindian Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 There is absolutely, as a Bengals fan, no reason to vote for the Steelers. No matter which team you dislike the most, you're a Bengals fan first, and that means that it will help for the Ravens to win. Though it's pretty much impossible since Ray and Ed are out. Which means a 31-10 win for the Squeelers. Quote
AMC Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 no tough decision here....the more the Steelers lose the better.The easiest way to the playoffs is winning the division because that Wild Card race will get too danged tight for me....what with denver, san diego, jax, kc and more in there.... Quote
BengalByTheBay Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Ravens, no question. Unfortunately, I see no way they can win the game unless Pitt. just plain plays like crap -- a result I would love. Squeelers luck out getting the rats without their defense. This is the kind of game where if you bet on them, the Squeelers would still win, but not cover. I hope the Rats win and Ray Ray pulls his other hammy jumping up & down like he should be in a cheerleader skirt on the sideline. Quote
Stripes Posted November 1, 2005 Report Posted November 1, 2005 Who in the crap voted for Pittsburgh, by the way? I am skeptical that three Steeler fans made their way into this thread, so someone's got some 'splainin to do... Quote
ShulaSteakhouse Posted November 1, 2005 Report Posted November 1, 2005 There is no way the Ravens will win tonight. Quote
CBin2k7 Posted November 1, 2005 Report Posted November 1, 2005 I voted for the Steelers and it's easy to explain. If they win tonight the Ravens will be 2-0 in the division and 3-4 overall. Then if they turn around and beat the Bengals next Sunday the will be 3-0, 4-4. After that the Ravens play Jacksonville, Pittsburgh and Cincy again. With a win, the Ravens would be back in the playoff race and feeling good about themselves. Let's face it, the Steelers need to take care of them and get rid of the RatsThis is my opinion, solely based on the fact if the Ravens beat the Steelers, then I think they will beat the Bengals.

Jonboat Posted November 1, 2005 Report Posted November 1, 2005 I picked the damn steelers but will be rooting for the Ratbirds !! I love to see Balti win & give the steelers a div loss. Quote
NYBengalfan Posted November 1, 2005 Report Posted November 1, 2005 Im sorry I disagree, we're better than the Ravens and I think we had a bad game against PIT. No matter if they beat PIT or if they lose, we'll beat them.YES, Touchdown!!!!!!!! the Ratbirds tied it up.......uughhh I cant believe Im rooting for the Ratbirds Quote
AGrizzlyBaer Posted November 1, 2005 Report Posted November 1, 2005 best case ravens win in a hard fight in which big ben gets hurt Quote
