Section 310 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 ...check out the top 10. There are only 2 NFC teams in the mix. The top 4 are all AFC clubs. It could be a bloodbath to get to the Superbowl in this Conference. The Bengals D had better be ready to step up to the plate.sagarin as of 12/19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Yeah the more I think about match-ups against either the Chargers, Steelers or Chiefs - I cringe. I'd almost rather see the Chargers if it's going to be this damn cold here all winter, to take them out of their element.It's hard to imagine this team stopping Gates/Tomlinson or Gonzalez/Johnson, and Pitt is going to want revenge and be out for blood - not sure if the Bengals' can match their intensity again.So please give us Jacksonville! I just want them to get to the 2nd game somehow and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derekshank Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Bummer. I was hoping that by dominating the Lions, and the Broncos looking weak 2 weeks in a row, we'd jump them. Oh well... it's all meaningless. The Broncos have looked very beatable... and San Diego is showing that they should be able to beat them. Hopefully we'll show we're better than them... and get that 2nd seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Section 310 Posted December 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 I would prefer a matchup against the Chiefs (weak D) or the Jags (not used to the cold and Fat Albert still nursing a sore foot). SD has a good defense and offensive weapons to come in here and win. The Steelers would also be a dogfight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brew Man Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Prisco actually has us in the top 5, man I cant stand that guy....http://cbs.sportsline.com/nfl/story/9107946 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spazz70 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 i look at it this way, if we play the first round we are home against Pitt, if we get the bye and second round, chances are it is still Pitt. Look at all teams winning out and SD beating Denver giving us the bye, still looks like Pitt, lol everything is coming up Pittsbutt. but fine we will hand them their lunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripes Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 What does it take to pass up those Broncos? I figured we'd done enough already to make it happen, but oh well. Stupid power rankings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalboomer7 Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Pretty much only a Broncos loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 RANKINGSHere are Carucci's rankings. He has us where I think we deserve to be. I thik we're better than Seattle too, but I can certainly understand us not being ranked that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
