If the Bengals don't win I might officially just give up on them. My wife's already converted to, gulp, the Bears. Frankly though at least its fun in Chicago at a game. TheBengals need to win to make it interesting.

Go Bengals

The Bengals are hungrier. I can see a 7 point win. Jeremy Hill will have a hay day and make the Colts pay.

I don't know about that, but that is why they play the games.

The Bengals are hungrier. .

I don't even know what this means.

The Bengals have an overall better team, but the Colts have the best player at the most important position. I give the edge to the Bengals. There would not be a single team in the playoffs that I would feel confident that the Colts would beat. Having Luck at QB always gives the Colts a change against anybody but if the Bengals run the ball well and put together a few long drives it could be a tough night for the Colts.

Irregardless of that earlier stomping by the Colts, this is a different Bengals team and can win this game.

I thought they'd lose to Denver due to their run D being #2 in the NFL, and Dalton being Dalton. The Bengals rushed for 207 yds (Hill 147).

For the most part, Andrew Luck is Indy. Their running game is pretty so-so. Their offensive line is 7th when it comes to pass protection .... Cincy's is 5th though. But Indy's approach is to basically unleash Luck on you, with a pretty talented/diverse receiving corp, and dare you to stop them. But they are sorely lacking a balanced offensive attack. The Cowboys put a hurtin' on Indy. Now granted, Indy had already secured the division, but that was not the reason they got blown out. Dallas' defensive front (rush) is one of the best in the NFL. Indy had one run attempt, while Luck threw the ball 44 times for a grand total of 109 yds. Look what the hapless Browns did vs Indy.... pressure and relying on solid CB play.

The Bengal's defense has played exceptionally well over the last several weeks. But when one looks at how the Bengals have performed vs top 10 teams who posses a solid/elite QB, and excel at passing, they are 1-4. Again, the Bengals have struggled with injuries on defense which has been a factor.... but your secondary is going to face it's biggest test IMO.

So here is my biggest question (concern) for THIS game vs one of the NFL's best QBs/passing offenses..... will your CBs be up to the task? Newman, Jones, and Hall, are vets and good; but is age starting to show? Will more playing time be given to talented young players in Kirkpatrick and Dennard?

But get pressure on Luck and the Bengals have a solid shot IMO.
