Re: How bad are the Bengals going to be next year?

I checked out the Bengals schedule for this season. If Carson Palmer were the QB this might be a playoff team. Their schedule is about as weak as it gets. I soured on Carson over the past 3-4 years but this schedule is so easy the Bengals could have gone 10-6 easily with Palmer at QB.

Vomitorium. Great new word to describe the Bengals.

Re: How bad are the Bengals going to be next year?

This has to be the worse team in the NFL. Not only do they lack talent on both sides of the ball, but their miscues are borderline hilarious. I tuned in for a few minutes and see that the Bengals are 3rd and 27 from their 1.

Perhaps "it's early" can be the Bengals' official motto

It would be hard to look worse than this if you were trying...

That participation ribbon will look really great in the trophy case this off-season.

Don't you have to try to get the participation ribbon though?

Dalton starting to settle down and make some passes. He's actually showing some poise back there.

And touchdown! Take a picture while you can, folks.

It's like he is really nervous at the start of the game and then settles down. He read that blitz and audibled to the right play to Shipley.

Nice play calling by Gruden to help the kid weather the storm.

Bengals receivers have a case of the dropsies.

Re: How bad are the Bengals going to be next year?

So I assume the NFL works like the MLB. If Bengals are worst record, an Luck decides he won't sign..... I assume Bengals lose his rights, and he goes to another team next year.
