Closest prediction gets a free chicken dinner.

Score and how many yards will each quarterback throw for?

I'm feeling something like 35-17 Colts.

Peyton throws for 315.

Carson... I'll say 249 yards.

This is one of those very few games where I'm pretty much 100% certain of the outcome.

I think the Colts will take a big lead early and then slow it down. I say 35-13.

Manning: 350
Palmer: 198

38-27 Colts.

Peyton Manning 4 TDs 1 INT 378 yds
Carson Palmer 1 TD 2 INT 192 yds
* Cedric Benson 119 yds 2 TD

Back and forth game. I think the Bengals will have a pretty solid running game vs the Colts, but the Bengals D won't stand a chance vs Peyton. When TDs start turning into FGs, the Colts get ahead and Carson turns the ball over.

There's no reason for the Colts not to win this game, but I'm somewhat worried about it.

If the Colts get a lead early then the game will basically be over, but if the Bengals can put a couple long drives together early then it's anybody's game.

I'll go with 31-17 Colts. Peyton goes for 302 and Carson throws for 215.

34-14 Colts.

Palmer 290 yards, mostly in garbage time

34-21 Colts

Manning with 350 yards passing

Palmer with 300, all in garbage time.

Colts take a huge lead early and the Bengals score their points later in a futile effort.

I expect Manning to abuse a Bengals defense that provides almost no pass rush.
The Bengals will try to run against the Colts but they will try to run outside instead of inside.
Palmers shoulder will be even more banged up after the beating he takes this week.

Colts 38, Bengals 20

Colts go up big early, Bengals do their usual work in garbage time

Manning - 347 yards, 3 TD, 0 sacks
Palmer - 232 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT, 3 sacks

27-24 Colts

Manning 286 yards
Palmer 287 yards

Bengals are just good enough to keep games close, bot good enough to win.

Already 10-0 Colts. Palmer has already thrown 2 awful passes

Now Benson fumbles the ball away. They are going to lose this game by 50 points

Colts 42, Bengals 13

Peyton: 328 yds
Palmer: 285, but only due to ample garbage time

Whodey!

What idiots are telling Lewis to challenge these plays?
The Operator
11-14-2010, 02:43 PM
Well, this game has had every Bungle element so far.

A Carson pick-6
A fumble giving the opposition great field position
An idiotic challenge by Marvin

This has all the makings of a waxing, and not the eloquent type.

Chad makes a great catch for a TD, but its called back because Chad didn't line up right.
WMR
11-14-2010, 04:47 PM
If Owens had sold out on that catch he would have had it easily, IMO.

Colts offense hasn't really done anything today.

Wow you don't normally see PM screw up like that.
WMR
11-14-2010, 05:07 PM
Hahahaha that TO is really something. Wouldn't even run to get lined up with the clock ticking down. Guess he knew it was over. :lol:

Owens should be cut. Immediately. You HUSTLE. EVERY time. :angry:

As for the rest of the team... :laugh:

He played that like he does with some of his routes and balls not perfectly thrown to him.

I'm not the biggest TO fan in the world and him not hustling is ridiculous, but it wouldn't even make a difference if he did. I've never seen an entire offensive line collapse like that on back-to-back plays. TO may have given up before the drive, but he wasn't the only one -- there are 5 more players just as guilty.

I'd be thrilled if in the morning the Bengals announced they the releases of: Palmer, TO, Ocho, Dhani, Williams, and... yeah that's a start/

Fans would just complain about how those guys weren't replaced by anyone good.

Palmer? The guy took a pain-killing injection to play this week. The guy cares. He battles. He made two bad throws today, but played well for the most part. His 3rd INT was all on TO.

But there comes a time when that's not enough any more. His INTs were the difference in today's game.

They won't cut him, but I wish they'd draft a guy to start grooming to be his replacement. They won't, but I wish they would.

It would be fun to see Palmer with an offensive line that can block and WRs that run the right routes. I know he'd still throw some picks, but he's not Jake Delhomme.

Why is it never Carson's fault? He is mediocre at best and everyone always makes excuses for him.

Guy manned up and played hurt today, made two bad decisions and it's all his fault? Sorry, I'm not buying that. There are literally three guys on the Bengals offensive line who shouldn't be in the NFL, let alone starting. They had to have extra help for the line all day today. Then you have receivers who constantly freelance.

I think it's very possible Carson is an average or below average QB now, but it's ignorant to blame much of this season on him.

I am not blaming everything on him, I just think he gets a pass.

It's like Palmer has 2-3 "yips" per game. He's pretty good to really good outside of 2-3 throws per game. The problem is, these errors lose games. I'm truly amazed at how bad is bad throws are. They're off the planet bad.

Get rid of the offense then? Then after that what? I think this offense is like the Chargers offense of the late 70's-early 80's....all routes must be run with precision beacuse the ball will be there IF they run the right route.....but since neither TO and especially Chad.....have a Charlie Joiner like discipline when it comes to doing that, you get this.

Most of the places I read, like here, it seems like he gets more than his share of criticism. But that's subjective I know.

It has been a litany of bad decisions over the past 15 or so games that have doomed the Bengals.

I don't care if he got two shots and manned up to play today. Football is about production not being manly. Carson Palmer handed the Colts 10 points. It was looking a lot more like 14 but the D stepped up big time today. The guy continues to give away picks and throw costly int's.

Here is the thing with the two WR's. TO is a HOF and Chad is a boarder line HOF. Both have been productive this season and far from the reasons why the Bengals are losing. There comes a time when we need to stop blaming these two guys and look more at the problem, the guy throwing the football.

Coaches have already called out the WRs a few times this season on route running. Earlier in the season CBS showed video of both guys running the wrong route in game compared to what they had done in practice. At least TO has the excuse of being new to the offense.

The thing is, as a fan you have to admit that you have no idea who is to blame for an INT. It could be the receiver running the wrong route, it could be the QB throwing the ball to the wrong place, it could be the line not giving the QB enough time to go through progressions. The Bengals have plenty of issues with all three.
