6 or 7 games in. let's check in.

1. bengals are 7-0. pretty hot on offense and better than average on defense. long way to go and they've stumbled at the end in the past, but they are looking good.

2. oh, the bills. well, they've had injuries - including their starting qb who was looking good. they get a bye this week then 3 divisional matchups against a resurgent miami, one of the best defenses in the league in the jets and the cream of the afc, new england patriots. we'll know in 4 weeks if the bills are for real.

3. chargers currently 4th in the division at 2-5. based on their remaining games, i'd say 4th place with a 5-11 record is likely.

4. raiders are 3-3 and heating up. if their defense can find a way to stop handing scores to tight-ends, they'll be in better shape. carr, cooper and murray are the foundation of an impressive offense. 7-9 or 8-8 i think.

49ers are 2-5 and looking pretty shaky on both sides of the ball. 5-11 finish.

I am just in a depression after the Eagles game Sunday night. Once Tony Romo comes back the Cowboys are going to walk away with the NFC East. There will have to be some tough decisions in Philly this offseason.
 
I watched the game from my buddy's house in Colorado. Incidentally, I played him in fantasy football that week. (And won.) They played an undefeated team and lost. Not surprising, since our team isn't the best this year (for sure). Personally, the Chip Kelly experiment needs to end, and we need to play some NFL for once. Jason Peters getting hurt again didn't make me feel any better, either. Thank goodness for the bye next week.
 
I don't think the experiment is going to end unless he has a truly abysmal season or two, which is why I want them to lose. Sam. Fucking. Bradford. Fucking hell, at least he's getting paid handsomely.

I'll be the 1st to admit the Bengals look damn great right now. they've always had a superb defense, a handful of offensive playmakers, and if Dalton isn't giving up games then they should win more often than not

as a Steelers fan I'm pretty much resigned to winning a sure Wild Card spot right now. and let's just say that I would love to play the Bengals in the playoffs this year
 
some good matchups this weekend. bengals vs. steelers; seahawks vs. cowboys; packers vs. broncos

are your steelers going to beat the undefeated bengals, jim? at least it's in pittsburgh...

in the regular season the Bengals always have a chance. in the playoffs? smart money would rest on Big Ben

I wonder if he is going to have to work out some kinks or will be right back to form? at least he has Brown and Bell to take loads off of his shoulders

anyways - I'm looking forward to it!
 
Any team poses a threat to the bengals in the post season right now, I'll be honest. We are and always have been shaky in the playoffs. The steelers certainly could give us a run come postseason. Which I assume would be our matchup given Big Ben can pull them out of the rut they've found theirselves in. Landry Jones looks god awful.. I'm actually a pretty big fan of Big Ben he went to college 15 mins from my house, so when the bengals are stinkin as usual they're always my #2.
 
Sports center trolling Dan Cambell XD
Haha I love it. Can their turnaround really be attributed to him completely? I mean come on all he's really done is work the play action pass, which will last maybe one or two more games.
 
nice to see an honest Bengals fan. you're a division rival to me, but I do appreciate smooth defensive play, in Roger Goodell's NFL even more than ever, so I have been keeping tabs of the Bengals

the thing you have in your favor is that again, we're divisional opponents. it's always hard to guess what's going to happen then - unless you're lucky and are in the AFC South or AFC East

shaky ground, sure. but Big Ben getting his ankle rolled on is a good excuse as any. and yes Landry Jones fucking sucks; I was truly surprised to see his two TD performance against the Cards - though that was more Maravis Bryant than anything else

yeah I'm from Columbus, which makes my Big Ben fandom even more supreme. just wish he went to Ohio State, though that means the Steelers wouldn't have stolen him, I suppose?
 
pats brought the dolphins back to earth. pats defense hold the dolphins to 15 yards rushing. pats offense rolls - good night for brady, lewis and edelman.

I had to skip the game because for the second week in a row it would be beneficial to the Bills to see the Pats win, and I can't bring myself to root for them.
 
Good games going on today.

As a Denver fan, you are always a little nervous about Denver having one of those games that just goes to shit entirely. Confident about our D, but the offense has been shaky at best. O line needs some serious work and gotta get our run game going.

Either way, we find out if Denver is a competitor this year or not. At least we're at home.

Sick, your boys are going down! =D
