In regards to Manziel? I see a lot of promise from him, I just don't see a lot from this team that will allow him to succeed.

I could see the guy hitting wide recievers on the numbers.

Dude's got no weapons. None. Dwayne Bowe is glue factory material, Brian Hartline has been very "meh", Hawkins and Gabriel are short 5th/6th strings, Benjamin is not mean't to be the number 1 option, and Barnridge is really the only redeeming thing they have right now on that front.

Not to mention the runningbacks that he CAN utilize as weapons are being benched in the 2nd half in favor of a dude like Turbin who's a loving bum.

This team is a trainwreck. I'm just stunned at the philosophy that this organization has tried to put in place since Butch Davis has left town. It's been the same drat poo poo, the 1992 Bill Belichick playbook.

They need to get with the times. Quit drafting lineman in the early rounds of the draft, Quit trading down, and build a team like the rest of the loving NFL.

My friend from Cincy/Dayton says that it's more of a Reds town, followed by College Basketball and HS football.

He said that the majority of Bengals fans are from Kentucky and West Virginia actually.

(FWIW? I do very much like the Reds. They're my NL team)

It is definitely a Reds town but the Bengals are super popular as well. Their popularity was muted for a long time because they were an absolute embarrassment. I've always read that Cincinnati was absolutely one of the toughest road games in the NFL in the 80s but I imagine has always been people from Cincy making that claim.

Cincy is probably one of the best HS football places outside of Texas.

Andy Dalton should have gotten blown the gently caress up on the receiving TD but the DB was complete trash and went for the pick-six instead.

I've seen too many lovely seasons to get excited for the Bengals yet. I probably won't feel good about the season until we hit double digit wins.

I'm seriously expecting an 8-8 finish.

I think he could inexplicably become the one first-round “developmental” quarterback that actually gets time to learn on the bench. That's right—the most hyped quarterback since Tim Tebow will be afforded the luxury of development time courtesy of the Cleveland Browns.

I agree. When he was ol' JFF, he looked fine and it looked like his receivers knew what to do.

Sucking cock by choice is fine if that's what you're into and should not considered unilateral punishment!

He's as good as doing something that some people would not like to do, but you do like to do, and you willingly do it by choice. I believe

Wait this isn't an implication of anything, it could be anything that anyone likes to do. Not "you" the person. Sorry if that was unclear.

That play happened in the opposite corner of the opposite endzone from my 300 level seats and we saw it live. I have no earthly idea what the refs were doing on that play.
