Okay, I'll take the Cincinnati Bengals and promise at least one unfunny meltdown and no Cincy killed Harambe jokes.

Except that one.

And probably one more.

If you were playing in person instead of via the internet, and the other guy ever feels the urge to legit punch you in the face, you're probably cheesing.

Advancing that fast past practice squad day cut a couple backend players I wanted to keep but that's cool I guess.

When can we play our week 1 game if it's a CPU game?

Just had my first meltdown against the cpu. Got to the 4th quarter, and I quit getting the passing icons. Any shotgun pass was a direct snap to Dalton followed by a dive or fumble. Two drives in a row.

Restarted. Even before that, game had decided I was going to fumble 6 times. Still could have won until I could no longer pass.

Edit: second game was perfectly normal. Hope they fix that bug, or at least can figure out what causes it.

Waah, since you haven't logged on yet I can't send you a trade offer, so gotta do it here - how high of a draft pick you want for your 3rd QB, Cardale Jones? Initial offer is a 3rd in the 2017 draft, if you approve it and the cpu will take it.

When we advance...

IT'S STEELERS WEEK!

When are we gonna play this hate-filled game? If you aren't trucksticking or going for a ripped ACL on every play, you aren't trying. Gonna make sure Atkins or Burfict hits Big Ben Worthlessburger after every play, even on handoffs.

Interview with Andy Dalton earlier today:

"Look, I don't know who this Brown Thunder person is, but I'm pretty sure all the Steelers' secondary will have a little bit of brown thunder in their pants after they hear the roar of The Jungle. I mean, our fans are ready for this home opener. I saw a guy burning an effigy of Bell in the parking lot earlier. At least, I think it was an effigy."

13 hours until the Steelers and the Bengals face off tonight.

Dolphins and Bengals are playing Friday at 5:30 eastern (aka "correct time").

Marvin Lewis was unavailable for comment, as he had far too much tape to go through after last night's contests.

When asked for comment, Andy Dalton had this to say:

"I really don't know why Coach Lewis is always in his office giggling and muttering about tape. All I know is this team has the heart of a wild animal, and we're gonna drag the Miami Dolphins around the enclosure until someone stops us."
