Grant Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 As I recall, weren't they 8-8 last season? This is the first time in a long time that they could potentially have a winning season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball'n Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 8 - 8 is considered a winning season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 Since when? 8-8 isn't a losing season, but it isn't a winning season, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time in a long time that they could potentially have a winning season. 157724[/snapback] This is going to be a very, very tough game to win. These guys put up nearly 500 yards against the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Why Cincinnati will still play harddespite being out of the playoff race Because they don't beleive they're out of the playoff race, no matter how we're looking at it. They're a wounded animal backked into a corner and probably more dangerous now than they were yesterday. Cya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball'n Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 If you go 8 - 8 your coach gets credited with a winning season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys put up nearly 500 yards against the Pats. 157733[/snapback] And did so in a very hostile Pats stadium. We get them in their house, licking their wounds after a tough defeat. They are going to be a VERY dangerous team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Lest we forget, these are relatively the same bunch that took us to OT last year. Say what you will about injuries to Moulds and Henry, etc. But they showed today against the Pats, too, that they're not going to roll over. If Palmer's knee injury is serious, Kitna has an element of surprise. Rudi Johnson, that WR with the long-arse name, Chad Johnson.... Better not take this team lightly.

Good point. This is the biggest game of the season. We're going to learn a few important things about this team next Sunday. - How Mularkey handles a game with real pressure. On the road. - How the "new and improved" Bledsoe handles real pressure. On the road. Over the past three years, this team has always come up small when we needed it most. The past few weeks, though, this team has started to show some resilience - something the Bills of old were known for. THIS IS THE PLAYOFFS.

CosmicBills Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I am just excited because the Bills haven't played such an important game in over 3 years. There is absolutely no way anyone on the Bills team is taking Cincy lightly. At 7-6 it simply isn't possible for the Bills to take anyone lightly. While I believe Cincy is a good team, and I feel they will pose a very serious challenge to the Bills, I have a feeling that the Bills are going to come up big. I'm not saying they are going to blow out Cincy, just that they will find a way to win this one. If the Bills can get up on the Bengals early, you could see heads start to drop on the Bengal sideline. At the very least, it will be an exciting buildup to this monster game!

RuntheDamnBall Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I see Takeo having a monster game, and I see it carrying through to the rest of the D. This one will mean too much to him. Hopefully the offense will show up and come correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
