26CornerBlitz Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Dalton has Bengals playing at championship level The Bengals go as their quarterback goes -- and Michael Silver explains how they took a big step toward legitimizing themselves as a bona-fide championship contender on Sunday. CINCINNATI -- Michael Bennett flashed into the Bengals' backfield, just as Andy Dalton was flipping the ball to Rex Burkhead on a carefully crafted jet-sweep, and suddenly it felt to all the football-watching world like the high-flying home team with the striped helmets had come crashing down to earth. As Bennett dislodged the football, and Seattle Seahawks teammate Bobby Wagner scooped it up and ran 23 yards for what appeared to be a dagger of a touchdown, 65,004 fans at Paul Brown Stadium watched helplessly, millions of television viewers nodded knowingly -- and one normally fiery offensive coordinator went into a perceptible funk.

thebandit27 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Well, this wasn't my take on the Bengals. Interesting note from one of our own: Dean Kindig @TCBILLS_Astro #Bills next week is a pick-'em. Bengals beat Raiders (2-3), Chargers (2-2), Ravens (1-4), Chiefs (1-4), and Seahawks (2-3). Combined, 8-16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Science for the win The Cincinnati Bengals' improbable come-from-behind victory was helped, in part, by the Earth's rotation after kicker Mike Nugent hit the upright on his game-winning kick, says Neil deGrasse Tyson.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Only QB with a faster release time than Dalton: Tom Brady #Bengals http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/13867766/andy-dalton-playing-faster-ever-leading-undefeated-cincinnati-bengals-nfl CINCINNATI -- Mention the word "release" this offseason in relationship to Andy Dalton and many Cincinnati Bengals fans would have this response: "That might be a good idea." It's not that they dislike their QB, but four playoff losses in four years have had Bengals fans wondering whether the franchise had hitched its future to the right hired gun. The Bengals invested a second-round pick on Dalton, and now a big contract, but four straight seasons with a wild-card loss, four straight identical outcomes is, almost by definition, the perfect way to describe good but not great. And Dalton's ceiling is a constant question, not just locally, but at the national level. But at least for now, the legend of the Red Rifle is growing, and it's not just because of the wins. Dalton is different, improved because of his release of the football. According to ESPN Stats & Information, only Tom Brady releases the ball quicker than Dalton. Brady's average time before he delivers a pass is 2.01 seconds. Dalton is next at 2.07 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to who's beat good teams, I would say that Seattle counts as a quality win for them, and--since that's the case--Indy counts as a quality win for us.

It doesn’t matter what others have done. This is what we have now, and we have to stay the course and not worry about anything else. We have a very important football game this week In Buffalo. We have to have great preparation and focus for it starting this afternoon.” Rex Ryan’s defense is different than Seattle’s. Is there usually no carryover between preparation for defenses week-to-week? “It happens at times. Some carry over. I haven’t gotten versed in the Bills yet, but we have our work cut out for us. They’re a good team that plays physical football. They’ve played well in most of their football games this year.

The Voice of Truth Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 If Sammy Watkins returns and then I see him get up after a play in this game and act hurt, I am not going to be happy. The guy might be a little bit of a wuss from what I have seen so far. It's either that or his body is as frail as an old woman with osteoperosis. He was nursing injuries and limping off the field every other game last year. Now this year, every week it's been one thing or another. The most important ability is availability and Sammy has been far from ideal in that category. From what I have seen in his year and a quarter in the league, I'm not sure his body can hold up. Once he returns from this injury, I am going to be keeping a close eye on him. If he gets injured again in a short period of time, then I would say his career is seriously in jeopardy. I hope he comes back and is a tough guy and proves to be a durable player. However, from what I've seen thus far, I would be quite surprised if that happened.
