I can't predict but I surely expect to be respectable on offense. Really Xavier Legette, this is an early test for him. 

I have faith in Dalton, I got better with age myself and he sure looks like he gets it. Hoping he stays upright. 

So happy to have an NLF capable pocket style QB. 

Hope the no name defense can hang.

Bengals defense is bad enough to keep the dream alive for another week. Red rocket revenge tour matches on 

This. If we can avoid turnovers we can compete because that defense suuuuuuucks. Burrow and company will score though. The way they've done that guy is bordering on how we did Cam. He doesn't take the pounding from being the leading rusher but my God they have one of the worst pass protecting OLs in the league year in and year out.

The way to beat this Bengals team is  physically: power running and ball control. You're not going to out-air them. There was a game last year where the ravens tried and burrow  readily out-dueled jackson. They have too many weapons. I believe Higgins returns this week.

They're also down Trent Brown so Mims will see his first start. This game will tell us whether or not our O-line is legit.

First game I've been excited to attend in a couple of years at least! I hope the fans really show out today. I know I will. I miss exciting football more than anything. Hopefully the team can actually feed off of our energy for a change!

This is always fun, but I've often wondered if there's actual scientific evidence of this...reminds me of the discussion of "the Hot Hand Fallacy" in The Big Short (great movie, btw).

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
