You want a quarterback like that. I'm glad he's on our team." – Eddie Royal ""I want to win a Super Bowl, first and foremost. But along the way, I want to perfect my craft and have people look at me and say 'he's the best ever.' I've still got a lot of work to do."–Champ Bailey "I think our entire team, all our staff, is excited for Sunday and just looking forward to playing a first game I feel like we're starting our journey here with our team, a new team, and see how far we can take it." –Josh McDaniels "I love it, It allows me to be a lot more comfortable, just a lot looser. I don't have to be as uptight worried about the big guy in front of me. I kind of have space and can move around and use some of the things that God gave me to help me be more successful out there on the field -- instead of just lining up and running into the 300-pounders every play." -Jarvis Moss |

I'm thinking McD's plan will be to score more points than the bungles and hang on until time expires.
It's a brilliant plan I must say... don't laugh.... it could work... |

The 3rd and 4th CB's for the Bengals haven't played much. One is a total rookie.
The starters IMO are bottom tier for NFL standards. Joseph and Hall won't be able to handle Royal and Marshall 1 on 1. So forget about that even being a possibilty. Broncos will be 3 and 4 wide all game which will force Cincy into a zone where IMO they will need 6 defenders back if broncos go 4 wide. That will get linebackers off the field and dbacks on it. Broncos IMO should be able to move the ball pretty well against this defense. I think we will be able to run the ball some as well as throw it. Broncos 27 Bengals 26 |
