I want to know how the Browns got the cake opening schedule of getting all three of their division home games in their first four games.
They only won two of them. Remember, the Steelers played in Cleveland the first week and won 24-7.
Steelers got owned yesterday, though. Didn't help that two of our Offensive Coordinators were on the coaching staff, one at head coach! They knew our run game way too well. Heinz and Troy, two of our best players were out too. Doesn't matter, we're still #1 in AFC North!!!
I know they lost to the Steelers, but getting all three of those games right away still seems ridiculous to me. Oh well.
Polamalu played, he recovered a fumble. I didn't watch the entire game, so maybe he didn't play a lot, but I know he was in there.
I feel you on the injuries though, the Bengals have at times this season been down to one starter on the offensive line, we've now lost the top three running backs on our depth chart, the linebacking core is riddled with injuries, our third and fourth receivers are out (Henry is suspended, of course), and our special teams are so thin from injuries and guys being forced into starting jobs that last week we had a guy playing who had been signed to the team for a whole three days! I'm glad we have a bye week next week, we need to get guys healthy.
Polamalu played the first quarter, maybe not even all of it. I must have missed why he was out with the rest of the people at the bar because we were all wondering what the hell he was doing. He just stood on the sideline for the rest of the game, sometimes with his helmet on.
Well that game went about how I expected it to. The worst part was that an already badly beat up defense suffered even more injuries, especially at linebacker. The Bengals were so thin tonight that they had to move a rookie safety into a linebacker slot because there were no more healthy ones.
I loved all the analysts talking about how they think the Steelers are going to be the Patriots only regular season loss! WOOT! If we play like we did last night, they are gonna be in for a rude awakening in Foxboro!
The Pats are the NFL's kryptonite. No one looks to be able to take them down. As usual with dominant teams though, eventually they'll be beat and most likely by a team with only 1 or 2 wins in the season. Go Jets!
I'm just flabbergasted by the dismal performance of the freaking Eagles this year. I was screamin when they took McNabb over Garcia and now it's painfully obvious what a mistake that was. The only thing I can say about McNabb this year is "low and behind the receiver." I mean, the guy's never been that great a quarter back, but his ability to avoid the rush and pick up 20 yards any time you pressured him made him a real threat and kept the defense honest. Now, he can't move and the weak front line that depended on his ability to scramble is falling apart. Reid should be drug out in the street and shot up with his kids drugs for letting Garcia go and sticking with has been/never was McNabb.

I agree I thought Mcnabb was way overrated. And Garcia should of stayed a 49er but we all know how that went and why.
