Bengals/Jets Open Thread

AUTHOR: david | IN: Uncategorized | COMMENTS: 32 Comments |

As feared, Bengals’ Pro Bowl kicker Shayne Graham won’t go today in the Meadowlands. Also out is much-maligned DT John Thornton In his place, FA pickup Orien Harris gets his first NFL start.

Active for the first time this week is 2008 third-round pick DT Pat Sims.

Carson Palmer will sit as expected. Brother Jordan will get the call if anything happens to Ryan Fitzpatrick.

    NDUKWE!!! Fumble return for a TD. I suppose the D finally figured out that if it was going to win, it would have to score, too. Hat tip to Odom for the sack & FF.

  2. David says:

    Hello…special teams…anyone home…?

  3. David says:

    Does anyone on either team know how to play football? Sheesh…

  4. David says:

    Thanks, Ghiacuic.

  5. kingwilly says:

    Eric is bad. there has to be a better option.

    Gotta draft a center.

  6. David says:

    Ugly Q1. Jets doing all they can to hand the Bengals a W and the Bengals just won’t take it. Killer penalties on Hall and The Pushover. 

  7. David says:

    Yup, Guy-check has got to go. I apologize to our readers for disputing their vote that he was the worst guy on the o-line. 

  8. David says:

    Sideshow Bob strikes again: run-run-pass-punt. Pathetic.

  9. David says:

    10-7 Jets. Bengals D is still hanging in there. Not sure why, they’re just prolonging the agony.

  10. David says:

    Here comes the O again. Cue up the circus music.

  11. David says:

    Good man, Fitz, just give that ball right back to New York. It isn’t like you were going to do anything with it anyhow…

  12. David says:

    17-7 Jets. What a joke our offense is. 19 yards in a quarter and a half.

  13. David says:

    …and, another punt. But we are up to a whole 28 yards of offense! Woo-hoo!

  14. David says:

    Defense continues to play its heart out.

  15. David says:

    Holy Crap! A FIRST DOWN!!!

  16. David says:

    Good call going for it on 4th-and-2. It isn’t like they have anything to lose at this point. 2 minute warning.

  17. David says:

    Wow. a 66-yard TD drive. Where did that come from? 17-14 Jets.

  18. kingwilly says:

    they should never punt for the rest of the year.

    always go for it.

  19. David says:

    First half thoughts: Fitz recovered there at the end. He actually has slightly better numbers than Favre right now. Chad & TJ woke up too. Still can’t run the ball. Playcalling stinks. O-line stinks. Dumb penalties hurt us. D is keeping us in the game but the offense has to keep doing what it did on that last drive.

  20. David says:

    DAMNIT BRAT! QUIT RUNNING PERRY OVER THE LEFT SIDE IT. IS. NOT. WORKING!!!!!!

  21. David says:

    Our offensive line is offensive.

  22. David says:

    Pick by White gives the Bengals the ball on their own 3. Need to get some room to punt.

  23. David says:

    Well, they do, but a lame Larson punt and bad teams work puts the Jets right back on the doorstep.

  24. David says:

    Frostee makes a play. D continues to drag out the inevitable. 20-14 Jets.

  25. David says:

    And the offense continues to suck. And WTF Larson? a 36 yard punt?

  26. David says:

    About time for the D to finally run out of gas…

  27. David says:

    End of 3. Jets driving, exhausted Bengals’ D flagging.

  28. David says:

    Another pick, this time by Corey Lynch. Bengals are buried again tho, on their own 8.

  29. David says:

    Back to you, New York.

  30. David says:

    Defense crumbling now. They held on longer than I thought they would, though.

  31. kingwilly says:

    game. set. match. career.

    If I was Palmer, I’d get the F out of this town.

    Palmer to Minny for Chester Talyor and EJ Henderson.
