Just as legit as the Ravens. The best AFC team so far is the Broncos. That hopefully changes by the end of the year, but every other AFC .team needs significant improvement. Ravens, Bengals, Chiefs, Texans, Colts, Dolphins and Patriots all seem to be in the hunt for playoff berths. So who is going to step up, we will see over the next few months. But the Bengals will be one on those teams.

Dalton has to do better, much like Flacco had to improve a couple years ago. These guys seem to think Dalton will do OK. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/23346776/nfl-expert-picks-bengals-bandwagon-filling-up-can-they-win-it-all Of course those same individuals picked the Bengals as the worst team in the league three years ago. Let's play the season, Bengals look good on paper but the game is played on the field.

These preseason polls don't mean much. Two years ago the Bengals were ranked 32. Best team is determined on the field not on paper in preseason. I'm pretty confident that the Bengals will be competitive in the AFCN.

three games in a row for Dalton. Next week Cook will come back on the OL. The DL got healthy when Sims came back so their rotation is back. The DB's are healthy, LB's are playing better. Rookie WR's looking better. Team is about as healthy as you could expect heading into December. Just have to keep winning - SD this week.

Good luck tonight. Bengals are grateful to Art too. If he hadn't fired Paul Brown there would have been no Bengals. Bengals have to stop Rice and win the turnover battle to have a chance. Green and/or Gresham have to have good games. Looking forward to see where Green lines up. Chad used to be able to play only one receiver position, which meant doubling him was pretty easy. AJ will lineup at all positions so it should be a little harder to double him. Bengals preseason running game has not looked good, so Dalton might have to beat the Ravens through the air - not the best option, but we shall see. Game starts at 7:00 instead of 8:00 and the Steelers losing already puts a smile on everyone's face.

To be fair to Simpson he was one of the best Bengals with charity work. When he was sentenced so many people showed up to vouch for his character that the judge was overwhelmed. He couldn't listen to all the people there to talk. Nice guy, stupid decision.
