  1. No, the owner is still lousy, thankfully he is starting to pull a Vince McMahon and is letting go of some things on the team and leaving it to his daughter and her husband. Also, for as bad a coach as ML is, he has an eye for talent.

    CINCINNATI -- There's something else on the line when the Cincinnati Bengals host the Denver Broncos on ESPN's "Monday Night football" that's barely been mentioned this week.

    The AFC's 2-seed.

    It's quite possible that if the heaviest of dominoes fall not only Monday night but also next week, the Bengals could end up having the opening round of the playoffs off.

    CINCINNATI -- A few thoughts on the Cincinnati Bengals' 37-28 victory over the Denver Broncos at Paul Brown Stadium on "Monday Night Football:"

    What it means: First and foremost, this win means the Bengals are now in the playoffs. This is the first time in franchise history they've been to the postseason four straight seasons. At worst, they would be the fifth- or sixth-seeded wild card. At best, they could be the AFC's No. 2 seed. They'll need a win next week at Pittsburgh and a Broncos loss or tie in order for that to happen. With this nationally-televised win, the Bengals began silencing the narrative that they simply don't show up in prime time. They are now 3-6 at night since Andy Dalton became their starting quarterback in 2011. After posting a 2.0 passer rating in their Thursday night loss to Cleveland last month, Dalton had an 89.6.

    Stock watch: It's safe to say cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick's stock is rising. After occupying a spot on the Bengals' bench for most of the season, he came off at the right moment against the Broncos. With 12-year veteran Terence Newman struggling in the third quarter, Bengals coaches turned to their third-year backup to make plays and to keep receiver Demaryius Thomas, among others, in check. Kirkpatrick did even better than that, coming away with two pivotal interceptions in the final three minutes. His 30-yard interception return for touchdown with 2:41 remaining extended the Bengals' score for the win.

    Gresham claiming that Lapham said that Gresham quit. Gresham had an issue with that and the two had a verbal spat in the locker room.

     

    Glad that Gresham made this about himself as the team celebrated a great win DURING Lap's interview with Lewis (who wasn't pleased at all).

     

    Great performance by his teammates, and Jermaine Gresham is more concerned about himself. Speaks volumes.


    Bengals Family Feud: TE Jermaine Gresham (deactivated after warming up) interrupts Dave Lapham's post-game interview with HC Marvin Lewis. Gresham & Lap have words on live radio! Gresham claims Lap said Gresham "quit." Lap said he never used the word "quit." Gresham is a free agent after the season. Goodbye, Jermaine.

     

  5. Bengal Morning Takes: AFC North runaway

    TAMPA, Fla. -- As they woke up Monday morning, the Cincinnati Bengals had good reason to smile.

    At long last, they have a little breathing room. That once immensely tight race with the rest of the AFC North now shows a little distance between the Bengals and the rest of the pack.

    That's because the Bengals were the only one of the four teams to win Sunday, narrowly escaping with a 14-13 road victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They probably should not have won the game, but because of a series of bizarre events, and some observant assistant coaches and players, they did.

    In the locker room after the game some players learned through their smartphones and social media that every other AFC North team had lost, allowing them to widen their division.
