		<description><![CDATA[1) We won&#039;t get to see Dalton get mauled by the Giants (due to the Bengals&#039; OLine as the only healthy center is on the practice squad, signed this week).  The only way Dalton doesn&#039;t set the record for receiving the most sacks in a game is if Marvin runs the ball every down (which might just happen).

2) Don&#039;t think the Beer lines will be shorter. Only true suds inhalers will go to the game and Mr Brown will certainly shut down many concession stands to save salary if sections aren&#039;t fully populated.

3) The tough second half schedule and their current record dictated the &#039;just another lost season&#039; mentality. they needed to be 6-2 at this point to finish 3-5 and maybe make the playoffs at 9-7. However, with five AFC losses there is no scenario where they tie and go to the playoffs as a wild card.

4) I just hope Dalton stays healthy to finish the season. What is the NFL record for sacks in a game?

5) Bengal fans are already looking at the 2013 draft for entertainment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[timmons94 says:

Don’t be bashing bengals fans. They r great fans. This is what happens when u have a lousy owner, that said. Dalton has regressed
----------------------------------------
I&#039;ve lived in Cincy for all but three-plus seasons of their existence.  I have gone to Bengals games at Nippert Stadium, Riverfront, and PBS, even a few road games.  My father had season tickets for 19 years at Riverfront and attended the Ice Bowl.  However, I&#039;m not a Bengals fan  and never have been one.  

I can tell you this about Bengals fans, based on over 40 years of direct, local observation--they are not &quot;great fans&quot;.  Some, a very few, are devoted.  I have to question their sanity, spending so much time and energy on an organization that just...doesn&#039;t...care...about winning, unless it increases profits.  It&#039;s an organization that doesn&#039;t care about the fans or the wins and losses, only about the bottom line.  Mike Brown is the Donald Sterling of the NFL.

Most of the rest of the fans are bandwagon types  or expense accounts.  It&#039;s disgustingly easy to get second-hand tickets to Bengals games, as there are tons of them flying around.

This will tell you how &quot;great&quot; Bengals fans are
--

Whenever my father would go to a Bengal game against the Browns or Steelers, he&#039;d be angry when he got home, even if the Bagels won.  Asked why, he always said the same thing--&quot;60,000 Bengals fans, 5,000 Steelers/Browns fans, and they were LOUDER!&quot;]]></description>

They had a crazy soft schedule last year, which made everybody look better than they really are.

Still, it&#039;s not like the Chargers or Chiefs are coming to town, it&#039;s the Super Bowl champion Giants.
