Hell of a takeback by Scott there - wow!

Should be 10-3 Bengals now if it weren't for that stupid illegal substitution penalty

Scratch that, fucked up the extra point, lol

Great return, and yep that penalty hurt, so did the missed kick. Right there are two hings that could cost you a game. 4 lost points.

Got a bad feeling that is indeed gonna haunt them in the end. I think he woulda made the kick if they didn't have the penalty to push them back.

They stopped Benson cold that first drive, he needs to find a way through for the Bengals to win.

Yep, good overrule there.

Polamalu out for the game. Could be big.

Terrible decision not to let that punt bounce into the end zone there...

Benson just made his first good run for 9 to grab move the sticks

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 5:05 am

Man that fat fuck is hard to sack, damn good play there

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 5:11 am

I can just see Jeff Reed planning his bender on the South Side of Pittsburgh tonight after that last kick

Now this is getting ugly...

Horrendous bone-headed mistake there on the arm bar pass interference. 46 yds :shock:

Even though it's close, I feel like the Bengals aren't quite playing a clean enough game today. Too many mistakes so far... doesn't bode well.

4 sacks of Ben and no offensive points, plus tons of missed tackles and yet it's 9-6 at the half. I'll take it. Pitt gets the ball to start the 2nd half.

I'm gonna go get some munchies.

Illegal block in the back on three straight kick returns :shock:

WTF?!

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 5:53 am

This game is playing out just like I thought it would score-wise. Low scoring, physical, grinding affair

Fact Finder wrote:Bengal D is swarming now....good field position after that punt....Come on Carson and Chad85...

Good stat they showed there...the Bengals are looking for their 5th straight win on the road....they haven't done that in 317 games. The Lions haven't won 5 straight on the road in over 525 games....WOW!

What I'd really like to know is when's the last time the Lions won 5 straight, period?

This Pit-Cin game is a great game for true football lovers. Just great stuff so far

Good punt given the cirucmstances. D better make it worth it.

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:20 am

What the hell is Ward whining about there. This is gonna be a bruising fourth quarter I think!

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:37 am

Fact Finder wrote:Ok, nice little drive into the Red Zone...need TD this time.

Still no dice unless they get a miraculous measurement here

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:40 am

15-12, what a classic Steeler scoreline so far. Bengals D is looking sharper as the game goes on, but Worthlessberger is still Worthlessberger, who knows what he's got up his sleeve the rest of this quarter. Should be a tight finish.

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:47 am

In other news, upset brewing in the denver-wash game. Washington up 7 with 2:20 to go, Orton out for the game with an ankle injury. Broncos are proving to be the frauds I've been saying they are all along.

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:51 am

Fact Finder wrote:Hell yeah! FIRST DOWN CLOCK IS MOVING 4:40 and ticking FLAG!

Yes! BIG PITT PENALTY....UNSPORTSMAN LIKE CONDUCT!

They still need to put 6 on the board here. I'm telling you, you put the ball back in Big Ben's hands with anything more than a minute remaining, he will find a way to win. Pitt still has all three TOs too.

Another first down for Bernard Scott. If Cin wins this game, he is undoubtedly the MVP of this game

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:56 am

lol, looks like the Jets just got beat on a game-winning FG from the scoreline. Another last second loss for them. I called that one :lol:

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:59 am

Great kick... that missed extra point is REALLY disconcerting right now though. Ben with the ball in his hands for 2 minutes.

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:03 am

WOW! What a defensive stand.

by **Michigan Girl** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:10 am

Great Game of the "D"'s (w/just a teency bit of "O") congrats Cincy Fans!!

On a side note...
Your Sparty, Domata Peko, needs to cut that ugly sh*t off his head. He looks like
a fat little girl dancing on the sideline!!! :wink:

by **ProgRocker53** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:13 am

So.

How about them Bengals.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:20 am

WOW! Congrats to all Bengals fans. They won the defensive struggle in honor fashion. There is a new juggernaut in the AFC North Division. The Bengals ARE FOR REAL and I'm glad to eat crow after a beatdown like that. What a win for that franchise. It really wasn't that close. Steelers got manhandled in every phase, esp in the trenches and the redzone. Their special teams breakdown is a major concern. Ben really didn't have the time and the Bengals corners dictated that game all day long. Bengals are coming after the league, watch out Indy and N.E. Unless a complete MELTDOWN from Cinci, which won't happen, Pittsburgh needs to take it week to week and land a Wild Card if possible. Ben seemed panicked all day and was rattled big time. This was the first time since the 2006 season where he was really panicked. Congrats to Cinci and all fans. You deserve it!

Now onto Indy and N.E. Should be a great game!

by **Enigma869** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:29 am

Cincinnati at Pittsburgh - There is simply ZERO chance Shitsburgh is losing to the Bengals twice in one season. WILL NOT HAPPEN! I suspect this will be another hard fought game and that the Steelers pull it out by a touchdown. I see this one being lower scoring. (20-13 in favor of Steelers).

And you are off the Gong Show

Just needling our resident Football "Experts."

It's not the first prediction I've been wrong about and won't be the last. I honestly didn't expect Pittsburgh to get slapped around so much. I'm not sold on the Cincinatti offense but their defense looks VERY good, to my eyes. Congrats on the win and see you in January. As you probably already know from the tone of my postings on this board, I LOATHE Shitsburgh and all of their big-mouthed, whiny, bitch fans, so I can assure you that I'm not shedding any tears right now! That said, the Steelers aren't going away. They have the weakest road schedule in the entire NFL for the remainder of the season, so that will pretty much guarantee that they'll win their share of games!

by **Ehwmatt** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:35 am

Some interesting happenings today so far...

Miami won on a last-second FG, as did Jacksonville.

Saints looked terrible against a bad St. Louis team.

Vince Young moves to 3-0, maybe there is a future for this guy after all.

Carolina takes out Atlanta, they seem to be finding themselves a bit.

And finally, the Fraudcos (thanks JFB) continue their downward spiral. They just aren't that good.

The Steelers do have a MUCH MUCH tougher schedule from here on out compared to Cinci. We got Baltimore twice (I think they will split) Green Bay, and Miami during that stretch. No gimmie's. We won't go away but it'll be a tough week to week basis from here on out. You'll know what the Steelers are made of throughout the rest of the season and they will need to prove to everybody again if they are contenders. It's up to them. Been there done this. Division is not out of reach but the window is closing. Long season.

Class statement dude. Now I feel kinda bad about needeling you....KINDA......NOT!

j/k

dig this from the Cincy Enquirer just now. "And after 60 minutes of division football at its most rugged, the Bengals emerged with what could be the most hard-fought win in the 42-year history of the franchise. Without an injured Cedric Benson, the Bengals were able to hold off the Steelers 18-12 victory at Heinz Field on Sunday

Are you kidding me? Dish it out bro! I know I certainly would of. This is where you unleash. DAMN! haha. :wink:

I'll be shocked if you guys lose to the Ravens either time. I just don't believe they are very good at all. But, things can change. Teams like Green Bay and Miami are always dangerous, as they are likely to be fighting and clawing for a playoff spot every game out from this point...

If you read what I wrote...I said ROAD schedule. This isn't an opinion...It's a fact, based on their opponents record. Baltimore is nothing special and is barely a .500 team. The Steelers have Baltimore, Kansas City, Cleveland, and Miami (who struggled to beat a pathetic Tampa team on a last second field goal today) on the road, and Oakland at home. That's not a juggernaut schedule no matter how you slice or dice it. Honestly, I fully expect the Steelers not to lose more than 2 of their remaining games, because there are a lot of layups on that schedule!
