Cincinnati Bengals Appreciation Thread

[chickenMan]

This thread is something I'm thrilled to start. My dad is from Cincinnati, and for years I grew up watching him miserable over his poor football team, the Bengals. Now, the underdogs are finally headed back to the AFC Championship, and they knocked off the hated Titans to do it. Thank you Cincy for doing what the Colts could not do this year, and for finally making my old man proud!

Their drum section really has the beat and their uniforms are gggrrrrrrrrrrreat!

I wish we could go make a Joe Burrow in a factory for the Colts lol.

Go Cincy, I like Burrow and always have said he is legit!

[Lancer1]

I was certainly wrong in my predictions about how Burrow would perform in his 1st postseason experience.

Are we from the same family? Lol… 

 

I’ve lived in southeastern Indiana my entire life, so it’s naturally Bengals country, especially for the older folks of the community. I was two years old the last time the Bengals were good. My dad has been a fan his entire life, so it was awesome to share this experience with him (virtually of course). 
 

I’ve said it before, I’ll always bleed blue first and foremost, but I can’t help but be excited for Cincinnati’s future. Burrow is a great kid. Lots of heart and he’s a hometown guy (grew up just an hour away from the city). If anyone can finally bring a championship to the city, he’s the one to do it.

I will pass on the Bengals appreciation thread!

I hoped for a Titans win, so that KC, if it survived the Bills, would have to play in Nashville.

Now the Bengals need a miracle, almost like the Jets over the Colts in 1970.

It could help if we could replace Mahomes with Earl Morral next Sunday.

Lol maybe. I am always a Colts fan first and foremost growing up in Indiana, but my dad grew up in Cincy and got me hooked on the Bengals as a kid too, and they were always my other favorite. So happy to see them doing well, especially for my dad.

I picked Cincy on the prediction thread because they have this guy = - I just had a feeling.

Yes. We live 45 miles from Paul Brown stadium and many of my family members have been long suffering devoted Bengals Fans. 

 

They are all so excited and it's great to see them enjoying this. 

So I will definitely root for them. 

 

I do expect KC to win, but you never know. 

 

Go Bengals!

Making the Final 4 is gigantic, Cincy is way ahead of schedule.

Bengals have a punchers chance. Go Bengals and 49ers.

[teganslaw]

One reason I want the Bengals to win is so we don't have to hear about Mahomes' family and fiancee celebrating. if the Chiefs lose, they'll probably come up with excuses, so we'll hear about them anyway.

I’m sure the Bengals would get the Lions share for the SB too.

 

Like others have said, I do doubt if Stafford gets another chance because the Bengals haven’t mortgaged the future as much as the Rams. We’ll see.

It’s almost as if the Rams were assembling a… 

 

Dream Team.

I have been watching football since 1977 and the Bengals remind me of how the 49ers started their dynasty with another Joe Cool. They have to finish the deal and polish of the Rams which I think they will

Bengals have shown that once you are in the playoffs, anything can happen. That is why the Colts, if they had played like mid-season form consistently, and got into the playoffs, they could have played with anyone, IMO. Unfortunately the consistency was lacking, starting with the most important position.
