Our Division Hopes Still Have A Pulse

If it wasn't for some bad FG attempt kicks and injuries, things could have been looking very different in the division right now.

 

Anything is possible, we can still catch them and take the Division.

 

If we beat the Seahawks, I feel the sky's the limit.

Welcome to the board btw!

 

Dalton is a freaking whiner and a crybaby. Why even respond to stuff like that?? That's the difference between a QB like Ben and a QB like Dalton they sit there and worry about those kinds of comments and Ben could absolutely care less.

 

I don't want to get too excited yet. I won't start thinking we have an actual shot to still catch Cincy unless they lose Sunday in Arizona and we beat Seattle after the bye week. If that happens its down to 2 games with that game in Cincy coming up a few weeks later. At that point the Bengals might start feeling a lot of heat. Sunday in Arizona is a big game for them I believe. If they lose that game they are going to start to feel some pressure of maybe still getting caught by the Steelers.

 

Division crown is not likely. Bengals have 7 games left. They would have to lose 4 out of those 7 games for the Steelers to have a shot... and there would be no margin of error for the Steelers. I'd be happy with the 5th seed and matchup with whoever wins the AFC South.

 

Just remember, when the temperature cools, so do the Bengals. Expect their last home game to be played to a half empty stadium. They'll be 10-6 at best, lol

 

I agree that is about the best we can probably hope for at this point is the 5 seed and playing the winner of the garbage AFC South division. I think the Steelers win that game no matter who we play. That's why it's very important to get that first wildcard spot as opposed to the 6 seed as they will have to play either Denver or Cincy as the 3 seed whichever team doesn't secure the bye week which would be a much tougher game. So while I don't think we realistically can still win the North I won't put anything past the Bungles and Marvin Lewis ability to screw things up. He has done it so many times why not one more season.

 

Lets shoot for the wild card and go from there. I like our chances.

 

I luv

 

Cards are going to win!!!

 

Oh wow!!!

 

Nice 15 yard penalty to move the Cardinals into short FG range.

 

Suddenly our Steelers really do have a Divisional heartbeat as Carson Palmer beats his nemesis !! Their is indeed life in Steelerland !!

 

Bungles be Bunglin'. LOL!

 

Thanks Bruce!

 

who dey gonna lose that game?

 

They've got a favorable schedule down the stretch but they do play the Rams who have hurt 2 AFC North qb's already. So anything can happen.

 

division is within grabs but i doubt we win it simply due to the fact Ben will have a stinker or two. The balt+cin games that we had won but gave away will hurt us. Who cares though, just need to be healthy and hot.

 

The Cards let the Bungles hang around WAY too long. Thanks Peko for thinking you were a signal caller. Dumbazz!

 

It`s nice to be alive for the division title with the Bungle loss tonight, but we have to win out IMO to have a chance for it. Only back 2 1/2 games now. I suppose the Bungles could lose 3. Let`s beat the Seahags and keep stacking wins.

If we do not win the division and get wildcard, the most important thing is to be on a roll and healthy when the regular season ends.

 

This. Though I'd take great enjoyment in rallying late just to take the crown away the Bengals again.

 

The Rams can for sure beat them...They should beat the Browns..We should beat them....They probably beat the 49rs...Then they have Denver in a night game..I think they lose that one...Then they finish with a win at the Ravens...

So I fully expect them to drop 3 games....

 

I don't give the Rams a great shot to beat the Bengals with Case Keenum at QB next Sunday in Cincy but who knows. The Rams are one of those weird teams that nobody really knows about but they always end up playing you tough and giving you a decent game. So it is possible to take the field in Seattle next Sunday having gained almost 3 games in the standings without playing one game in a 2 week span. I think the game for the Bengals next week against the Rams is huge for them. A loss in that game and the Steelers really do start to have a realistic chance to catch the Bengals for the division.

 

December will not be kind to the Bungles
