Cincinnati Bengals: Is 16-0 Possible?

“Good to be back to work”, said O’Brien. “I’m happy for him”. After being trounced by the Kansas City Chiefs past year, Belichick, the New England Patriots coach, famously said his team was moving on to Cincinnati following the embarrassing loss. He can play tight end, he can play strong safety, he can play end, he can play nose, he can play the three technique.

To give credit where credit is due, the Bengals have done what they’re supposed to do against inferior competition. “We put one guy on him”, Alexander says. “The most important thing is that we’re winning games”. Dalton’s pass to A.J. Green and Andy Dalton with his pluck-the-ball-at-the-line-out-of-thin-air 29-yard interception return back in 2011 and logged a sack in each of his two Wild Card Games against the Bengals, he has yet to chase down Dalton in the regular season for a sack. In the receiving end, Marvin Jones had 78 yards in five receptions while AJ Green added 53 yards in four catches.

“I don’t study quarterbacks like that, I just go get ’em”, Watt said, per the Houston Chronicle.

Right now, there’s not much the Bengals aren’t doing right.

The Houston Texans look for their second road win to remain in the AFC South hunt.

“It’s good because the guys get a few time again”. “I thought he looked pretty good”.

As far as where he ranks in the hierarchy of National Football League tight ends, Eifert said he’ll let the media determine that. “It was tough. I’m feeling a lot better”.

“They’re 8 – 0 for a reason”, said O’Brien. A team spokesman determined that Strickler was examined, but didn’t require treatment.

“Yeah, he’s a unique player”, Texans head coach Bill O’Brien said of Eifert. “When you’re 8-0, everybody on your team is playing pretty good football”. That seems to have contributed to the Bengals’ success, providing a sense that this is a last chance for a few of them to win a playoff game in Cincinnati. “[We’re] taking it one game at a time and are moving on to the Bengals”. “It’s not just us”. On the ground, Giovani Bernard rushed for 72 yards in 13 attempts while Jeremy Hill added 52 yards in 15 attempts. Cincinnati had eight first downs on the ground, 13 through the air.

All of Eifert’s touchdowns have come in the red zone as offensive coordinator Hue Jackson has lined him up everywhere from a traditional tight end to flexing him out in the slot or deploying him at wide receiver. We’ve studied ourselves and hopefully have made a few changes. Winston is a nine-year veteran who has appeared in all seven games this season. He also serves as the NFL Players’ Association president.

-DE Carlos Dunlap, the team leader in sacks, was limited in practice this week but was active for Thursday night’s game and sacked Browns QB Johnny Manziel twice. Maualuga ranked second on the team with 39 tackles and 19 solo after last week. Linebacker Vincent Rey could be key to improvement in this area. He’s on top of his game and primed for a better performance in the playoffs possibly this year after past failures. “He was outstanding”, said receiver Mohamed Sanu.

Meanwhile, the Bengals are still looking sharp as they annihilated the Cleveland Browns, 31-10, at the home stadium on November 5th for a midweek matchup, via SB Nation. Andy Dalton completed 21 of 27 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Bengals.
