Re: Time to take the Bengals seriously
Here we go with this again. First, it was the wise one near the beginning of the season (GOTA). Now, Leach is putting his own thread into the mix.
I will say this. They have shown a resiliency uncommon in Cincinnati, in years passed. However, Dalton and Co. have yet to beat the Ravens once, this is just the type of game that they'll lose (A meaningless game, following an emotionally charged victory in Pittsburgh) and they'll likely have to play New England in the first round.
Does anybody honestly expect them to go into New England and take down the Patriots? Brady is going to work that cover-2 scheme. It will be a matchup nightmare. A.J. Green will make it entertaining, but that will be it."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

Re: Time to take the Bengals seriously
Back to back playoff appearances show the Bengals are a good team. They're young and talented, and Marvin Lewis is a good head coach. Working for the Ravens- and everyone else in the division- is Mike Brown. He's always had a crappy organization, and he hasn't shown yet that he's willing or able to fix that.
So, until they show me otherwise, I'm going to consider the Steelers the bigger threat in the division. Yes, this was a down year. They've had them before. But that's a good organization that knows how to put a quality football team on the field. They've earned the expectation that they'll put a contender on the field next year, just like the Ravens have.
