That isn't an upset.

Bengals are going to win, it's just a matter of how badly they embarass Culpepper and the rest of the Vikings' organization.

The Bengals were favored by 3. That's not an upset.

Weren't they already up 14-0 by the time you posted? They scored on the 2nd play of the game.

The Bengals are legit. They always have awful starts, but finish strongly. They will make the playoffs this year finally. They can score as much as anybody and their defense looks underrated.

As long as they don't do the opposite this year! I think the Bengals have a good shot at the North, If they can beat Pittsburgh.

I don;t think the Bengals are ready for Pittsburgh. Just slow down a*little bit-lol They have beat two bad teams-Minnesota and Cleveland

Carson Palmer just might be a legit QB!

Too early to call him that. He even said that himself after the game

Here's the thing: Normally at the beginning of a season, Cincinnati can't even beat Cincinnati, let alone a team like Cleveland or Minnesota. That fact alone bodes well for later on.

Until they beat a team with a good offense then I can read too much into their winning record. As of now, their winning record means Didley POO-lol BTW, the Bengals play the Bears next week so that's not a test either so they proabably will be 3-0

Ultimately though, a win is still a win is still a win.

But the point I was trying to make is simply that most years, the Bengals are horrendously bad out of the starting gate - so bad that if they played a game against themselves, they would lose. To even beat teams as bad as Minnesota and Cleveland is an improvement.

Now hold on, Cincinnati used to beat Cleveland at least once a year, even the years they only won 4 game. It was embarassing here.
