Ochocinco needs surgery

Cincinnati Bengals wideout Chad Ochocinco needs ankle surgery but isn’t ready to call it a season just yet.

Ochocinco, who has been unhappy with his production all year, wasn’t pleased about getting pulled from last week’s game.

The Bengals wanted to take a look at some of their younger wideouts in a meaningless game, but Ochocinco wanted to be on the field.

Head coach Marvin Lewis is clearly losing patience with his wideout, saying he is being his mopey self. (Read More…)

Bengals rally falls short against Colts, 23-17

The Cincinnati Bengals fell behind, rallied back and then fell short in a 23-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

The Bengals fell behind 17-0 in the second quarter and it looked as though the game might get out of hand.

Quarterback Carson Palmer then caught fire and the defense started to settle down, allowing them to creep back into the game.

Wide receiver Chad Ocho Cinco finally broke out with seven catches for 86 yards and a touchdown. (Read More…)

Bengals can’t rally past Steelers, 27-21

The Cincinnati Bengals got off to a disastrous start and could never recover in a 27-21 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Bengals fumbled the opening kickoff, leading to a quick Pittsburgh touchdown courtesy of Rashard Mendenhall.

Just moments later, the Bengals had a punt blocked, and that lead to a Pittsburgh field goal and a 10-0 deficit.

The Bengals fell behind 27-7 in the fourth quarter but rallied for two quick touchdowns, giving them a chance to come back. (Read More…)

Bengals fall to Dolphins, 22-14

The host Cincinnati Bengals turned in a very sloppy performance in a 22-14 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

The game could have been worse if the Dolphins could score in the red zone or their cornerbacks could catch the ball.

Quarterback Carson Palmer’s numbers weren’t bad at the end of the game, but he is really struggling.

Way too many of Palmer’s throws are errant passes that are incomplete or land in the hands of defenders. (Read More…)

Bengals rally comes up short against Falcons, 39-32

A furious rally from the Cincinnati Bengals came up  just short in a 39-32 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

The Bengals scored 22 unanswered third quarter points to actually take a one-point lead after once trailing by three touchdowns.

The lead did not last for long, though, as the Cincinnati defense was overwhelmed by Atlanta’s passing and running attack.

Quarterback Carson Palmer overcame a poor first half to throw for 412 yards and three touchdowns, which might quiet talk that his play has significantly slipped. (Read More…)

Bengals fall to Bucs, 24-21

The host Cincinnati Bengals fell apart late in a devastating 24-21 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Quarterback Carson Palmer continued to self-destruct, tossing three costly interceptions that lost his team the game.

One interception was returned for a touchdown while the final pick allowed Tampa Bay to kick the game-winning field goal.

Palmer is still putting up decent numbers (he threw for over 200 yards and two touchdowns), but it’s the accuracy that is hurting the Bengals. (Read More…)

Bengals hold off Ravens, 15-10

The Cincinnati Bengals bounced back from last week’s embarassing loss with a 15-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens.

The Bengals’ offense struggled to move the ball throughout the game but took advantage of four turnovers.

Cincinnati managed five field goals, and each one came after being given outstanding field position by the defense or special teams.

The Bengals can also thank some questionable officiating for two key calls that kept drives alive and each led to a field goal. (Read More…)

Benson wants new deal

Cincinnati Bengals running back Cedric Benson is starting to express a desire for a new contract.

Benson believes he has more than outplayed the terms of his current contract and thinks he deserves more money and security.

The Bengals have been receptive to giving Benson a long-term deal, but contract talks are not imminent. (Read More…)

Pacman wants to show he is changed man

Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Pacman Jones wants to show that he really is a changed man.

Jones said that his year away from football was miserable and could not put a positive spin on his time away from the game.

He was desperate for a team to take a chance on him, and he wasn’t sure that he would ever play again.

He said he no longer hangs around the people that used to put him in bad situations and cause trouble.

Jones admitted that you learn and grow as you get older, and he wants to prove that he has changed into a better person.

Bengals show interest in Russell

It should come as no surprise that the Cincinnati Bengals are showing interest in quarterback JaMarcus Russell.

Or should it? It seems almost impossible how many players with questionable character the Bengals are willing to bring in.

You would think the team would need a solid group of veterans to show the way for these troubled youngsters.

The only problem is that the team is becoming so crowded with the troubled players that they will outnumber the quality veterans.

The team is obviously looking for a successor to Carson Palmer, but I’m not sure they are going in the right direction.
