Its amazing how quickly I have gone from being a Bengals fan at the beginning of the game to hoping they get their asses handed to them next week.

Here's to a repeat next week

Why? It's a strategic decision. They've earned the right to be able to lie down due to their performance in their 15 previous games. Since they have nothing tangible to gain, there's no reason to come out full steam ahead. It's no different than the Saints chilling today. If you have a problem with the Bengals you surely have a problem with the Saints...or you're a bitter Texans fan pissed your team didn't take care of business this year.

And what's the point of coming out with an effective gameplan that the Jets can prepare for the Playoffs? The Eagles now know what they need to prep for the rematch with the Cowboys. The Bengals made sure that luxury wasn't extended to the Jets.

That's not the aspect I was focusing on. I was just implying that if the Bengals gave them everything they had then the Jets would be able to prepare better. And I just kinda randomly threw the Eagles/Boys in there. Didn't really mean to compare situations, just kinda randomly stated that the Eagles would benefit from some film in the same way that the Jets could but the Bengals made impossible. Random in retrospect, I apologize.

The Giants playing the full-steam-ahead Pats in Week 17 IMO had a LOT to do with the outcome of the Super Bowl. Makes me wonder if a Pats team not playing for perfection would have won that SB.

I like the Bengals because I hate Mark Sanchez. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

The Texans have sold out every game in team history. Astros fans are usually middle of the pack to top ten in attendance. The Rockets are usualy middle of the pack.

Good football fans. Mediocre all-around. Not as bad as Atlanta or Miami though.

The Playoffs.

I can tell you're a bonafide Texans fan. You really don't know that there are games after the regular season.

That actually shocked me when I heard it on the radio the other day.

I bet the Astros attendance is abysmal this year. They're going to be terrible.

I think he means they would not be playing the Jets if the Bengals came into NY giving a crap.

I went to the Niners/Texans game this year when your season was still relevant and there was much promise for your team.

Your tailgating atmosphere sucks, there was a ridiculous number of empty seats at game time, Niner fans were everywhere, and most importantly you made no noise.

You aren't on the same planet as Saints fans.

Naturally. Only Cubs fans pay to watch a shitty product.
