Preview: Carolina @ Cincinnati

@

We have a tough matchup against a very good team tomorrow. They are not playing the way they played last year, but all their weapons are there and in tact. We have to prepare accordingly. We have to prepare as if we are playing the Bengals with an explosive offense and a defense that creates turnovers. And this season, their frount four is actually making some noise, so our offensive line has to maintain their level of play from our past 3 games.

I think we got this game if we run the ball well, and if we can get to Carson Palmer. Their 0-line has looked shaky so far, and we have to take advantage. If we get into a passing contest like last week in Baltimore, they have the weapons to go toe to toe with us, so I don't think that's a good idea. Here are my keys to beating the Bengals tomorrow.
  • Pound the ball w. Deshaun, Goings and Shelton and establish a runnung game
  • D-line has to wreck havoc

We can do those two, they won't even be in the game. If not, it's going to be a long day for us. That's my take, and bless.
