What “Hard knocks” jinx?  The Cincinnati Bengals spent their summer partnered with HBO to provide a guided tour of their facilities.  It was the public’s opportunity to peer through the window at the bumbling misguided misfits of 2008, while patiently awaiting the new season.  But with that window now closed and stadiums open, these Bengals [...]

Sunday’s matchup between the 5-2 Cincinnati Bengals and the 4-3 Baltimore Ravens has the potential to be one of the best games to watch in Week 9. Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer is arguably coming off one of his best performances of his career, after throwing for 233 yards and five touchdowns against the Chicago Bears. [...]

Last May, I conducted an article discussing five factors for the Cincinnati Bengals to help reach the playoffs in 2009. As we approach Week Nine of the regular season, the Bengals are in excellent shape to make a strong run at the playoffs with a 5-2 record, all while sitting at the top of the [...]

After legally changing his name prior to the start of last season, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco was given the nickname “Ocho-Stinko” by many fans and critics around the league following his disappointing 2008 season. With the way he’s performed through the first six weeks of the 2009 season, it’s safe to say nobody [...]

Last season, it took the Cincinnati Bengals two months to record their first win of the regular season. This year, it only took them two weeks, and the main reason seems to be because of a healthy Carson Palmer.

Coming off of a loss in one of the most bizarre endings in NFL history, the Bengals traveled to Lambeau Field and upset the Green Bay Packers 31-24.

The AFC, and AFC North, where the Steelers play, were very strong last year and that is where I will start my 2009 NFL preview. I am going to go to each division, review each team, and give [...]

Thanks to the wonderful folks at TheOBR.com, I recently spent some time in Georgetown, KY watching from the sidelines as the Cincinnati Bengals opened their 2009 training camp. To say I was an outsider in Bengals country is an understatement of epic proportions. From the event staff playfully mocking my vintage Kardiac Kids era license [...]

I’ve said it countless times before, and I’ll say it many more times – the NFL is a league of parity. The essence of ‘Any Given Sunday’ is apparent every play of every game. Last year, we, as NFL fans, saw many surprises, some good, some were bad. We were surprised with the success of [...]

For those of you that have been salivating at the chance to get your hands on the new Chad Ocho Cinco jerseys, you’re gonna have to be content with a Chad Ochocinco jersey. Why? Because of a mistake made by Mr. Ochocino, of course.

There’s one catch for the receiver: It’s not exactly how he wanted it.

Instead of Ocho Cinco, he’ll be “Ochocinco” because that’s how he wrote it when he submitted his name-change form last August in Florida.
