It figures that Cincinnati’s first loss would come against a team that has tormented them in the big games.

Haha! Good one J.J. Nothing particularly insulting there, just a pop culture reference to A Christmas Story, a holiday movie classic. However, this loss showed us that this Bengals’ team still has the same tendencies as the ones from the past years which is very scary for Bengals fans. Afterward we’ll look ahead to Week 11 to see what’s in store for both teams. You watch the film, we handle our guys. “We had a lot of opportunities”. “That’s the way you have to play against an 8-0 team. We’ve got to correct”.
It was impossible to sugarcoat this loss. The Texans may have a hard time running against the Bengals.
Dalton appeared on the cover of ESPN The Magazine and one media session last week at Paul Brown Stadium focused nearly entirely on the red-headed quarterback’s hairstyle. He did not lose consciousness and got to his feet quickly after the hit that drove his head into the ground. “When you go home it’s special, and we got home three times in the second half”.
It’s fair to wonder how much of Monday’s game film is worth watching.
Punter Shane Lechler was a weapon for the Texans, helping them flip field position on several occasions.
The Houston Texans star defensive end has damaged the integrity of the NFL.
The Texans had just released quarterback Ryan Mallett and needed a backup for Brian Hoyer. It took me out for two plays.
What I’m more anxious about is the result of games in which they play well. The Bengals dared Watt to make a play-and he was only able to make one. Yates entered the game in the third quarter, trailing the Bengals 6-3. Green fumbled in a key situation, which isn’t a new scenario.
Brown said he doubted Palmer was serious about retiring and that the whole thing left him with an “odd feeling” about a player the Bengals picked first overall in 2003, but that he still likes Palmer and feels sorry about the way things came to an end. We’ve got to get back to what we were doing.
Bengals coach Marvin Lewis deflected the notion that his players were taking the hype of an undefeated start to heart.
A trip to Arizona to face the Cardinals on Sunday represents a huge opportunity for Cincinnati to right its ship. Teammate Domata Peko was similarly descriptive about what happened. They’ve won four f– games.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (18) fumbles the ball as Houston Texans strong safety Quintin Demps (27) leaps for the recover in the second half of an NFL football game in Cincinnati, Monday, November 16, 2015.
For defensive end J.J.
Dalton was 22-of-38 for 197 yards and one interception. However, the Texans still have a long way to go.

On the night, the Bengals had nine penalties for 70 yards – a lot them drive killers.
