it's funny how everything you swore would never change is different now

it's articles like this that get my hopes up way too high about the bengals. now i'm all pumped about our chances to upset new england. honestly though, i think we can definately do it, i just think it's going to come down to two things: 1. Defense. we've got to stop dillion and stop the passing game. if we're not playing from far behind, it will makes things much less stressful for palmer and the offense. 2. Protect Palmer. the pats are good against the run but missing their top 2 cornerbacks. the bengals showed last week what they can do against even a top rated defense. however, new england is 3rd in the nfl in sacks. as long as we protect palmer and give him time to make the throws, we should pass all over them. this becomes even more important if #1 fails, and we're playing from behind, like last week. i'm so pumped now. WHO DEY!
