    I disagree. You never force feed it to a single target, you read the defense and take what it gives you. Now on 3rd and 10 and other situations you like that, you throw a jump ball to AJ and hope he makes a play. But in the regular flow of the game, you never force it to him.

    I don't Schaub can throw "jump balls" Notice you never see them, plus explains why A.J. is not in on goal line plays

    I was going to say this. Our offense hasn't been spectacular but our defense has been pretty close to it. Special teams and offense have given up more points than the defense this season.

    Hopefully it will be a pretty good game... now that I know that I can see it!

    I'm really excited for this game.

    As a Bengals fan, this is the first game this year I've gone into without any sort of expectation. I could see this game going a hundred different ways.

    That being said I'm predicting
    Texans 28
    Bengals 24

    Unless there's a late turnover by the Texans, then
    Bengals 24
    Texans 21

    Still, should be a fun game.

    Yes, you're right on Jennings, my bad. And he got shut out. But Hines Ward is Pittsburgh's #1.

    So that's 4 receptions (all from Ward) for the opposing teams #1 receiver in the last 4 games.

    Motorola and Ochocinco combine to buy 1,200 tickets to avoid TV blackout in Cincy.

    They also "lead" the league in giving up big plays (20 yards or more) over yes even the Texans. Look at some of the other receivers and the games they have had: CLE - (rookie) Massaquoi (148 yards), GB - Driver (99 yards 1 TD), PIT - (rookie) Wallace (102 yards) and Ward (82), Ray Rice (out of the backfield had 74 yards receiving). The point is there are big plays to be had the Texans just have to go out and do it and they have other targets that can do it, not just AJ. They have to protect Schaub and the ball and they will have a shot. Remember special teams too, Cribbs returned a punt for a TD for Cleveland so maybe Jacoby can make a difference.

    Frank Okam getting the start in place of Shaun Cody.... big shot for him Hopefully his motor is high today.

    Chris White will start at right guard and will split time with Antoine Caldwell....

    I want to see what Caldwell has got.

    Good opening defensive stand but the holding really hurt them. Watch the misdirection.
