ESPN Picks - Bengals vs Panthers

[TimTom]

I'm sure he picked us just because he's from Cleveland (I think).  He must grew up hating the Bengals.

 

edit: yep, from suburbs of Cleveland.

everyone needs an upset pick and we just happened to be golic's.

honestly i'm surprised anyone picked us and i don't blame anyone for not picking us. i don't see us doing so well against afc and 3-4 teams the rest of the year.

we win and the excuses will flow on ESPN or they will ignore the game altogether. 

Really solid point here, I noticed this a ton last year and the Detroit game this year.

I'm not surprised.  Like others have said, the Bengals haven't lost at home since 2012.  The Patriots were embarrassed on MNF and then destroyed the Bengals at home.  Bengals are out for revenge and the Panthers are struggling in a lot of areas.  We were lucky to win last week and I'm totally prepared for a loss.  I just hope the Panthers show some fight and it's not a blowout.

why the fug do we care about this

[Darth Biscuit]

Good.

[Ergent Seth]

thank you ESPee N

[CharlottePanther]

That looks EXACTLY like last year when we went to San Fran, all but one had the 9ers winning

[CharlottePanther]

If we can beat a legit contending San Fran team in west coast time zone I have full confidence we can win any away game minus Denver and Seattle.

[Doc Holiday]

I'm expecting us to lose this game, I volunteered to work Sunday(when asked if I wanted to work sat or sun) so that I couldn't watch the game and get pissed off about it. If we had hardy I'd feel better about it but not without him.

[PhillyB]

objectively speaking it's a fair pick

[ThinkAboutIt]

Schlereth's pick is a foregone conclusion. So everyone went with the Bengals except Golic, which itself is surprising.

[OriginalPantherDan]

I honestly don't see this game ending with a W for the Panthers.

Reading this thread you would think we were 0-5.
