I think the Bengals have a great chance at going 16-0 this year. Honestly, after that schedule we had last year, I think we can do it. Carson Palmer, thats all I have to say.

No easy schedule again, at least in the first half of the season. The Bengals better get off to a quick start (like 5-2) or they'll miss the playoffs again. Of course it would've helped having Chris Henry to contribute, but he got what he deserved. It just stinks that he won't be there when his team needs him and when us fans need him.

Why don't we just forget about (pardon the expression) Chris Henry. Loser, and I hope never plays another game in a Bengal uniform. Replace him and go from there. He does not get it and people have been letting him slide his whole life.

1-3 before the bye week. 7-9 for the season. Mike gives Marv a vote of confidence, they vow to do better in '08, as long as that does not entail spending more money.

PS: Henry gets arrested again before Labor Day and never plays another down in the NFL.

If they start off 3-0 it would be amazing. New England will crush them again like last year. I predict a 7-9 season this year. Hope I'm wrong, but I like to live in the real world.

Wow, no middle ground in here. Either 16-0 or losing season. How about 10-6. That's my prediction. I realize Henry is an idiot. I realize he's embarrassed the team and the city, but to say we can just replace him is a stupid statement. Chris has to start taking personal responsibility for himself. If he does that, we should welcome him back after week 8 and hope that we've stayed in the hunt by then. There isn't anyone on the team that can fill the hole that Henry leaves. He is a real talent and makes the offense significantly more dimensional and dangerous.

For all of you who want Henry gone, who should can replace him? Chatman or Tab Perry? Neither one is as good as Henry. Hopefully, Henry stays clean and is back in time to lead the charge to the playoffs.
