    I know KC is a good team, but their run D is what makes them a better matchup for tennessee than buffalo, maybe Cincy.

    Cincy is all pass all the time even though Mixon is good, I think they are the worst matchup for Tennessee.

    I think buffalo is the most like Tennessee and will be a tough matchup too.

    Agree on the first 3 and in that order.

    I am definitely with you on Cincy. They actually scare me more than any other team especially with what we saw from our defense yesterday. I also think that is who we will see in the divisional round. I don’t expect any upsets next week
    Kc over Pitt
    Buffalo over Ne
    Cincy over Raiders

    I don’t care. There is no easy road to the Super Bowl. You have to play and beat the best teams. No sense getting upset stomachs worrying about playing the hard games. Let’s make everyone else sick thinking about playing us.

    Buffalo and KC are the two I'd most like to avoid, very likely not going to happen though. Afc and the playoffs in general are just wide open this year though.

    What I hate about Cincy is they seem to have our number.

    I'd like to avoid KC, Buffalo and Cincy but I don't want to hear any excuses either, it's the playoffs so no easy road

    Cincy has won 5 of the last 7 vs Titans

    But Titans lead series 40-35-1

    What I remember about the Bengals most;

    "The timeout with 21 seconds left...classic"

    It was December 18, 1989. The Bengals were leading the Houston Oilers 45 – 0 in the fourth quarter. Instead of simply kicking the ball back to the Oilers on the kickoff, Cincinnati executed an onside kick, which allowed them to regain possession of the ball. As shocking as this may seem now, it fit right in with the Bengals’ game plan that day. The fourth quarter alone showed the Bengals throwing on first down, going for it on fourth down and kicking a field goal with 21 seconds left in the game to solidify the final score of 61-7. All this on an Oilers team that was set to win the division.

    So why did the Bengals run up the score on this particular day? Simply because Sam Wyche hated Jerry Glanville. Wyche had a lot to say after the game:

    "We don't like this team we don't like their people. When you get a chance to do it (run up the score), you do it. I wish today this was a five-quarter game. I just don't like Jerry Glanville, I don't like phonies, and I don't think Jerry is a very genuine guy. The cheap shots they tried after our quarterback was down, their big mouths. Jerry tries coming up and talking to me before the game and when the cameras start rolling he puts his arm around you and smiles behind those dark glasses. When your football team is so talented and yet so undisciplined, you got to be ready to get kicked and the score run up on you. And that's exactly what happened today ... I feel sorry for the Houston players having to put up with him. He can take that hit-the-beach stuff and take it back to high school or wherever he got it from. He's a joke."

    Good to know.

    I’ve hated the bengals since Corey Dillon ate up some Tennessee Oilers, believe it was for 295 yards.
    I felt bad since they were steaming s**t pile for so long, but old rivalries renewed if we play those turds.

    AND we have to pressure the qbs. If we arent making the qb uncomfortable, they tend to chop up our secondary. Seems Bowen thinks if we are getting beat then you bring in more coverage. I can understand that thought, but if you are giving the qb time, he is going to find open wrs. You cant expect anyone to cover a wr for extended periods.
