DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk The Smack Shack Snap back to Reality. The Cincy Bungles

The Bungles live up to their nickname once again. All of the talking. All of the chest thumping. For what? Finishing yet another season with a loss to the Steelers.

For you I have no pity. In other news the Bungles new offseason training facility has been completed.

I wonder if Marvin will go drinking with Chris Henry to drown their sorrows?

Nice clock/timeout management, Marv. <img src="/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" />

Marv used a timeout to "ice the kicker" with 1:07 left. Then they miss a 39-yarder! <img src="/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" />
Oh the same old Bungles. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> Bungles... <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> Reverting to form.

I hope Denver loses this game now.

Bwaaaahaaaahaaa haaaa haaaaa!!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

Funny to see a bar full of Browns fans rooting against the Bengals. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Browns and Steelers can agree than the constant non stop talking from a team that has only had 1 winning season in forever is a bit tiresome. They just have to let everybody know how good they think they are. They can not shut up on their own so its up to us to shut them up.

Bungles have NO DEFENSE. You will NEVER go far in the playoffs with a high school defense. On offense they are talented chokers. Every big stage there is always a choke involved.

Hope you guys still enjoy your division title t-shirts and hats from last year. <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

Shayne Graham Dey.

ROTFL!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

Shayne Graham Dey INDEED!! <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

The Bungles needed San Fran to lose to get in the playoffs. San Fran is in field goal range in OT. Will they "Bungle it"? Or pull it out? Stay tuned. . .

They made it. This means the STEELERS kept you out of the playoffs. Have a nice offseason. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You guys all suck. I race home from work to post about the bungle misfortune...and I'm laughing my arse off at these posts. Don't think I can top them. <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

The Steelers kept Cincy out, and the Ravens kept the Steelers out.

Your point?

The Bengals would have made the playoffs if they won today....but they suck, so they will be sitting at home just like us. Can't smack that.

It means exactly what I said. We ended there year just like last year. If we can't go, neither can they.

Happy New Year all. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


Good thing the Bengals are not in charge of the ball dropping in NY. They would have found a way to Bungle it for sure.

Kind of like the referees of Super Bowl 40?

Poor Bitter Clown fan. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

The Bigger Bungles are the ones that reside in Cleveland. You Sorry Clowns managed to also lose your last game to the Texans & that was the ONE game I picked you to WIN. <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />
OK the end of the season was pretty disappointing for the Bengal fans but I feel a lot better about us rebuilding & bouncing back for next year. You the sorry & Pathetic Cleveland Clowns have a lot taller mountain to climb, I feel pretty confident that you will suck just as bad next year. Cleveland was definitely the laughing stock of the NFL, that's why I laugh when you try to throw smack up from the basement, the Bengals team is the team you wish YOU had! Enjoy the LONG & cold Cleveland winter & ruminate on your pathetic season. Over & out you Sad & Pathetic Cleveland Clowns! <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

-Med-

Thats where I beg to differ. At one point you were 8-5 and in the driver seat for a wild card spot. Then comes the loss to Indy. Indy has not been playing well. The Jags had just destroyed them. Next up is Denver with rookie Jay Cutler. If you win you are in. You comically Bungle the extra point which would have sent the game to OT. Then we have the game vs the Steelers. The Steelers let you back in the game after dominating. You Bungle yet another kick. Then lose to the Ohio connection. Ben and Santonio.

You Bungled away the playoffs.


The same Texans that beat Indy? Wow.

Here are some highlights for the people who could not see the game.

Chad getting suplexed If you notice, this is the same guy who choke slammed Shepdawg last year in the Nightmare before Xmas game in Cleveland.


Douchemendzada gets destroyed Poor Tj Taliban

The Cornholer has flashbacks of last year. The crowd in Cincy was stunned.

Santonio slamming the playoff door shut. HAHAHA <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

Saw that hit at the bar yesterday, loved it. Very Turkey Jones esque wasn't it. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Clown Hunter I'm not going to sugar coat anything. Even if the Bengals went to the playoffs,how far would they have gone? This could be the Chargers year to win it all.Quite honestly it wasn't their year to be.The Bengals beat themseleves and thats the truth.
The special teams meltdowns you can attribute to the Bengals missing the playoffs. If Shayne Graham makes the 39 yarder,then the Bengals are in.
Sometimes when you are preparing for a Super Bowl run,all the right things have to fall into place. Being healthy all year is so essential. Look at the 2005 Baltimore Ravens and the 2006 Ravens. The Ravens had 95% of their starters on the field in 2006.
The Bengals have has much talent as any team in the playoffs right now. Their question is maturity. And Iam talking composure on the football field.
I think if the Bengals would have had all their starters intact in 2006,they would be in a great position for a Super Bowl run.
Maybe the Bengals needed a 8-8 season in order to wake up...Talent alone doesn't get you to the playoffs. Marvin Lewis needs to step his game up.
What I like whats going on in Cincy right now is that the players are being accountable for their actions. No one is finger pointing.They are looking right into the mirror.
I expect this team to be a serious Super Bowl contender in 2007.

Correction..they will be held accountable at their sentencing date. You actually like your collection of convicts ? Says alot about the kind of 'man ' you are .

Nope, he is a Ravens fan. Ask him.

<img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> The funny thing about this is the fact that they were healthy enough to go out and get arrested..... <img src="/images/graemlins/naughtydevil.gif" alt="" />

Good post. I have no problem with that. The only problem I had was the non stop talking and chest thumping from a team that has accomplished nothing. Last year in the regular season we split. We won the 1st. You won the 2nd. But What do we see when you win? "Its a new era" Tj shining his shoes with the Terrible Towel.

This is the NFL. I understand you guys are excited. 1 winning season in forever. Because you won 1 meaningless division title ( where we had the same record) does not mean you can talk crap.

Im all for good competion. The Ravens spanked us twice. Hey, I give them that. Hopefully we will be ready for em next year. But they did not run their mouths before or after their wins. I think the Bunlges problem is that they have not had a decent team in so long they forget how to act. They forget that the teams they diss in the press are the same teams they have to face later on. Then they wonder why their wideouts are taking big hits. That hit that Ocho took against Cleveland was brutal. Why are you still throwing with a big lead and a bruising rb?

I want the Steelers to be the best. Besides that I want our division to be the best. I want the team who survives the AFC North to be the most feared team in the NFL.

Not Posers.

I agree with you on the AFC North being a "Dominant" division in the league. I only wish, and it could happen by the numbers, is that the WHOLE AFC North go 12-4. I guess the only other problem with that is "who goes"? The Browns are a very good team, if you take away the FO and give the coach some handle of the team, the Steelers are going to ALWAYS dominate, no matter where they are! The Steelers are a highly respected organization in the sports arena and will continue as long as ownership like the Rooneys continues. Oh, by the way, I hope Cowher comes back..I have the greatest respect for him as both a coach and mentor, the league needs more "leaders" of his magnitude. <img src="/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" />.Billick was humbled last January by the new owner (Steve Bischotti) to whom I will put up with the Rooneys, he doesn't like to lose, but he won't get involved unless he has to. Brian has become more "media friendly" and will now listen to his players instead of his ego. Marvin Lewis is another example of a very good coach and leader, however, his team is immature and needs to "grow up" so to speak if they want to contend in the NFL. He may need some assistance from a former player(s) like Jim Brown or any other that gave what they took and teach those guys how to respect the "game" and their peers if they want to be a model team. We have the "BEST" division in the NFL, in my opinion, I just wish that they would play like that.... <img src="/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" />

I don't know. The arrests, those XFL uniforms, the joke of a fanbase, having to say 'who dey' like a backwoods retard...I'll take being 4-12 with my team, thanks.

<img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> And that is EXACTLY what they sound like! <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

Clown Hunter you remember what the Bengals were like before Marvn Lewis got their.A team that lacked A)confidence B) A idenity C) Players that were passionate and cared.
Marvin Lewis took on a job that one else wanted. Trying to revive a franchise that was the punchline in the NFL.He knew to start any revival its starts in your divsion. The AFC North is one of the most physical in the NFL. You can't beat the Steelers and Ravens with choirboys. (Beating the Browns is akin to midget tossing at at bar).
For so long,the Steelers and Ravens whipped on the 'Nati.So pardon the Bengals if they got caught up in the moment and won the division.
The Bengals need to do better to keep their emotions in check.That comes with growing as a team.
This team isn't that far away. Carson is still evolving as a qb.He didn't have a good 2006 as he did as 2005. Having your o-line nicked all year and Chris Perry out doesn't help. A healthy defense wouldn't hurt either.(hopefully Thurman and Pollack come back)

I don't know Phil Dawson,the Browns fans will buy into anything that is put on the football field in Cleveland.
You'll take 4-12 as a fan...it doesn't take much to satisfy a Browns fan.

I take a certain amount of pride in that, as foolish as it is. Win or lose, those are my guys.

Sadly, I believe Pollack is done. I always thought Thurman was way overrated...bit on playaction fakes like it was no one's business, constantly...he's young and that's reversable...but not if he isn't on the field.

Wow... Your actually admitting your all bandwagoners, good for you... It's sad that you guys are like this but we've grown acccustomed to it...

The Browns could go 16-0 or 0-16 and I would still be a fan, it's obvious you guys don't follow the same standard since you expect a certain performance... Thats sad... you guys root for (only depending on their record) the Cincitucky Bengals for crying out loud...

At least Browns fans remain loyal. Why was your stadium almost empty for 15 years again??

I would love to have Pollack back,but you are right its not looking so great..
Odell is such a love/hate relationship. Boy he was Johnny on the Spot when we needed him, then he'd overrun his gap responsibilty and leave a big hole open for a 34 yard run.
5 INTS and 5 forced fumbles is hard to replace from a ILB....I think what the Bengals defense was that bravado and swagger that Odell brought.
Hopefully Marvin will forgive Odell and bring him back...
If he's not a Bengals next year,some one will pick him up.

Loyal to what Dawg Michelle,a football franchise that continues to get worse and a owner that doesn't care about the fans, only the revenue that the fans bring in.

So, you admit to being a bandwagoner, Impact? Where were you for the last 15 years while the Bengals sucked?

Michelle he's pretty much come clean on issues we all knew were the truth... Bungles fans are nothing more then bandwagoners, it's good to see them step up to the plate and admit it... Though it is extremely sad, and again doesn't speak good for their supposed fanbase...

I'm loyal to what that helmet means to people and what they endure for that love. I'm perfectly aware that it's a business, but the people who fill those parking lots on Sunday aren't. I try to avoid overwhelming sports relevance and cliches, etc...but I'm not sure I've ever been prouder to be a part of anything else.

And from what I've seen, Impact's no bandwagoner.
