With all the drama in Cinci why are the Ravens getting points at home?
Cincinnati is in for a long year. Forget that Rudi Johnson ihas been cut, T.J. Houshmandzadeh has a hamstring tweak, Carson Palmer broke his nose and Chad Johnson has a torn labrum, a gimpy ankle and an identity crisis. Only one running back -- Kenny Watson -- finished the preseason with a rushing average higher than 3.5 yards per clip (3.7), and he's not in the running to start. Chris Perry (3.1) and Rudi Johnson (0.0; he didn't play) are ahead of him. I can't explain why Watson isn't a consideration, but I can use this information along with the Bengals' quarterbacks getting sacked 13 times in four games to tell you that Cincy's O-line is going to be just as big of a problem as Johnson's mouth and Chris Henry'soff-field behavior.
What am I missing here?
Jack can you chime in about your boys?
Thanks for the early responses!
