I understand wanting to keep all your key guys healthy but I would be more comfortable if they had come out and played like a real team for more than that one initial drive. I don't see a squad that is mature or experienced enough with success to be able to start 0-0. Think about it. Do you really believe these guys can put their recent failures out of their minds and approach the Bengals as if it were really 0-0? I don't. As usual I would love to be wrong.
If the Texans come out and smoke Cincy next week I will welcome all manner of ridicule and abuse.
