The Bengals game against the Cardinals the week after facing Houston has just been flexed to Sunday Night. This means the Bengals have primetime games on either side of their match with the Texans (Thurs vs Cleveland, Sunday vs Houston, Sunday Night @ Arizona). The Bengals have laid some duds during night games, so maybe their game with the Texans becomes something of a trap game for them. Here's hoping, at least.

Oy, that drop was awful. I had "interests" in the outcome but the big one was mainly that the Colts lose. As I watched the Panther defense fritter away the 17 pt. lead, I was thinking, "Don't they know? Don't they know about Luck + 4th qtr comebacks = smiling Colt faces in the end?"
But the Panthers hung on so maybe the worm has turned.....
Welcome to the new season. The AFC South is now officially wide open.... Opportunity is a-knockin'.... will the Texans answer the door?
