I think that is real important to know! That is the thing about preseason, I bet there were a ton of poeple in Atlanta last preseason looking for the panic button when they got SHUT OUT by our defense .... little did anyone know they were playing one of the top three defenses in the entire league, who knows how good the bengals are going to be this season on D!!! Who knows how good Carson will be, if he ends up throwing 30 TD's and 15 picks, you can bet our D is going to be good!

Patrick is a real enigma right now, that first TD throw was amazing! He threw it on a roll out in between 2 Defenders, on the $$ and in the endzone .... but those picks were head scratchers?

I love Rock, I think Nemo is still the better bet, despite that fumble. But Rock did have some impressive runs, and was picking up big chunks.

Brunell is looking good, real good, he has played almost flawlessly against 2nd, 3rd stringers, i'm so curious to see him agasint 1st teamers ...

Most important improvement from last year--against a marvin lewis defense is

average pass was 6.9 yards

and average rush was 5.1

These are important stats because ideally you want to be able to get a first down in only two down with either rushing or passing. We couldn't do that last year
