Bengals @ Broncos Week 2 Preview

So we come into week 2 as winners off a win last week. Call it how you want it, rather it was lucky or what the Cincinnati Bengals are 1-0. A week that wasn't pretty, no consistency, Dalton get banged up, and the most positive thing was Cedric Benson and getting over 100 yards and carrying this team. That week is over and done with me, and now we face the Denver Broncos. This is a Broncos team that has just as many question, and insecurities as our Cincinnati Bengals, which mean this is another game that's really a toss up, a game that can go either way. So what's the keys!?! For us, we need Dalton to play the whole game, he has an injury to his throwing arm, so it will be very interesting to see how this go today. In order for Dalton to survive and play a good game, the O-line MUST play on a level we believe they can't. Believe it or not that's not the most important thing, the most important factor for the Bengals to come home 2-0 is the secondary. This secondary must not allow Kyle Orton to pick them apart. Orton is the Denver Broncos he is the only chance that team have to be successful, so they must contain him. The D-line will have to provide help by getting pressure on Orton and not giving him the time to pick their weak secondary apart. Offensively the Bengals must play their same game, but even better, Benson must get over the century mark again, and the Bengals receivers must step up to open up A.J. Green and keep the bracket coverage away from the new impact receiver Jermaine Gresham. This game will be a battle between these two Defenses. Broncos D, and Bengals D is very similar in many ways I give the Bengals the edge on that side of the ball, however I give the Broncos D the better matchup because the Bengals offense is weak, and weaker than the Broncos offense. It should be another very interesting week for WHO DEY nation. The fan in me has the Bengals winning a close game 21-17, the realist in me has the same score but the Broncos being winners. John G.
