Stardust, where are you? I need you to make me feel better about next weeks matchup.

No way that next week turns out like this week. As I said earlier, several playoff teams this week laid eggs, some got blasted. In the prediction thread I stated that the Bengals would have no chance of winning that game. I put no credence in what the Jets did offensively. Many want to point that the Jets still scored against most of the Bengals starters, but did anyone notice the Defensive set's the Bengals were playing? This was a game of "Show them nothing". The Jets had to pull out all stops in order to get into the playoffs, so the Defense has all week to prepare for a team that showed every trick in their bag. I was shocked to see the offensive sets that the Jets conitnued to show even when the score was obvious that the Bengals were going to do nothing. IMO, the Jet's coaching staff should be blasted for giving away the entire gameplan for next week.

It's playoff football next week, which means that this will be a completely different game than last night. Both teams will prepare differently. I'm not gurenteeing a victory for the Bengals, the injuries have me concerned, but I do feel the Bengals are headed to Indianapolis in two weeks for their second round game.
