CNO Pro Football Preview...
Bengals over Broncos,
and More
By George Starks

Bengals @ Broncos
Ok, so I blew the Bengals game. Or did I?
Last week, I said the Brownies defense would chew up Andy Dalton and he
ended up with a wrist injury. That brought on Bruce Gradkowski and look
what happened, the Bengals won.
Tomorrow, the Cats play in Denver.
The Broncos lost to Oakland last week, a game I predicted, by the way,
as my upset.
With Gradkowski at the helm, I’ll take the Bengals and I look for
Cedric Benson to have a good day. Head coach Marvin Lewis is going to
grind it out. It might be a boring game but the Bengals by six.
Buccs @ Vikings
Tampa Bay will be on the road at Minnesota. Take the Vikings by a
dozen. Both teams lost in week one but this is at Minnesota.
Cowboys @ 49’ers
San Fransisco will host Dallas and the hapless Tony Romo. After his
disaster last week, Romo has been running his mouth. Check it out on
Twitter. I never could stand either one of these teams but with Romo
having hoof and mouth problems, take the 49’ers in this one by ten.
Open mouth, insert foot, Tony.
Seahawks @ Steelers
This is my upset of the week. Pittsburgh goes to 0-2 after this one.
In other games, I like the Eagles to pop the Falcons, and New England
and Matt Light, to pound San Diego.
My upset pitts the St. Louis Rams
at the New York Giants. This
is a “who really cares” game but I’ll take the Giants by nine and
remain undefeated.
Want to weigh in? Send me your thoughts to cnosports@countynewsonline.org.
I welcome the challange.
