Who to Root for? Bengals/Texans..and other Survey questions

The hurricanes took a lot out of everyone's sails.
Oh, yea...good point...that I didn't think of. I mean, the two Florida teams have still not played. Most of Florida was without power...and about half of Georgia and a good chunk of South Carolina. (Plus, sorry...those 10:30 pm West coast start times take eyeballs away from the games as well)

10:30 east coast start time. The Monday night game was 7:30 west coast start time which is silly...no one is staying up till 1:30 am to watch football on the east coast.

OK, here is this weeks survey. Give your answers or opinions:

3. A. Which NFL team impressed you the most with their play in week one?
B. Which NFL team surprised you the most...positively with their play in week one?

4. Which players gave the most surprising performance....positively and negatively in Week One?
5. Per one report....the ratings for NFL games were down by 13% from last year. Do you think this signifies anything?

Doesn't matter. Rooting does not affect the outcome and it is what pigs do anyway.
2. Which team do you honestly think is the better team: The Steelers, the Ravens or the Bengals?
Steelers
3. A. Which NFL team impressed you the most with their play in week one?
KC
B. Which NFL team surprised you the most...positively with their play in week one?
Browns
C. Which NFL team surprised you the most...negatively with their play in week one?
Cheatriots
4. Which players gave the most surprising performance....positively and negatively in Week One?
Only saw Browns vs Steelers, so positive, TJTwatt, negative, Labia Bell.
5. Per one report....the ratings for NFL games were down by 13% from last year. Do you think this signifies anything?
Maybe some people put off by the concussion issue.

Realistically, a game or so. It just ain't humanly possible to go this long without a pitcher having a bad start or someone making an error in a critical situation to cost a ballgame.

Right, that is what I meant...west coast games that start at 10:30 eastern. But yes, I think the hurricanes had a huge effect on things.

Doesn't matter. Rooting does not affect the outcome and it is what pigs do anyway.
So, is it "root", or is it "route"? As in "root, route, root for the home team". I guess "root" or Cheer" for any of these teams is going a bit far to ask. Lets just say "who would you prefer to see win".

I could only picture a fat guy in front of the TV jumping up and down maniacally while shoving copious volumes of beer and unhealthy food down his bottomless gullet, all while his wife rolls her eyes.
In that case obviously Bungholes for the win, so Browns get better draft picks via Texans.Brock Ostomywearer trade was brilliant, btw. You supposedly can't buy draft picks but essentially they did.

1. Who should Browns fans root for tonight: Bengals...division rival or Texans...whose first round pick the Browns hold?
Bengals obviously...
2. Which team do you honestly think is the better team: The Steelers, the Ravens or the Bengals?
Steelers... and it is not even close.
3. A. Which NFL team impressed you the most with their play in week one? Has to be KC handing the Pats an opening loss at home in prime time.
B. Which NFL team surprised you the most...positively with their play in week one? Detroit... I always underestimate them
C. Which NFL team surprised you the most...negatively with their play in week one? Seattle... I thought they'd fixed, or at least made significant improvement in, their OL play... but they were awful.
4. Which players gave the most surprising performance....positively and negatively in Week One?
Positive: Sam Bradford... he looked really good.
Negative: Eli Manning... I know OBJ was out and NYG's OL is suspect, but a vet of Eli's caliber should bring something noteworthy.
5. Per one report....the ratings for NFL games were down by 13% from last year. Do you think this signifies anything?
Probably more on-line viewing...
6. The Cleveland Indians....how long can they keep this up?
Keep what up?
GO TRIBE!!!

I used to work at a State farm in Massachusetts.
One day the project was to clear out all the rocks that the pigs had dug up in the pig pen. We worked all day about 4 of us and completed the job. Looked great. We came back the next day and the pigs had worked through the night rooting up more rocks.
Uhm....the State farm in Massachusetts? That would be a prison. So you are saying you were in prison?

Bengals, they are not the division rival to worry about.

Steelers

KC

I'd say Goff and Dalton, but neither of those were really surprising to me...Didn't pay enough attention to answer

I would say there's more online viewers - but I would think legal online viewers would count towards the ratings. And would also think illegal online viewers don't account for anywhere close to 13%. Hurricane Irma was definitely a part of it, also.
6. The Cleveland Indians....how long can they keep this up?
Only a Cleveland team can have the longest winning streak and have controversy around it...
The 1916 NY Giants had a 26 game unbeaten streak. Having a tie somewhere in the middle.
The 2017 Indians have a 21 game winning streak.
I believe they will remove all doubt, sweep the royals and take the first two against the Angels - to set a new indisputable record of 27 games in a row.

Ah...well....

Ah Well.....it is NOT just the Cleveland baseball team that has a controversy. There is some in the NFL as well.
Note this:
Most Consecutive Games Without a Defeat - 25 - Canton Bulldogs, 1921-23 (won 22, tied 3)
Also, note this:
21 Games
New England Patriots, 2003-04Win Date Opponent, Score 1 Oct. 5 Tennessee Titans, 38-30 2 Oct. 12 New York Giants, 17-6 3 Oct. 19 at Miami Dolphins, 19-13 (OT) 4 Oct. 26 Cleveland Browns, 9-3 5 Nov. 3 at Denver Broncos, 30-26 6 Nov. 16 Dallas Cowboys, 12-0 7 Nov. 23 at Houston Texans, 23-20 (OT) 8 Nov. 30 at Indianapolis Colts, 38-34 9 Dec. 7 Miami Dolphins, 12-0 10 Dec. 14 Jacksonville Jaguars, 27-13 11 Dec. 20 at New York Jets, 21-16 12 Dec. 27 Buffalo Bills, 31-0 13 Jan. 10 * Tennessee Titans, 17-14 14 Jan. 18 ** Indianapolis Colts, 24-14 15 Feb. 1 ** Carolina Panthers, 32-29 16 Sept. 9 Indianapolis Colts, 27-24 17 Sept. 19 at Arizona Cardinals, 23-12 18 Oct. 3 at Buffalo, 31-17 19 Oct. 10 Miami Dolphins, 24-10 20 Oct. 17 Seattle Seahawks, 30-20 21 Oct. 24 New York Jets, 13-7 Streak Ended Oct. 31 at Pittsburgh Steelers, 20-34 So, here is the deal.....Patriots had a 21 game win streak...Bulldogs had a 25 game unbeaten streak....because of ties. But note: the Patriots won 2 games during their win streak in OT. If the Pats had been playing under the same rules as the Bulldogs...then they too would have had games end in ties....and they would not have had a 21 game win streak. Fortuneatly for them they won both OT games. Bulldogs had no option of playing any OT at the time. So, in comparison...the unbeaten streak of the Bulldogs may be more impressive than the unbeaten streak of the Patriots.

This is the 2nd game of the season, so OBVIOUSLY you have to root for your division rivals to lose.
I say 'obviously'....unless you can guarantee me that the Browns will not be anywhere near making the playoffs.

I'm just glad they are both playing awful. Haha.
And...it seems they did. One good play by the Houston QB.....where the Bengals defense looked like the Keystone Kops trying to chase him.
