Oh my lawd. You made Jamarcus Russell look like a god.

Yep...Absolutely terrible. I need some DBs, bad. As you can see, I am anxious to get this season over with to get on with the off-season.

Tough stretch of games there for you DGZ. Bernard Scott has not been putting up as big of numbers as of late. Granted, he left the Oakland game due to injury, but, he looks to have plateaued a bit.

Brandon London was definitely a find for you. He's been really impressive since coming to Cincinnati from Miami.

Yeab Bernard looks to have topped-out. Maybe he's hitting the Madden version of the rookie wall. He's at 931 all-purpose yards plus 7 tds this year though so you can't be too upset with that.

Brandon London has been a pleasant surprise. He catches everything in sight. In just 5 games, he has 32 receptions for 469 yards and 5 tds. He's definitely going to get paid this off-season when his contract comes up.

Chad's not going anywhere. He is one of very few playmakers I have. He'll be a Bengal for life.

Game 11, Year 1: Cleveland Browns (4-6) at Cincinnati Bengals (0-10)

Note: The following is a brief summary of the Bengals' November 29th game versus Cleveland. Normal full-scale reporting will be reinstituted at the conclusion of the 2009 season.

26 -- 5-6
14 -- 0-11


Summary: The Cincinnati Bengals trailed the Cleveland Browns 20-0 at halftime and made a comeback attempt but in the end fell short 26-14 at home. A 14-point third quarter by the Bengals made the score 20-14 headed into the final quarter. However the Bengals' offense was not able to score again and the Browns' Jamal Lewis scored on a 1-yard touchdown run with 6:37 remaining to put the game away.

Cincinnati QB Carson Palmer threw three interceptions and also had a fumble which resulted in a 19-yard return for a touchdown by Browns OLB Blake Costanzo with just over a minute left to go in the first half and gave the Bengals a 20-0 deficit that they would not be able to overcome.

The wide receiver duo of Chad Ochocinco and Brandon London continued to pay dividends for Cincinnati, but the team's inability to find balance with the running game remains an issue. RB Bernard Scott bout with the "rookie wall" continued, rushing for just 35 yards on 13 carries.

On a brighter note, the Bengals' defense had their best performance to date, holding the Browns to just 20 points...A total that would have been less if not for the offense's four turnovers.

Cincinnati (0-11) is just 5 losses away from a shameful 0-16 mark. Ironically, the team will face Detroit (5-6) next week at home. The surprising Lions are just one game out of first place in the NFC North, trailing 6-5 Minnesota, just one season after they became the first team ever to go 0-16.

Ouch man, 0-11.

Lions next you make be able to get the W and not go 0-16 like them.

Good luck

Thanks man...This has definitely been my toughest challenge ever in my video game football. Everything that could go wrong this year has gone wrong.

I thought I would have at least "lucked" into a win by now.

[RyanLeaf16]

Chad Ochocinco and Brandon London are going to be a dynamic duo for some time. That is, of course, if you continue to use London as the #2 or #3. I don't know if you have plans to add some receivers in the off-season.

I hate it when you get turnovers in your own territory. It usually turns out as an automatic 6 points for the opposition. Good luck against Detroit! I'm really looking forward to what you have planned for the off-season. If there is one thing that is consistent in all of your 'chises it is improvement from year-to-year by your squads.

[Deegeezy]

You aren't only losing, you're getting creamed. Only 3 of your losses have been by less than 10 points, and the smallest margin was a touchdown. At least the Lions weren't getting creamed every game last season.

...But uh...stay optimistic.
Haha, I'm sorry.

I'm excited to see how you turn this around next season and beyond.

Come on man...You gotta give me some credit. I've had a close game or two haha

London has made me a believer. Despite his 62 overall rating and C potential, he has won me over. If he progresses into the low 70s within the next couple of years, I think he can be a long-term guy in the slot. It'll be interesting to see how much money he demands this off-season when his contract is up. I'm still debating on if I will let him "test the market" or if he will be one of the 3 guys I am allowed to re-sign prior to free agency.

The off-season can't come soon enough. While the on-the-field stuff has become tough to deal with, the outside the game stuff has gotten much more fun. I am all into scouting and looking at potential free agents. I have some ideas of what I'd like to do to fix this thing.

[Matt10]

Maybe even a playbook change there DGZ?
