Notes: Is anybody surprised that the Bengals could beat the Colts in week 4 of the preseason when Peyton Manning was on the sidelines in street clothes? Do you now understand why we want to toss week 4 as soon as possible? Unfortunately for the Bengals that was the highlight of the preseason for them. They need to show more before the PossessionPoints weekly matchups start pointing their way. Their initial game with the Ravens does not stack up in their favor.
