Patriots vs Bengals Preview

October 5, 2013 by Mike Dussault

The inconsistent Cincinnati Bengals host the undefeated New England Patriots in Week 5. It’s an interesting matchup, as the Bengals have been good enough to hand the Green Bay Packers a loss, but also inconsistent enough to sit at just 2-2 through four weeks. New England, on the other hand, has stayed perfect through four games despite not having a litany of offensive weapons they’re accustomed to having.

Despite Cincy being a little erratic and the Pats being under-manned, it’s a surprise that fans only need to pay $122 on average for this one, with a get-in tag of just $39. In fact, it’s just 3% more expensive than Cincinnati Bengals tickets have averaged for 2013 home game price. It’s also a whopping 53% below the average price for Patriots tickets on the road this year.

Despite the soft ticket price this week, this matchup isn’t likely to produce soft results. After all, the Patriots just ousted a borderline desperate Atlanta Falcons on the road last week, yet again without all of their offensive studs. That proved for them once again that as long as their players aren’t dropping passes and running wrong routes like they did against the Jets in week two, Tom Brady can pretty much will them to victory.

The same can be said for Cincinnati, however, who barely lost to the Bears in week one and used a late fury against the Packers to steal an impressive in week three.

Bottom line, however, is whether or not Andy Dalton can out-dual the legendary Tom Brady. It’ll be nice if he can get a helping hand from rookie running back Giovani Bernard. And with Pats defensive tackle (aka wall) Vince Wilfork now on injured reserve, that’s something that just might happen.

Regardless, if Dalton can cut down the mistakes and attack the New England secondary with A.J. Green, the Bengals could pull off another upset. But even if they can’t, Brady and co. will make this an interesting battle that all should enjoy.

Reiss/ESPN Boston: Bill Belichick crafts a new draft tune

Reiss/ESPN Boston: Bill Belichick crafts a new draft tune As we tweeted yesterday, “Nickel is the new base”. In the past, more focus was placed on the base 3-4 defense. Belichick has almost always had a stout 3-4, with powerful, hold-the-fort linemen in the 300-pound range whose primary job was to build a wall at […]
