ChabDog’s Big Tent Round Up –11-18-23

Aw shucks, the former Big Red had no business involved in a serious scrum with the very big red Ws. Badgers break through in OT, while Chubba and Co. are .500 chasers. This season could have been worse for Northwestern; they're going bowling, Sparty spanks the looser...

Say, it ‘aint so Joe?

Say, it 'aint so Joe? As you go, so go the Bengals. Hey, the sad truth is that if you aren't ready to really brawl, you're going to lose control of the ball to Baltimore. That's all. And tonight, Cincy wasn't ready to brawl. Just ask Pittsburgh ... we know what's...

For this drop….

For this drop, Boyd was clearly devoid of any coherent explanation. Bengals need to get mad, get angry and bring it with more authority against a formidle feathered force in Raven Haven. Something tells me this game will be a real brawl.

Agree or disagree with MJD

I disagree with MJD on CJ Stroud being now loudly on the stage as MVP; what about sounding off for Jared Goff, quite a cool customer is he. But I agree with MJD that the Steelers will win the AFC North. They have the defense, and they now think they might well having...

ChabDog’s Not-so-quick Picks for Week Nine:

Dolphins-Chiefs -- I wouldn't give the Chiefs much more than 3, that's for sure. Chiefs are coming off a bad loss, and that might be the only reason I'm going with the Chiefs.  Chiefs cover the 2.5... probably not by much. Commies-Patriots -- The thought of the...

TNF Update — Nov. 2 (Steelers over Ti-tans

Lots of hometown hereos in today's spiritually uplifting win for the still standing Steelers. There were the running backs Warren and Harris, who together easily outgained the much balllyhooed Henry. There was Broad-erick Jones, the rookie who stepped in quite capably...

Frank Howard Tribute…

Somewhere in heaven, "Hondo" aka The Capital Punisher aka The Washington Monument, is looking down through his fogged up glasses, and smiling. His franchise is 1 game away. Possibly the most feared hitter in the AL from 1968-1971 or thereabouts, with serious power and...

ChabDog’s Survivor Pool Update:

    Was backed into a bit of a corner tonight, trying to come up with this week's suicide pool selection. Took a flier on Carr and the Saints.. Seemed very difficult to find a heavy favorite at home this week. Cleveland also looked good, at home against...

ChabDog’s Week 8 Recap —

Except for a few sustained, well-conceived and well-executed drives, it was no beauty pageant for Bagent. Bengals extract some super revenge for those painful Super Bowl defeats, and rekindle expectations that this team will complete the business it failed to finish...
