I believe this will be similar to the Houston game last year. Over by the 1st quarter.

would that mean... some Teddy Time?

 

disclaimer: the above comment referencing Teddy Bridgewater potentially playing is by no means casting any negative view on the abilities of Case Keenum, nor implying any expectation, or hope, of diminishing performance on Mr Keenum's part. it simply asks the scenario be examined in the hypothetical whether should a large scoring lead is established might it be beneficial to procure Mr Bridgewater actual, but limited, game situation playing time. no opinion is stated herein, either in support or against, nor should one be assumed.

This will be Xavier's first time going up against AJ Green in the regular season, as he missed the 2013 game (his rookie year) due to an ankle injury.  The starters at CB in that game were Shaun Prater and Marcus Sherels...so, it's no wonder they got blown out. 

That defensive starting lineup was kind of embarrassing compared to the riches they have now...Jared and Robison at DE, K-Will and Guion at DT, Greenway, Audie, and Erin at LB, and Prater, Sherels, and Jamarca along with Harry.  

Offensively and defensively, only Robison is left from the starting lineup 4 years ago (although Berger, Jarius, Everson, and Sendejo were also on the team then), but on the Bengals side, they still return a lot defensively from that same team, as still starting for them now, as then are Dunlap and Michael Johnson at DE, Burfict at LB, and Kirkpatrick, Pacman and Iloka in the secondary.  However, offensively they return only Dalton, Green, and Andre Smith.

Yikes.  Helps to invest in defense I guess
