Dignified

Wow, it's hard to tell who was the biggest flatline on this final Sunday of the NFL regular season, Denver or Cincinnati.

On the one hand, the Bengals were completely dominated by a craptastic, although playoff bound, Jets. On the other, the Broncos were demolished by an even suckier Chiefs team.

Decisions, decisions.

I guess the dubious honor of crappiest performance would have to go to Denver. When their game was being played, they were simply a win and either a loss by the Ravens or jets and they would be in. They played like the Cleveland Browns in a summer scrimmage. You have to seriously wonder about child genius McDaniels coaching ability after blowing a six-0 start and choking away the playoffs in Oakland and Kansas City. Who could have figured that Kyle Orton wouldn't be the teams biggest problem this year?

None of that excuses the horrid Bengals. Somebody should remind them that they aren't just playing out the string of another losing season. Not only did their incompetence almost guarantee a one-and-done playoff appearance for the Queen City, it subjected America to another crappy Jets game. Had the Bengals actually won, we would all be treated to the high flying, semi-insane Houston Texans. Nope, hope everyone likes the Sanchize and more Shonn Greene.

  1. AFTER SIX GAMES, THE LONG ORANGE LINE GOT SERIOUS ABOUT WINNING THE 'BIGGEST FLATLINE' AWARD....AND DARN IF THEY DIDN'T PULL OUT ALL THE STOPS AND ACHIEVE THEIR QUEST.
    THAT'S ONLY FOR THIS YEAR THOUGH. THE WASH. REDSKINS FROM THE 70's WIN THE OVERALL ALL-TIME CHOKE AWARD BECAUSE THEY HAD LESS GAMES TO PULL OFF THE FEAT WITH....HOWEVER, THAT DOESN'T NEGATE MY HEARTBREAK AND SORROW --ESPECIALLY BECAUSE PART OF THAT SLIDE WAS AT THE HANDS OF THE CURSED RAIDERS.
