Still think they were going after Carson?

The Enquirer did a little poll about it and Bengal fans are furious, hurt... scared.

It was heart breaking to see quarter back go down 3 minutes into the game on Sunday.
Bengals fans had the same stunned look that UC fans had when Kenyan Martin broke his leg in 2000, which can be likened more universally to seeing your dog getting hit by a car when you are a child. The brain isn't ready.

But time has shown us that it happens. And in football, it happens a lot more than the other big three in the US.

There have been suggestions that Steelers lineman (and former Bengal) Kimo von Oelhoffen was gunning for Carson. In such a heated matchup, if you hadn't seen it, the accusation could carry some real suspicion. However those who did see it--or the 50 gut wrenching times it was replayed--saw the remorse in von Oelhoffen's face and motions.There may have been some dirty plays on that field, but that wasn't one of 'em.

The irony is that the last playoff game the Bengals franchise participated in, way back when the original Browns were still in Cleveland and before 4 existing teams were even a glint in big businessmen's eyes, Bo Jackson, superstar on the other team took his last handoff ever.

"The Raiders went 12-4, won their division and entered the playoffs with a first round bye. In the divisional playoffs Bo started the game with a few big runs. However his last carry was one that I feel hurt the Raiders for ten years. Bo dislocated his hip but some of the blood supply to his hip was cut off.
The bone quickly died and Bo was forced to get hip-replacement surgery and his football career was over forever."

So, I have 2 thoughts. At least Palmer didn't meet that fate, and we won't have to watch Kitna run around like he has a blindfold on in Denver.
