4-1: The Cardiac Cats are ATOP THE AFC NORTH WHAT THE HELL

Uh, whoa.
This was never expected to be a high scoring game, but this was also never expected to be a Bengals win, either. So, guys, way to defy expectations yet again. 4-1 and looking VERY good.
Cedric Benson rushing for 100+ yards against one of the league's toughest rushing defenses is nothing short of astounding. I still hate him, but he's been putting in GOOD work this season. Andre Caldwell is looking like a fabulous draft pick long after the fact, and here's hoping he can continue to develop.
There's still no logical reason as to why the team is getting it done in this manner, but when have the Bengals ever been logical about anything? Better soak it up and enjoy a 1st-round draft pick in the teens, because that's where we're headed apparently.
Also, I had not heard about the death of Vikki Zimmer, but that's a very sad circumstance and it's neat to see the players of this franchise carry that news with a sense of honor and respect as they played their game. Say what we will about the front office; this team cares about its members, and that includes coaches.
Two more games left before the bye week: Home against an inconsistent Houston team and home against a self-destructing Cleveland team. There's no way this team can be 6-1 before the bye week...is there?
