I agree with Enquirer columnist Jason Williams' analysis of the Patriots game ("Williams: This season-opening loss is inexcusable," Sept. 8). I drank the Kool-Aid and went out and bought an all-orange Bengals T-shirt and wore it to the game. I was particularly disappointed with the defense. It appears the Bengals still can't stop the run.
The offense wasn't sharp, and it looked like they were moving in slow motion during the first half. While we could not stop the Patriots run game, our run game looked like last year's. Finally, I have noticed over the years that backup quarterbacks or "second-rate quarterbacks" are underestimated by the Bengals and seem to play very well against this team.
