Chinny’s back: ‘Doom’s Day’ on Sunday
DEXTER JACKSON OUT;
CHINNY ‘DOOM’ IS IN
NDUKWE GETS FIRST ACTION
SINCE TRAINING CAMP INJURY
Cincinnati Bengals strong safety Dexter Jackson is OUT with a thumb injury, and that means Chinedum Ndukwe is IN.
LUDWIG AT LARGE wants to know from loyal readers if this scenario hurts or helps the Bengals in their quest to defeat Tennessee in their home opener on Sunday, Sept.14.
So … what do you think? Lay it on me, studs & studettes. Personally, I believe Ndukwe is a HUGE ASSET to the squad. He’s big, fast, strong, has good range, communicates well, is smart and — on top of it all — a great leader.

Depends on the rush. One has it that Tennessee is due to win this one. Two has it that Cincy won last year and Haynesworth didn’t play. If Cincy can get to the QB they can win it. If Tennessee gets to the QB look out.By JimB

Chickster, I don’t think with CN in, we lose a thing with DJ out as long as Chiddy is healthy. My gripe is with Jackson…A thumb??!! I’ve played with my wrist fractured and thumb disjointed and in a soft cast. Either there is more to it or DJ is a weak bi#*h. Go get ‘em CN and help get us on the board.By Blindeye

Joke in the Natti. If a tornado hits everyone should run to Paul Brown stadium because touchdowns never happen there.By Troy

I am glad DOOM is back because he is a better safety than Dexter. Is it me or is Dexter a step slow? Chinadum came from a great school in ND. He just may be the leader of the Bengal secondary.By patkisor
