    It would not have looked as bad as it did if Tee made his catches and if Hudson didn't fall down on his.

     

    That gets fixed, and we start putting up points soon.

     

    I would like to see us do some of what the Rams did and start finding the soft spots in coverage. 

     

    The D was great Monday, but there were times where Stafford was able to just pick it apart. I'd like to see us implement some of that. Especially over the middle. Force the safeties to stop playing 2 high and eventually when Joe's calve allows him to plant, the big plays will start to return.

     

    thats a good point, with tee, but still.  as far as soft spots in the coverage, there are less, because they could crack our line with donald so they could drop more. where we brought safeties, corners, etc a little more often it seemed. cant argue with the defense being tits.

    I think you’re giving the offense way too much credit. There actually wasn’t much creativity per say, as there was moving JaMarr around to all 3 WR positions throughout the game. That’s literally all they did. He ran the routes a slot guy typically would. There were no other additions to the offense that I saw. 
     

     

     

    thats absolutely not all they did.  Jamarr lined up as a second running back in the shotgun, from that position he ran a parallel screen, on 1-2 plays, he went in motion from there to various spots for normal route getting matchups they wanted, including having him in motion at the snap so he wasnt even in a set spot at the snap. atleast 10 snaps involved motion or formation changes that we have never shown before. 

     

    THEN, add in the RPO when he hit chase on the really short pass immediately, in total there were probably 15 snaps that were quite unique in terms of what we normally run in this offense and what we ran the first two weeks.

    The limitations remain but there are ways to build on what they've shown. Next time that fake pitch bootleg isn't and we do pitch it or some kind of option/screen if the DE wants to overcommit.

     

    So yeah it's on tape now but the good guys have also run that play successfully & the playbook expands accordingly, maybe it's not that fake pitch at all but still the same set, motion, & personnel. 

     

    They sound pretty confident in how they're pacing the season & willingness to eat a couple L's for the sake of a healthy roster. Time will tell if that was the right call but we do know the offense will catch fire if JB stays on the field.

     

     

     

    thats true, with anything, if youre defending something, you saw it, but you also have to second guess how much you can commit, did they change it so it looks the same but is in fact altered. that cat and mouse is there regardless of having to make changes. joe and zac definitely sounded care free in their conferences today.

    Mixon had 65 yards and it felt way better than average somehow. He ran hard when we needed it, and I think it made a big difference, but we're still so predictable in the run game.  Maybe I'm just not noticing it, but do we ever have guys five wide, in motion, or in bunch formations on run plays? 

     

    65 is the new 100 it feels like 65 a game will get you 1100 rushing yards on the season. i think mixon is 13th in RB rushing yards this season currently on the average games he has had he is about average, 2 guys averaging 100 per game, mcaffery, and swift. then it drops under 90 ypg.

    So uh,,, how's McCarrons' wife doing these days? She around the Nati' lately? Wouldn't mind seeing her. 

     

     

     

    i approve this message. nothing harmful said here, shes a model, beauty queen and tv personality and very attractive.

    yikes, he didnt say he was gonna take her out for a 3-way for lunch, im not sure jokingly hinting that a model beauty queen tv personality being attractive is off the cuff.

     

     

  3. looking at the Titans first three, weeks, has anyone watched them play?

     

    watching the game highlights and reviews and the box scores, it looks like its the same old titans, stop the run on them and dont get tricked into getting beat deep by one of their B tier WR's.

     

    theyve been kept to 3 points by the browns as well. Henry CANNOT go off if we want to win, itll be like the ravens game where we are just chasing our tails if he does. We know we have the guys to stop him, but its hard to stop that guy forever.

     

    Tannehill sucks still, harass him a little and he will make mistakes.

  4. depending on the talent level and scheme creativeness, sometiems it takes 2-3 weeks to figure out most of whats going on, sometimes its 6-8 (miami) to figure out whats going on. and soon as someone stops it, everyone has the film how to stop it or grossly slow it down.

     

    Puka is a solid player, but there was no chance he was going to sustain the Kupp like numbers too long. I am however surprised it was us who stopped it. with the youth and fresh back off injury squad we have, i expected him to have 12 catches.

    mark schlereth fucking sucks, when i had a hour drive to work here in colorado, that clown was on local sports radio, fan favorite, has his own green chili "mark schlereth stinkin good green chili" no joke, had a truck driving around wrapped with that logo and stuff.

     

    but he is a walking catchphrase about old school hard nose knuckle dragging bloody nose football. he is the one who talks about just piss your pants if you gotta go during a game, a mans man, que tim the toolman taylor grunting.

     

    i fucking hate this guy, youre gonna hear at least 15 cliche "hardnose football" style comments during this game. and at least 2. "back in my day" macho-man stories.

     

    man i fucking hate that guy.

    Since the Oilslickers kind of suck ass...

    any thought to sitting Joe and maybe even

    starting McCarron?  OK.  Browning.

    But sit Joe.  A healthier Joe and a sloppy W?

     

    Go Texans... beat the Squeels

    Go... shit in your hats CFT and FCB (Former Cleveland Browns)

     

    mccarron has absolutely no idea what the offense is, and he has absolutely no way to learn it aside from post practice time with whomever can spend that time with him. 

     

    mccarron isnt anywhere close to playing for the bengals.

  7.  

    It was clear much of the success, even though it mostly stalled out, from Monday was due to the creative ways of moving the WR's pre snap and the post snap direction fakes, etc.

     

    The problem is, now all of that is on film, the next DE wont fall for the fake pitch roll out, he is coming for joe, they next defense has film of the pre snap motion and what it turned into post snap, so where you would think "cool, now we can build on that" its almost the opposite, thats almost all trash now, until joe is healthy and we can run full speed playbook wide open gameplans, we are stuck making tweaks weekly to try to "trick" the defense and get some open shots at guys at LEAST mid range. 

     

    This is a pretty big test for Zac, Brian and Joe. Honestly I was impressed with as much creative movement as they were able to do in 8 days time. Obviously its all window dressing on the base playbook, like if chase is wide left on a play, they last night put him in the back field and then put him in motion in hopes of a clot, LB or safety having to go cover him outside vs the set CB who would be out there since he was in the backfield.

     

    so its kind of easy, figuratively speaking, to make these changes, because 1-2 people have a slightly changed role, and the play itself is the same for everyone post snap. just a formation or motion alteration to try to gain and advantage. 

     

    this is easily the biggest chess match the bengals players and staff have had to play since coming together. 

     

    I am almost excited to see what they come up with with time. I am assuming, for no real reason, that this is going to be the process until after the bye hoping joe is close to 100% at that point if there are no setbacks.

    Defense obviously won this game.  Hendrickson, Wilson, and Hill were all standout performers.  The next two opponents don’t exactly have high-powered offenses and we’re going to need to more of the same.  
     

    Offense needs to start finding answers.  Specifically, they need to start quickly and actually score in the first quarter.  They haven’t done it yet. 

     

    seems unlikely unless we play some trash defenses. 

     

    its like these broncos fans being mad that russell wilson sucks. "we gotta do something" yea man good luck with that, dude is still gonna suck next week.

     

    bengals will hit stride the second week joe is healthy, maybe the first. until then, its gonna be motion, deception and mixing it up cause now allllllll thats on film.

    i think considering we  now seem to specialize in the 3 plays and a bad punt style of offense...

    its hard to really judge the defense. 

    i think we could cut them some slack because:

    frankly the offense has done nothing to help them. 

    no change of field position 

    no time to rest 

    no points to defend

     

     

    yea all that was brought up, they were doodoo from the jump in the first two games. or at least the ravens one, run D was pretty tough, they essentially scored 7 points per qtr.

    yea but  right before that last rams td drive what did the bengals do?

    • 1st & 10 at CIN 24

      (6:01 - 4th) (Shotgun) J.Mixon right guard to CIN 22 for -2 yards (E.Jones, A.Donald).
    • 2nd & 12 at CIN 22
    • (5:14 - 4th) (Shotgun) PENALTY on CIN, Delay of Game, 5 yards, enforced at CIN 22 - No Play.
    • 2nd & 17 at CIN 17

      (5:14 - 4th) (Shotgun) J.Mixon left guard to CIN 16 for -1 yards (A.Donald).
    • 3rd & 18 at CIN 16

      (4:30 - 4th) (Shotgun) T.Williams right end to CIN 20 for 4 yards (L.Murchison; M.Hoecht).
    • the whole world knew we were running, if Burrow cant take a snap from center  and hand off then put Browning in , and whats with a delay of game penalty?  

     

    yea i dont think two miscommunication/blown coverages by very very very young players had absolutely anything to do with the 6 play drive the bengals had.. what so ever really. they were so tired they forgot the defense? 

     

    the point is very valid, just not really in that instance.

    50 pass attempts, geez

     

    wasnt expecting that with him coming in hurt, but we also didnt have lots of options. with donald taking 2 gays the run defense is gonna be pretty good, our big plays involved a bit of deceit to be successful, so it wasnt something sustainable, got the W tho. would have predicted 30 attempts for joe before the game though.

    In case you didn't see it, he took a bad angle on a tackle attempt and got his head/neck wrenched.  With that said I haven't seen an update since.

    Don't let this distract you from the fact that In 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba "Spare Tire" Dixon

    Let Jones or Yoshi play.They can't do any worse than he is doing.

     

    lol, yea sure, the defense would hate to just easily single cover a no name dude from the bench and have extra attention for boyd and chase, its not like the defense is slacking off tee because he dropped some balls, even as a decow he is worth more than the other two.

    Burrow….not good. 

     

    better than everyone else on the roster by a large margin.

     

    burrow making some off throws due to injury i feel is likely a LOT better than browning being trusted to read this tricky defense, taking longer drops and dealing with donald, etc. browning has taken what 5-6 snaps ever? i dont need that negativity out there.

  13. Just now, T-Dub said:

     

    I would like for them to please not draft schlubs. I understand that they're not going to strike gold with every pick but it's been more like gas lines and sewer pipe. They've done such a poor job drafting OL that they seem to have given up entirely.

     

    They're going to need to get a few right.

     

    everyone sucks at drafting oline, because college offenses dont make linemen that are ready for the NFL, an RPO or run QB or roll out every pass QB makes linemen who arent blocking rushers every play like the NFL has. 

     

    i have poste the data before, which is that 30% of first and second round draft pick linemen in the NFL make it to an extension on the team that drafted them, 70% are out of the league, cut or not re-signed by the team that drafted them. which is why there isnt even half the linemen in the league being good or better.

     

    its a shit show, really youre shooting for getting linemen who can be the best fit for your offense style, more so than just finding great guys, cause thats so so so hard to do. in any great line, there is linely 1-2 guys being hidden by the talent around them, and the offense is schemed to continue to hide it.

     

    this and finding a legit QB are the two hardest things for an NFL team to do

    These announcers have to shut up about reps.  Joe throws that stuff in his sleep, to these WRs.  He is injured and not throwing properly.

     

    yea, no. reps are vital to keep up to speed, like nba players shoot everyday even though they are the best in the world, the reps are vital, the timing, is vital to keep sharp, they are 100% correct, the reps are effecting it as well as the calf throwing off the typicaly timing. both are a factor 100%

    Why are bengals just in shotgun

     

    because so far in joes career, the oline was getting him murdered under center, and turning his back on the defense was getting him murdered, so we moved to shotgun a year or two ago for most all offensive plays. joe keeps everything in front of him, etc.
