  1. if worded different it wasnt really a dig, he could of said they dont have a superstar on defense they rally and scheme around, but they all play solid defense as a team, it would have got the same point across, with him feeling the need to speak out in this tone, i would expect Chase to play and back up the need for him to speaking or he's pretty much just a punk needing attention
  2. you say Mixon had 5 yard the 1st half.. how many times did they run it? the steeler always do the exact same thing pressure front short zones ,. which covers hot read passed and keeps the defense up short to stop the run. and we always do the same shit. run once or twice then try screens and outside runs, whihc rarely work , the offensive line and Mixon have not produced what they should for what they are getting paid, but the play calling and formation/personal really has not been that helpful either.
  3. i could agree with you when Mixon had his high contract numbers and you stated that he wasnt worth that much , .. but now your acting as blind as Zach with the shotgun formation.. under center did work improving the run game. Mixon did a fine job. you just wont admit it.
  4. yep. his love of screens gets annoying, his commitment trying to continually fit players into his scheme rather then tweaking his scheme to the strengths of the players he has is something else.
  5. sadly the announcer even commented during the 1st drive on how we started playing under center more and it had been working well for us, so i guess our awesome offensive gameplan was to switch back to what wasnt working?
  6. lol but Trey dont get to play the bengals twice a year .. LOL ( sorry couldnt resist)
  7. for me its the constant shotgun formation , the Stealers have always ran an aggressive defense and a shotgun offense is not the way to beat it. under the center, run game and play action to compliment it. our tackles always get burnt because we set them up to get burnt, their outside rushers strength is to spread wide and make the tackles play angle out, draws and screens dont work cause the backers sit in a zone and cover that.. sad offensive gameplan .
  8. lol and that day you will know we won because they "let us win"
  9. Hey Hudson was another teams scraps and so was Hurst, the problem is they always seem to have to wait till the years almost done before settling on which TE on a 1 yr deal is the good one .. now watch and see .... Hudson gets signed away and to keep the TE consistent they'll sign Irv smith to a multi year deal ..
  10. and if not , that will be 3 TEs that have left for big money .. the next Tes should pay us for being here, this seems to be the place to play TE 1 year and then go make money elsewhere LOL
  11. the stoolers def will play aggressive, we need to run alot and play action off it alot. would be wise to use very little shotgun. and throw the ball over the top a few time, even if its incomplete , the stooler play defense with pressure and set up to stop the hot reads and quick hitters, once you show your throwing deep they back off. which opens the run game and even more playaction.
  12. I believe , he is also a FA at the end of the year, i'd say if he can continue as he is, he will be able to afford his own box in whatever in place he lands.. in short i hate to see him go but he is setting himself up nicely for a starting job somewhere and i find it doubtful we'll pay him enough to consider sitting behind Burrow .. .
  13. Why did the Bengals pick him when better ones were available .... lol how many times have we asked that question ...
  14. lol Joe Burrowless Bengals are still winning with some god awful ref calls and non calls and its gotta be cause we're on the roids man....
  15. where is chrisman or whoever we had last year? fuck it... get Huber back.. what was the logic in keeping this guy ??
  16. actually right now FAs come because of Joe Burrow is a winner, and they want to play on a team with playoff expectations.. now if they see that same team without Joe burrow still make the playoffs, and that team has Joe Burrow signed for many seasons .... it shows that signing here does not mean 1 injury and your playoff hopes are gone. it will only offer more to players coming here when the contracts being offered are close .
  17. i understood when Burrow was calf limited.. however it needs to be recognized when in the shotgun the DL plays spread out , the offensive tackles are even more on an island because the DEs start so far out, and they can design the pass rush to get to the spot the QB stands at in the shotgun... when under center they cant spread out, the QB is moving either back 3 -5-7 steps or to rolling to either side or if the DTs spread out and not covering the center they are grabbing an easy 3-4 yards on a sneak. . .. and add in it gives the rb a running forward start . the more variables you stack for the defense the more they have to cover.
  18. just curious what was the most optimistic time frame for Burrow? i doubted we would be viable past the new year, but atm anything (no matter how unlikely) can happen..... is a February return date even possible? and if it is... do they risk long term damage for a early return, since honestly they managed to get there without him?
  19. for me smith hasnt worked out . if they want to give Hudson a 2 mil yr multi year contract, if he would accept it , i feel he would earn it.
  20. hey now ..the last time AJ started for the bengals we got Joe Burrow !
  21. Lawrence said Wednesday that he was pretty close to the tunnel entrance and felt like it would be quicker for him to walk with some help to the EverBank Stadium locker room and X-ray facility than to wait for the cart to maneuver its way through the extra equipment to get to him. So that's what he did -- although he did admit he might have had some regret.
  22. he was lost a few times. but the oL did very little to help him relax. the time of possession and amount of plays are the killing stat. the defense played 15 minutes more then the offense, you can not have that. the run game didnt work because they keyed on short passes and run game, if you dont throw it over the top to back them up they play short and stop you.. which they did,
