Bengals1181 Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Yea AJ had three drops and a fumble or Dalton is pushing 350yds and about 62% completions on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengals1181 Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 [quote name='kennethmw' timestamp='1356580058' post='1199609'] I agree with you on all of that, except the intentional grounding. I think even Phil Sims showed in the game , that he was out of the tackle box. That was a mike Carey crew call, just like the PI call that should have gone on troy, and the holding call on Leon. I think Carey is tomlin's cousin. [/quote] Grounding was legit. Simms started to say it was wrong but ultimately said it was the right call once he drew in the tackle boxes.

[/quote] I guess it depends what you consider a drop. The one where Troy hit him I wouldnt consider a drop, but it was a great throw by Dalton. He definitely dropped a 30 yarder or so. In the first quarter we threw one deep on 1st and 10 from like the 50, it looked like AJ got tripped up but still couldnt have turned on his extra burner to make the play. I think he might have thought the ball was a little farther then it actually was. Looks at first glance like dalton overthrew it, but it was very close to being a huge 50 yard TD. Hopefully in the playoffs we connect on a few of those deep balls. Could be the difference between a win and a loss. I like that they tried throwing it deep to him 5-6 times or so, it opens up those short passes where he can easily pick up 8-12 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khatmandude Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Good: Playoffs!?!? Geno DLine in general Leon...good for him. He works hard. I like when hard work is rewarded. Adam Jones Nelson for the most part Zimmer - again am SO impressed with the little details in his defense. He's thorough. Josh Brown Huber Pat MF'in Sims......let the big boy eat. He looks hungry. His teammates love him and see his value. Whit - calming presence Andre - Did Woodley even play yesterday? AJ Bad: Offensive playcalling Dalton - aside from his decent numbers, he simply misses too many open guys, locks onto his first read and typically goes there 9 out of 10 times. Freaks out in the pocket too soon. But he's going to be a HOF QB because this is only his 2nd year. I keep reminding myself of this. Gruden - Somebody needs to throat punch him and remind him he's supposed to be an offensive genius. OLine the last few weeks BJGE - I have a new 4-letter abbreviation for him: SMDH. Fool me once, shame on you....fool me twice, .....well....you can't get fooled again! Offensive Coordinator Adam Jones' mental lapse on the TD; otherwise great game by him AJ's propensity to make dumb mistakes at times. Rare, but for an elite player he's got to take care of his drops.

He could only block one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] not sure it was andre's fault. Was either zeitler's or Greshams. Probably zeitler. Smith took Woodley wide, but ziggy hood (the guy lined up right in front of smith in the first picture) came in untouched between smith and zeitler. For some reason Zeitler helped to double Hampton, which left no one to guard hood. Either Zeitler was supposed to pick up hood or gresham was supposed to pick up woodley. If Dalton hadn't been sent fleeing by an unblocked Hood, Smith's guy (woodley) would have been in no position to get to Dalton. Dalton would have been standing near Boling in that second pic.

oldschooler Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 This could have been said already, but we beat the Stealers at their house to earn a Playoff berth while basically ending their season. And making Stealer Nation have a shitty Christmas and offseason. There is no bad. It's all good. Sweet nectar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[b]And in the end, he did[/b]. [/quote] But barely. The Steelers are not the juggernaut they used to be on defense. Fuck their statistical rank at #1. We did miss on several pass plays that would have tipped the game [i]way[/i] into our favor, but averaging less than a yard a carry is embarrassing. Me myself I kept thinking that it was a perfect game to insert Leonard in for a few series after we saw the oline and BGE weren't getting anywhere as Leonard has traditionally done very well against the Steelers., Or at least doing SOMETHING to mitigate the middle run blitz...in fact, IIRC we were able to run the ball in big chunks against a few of our opponents that were doing the exact same thing not long ago. It's a matter of getting the RB to the next level through that logjam in the middle. Or, barring that, going outside of it, which I don't thin k we really even tried to do (other than the one busted Marvin Jones reverse...which we should have run a LOT earlier in the game once we saw what they were trying to do). Eh, anyway....game over, we won...learn from it, improve on offense and hopefully move on in the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Andy gets more reps with our #2 receiver (insert name) he can audible out when teams stack the line like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
