Our record & the last few games would indicate otherwise.

 

Or was that all because of Dalton? :frantics:

 

 

 Marv's a problem as THEIR record would indicate.  Mike Brown is a bigger problem as THEIR record would indicate.  Dalton only part of the problem as THEIR record would indicate.  Mentioned atleast twice now.

 

Refs.  Not a problem as the good teams records would indicate.

How is that a reflection of the OL? Each defensive group would be more to blame than them. But primarily, the LBs. It is like the middle of the field is constantly wide open.

Exactly.  However, using common sense doesnt allow for a discussion.  Youre talking about a cat that spends all day bypassing truths and pinpointing the one negative (also known as a disagreement) that he can provide a snarky comment to.

Well hell guys, I didn't realize Driskell played LB while also being the head coach and owner.  That's amazing!  The season is saved.

 

Also, duly noted:  NFL officiating is fine because some teams are doing well.  How silly of me to question them!

 

 

See Hooky, Exhibit A.

That's not true. He has as much mobility as some successful QBs. Brady isn't a mobile QB. He has to have receivers that can get open after their initial route. I don't think the bengals receivers are good at that. Even AJ. Boyd may be the best in that regard.

You’re confusing general mobility with pocket mobility.

 

He doesn’t have to be Lamar Jackson

 

Was Peyton Manning mobile?

Now go watch Peyton Manning move around the pocket to buy himself time. 

 

Dalton doesn’t do that.

He’s either standing still or leaving the pocket.

The problem with Dalton isn't mobility, it's decision making under pressure, and for the 40 plus years I've been watching this sport, the very best QB's have a sixth sense about the impending rush and instinctively know when to sidestep a diving rusher, roll out to create more time for the play and see downfield the whole time they're doing all that. Dalton locks into WR's, especially AJ, which causes INT's because his throws are sometimes predictable in terms of where the ball is going to be delivered relative to the route being run.

 

I don't think Dalton sucks but he's an average QB in this league and nothing more. Sometimes there IS something to that "it" factor, and we are going to see whether or not Driskel has that on Sunday. 

 

Our team sucks right now though. Our defense is awful in historical proportions, Lewis taking over the defensive calls isn't helping, our kicker sucks, our coach sucks, our owner sucks, we're pretty banged up, our QB and oline are mediocre and the offense as a whole is also by extension mediocre.

 

Honestly the brightest spot on our team is probably the consistently great return work Erickson is putting in (when it isn't getting called back due to a block in the back penalty). That, and Joe Mixon, whom isn't as involved in the offense as much as he should be. Maybe Uzomah's play as well. He's been a surprise in the absence of everyone else at TE named Tyler. Also Tyler Boyd. He's been excellent as well. Anyone else?
