What I am concerned about is more that teams have figured out our schemes and what we do well and what we do poorly and adjusted to it. My concern is less about individual players and rather our systems themselves. I think they have figured out that our D can be beat in the dink and dunk game and that bracketing coverage to Jamar is ideal because at times Joe wants to force it to him. My concern is that our coaches are going to need to adjust the game planning going forward and Im not sure they are capeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised it took this long for teams to figure out that Chase was the best WR on the team. Also surprised that Taylor and Burrow can’t pivot and target the other talented WRs on the team. Boyd had one target prior to the 4th quarter on Sunday. Awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

membengal Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 Harbaugh himself made that point after we waxed the Ravens. He wasn't wrong. Do we have the right coaching staff to navigate this? Open question, But Go is also right, there is a lot about the first nine weeks that makes the next 8 interesting. More interesting than many of us thought pre-season. I think my prediction was for 8 wins - so, if the 3-post person is calling me out...ok I guess?

Cat Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 I just had a chuckle to myself after listening to the Bengals Booth podcast - Mixon said "we just need to get back to playing Bengals football" - dude - that's what y'all are doing now - you need to NOT play Bengals football!

Dude, you (Mixon) need to learn how to run to daylight rather than into a mass of humanity where the hole ain't and STFU. Chubby has the ability to blast through those things, you fall down and go "boom" and give BS press conferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven`t even bothered to watch the 2nd half of the game yet by choice. But this comment with all do respect is just rediculous in my opinion, and not really worth arguing all of the reasons you are wrong. Give Burrow some better protection and a year removed from knee surgery and he will be even better. But pretty sure most would take this version over Dalton.

LostInDaJungle Posted November 11, 2021 Report Share Posted November 11, 2021 To be fair.... I haven't given up belief in Burrow or Chase. Burrow needs to realize that he has to spread the ball around more, especially when he's in "trouble". God bless Burrow, he's throwing picks because he trusts Chase. That connection is only going to grow. It's "wise" to sit QB's for a year, and WR's usually don't catch on until year two... That's how good these guys are. I still believe in Burrow and Chase. Now, even after the Ravens game, people still had qualms about coaching. And great play can make a bad scheme look good. I'm less concerned with Lou A. He's had two games go to shit on him. After an insane let down against the Jets, you have to trot your boys out on to the field down by 7. If the pass rush had been even mildly effective, the scheme wasn't terrible. There's no disguise, and execution sucks. But Lou calls a decent enough scheme, if you ignore the Jets game. Zac on the other hand.... You could roll dice with Run, pass, 5 wide, I form... And have as cohesive an offense as Zac's. Like to the point where I'm starting to wonder if it's some weird sabermetrics thing. O-Coord: Hey Zac, the computer says to run 5 wide, all in routes. Zac: Seriously? I would think play action... O-Coord: Nope, it says that play has a 57.4% chance of success against a predicted 0 blitz. Plus, it keeps us unpredictable, remember? Zac: Yeah, some a-hole in Virginia is going to think I'm a moron, but I'll call it. Honestly, the only thing redeeming about Zac's offense is Joe Burrow. We saw "normal" QB's run this against vanilla defenses in the preseason and get nothing out of it. It's like a story with all of the pages out of order. And all of this 5 wide sh*t is going to get the kid killed. He took WAY too many hits last weekend. You have Joe Mixon.... Honestly, Taylor makes me miss "Shovel pass on 3rd and 23" Bratkowski. There's no "Run to set up the pass", or even "Pass to set up the run". It's more "We gave the blind ball boy a set of darts and a 5th of Jack".
