Madieu Superstar Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I should also mention that the Bengals interviewed Hank Fraley to be their offensive Line coach for the 2021 season. Fraley is currently thriving as the Lions OL coach. They just scored 30+ points with 3 backup OL. Bengals made the wrong choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebengal Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 As much as we want to blame the OL for all of the sacks (with good reason when you don't block Micah Parsons), I can't help but think that some of those sacks are on Burrow. God bless him, he's always trying to make something happen and I admire that, but he needs to learn to throw the ball away. Also, how many times do we see him sitting on the bench with a blank look on his face instead of looking at pictures or reviewing what the defense is doing?

I_C_Deadpeople Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I dunno, even on a lot of plays with no sacks there was a lot of pressure. How many times did he have to run? The entire O just stinks right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleEarl Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I don’t blame Burrow. We can see how fast they are getting to him. We can see how they can’t run the ball. Let’s also not pretend that Parsons and Watt were the only players getting pressure. It’s been a disaster up there so far. I am not totally blaming Pollack either. This was a problem before he got here. On the other hand he’s done zero to make it better. Something has to give and soon. All day Romo was saying “it will get better.” It had better and fast! These guys are a National joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 17 minutes ago, Montana Bengal said: This is how you ruin a QB, when he is in his head and "spread up" he constantly thinks he has to do more than he does and when he thinks that all the time he will not find guys or will make bad throws. If this doesnt get fixed and soon Joe may not be in a place mentally where he can play the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|BlackJesus| Posted September 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Another issue, the Bengals have played QBs with no tape of them playing for those teams to prepare with. Call it The Mike White Effect. The Squeelers and Cowboys had all of last year's tape to study on Burrow for tendencies. But the Bengals had no tape on Mitch playing for Shittsburgh and only one game ever with Rush. Since NFL defense is so based on scheme, this could also explain why they came out looking unprepared defensively and gave up early scores in both games. And then why they get better in the second half, once they know what they are dealing with. Unfortunately, Flacco with the Jets is also a new commodity with only 2 games of tape. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but if this 'Effect' does exist, then they would ostensibly be better off playing a more skilled Mahomes with lots of tape, than a mediocre Rush/Mitch with none.

For example, I don’t think the referees are biased by NFL home office. They just blow it constantly. BUT…The idea that Jerry Jones has a way to interrupt communications for the visiting team at an opportune time doesn’t surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe they're all stupid and half-blind but also too pure of heart to ever shave a couple points for somebody.

On the other hand I do think the arrogant assholes that have hit the lottery and have enough cash to own a NFL team would try to cheat if given the opportunity. Jerry Jones being exhibit A.

The headset stuff can happen to visiting teams anywhere. As for the low scoreboard UFO I think JJ don't give a shit so long as everyone can see it. The refs don't either. It's uphill both ways for this franchise, that's nothing new. If they thought a SB loss changed everything.. Well, that'd explain a lot actually.

The league has created a Frankenstein monster by regulating itself out of legitimacy through endless/ interminable rules favoring offenses. The dynamic resulting from any human being being able to minimally— let alone fairly—officiate, is literally impossible. There never again can be anything remotely close to “let them play”. In days gone by, there could be extended lengths of games where one would see this. Now, you hold your breath for mere quarters before the shenanigans begin. This is all on Roger and his avaricious legion of owners—every last morsel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
