volcom69 Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Just now, AMPHAR said: UGLY Yep! Like I said I'm not mad that they lost, it's how they lost. They had 10 days to prepare, and they looked awful. Penalties everywhere, Dalton had no time, confusion all around in the defense, hell I saw guys just standing around looking like they don't know what to do. I don't know what to make of this team, but I think to many important people have left this team. I just hope it dosnt fall apart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwalling Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Is it time and past time to bench Williams and Bodine? Let me see Derron Smith at safety. Give Westerman or Johnson a shot at center. Can they really be worse than that was?! Maybe the rest of the team would take note of a couple starters getting benched. I miss having an offensive line as good as the one that just manhandled our D line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COB Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 It was a horror show. We no longer retain the vestiges of the toughness Zim instilled in this squad. And in my opinion that toughness informed both sides of the ball. It's gone, it's in Minnesota now. You can turn on a Vikings game and very plainly see it. It wasn't Marvin. It was never Marvin. Our guys don't play like a team. We have a collection of players, the sort which requires an inspiring leader. Marvin isn't that type. Andy is not. Guenther is not. Zampese - fail. We're screwed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might even get down to a 7-9, if they stay on this trajectory. U-g-l-y, you ain't got no alibi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 The schedule after New England appears to get significantly easier. Our very own redbengalsbucks (I believe it was him) called a 2-4 start to the season preceding a playoff berth for this reason. I'm not saying I'm optimistic. It's impossible to feel good about these turds after Sunday's performance. But there's a readily visible route to the playoffs. @ Patriots -- Hell no vs. Browns -- Clear favorites vs. Redskins (London) -- Probable favorites @ Giants -- Tough but winnable vs. Bills -- Tough but winnable @ Ravens -- Tough but winnable vs. Eagles -- Tough but winnable @ Browns -- Probable favorites vs. Steelers -- Barring serious improvements and better health, hell no @ Texans -- Tough but winnable vs. Ravens -- Tough but winnable Take care of business and snag a few of those tougher games and a 9 or 10 win finish is still practical. The bigger problem might be that the wild card competition in the AFC this year looks like it'll be loaded. Don't take this as homerism though. Even if they find a way to steal a playoff berth I have zero faith that they'd do anything with it. This team is highly flawed in every area: offense, defense, special teams, coaching, and the front office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volcom69 Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Sure there are many winnable games on the schedule, but the truth is they are just not very good right now. I feel awful for Dalton, this o-line is trash, pure TRASH! I have never seen Dalton have to run around like this before! So they have Green, and who else? Hell Dalton has nobody else to throw to. The bengals decided to let Jones and Sanu walk, and they are both doing great with there new teams, meanwhile the guys here can't get open! So the defense has pretty much one pass rusher and that's about it? The talent which I thought they had is not very good. These CBs they drafted are trash, Jones seems to have lost a step, what a mess! Coaching really blows! So glad they had 10 days to prepare for that mess that we watched yesterday! I'm really starting to think there time has past, everybody who was good is now playing or coaching for other teams, the guys here just look lost. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volcom69 Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Every week Marvin Lewis says the bengals issues are very fixable, so I will sit here and wait patiently till they are fixed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingwilly Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I echo the comment that the window has closed. The O-line is really really bad. Can't recall a Bengals oline this shabby. Maybe the one in front of Akili or Klingler... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mike Brown is satisfied with 13 seasons of no playoff wins, there's no use in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
