Gameday Thread - Cincy v. Atlanta

Win next week at Baltimore to get to the halfway point 5-3 and 3-0 in the division, and everything will look rosy. Lose it to fall to 4-4 and two games behind Baltimore, and things will look s**tty.

Shula, NOW I share your frustration with the defense. I thought they lost their discipline in the second half and it burned them.

Oh, and rushing three on third and 16 was damn near criminally dumb...

Totally agree with this...win at Baltimore and everyone will forget this game. I have been saying this forever, but I feel this defense is poorly coached and the schemes that they run are horrible.

We win vs. Clev, Oak and Balt (once) 3-0

Split Denver, Indy, Balt, SD, NO and Pitt 3-3

we go 10-6...balt goes 6-3 and wins div...no wildcard from AFC north

10-6 will get you a wild card...

Why are we handing the division to Baltimore? We still play them twice and can beat them twice. The Bengals will win the AFC North. Screw the Wild Card.

indeed and the steelers will at least split with them

The way we're playing I'm not so sure we can even beat the Raiders. Anyway, being only one game out, I'd say the Bengals still control their own destiny.

And if your watching the game you'll see what I mean. Sad...

I agree, the season is far from over. The D does have to play better though for the team to get where they want to be. It's the defensive inconsistency that gets to me. This week, the pass defense was horrendous.

I'm pretty happy with the run D against the league's best rushing team, even though we gave up 143 yards rushing, no single player broke 60 yards.

And what was with Vick having all day to throw? It was like we got no pass rush on him. I know you have to contain the guy, but give any decent NFL QB 10 sec to find someone downfield and they'll usually complete a pass.

On the bright side, offense looked like it had more teeth today. Time to focus on the Ravens.

Yup. And Tory stood out particularly. He's done.

Yeah the secondary just wasn't quite good enough for this one. Thought they played Vick right, though... keep a pocket formed, contain the edge when he was back and force him to stay in the pocket...but just too much time to throw and allow the Falcons WRs to get open even off their original routes a few times. They made Vick beat him with his arm and damn if he didn't. :(
