belmontbengal Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I know there are alot of factors to the suck we witnessed tonight...poor defensive schemes, poor pass coverage, poor playcalling, poor reciever play, Willie out early, no pass protection to speak of...BUTI feel like the play that started it all was a red flag thrown by Tony Dungy during a timeout Marvin called for WHO KNOWS WHY. Was it because Chad got dinged after he caught that pass? (I refer to the 25 yarder that was overturned during Marvin's timeout)Why on earth did we not do a no huddle and just run a flippin play? Marv had to have known that the catch was questionable...in fact, Manning ran a no huddle on a questionable first down completion to Utecht on the drive after that...I personally feel that Cincy was moving on that drive and after that play was overturned and Carson got flattened for the fumble that it completely changed the face of the game.Thoughts?disappointed fan in bcreek.

jjakq27 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 This game reminded me of the Jacksonville game last year. Same kinda feeling after they overturned Chad's catch this year as when Reggie Myles got the penalty on the kickoff last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Yeah, I really have no idea why they called that timeout. I was shouting profanity all over the room at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spor_tees Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Yeah, I really have no idea why they called that timeout. I was shouting profanity all over the room at that point.Chad landed on the ball and knocked the wind out of him. He waved to the sideline and they called the TO.

But the minute I saw the first replay I said, that's not a catch. And they called a time out and went to a commenrcial and I said there will be challenge when the come back. And there was. They needed to get to the line and snap that ball. That one is on the coaching staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belmontbengal Posted December 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Yep, that was my thought exactly...seriously...just run a slam with Rudi...who knows it may have ended up 6 points! Sorry, Marvin but you and your staff got schooled tonight, but don't feel bad. Your players didn't show up for you either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Yep, it wouldn't have been too much trouble to get to the line and hand it to Rudi. The Bengals essentually gave up a timeout so the Colts could have an obvious miscall overturned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalPimp Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I swear, when the second he caught that, I was yelling, hurry up get to the line of scrimmage, run a play. Then when i saw he was holding his mid-section, I thought DAMN, no time, the Colts assistant coaches in the booth are gonna tell them to challenge.

HairOnFire Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 It played out badly, but I have a hard time believing that it had much of an impact on the final score. If anything, the dropped pass was a hint of what we were going to get out of Chad all night long, and Carson too, I guess. Simply put, there were way too many plays that were of the close but no cigar variety....and the play of the offensive line was so bad that nobody had a chance to play through the poor timing.
