Bengals @ Jaguars Gameday Thread

[TJJackson]

dammit Tate!!!!!!!!

[TJJackson]

Lap noted good bull rush by Margus on a deflected pass play, got right into the QBs grill

[kingwilly]

Peerman broken arm... 

[HoosierCat]

Scrubs getting rolled.

[ShulaSteakhouse]

This scrub 0-line the Bengals' are running out there are terrible.  Get McCarron out of there please.

[HoosierCat]

 

[HoosierCat]

So, about that deep thing...

[TJJackson]

Erickson good KR to the 29

 

I think that was his first KR

[Stripes]

Erickson GOAT

[TJJackson]

Our 3rd string RT doesnt appear to even be moving at the snap

[Stripes]

Every punt return.  Damn.

[HoosierCat]

Can. Not. Cut.

[Stripes]

Yikes.

[HoosierCat]

Joe Licata: not making the team.

[ShulaSteakhouse]

Extremely poor showing from the bubble/sure-to-be-cut fellas in the 2nd half, except for Erickson.  That o-line looks completely lost.

They pretty much are. Per Lap the guy at C has never played there before. Basically too many injuries, they're down to five guys from the stands.

[Stripes]

Wenning and Licata are both brutal.

[TJJackson]

Looking forward to the waiver wire pickup(s) on OL, especially for a C

[TJJackson]

I had heard that they had worked with Westerman at C some, so I am surprised they didn't use him there in this circumstance

After McCarron the drop off gets steep.

[TJJackson]

As bad as the 2nd and 3rd string OL was, I don't think you can really say it was purely Licata and/or Wenning sucking

I mean, it looked like GuyChick all over again, over and over again

[ArmyBengal]

How do they cut Erickson ??  Simply no way you get rid of a guy like that.
I don't know why they needed confirmation of Peerman's injury, you could see the arm break in the replay.  Brutal.
Speaking of brutal, any QB not named Dalton or McCarron.

VERY happy with the starters.  They just need to stay healthy.
Can we get a high school team to play against Indy this Thursday ??

[Stripes]

I think they'd have to be idiots to cut Erickson or Core at this point.  It's probably Wright versus Tate for the last spot.  I still think Tate has the edge there.

[HoosierCat]

Yeah, not a lot to witch about re the first stringers, with the usual caveats that it's preseason, it's the Jags, etc.

Erickson has made the roster. Who else on the bubble has done bupkis other than him? Wright, Alford and Kumerow have all been no-shows for the most part. Wright still has PS eligibility, don't know about the other two. But at this point it's Green, Boyd, Core, LaFell, Erickson and I guess Tate, just because of experience.

 

[ArmyBengal]

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me to see Wright make it due to special teams contribution and Peerman going down may impact that decision.
Then again, the 6th WR is usually inactive, so I can't really say as I could call that last spot.
Erickson has been a stud.  Talk about taking advantage of opportunities.  No all-star type games at seasons end, no combine invite, and kills it.
