Fake Game 2: Chiefs @ Bengals

[HoosierCat]

This week's opportunity to be disappointed by our oline starts at 7!

Here's to no injuries...

[ArmyBengal]

Don't think we are headed down for this one.

Hope to see some improvements.

[TJJackson]

hoping to continue to see solid - not great, but not gawdawful - oline play. and of course, no injuries

When on defense, I will mainly be watching the dline with special focus on the new DEs, especially the kid we picked up from Jacksonville.

Promising first drive...

[rwalling]

and a wasted play and a dumb time out...

[Stripes]

Bengals/Chiefs games are tailor made for placekickers.

[UK Bengal]

I think Dennard is on the bubble if he keeps wiffing on tackles like that

 

[UK Bengal]

no ones fault on that sack they just read the play action

[rwalling]

Dalton is going to lead the league in self defense thrown away passes.

Guess they better start looking at Safety's with Williams going down

Could they already have the answer in Shaw?

[volcom69]

Still would have liked to of seen a 1st string TD at some point, but oh well

[UK Bengal]

looks bad for Williams dislocation of the elbow for sure

Maybe guess will see! That  injury didn't look good. I'm no doctor though so will see what they say.

Internet is already calling it gruesome.  Not good.

[rwalling]

The NFL's Game Day page cannot accurately locate the 43 yeard line.  Sigh.

[rwalling]

Typical KC offense...death by a thousand cuts, or 8 yard dink passes.

[ShulaSteakhouse]

Yeah looked like a dislocated elbow for Williams, cringe-worthy TV shot.   Not sure it's a huge deal for the defense though, like Denard, just not a very good player.

[ShulaSteakhouse]

30-9 Chiefs.  *crickets*

[volcom69]

Yea I stopped watching awhile ago

[volcom69]

After seeing some videos still looks like the young DE are looking good.

Explain to me once again why they didn't trade AJ McCaron he just looks awful. 

[Stripes]

Well that sucked.  Hopefully Williams can heal up, but I won't hold my breath.

[AMPHAR]

Uninspiring effort by the D.  Left many plays on the field.  Not very good on 3rd down.  Bad Tackling again.

Erikson will be a tough cut.   

I thought there was too much pressure on the QB early in the game.

LB coverage is bad.  Minter continues the tradition of hopeful LB FA signings that flop.

All of the QB's were ineffective, as was the entire offense (and defense for that matter).  Haven't seen this much apathy among the fan base since the pre- Marvin era btw (empty, silent stadium, no one here in-town is even talking about them anymore).

How many teams are practically begging people to buy tickets during the preseason broadcasts like the Bengals' do? Don't most of the teams, sans a few (i.e. Cleveland) not have to even worry much about it? Do they invite the guy in-charge of tickets sales into the broadcast booth during the game?  As our beleaguered president would say, "Sad!"

Should try and see if they can trade Hill for a Safety - I think Carson could match his production if needed, at this point.

2nd preseason games are lame, but their back-ups were a lot better than the Bengals' were.

[HoosierCat]

Skipped it. Binged Defenders instead. Not sure it was that much more enjoyable.

Sucks about Williams. Can't sign anyone tho, need to save that cap space for the big Bodine extension!
