They would throw it all over the yard up by a bunch with three minutes to play. Teams could not stop them and it allowed them total control of the ball. If the Bengals can do that, they have my blessing. Just protect Joe. Yup. Also, I take my cues from the QB king… Quote
ShulaSteakhouse Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 If I read Harbaugh's lips after the game when he shook Taylor's hand, he said "why'd you have to beat me like that?" He didn't laugh, just seemed miffed, and it's hard to tell if he was joking. He truly is one of the biggest cry baby coaches there is, it's fun beating his teams as a result. I wonder if he had issues with that last drive, calling passing plays. I'm guessing he was upset. Quote

Harbaugh reallly just likes to whine, a LOT, it rubs off on his staff I'm guessing. Quote
HoosierCat Posted December 27, 2021 Author Report Posted December 27, 2021 If Harbaugh wants to play Jerry Glanville to Zac’s Sam Wyche, who am I to complain? 1 Quote
ArmyBengal Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 I for one am fucking pumped up to hear that Martindale’s stupid comments pissed them off. Just reading that shit infuriated the hell out of me. I don’t care if they left Burrow in too long, don’t care. It was a big middle finger to the Ravens. We are all in their heads. Fuck you Ravens !!

ShulaSteakhouse Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 Poor Ref at the end got a dinger with a slow reaction. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 I think it was Mem that made the comment during the game that he still can’t believe we have a QB like Burrow. It made me think back when AJ Green was in the pro bowl and Andrew Luck was the starting QB for the AFC. Dude was throwing laser beams and hit AJ for a TD. Definition of throwing a dime. I VIVIDLY recall thinking: “It sure would be nice to have a QB like that”. Now we do. Thank you God !! Quote
AMPHAR Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 That Boyd TD…..ZT on another level. Seriously! Like they threw it to him and there was no one there to tackle him. Like no one. This happens often. Quote
AMPHAR Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 Congrats to ZT on Winning season. Quote

Right now he is an elite NFL QB technically, finishing no lower than 6th in all the major cat's I believe, and 2nd in QBR. Tied for the most INT's, but also has been sacked the most, with only TENN having anywhere near as many sacks against. Have to figure with better protection, he's a top 5 guy annually if they play their cards right, and don't get him killed. https://www.foxsports.com/nfl/stats?category=passing&season=2021&sortOrder=desc Quote
Wraith Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 Provided they resign Uzomah (and they should) they really have no offensive need other than oline Quote

Tate- UFA Thomas- UFA Irwin- ERFA Morgan- RFA If they like what they have, it shouldn’t be hard to bring those guys back. If not, there’s an opportunity to improve depth. Outside of that, yeah, give me O-linemen. 1 Quote
COB Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 Regarding running up the score, and passing in that last series: Willie tweeted that the Ravens zero blitzed us 8 times last year while up 27-0. two points: first, they had it coming today due to that zero blitzing last year. Second - the Ravens were up 27-0 last year, now look what happened in one off season. We swept them this year and neither game was close. Biggest one season improvement I can remember. 1 Quote
Stripes Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 Bengals beat the Ravens and Steelers four times by a combined score of 147-58. 1 Quote

The whole narrative is borked. Let’s review: the first play of Q4 was a Baltimore TD that made it a 13 point game. Anyone here feel like a 13 point fourth quarter Bengals lead is safe? Yeah, that’s what I thought. So the Bengals go on a nice five minute drive consisting of eight straight passes that ends with a Higgins TD. That puts the lead back to 20 with 10 minutes left. From there, the “running up the score” Bengals would score…0 points. As to throwing the ball until the very end, hey, it was working. As I mentioned during elsewhere, how many times have we watched OCs inexplicably stop doing what working because ha ha, I am a genius, they’ll never expect that! If Balti wanted us to stop passing, all they had to do was…stop the pass. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted December 27, 2021 Report Posted December 27, 2021 It would have been interesting to see how the Cowboys game would have turned out had they not pulled Prescott early in the 3rd quarter. That being said, Burrow all day... 1 Quote
