Stripes Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 I think the probabilities are meaningless anyway, because it’s just frequentist and not causal. Most 3-3 teams are less talented than this one, and they probably aren’t tied atop their divisions either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, if I’m Mike Brown, my response is, so what am I paying you $3 million a year for? If your whole strategy is, Joe will save us, why don’t I take your salary and put it toward his giant second contract? Tell me what, exactly, YOU bring to the table, Zac? I freely admit that’s unfair, Zac clearly has a solid grip on the locker room and the players love him, he is not without value. But it highlights his limitations. Imagine Joe with a Bill Walsh or a Sam Wyche or a Bill Belicheck etc. to raise him up. This team would steamroller the league for a decade. As it is we are struggling to stay at .500. Reading too much into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Bill Walsh and Bill Belichick relied on some particularly legendary quarterbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMPHAR Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Jimmys and Joes are always more important than x and o. That said the offense has struggled below expectation. Good to see them put up a 30 burger. Defense not giving up a 2nd half TD steak is kinda crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 I dont see anyone mentioning Dax and that final 4th down play this should be getting mentions if he did indeed make that final play.....he did, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason did not notice him doing anything on that play - will have to re-watch highlights. I was wondering why he isn't seeing more and more playing time, you have to find snaps for a guy that talented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Ah ok for some reason thought that was Bates but it was Hill who provided the Safety coverage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leD4D30oxCY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMPHAR Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 Bad punt return fumble and stupid roughing passer call allowed Saints to stay with their running game. Otherwise it might have been a 10+ point win by Bengals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 I thought the Dolphins game was going to be the springboard moving forward, but it may have been a couple weeks too early. Fast forward to yesterday's game and maybe this is the pivotal game for this team. I watched Burrow's post game Q&A and feel like he doesn't see things much different than they've ever been and acknowledged having to take the underneath stuff, which opened up the Chase TD. I liked not only what I heard, but how he said it. I know he's a confident dude, but there was some comfort hearing him talk about the team. My only thing is what appears to be a disconnect from what he said and what we see each first half of games. They need to find a way to get moving quicker. When the schedule toughens up, holding some of those offenses to FG's instead of TD's when they get in the redzone is going to be harder to accomplish.

ArmyBengal Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 It was a hell of an athletic play on Hill's part. An INT right there would have been the icing on the cake. It not being an INT probably explains why no one is really talking about a pass break up. That being said, Hill ran approximately 70 feet from the time the ball was thrown to the WR and still broke it up. Like I said, athletic as hell. Hope he gets more chances to make plays because I think the guy is going to be good when he gets his shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 *shrug* as the literal final nail in the coffin, it should be getting talked about in the local media at minimum.....and instead, no one is talking about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 I think it’s more that the receiver was already falling down and the ball was unlikely to be caught regardless of Dax. That’s not to take away from him. Nice play, rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted October 19, 2022 Report Share Posted October 19, 2022 I hadn't realized how Chase to just blew by the second defender on the 60 yarder. Was that Mathieu ?? Whomever it was, Chase made them look foolish. Also, Chase was apparently pretty happy with Zac's game plan for the day huh ?? Thanks for posting Mem !!
