skyline Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 I haven't seen this mentioned very much, so I wanted to bring it up.Kyle Larson running it into the endzone is one of the best things I've seen from the Bengals in a long time...it may only be one play, but I think it shows a lot about where this team is headed. We actually have the confidence on offense to try something like that, and it's good to see. For the longest time, all I could remember for the Bengals as far as trick plays go was a few years ago in TN when Corey Dillon threw the ball into the endzone for an interception. Usually, after we tried a rare trick play (and botched it) everyone would shake their heads and say "WHAT were they thinking???". Now, however, things are looking a bit different.Anyway, seeing that highlight got me pretty excited. We have a coach that's bold enough to try something like that, and a team capable of pulling it off. :player: Quote
jjakq27 Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 Yep great call. THey had nothing to lose at that point. I hope they play that way the rest of the year. Get all of the tricks out of the bag. Quote
Kirkendall Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 Awesome play. But to answer your question why no one is really talking about it is because it didn't really make a difference. Another hindsight answer. Quote
The_Next_Big_Thing Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 They showed it on ESPN News while I was at lunch. No audio, so I have no idea what was said. They did, however, make fun of Eli! Quote
HoosierCat Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 Props to STs for stopping the Pats' fake punt, too. Quote
