Yeah they gotta contain the qb better and do a bit better in coverage there. But these are backups. They actually had a lot of people out there on D that will make the team.
I’m not too concerned. This doesn’t really have any bearing on the regular season. It’s hard to know what to expect yet. It’s good to see a lot of the Bengals seem really confident and expect to win a lot this year. Hopefully that comes to fruition.
I would have liked to see them kick the field goal at the end there as that’s what you would do in the regular season to force OT. But they went for the win. It’s preseason. I think they got all the evaluation in that they needed.
I get what you're saying, but these guys are still professionals (at least they were last night) plus there is only a limited amount of space to catch a ball on the side of the end zone. It's not like the guy just outran them for the hail mary. The DB was an inch away from deflecting it too....o win the game....then the luck of the Bungles rears its ugly head
