Dalton can't throw into triple coverage.
AJ can't miss simple catches that lead to a pick 6
Hill can't fumble the rock
Gio does not look like Gio and is starting to worry me
Burkhead showed nothing last night
Jones is not back to 100% (mentally and football shape)
Peko struggled while Still showed a little improvement
Geno looked great at times and non existant (2014 Geno) at times
Dunlap needs to finish better
Hunt showed some positive flashes
Where was Clarke last night?
All of our DB's and safeties played like crap, they were very disappointing
Carter continues to make plays and has a shot
Little looks like an NFL WR, Moore does not
AJ McCarron's arm strength was not good and a concern, I saw no zip and long throws were lame ducks
Dawson looked good at times, I would like to see him with the first team
V. Rey and Lamur both looked like crap
Hawk did not impress

It is what it is, just a pre-season game, but the coaching staff had a lot of teaching points from this poor effort. The Bengals looked like a 3 win team versus a 10 or 11 team win. We made a lousy Bucs team look like a Super Bow contender.

Good summation!  It did look like Carter and Dawson were both actually trying to make the team and do what they could.

My biggest concern is in your last paragraph.  I just don't have much faith in the coaching staff taking anything from this game and correcting most of the problems.  I'm sure some will be corrected, but I just don't know if enough of them will be.  I certainly hope so and I guess time will tell.
