People do not believe me or care what I say. I try to tell people in my group this ,and barely get anybody agreeing,the certain eternal optimist or Dalton lovers disagree of course. But the Bengals problem is with the top 3 deep seeded issues- owner ,coach , qb. We don't have a top qb to overcome Marvin Lewis short comings ,and we don't have the right coaching staff to over come Andy Daltons short comings.
We also do not have leadership ,we got a coach who looks lost and has been proved to not know what he's doing. It's been said today by lazor he doesn't control personnel. Finally the cats out the bag on that one ty lazor. We don't have leadership in Dalton,he smiles at the end of getting our ass whooped. He trys to stay calm looking as possible,but his actions speak otherwise. His throws are off a lot causing ints last week,and even in wins we have had he's had lucky breaks not getting picked . He's a average qb and that's being nice. He can't even be a game manager with his turnovers. Talent wise the dude is average no matter how much Dalton lovers say he's good and not his fault at all. He sounds and looks like a robot ,with no real passion of winning. Just like coach Lewis.
Don't be mistaken,I know the o line isn't good,it's not all on Dalton I understand. Mike Brown and Marvin make no moves or dumb moves in free agency. First move we make we bring back Brandon lafell to get all the time at #2. Nobody is scared of Brandon Lafell. We don't use Boyd at all they probably regret drafting the guy they just don't want to involve him much in the offense . Marvin Lewis could ATLEAST replace center Bodine, it would help some to be better up the middle and not one of the worst centers in the league . Anybody would probably be a upgrade, Max Tuerk is out there,or even tj Johnson. Somebody! Coaching staff and ownership are always complacent until we are already out just like last year. I'm surprised they put Malone in for a couple snaps. And he got 1 target double covered with a bad high throw.
So knowing we have a coaching and qb problem , it's just sad because I know these problems will resurface again down the line,you'd be a sucker if you thought they wouldn't. Sunday will tell me what the rest of the season will be, not if we win. But how we win. Are they going to use this as practice to get John Ross into the offense,is he going to have a good game or get injured? Will they get Malone more involved. Will they give mixon a lot more carries that he deserves. Right now he's the 2nd best offensive player we have in my eyes. You got to get green and mixon the ball. And you got to have other contributors. I doubt they will experiment with the line which they should. But if they at least do them things,I think we could get to the playoffs and maybe win against someone not named Pitt or patriots .
It just saddens me I pretty much know the deep problems will surface again. This team will depress you out. It's like an abusive marriage ,where they promise to be better but still make you feel bad about yourself. I'm at the point I might pick up a 2nd team like the eagles. And maybe become a Cavs fan. I need some college teams also. Because we might never see this team be elite . I'm also a big believer in the team's with most fans go far. I feel the NFL and sports in general is rigged for big fan base teams. My prediction is Steelers win the Superbowl with big Ben about done and Rooney passing away.
Ps maybe we can hire Bruce Arians, he's a offensive mind,and this is a offensive league,maybe he can bring Larry Fitzgerald with him.
