I think that a better way to put it is that even the most talented players on this team fall apart at crunch time. A dropped pass by AJ or a late hit from Atkins, it’s a cultural thing.
Iloka is more soft. Mentally soft. Gave up two plays on the football to seek big hits. Either one could have won the game. Unacceptable.

But Andy's horrible play for most of the year and you excuse it away? GTFO of here.
I don't excuse anything.

Saying it twice isn't going to make it true.

Wow. Not a single thing you said is true. Do me a favor, don't talk about me if it's going to be nothing but lies. Ok? Thanks.

We average 14.2 points in the 1st half (which is excellent) since his promotion, but only 6.8 points in the 2nd half (which is awful).
Fun fact, in the last 28 games, the Bengals have averaged 7.3 points in the second half, and 3.8 in the fourth quarter.

Wowzers. So this has been going on for awhile.

This is Marvin ball.
He gets a lead then tucks his tail, foot off the gas.

Agreed!!
I am just really over the NFL definition of a catch. It's not on the ground, it's not in the other team's possession, it's in Green's hands, but because of the WAY it's in his hand it's not a catch.
I call BS on the league for that definition. But with regard to this game Brown should have been awarded the touchdown if the league observes my definition of a catch and a touchdown.

Especially the first one. The ball was right there. He didn't even look at it.
That's just stupid, stupid, stupid.
My kids object to my behavior during the games (I mean they have a point) but I do OK until our players or coaches just start going stupid on us.
And though you can say every player is responsible for their decisions (they are) there is no way a db on a Belichick team sits there and watches a player run by him untouched on the sideline. Jackson didn't have to hit the guy, just literally give him a tiny push to redirect him out of bounds.

I love how you keep trying to highlight a "poorly underthrown ball" when it was 50 yards, with his feet not set, in the rain, while watt was in his face after the "hold". You're just showing you're nothing but a hater.
If only there was another first round WR on the roster to take focus off AJ Green and also open up some underneath routes so that AJ Green doesn't have to do everything himself...oh wait....

The one that straight up bounced off his shoulder because he was going after the receiver rather than looking at the ball did irritate me.

Was the ball thrown to the WR, farther than the WR, or not as far of the WR? It was thrown not as far, meaning under thrown. He had to come to a complete stop, meaning it wasn't slightly under thrown it was poorly under thrown. Conditions or not that's what the outcome of the throw was, AJ went and salvaged it. Using the term "hater" is such a cliche anymore that it is comical, that was just the reality of the throw. I was actually happy with the play of Dalton most the night, but that ball easily could have been picked in which case we are sitting around saying he never should have let it go and ate the sack.

You know you're a hater when ...
... you criticize the QB for COMPLETING A PASS.
