There will be no accountability that that was horrible coaching for an NFL coaching staff.
Who in our reporting staff will ask the question? They're all buddy buddy with giggles. Ask the tough questions, ask why they think they're qualified to be head coach when they do stuff like that. lol

It's like jekyll and Hyde with this team. Offense shows up, next possession defense ***** things up.

at least 5 plays of no calls that would've gone against the cardinals. bengals did some stupid shit, but this officiating was complete garbage.

LOL...a couple of REALLY stupid plays are the difference between the elite teams and the OK teams. A couple of really stupid plays have cost teams Super Bowl Championships. A couple of really stupid plays are the difference between 9-1 with a 3 game lead over Pitt and momentum, and an 8-2 record with a two game lead over Pitt with two losses in a row. You damn right I'm going to focus on a couple of really stupid plays. If you want to settle for continual mediocrity then you can accept those couple of really stupid plays with a grin just like Marvin will.

Yeah the press conferences are a joke with Lap generally asking Marv how he got to be so awesome 5 different times.

I, for one, am terrified that they lost on a last second field goal at Arizona.

All I can say is "At least I'm a Panthers fan too." bengals always have been and always will be #1, but it's always good to have a second favorite winning like the Panthers are.

I agree, lap tries too hard to be friends. Do your job, Christ, this message board has all the tough questions. We should be allowed to have fan participation, we get to ask 3 questions a game as a group via a poll, lol.

They could have still hit a 45 yarder.

I don't really take too much solace--none actually--that they had a chance to get in the endzone at the end and they ended up losing again.
Close or not, regardless of who they played, too many mistakes and dumb penalties in a game that should have ended with a W.

Meh, it was a close game, it was against an NFC team, and a good one at that. Meh we win the division and start worrying about the playoffs. Other than the Carson vs. Marvin and Mike narrative this was a game we could afford to lose.

Yep. The 'almosts' are way old by now.

Except that with the clock running there would be a 10 second run off which ends the 4th. Marvin Lewis just said that Peko said he was alerting the rest of the D for a run play and that was it. Nothing to throw off the offense.

If Lap asks enough tough questions, he'll be replaced. Brad got canned from the radio job just for asking about the length of Marvin's extension.

There is no such thing as a "game we could afford to lose". The really good teams treat EVERY game as if their existence depends on winning it. That is why they don't let down and make stupid mistakes at critical junctures.
