It’s because every route is an out, streak or a flat Joe. The Ravens didn’t become the best secondary Overnight. Zac’s plays are just pure shit

It's late enough in the season that they should know how to beat cover 2. KC did it last year after a few weeks, they adjusted. Why can Zac Taylor not do the same? Didn't Collinsworth say last night that he was surprised the Bengals aren't running more slants? He also noted that the Ravens had never played so much 2 high safeties. Clearly, there's a blueprint for stopping the Bengals offense and the league has figured it out.

Yeah it's odd because Chase is really good at YAC, and so he would have the chance to break it on slant routes. Even Boyd is good at them so it's strange that we rarely use them.
It's easy to see the world in black and white. Grey? I don't know what to do with grey.

Interesting tidbit from the commentary last night after one of Burrow's tipped passes "he's used to throwing down the field more and his trajectory is too flat for short/intermediate throws, dlinemen are getting their hands up." Paraphrasing, but did anyone else catch that little nugget?

Run the thing in... the way the run game has been all year, I understand the reluctance, but both Mixon anx Perine were running angry and downhill last night

Paraphrasing, but did anyone else catch that little nugget? I think Collinsworth mentioned it. I wasn't sure what I thought about the comment. Burrow is a pro and it isn't like he only throws deep passes. The comment seemed pertinent to the moment but not perhaps an overall accurate reflection about Burrow's career as a passer.

Completely agree, there is plenty of ways to attack Defenses. Saw open guys last night, Burrow just didn't. Also, the play calling needs to attack with what is working, the running game was working. Stick with it. The Ravens Defense wasn't great last night or anything, we just didn't take advantage of their mistakes and the fact they couldn't stop the run. That is on us, it isn't because the Ravens did anything special.

Another example of head scratching calls by Zac If Mixon and Perine run the rest of the season like they did last night, the answer to cover 2 is just run the ball until they pull their safeties up

Loved seeing the running game finally come together. This is huge.

That was Cris Collinsworth who, following that “little nugget” said he played with the two best quarterbacks in Bengal history thereby implying Joe Burrow isn’t as good as Boomer Esiason or Ken Anderson.

So basically what he's saying is that we need to find another way to beat them (if they play us like that) and we aren't able to as of yet.
Why could that be? Game planning and play-calling aren't putting the players in a position to move the ball forward with a high likelihood of success. Stop being so predictable. How many times were we told the word 'mulitple' on defense the last few years. We wanted to bring in players that are adaptive and can do a lot of different things so you don't know what they're going to do. Well it's worked out on defense. They need to implement the same mentality on offense. The defense shouldn't know whether we are running or passing the ball pre-snap. This is basic football and the best teams keep the defense off balance with their play calling.

What formation did those runs come out of? Answer: shotgun. Averaged almost 6 yards per carry out of shotgun last night. We kept the defense guessing with that formation. Zac just needs to look at the stats to see the writing on the wall. |
