Any explanation why stupid Zac can't call uptempo earlier
In the game?. Stupid HC never should have challenged that Catch by Evans earlier . We would have had a TO on
That last sorry drive

Lou A. needs a stop post half

Yall gotta chill. Each week, crazier comebacks occur. I'm assuming TB was just slicin n dicing our D for that entire first half. Tom won't let off the gas. D should be able to adjust. Bend don't break style.

It's the NFL; anyone can beat anyone at any given time.

Not sure anybody needs it or certainly doesn't like it but it does happen to teams. Dallas has a 21-point lead today and loses a game to jacksonville. Bears could have certainly beaten the eagles. KC got lucky as hell to beat houston.

Bengals have won 9 out of their last 11 games and one of those games in Baltimore they probably should have won if ZTaylor didn't get cute. It's just really no way to sustain this and what you're seeing Philadelphia do this year is certainly not the norm.

He shouldve gotten out of bounds. We possibly have one more play if he gets out. I dont think he knew teh time left

Yup, instead of trying to step back toward the hashes, get to the sideline.

Wondering if something is up with Mixon.  I don't think I've seen him since the opening drive.

2 score game we know we are good at making adjustments at half time surely we can’t come out that bad to start the second half?

Those 3 points could be big at least we got the ball moving at the end.

That awesome challenge that cost a timeout comes back to bite them and stupid decisions by. Hero’s and Perine.
When did they burn the other 2 timeouts?

This is a terrible take.  

The ball was actually out on that challenge could have gone to us.

The drive went fine, we got points.

You dont know about the other 2 TOs yet you are complaining? 

Sounds right.

Joe should have threw the Perine pass away. Or take a shot at the endzone, hope for a PI.

We had no timeouts and I think they gave us middle of the field knowing that, dunno.

Still concerning we have no run game, today. Those 3rd and 4th and short that killed us in the superbowl last year because we have to pass seems like they'll happen again. Now we're down so the run game will be abandoned most likely. The defense has to start stopping Brady or we have no chance.

Needed that drive to get a FG. At least 17 to 3

15 passes, 4 runs, 1 interception, 2 sacks, 3 punts, but at least a FG.

Bengals are a good 2nd Half team, as per all the play-off wins and even the Super Bowl. So bounce back in the 2nd Half.

Second half will look different.

Haha   hope youre right

Getting on the board and turning it from a 3 score to a 2 score game is big.

Neither feels good, but one feels much much less bad than the other.

Can this defense stop Brady at this point? Doesn't look like it. Slant Slant Slant, Evans wide open nearly every down

Both of them.

That’s why i was so conservative in the prediction thread


Brady is still Brady

At least it's an NFC loss.. silver lining.. even though the rest of the afc north crushed Brady

Just had a weird feeling about this game. Brady over the hill, can't throw long, isn't accurate anymore. Injuries sure don't help but the Bucs have as many out and seem to be clicking just fine. Why do the Bengals go into this mode when it really counts?

Hubbard is out with a calf injury (might have had a sore back prior?).

Don't think I have really seen Mixon since the first drive, but not sure if that is injury related.

Definitely gonna have to blitz more than we did last half


There’s just no avenue to stop Brady with NO pressure

Hopefully that leads to a pick 6.
