For the record Lazor gets my vote.

I blamed Dalton plenty. 

Now isn't the time. 

He didn't do much, if anything bad. Wrong!? Maybe. He gave us two opportunities to win. Bullock missed. Core dropped a wide open pass. 

Some of you are equally incapable of admitting otherwise... Even with fact hitting you dead in the chest. 

By the way, Baltimore is ranked one on defense. Two in passing.

You just know Jackson hits Uzo on that 3rd down play. I don’t know where the Dalton who was throwing so well on the move earlier in the season has gone.

Yep, I saw him miss some for sure...but that was on the money. He threw some good balls too....got the ball out quickly against the blitz....no run game, no AJ, and defense making some scrub out of RUTGERS and a rookie look like Earl Campbell and Walter Payton were our biggest issues today.

It was close, tight coverage, on the move avoiding pressure. Maybe someone other that Uzo gets his feet down.  

Pig Shit plays like shit all day long and yet, somehow, the Stoolers holds Jax and comes back to win. We don't do those things

Now, some of the problems can possibly be worked out during the rest of the season, but not much will improve until we get several better players. Especially linebackers and offensive tackles and guards.

Nailed it.

Nah.  Hue likes RBs.

**** this team.

Carson didn't have that freedom either. I wish Dalton would just assert himself, but he's a company guy just like Carson was...until Carson asked for a trade. At this point, I wish Dalton would too. He deserves a better coach and a fan base that might actually appreciate him.

Dalton had a good game considering the circumstances. 2 TDs, 0 turnovers, 89.0 passer rating, led team in rushing.

We gave up 268 yards rushing and 23 first downs.
Mixon/Gio combined for 19 yards on 14 carries. 

When you have multiple injuries to top receivers (Green, Eifert, Kroft) and your run game gets stuffed, you're being unreasonable to expect a better game than Dalton just had. He gave us a fighting chance despite it all.

I'm relieved it's over. This team could easily be 0-10. No dominant wins.

I wouldn’t buy Marvin Lewis or Bill Lazor a plane ticket home.

Yeah they totally messed up their website.  It takes a long time to load and the game stats are harder to read.  I liked the old side by side comparison.

(11-18-2018, 06:13 PM)Nicomo Cosca Wrote: Definitely on Core, but if Andy hits Uzo the play before it doesn’t matter. He was mediocre today. Some good throws, but too many bad.

The best play of the game was the play that never happened. Think it was just before half when in the red zone our veteran leader Dalton waves Mixon back inside when there is no defensive player even on that side of the field. That's just priceless. I would like to see any other 8 year starting QB top that. Way to read that Defense Andy...

He led the team in rushing? That's pathetic.

I would've fired the whole staff after the Chiefs debacle and again after the Saints debacle. 

What a clown show. Marv sliding over to DC and letting Hue audition for his next gig. Smh what a mess.

Yep.

Dalton - 2 carries for 29 yards
Gio/Mixon - 14 carries for 19 yards

Just blow it up. Start over. This isn’t working.

Hey, Fan in K.!

Don't see you around as much, it seems!

Don't understand how much of a difference Mixon would have made on that final play considering he and Bernard did nothing the whole game. Where is all the Mixon/Bernard sucks post. I think Mixon is the most over hyped player we've had for some time now. The guy has done nothing but for some reason he's already "Great" just don't get it.

Oh, I’m here but I’m too disgusted to make as many comments as usual. I was totally and completely wrong about Marvin Lewis taking over the defense. I truly thought it would work but it failed spectacularly.

I hear ya. We are waist deep in the depths of mediocrity this season with no hope in sight, IMO.

I haven’t thought they’re a playoff team all year. My comment was to all those who’ve been thinking they are.

Mixon was a top 5 RB in the league coming into today...
