The lack of pride displayed by the 1st team last night while having their @$$e$ handed to them was unacceptable. They seemed very disconnected in all phases of the game. Not a performance of a playoff bound team to say the least.

if you realize that this is preseason , as you sy you do, then quit worrying

I don't know man, you seem to be of the minority opinion in this thread..


By "working order", I mean at least looking like they are operating out of the same playbook as the rest of the offense.  And no one is "creating rumors" about Jackson.  I am merely suggesting that there could possibly be some disconnect between he and the position coaches.

I can assure you that jackson and his coaches are on the same page. The team stunk it up in a meaningless preseason game..nothing more

Hue isn't going to show the whole playbook in a meaningless game. The result is a pretty vanilla offense. I expect this offense to be rolling week 1 against the Raiders.

You know you're doing a terrible job at bashing me when my arch-nemesis of the boards owns you for attacking me. I bet your parents are so proud.

You've clearly proven that you don't know shit about the Bengals in this thread, and you clearly get way too worked up about stuff that you aren't even knowledgeable about. I'd probably bow out of this before it gets much worse.

Actually my parents and the rest of my family and friends are very proud of me because I am self made and a very good human being.
As for the Bengals and many other sports I am very knowledgeable hence my nickname of Coach, which was given to me not by myself but by my peers. When they are interested in placing a sports bet that they are unsure of they tend to contact me and ask for my input.
The only thing that I bow to is my respected elders and gracious fans. Now you go and have a terrific day Mr.Wonderful Career.
Bengals line,O,D,HC, and O cord all blew in that game.

Hill had a few fumbles last year, but it was his rookie season. A lot of great running backs had that problem early in their career and then it fixed (Peterson had 19 fumbles his first 3 years). We have had bad games in the past and this was just another one. The thing about this one though is there was no game plan, there was nothing but vanilla play calling across the board. It also didn't mean anything, not for a playoff spot, not even for really evaluating our 1s, because we weren't really scheming against the Buccaneers. The buccaneers wanted a home win very bad, because the last time they had a home win was in 2013 (including preseason).

FWIW only people who don't know how Daltons contract works says he's overpaid.
