GREAT Use of Eifert Today - Wes Mantooth - 12-18-2016
Way to go, guys. Freakin losers...
RE: GREAT Use of Eifert Today - Millhouse - 12-18-2016
Probably because Pitt's coverage dictated they shouldnt use Eifert as much. Or at least that was their excuse in an earlier loss this year when he was hardly used. Just like the Patriots always going away from Gronk due to coverage schemes and not figuring out ways to get him the ball. *sarcasm*

Was it Eifert who was being thrown at during the int. where Bodine was run blocking.

Nope. Pretty sure Andy was throwing at that defender

Boyd was running a crossing route behind the play. Dalton just under threw it by about 7 yards.

Chimpzampese is clueless.

20 points in the first half; barely 20 yards in the second half.
The Marv way.

Bodine run blocking on a pass play. One if the dumbest plays I've ever seen. Ever
RE: GREAT Use of Eifert Today - THE PISTONS - 12-18-2016
They appeared to use Eifert to pass block like a 5th lineman.
As someone who started Eifert in his fantasy playoff game today...I'm not a happy camper.

Dalton threw it at Bodine because he didn't think his OL would run downfield to block on a passing play. Dalton doesn't read jersey numbers before throwing. Bengals helmet? Throw.

I did see a Steelers player make an illegal hit on Eiffert after one catch. He lowered helmet to drive it into Eifferts head. Maybe Tyler wasn't up to making anymore catches after that, although that was already the 3rd quarter I think.

I remember that. Juxtaposing that play with what Pat Sims got a flag for is pretty baffling in hindsight.

No doubt the NFL favors certain teams with penalty calls.

Same here. Big. Fat. Goose egg.
RE: GREAT Use of Eifert Today - hoosierbengal - 12-18-2016
Question about Eifert. Does it make sense to have him pass blocking on 3rd down & 8? They had him in the backfield on a particular 3rd down & 8 and he totally whiffed on his block. I was thinking they were doing the Steelers a huge favor by keeping him in the backfield on 3rd and fairly long. I have seen him lined up like that numerous times and he isn't the best blocker but he does the job sometimes. I just think he should be running a route in that situation. That is what he does best is catch passes. I guess he has to block sometimes but I want him doing what he is best at especially on 3rd down. Would the Patriots put Gronk in the backfield to pass block on 3rd & 8?
RE: GREAT Use of Eifert Today - Stonyhands - 12-19-2016
Zampese is about as lame as you can get. We get down to the goal line and it's first down...keep in mind we got down there by a good dose of successful runs, so 1st down we run and nothing, 2nd down we line up and run and Hill is tackled in the backfield by a safety and linebacker. I mean seriously at that point a play action would have been wide open. 3rd down we throw an incomplete pass to the RB at the line of scrimmage. It just baffles me that a guy like this coaches at the highest level yet he can't ever seem to give our offense any sort of advantage with his play calling. The offense was pathetic in the second half.

Bodine is turned around looking at Dalton on every pass play. Dalton should know by now not to throw to him.

I wish somebody would have planted that seed in marvins pea brain.
RE: GREAT Use of Eifert Today - SHRacerX - 12-19-2016
As a team, the Bengals lacked talent at TE position for ages...
Now, I believe they have three TEs (four, if you count Hewitt) that would be doing very well on any other team, but it is like the Bengals have no clue what to do with them?
FWIW, I really would have liked to see Hue coach this team with the talent they have at TE.
