***Week 1 GameDay Thread - Vikings @ Bengals***

[Tony]

Great coaching Zack.. That was ********..

[2slick]

I will admit, I liked the aggressiveness, but it sure but us in the ass

[Joelist]

They need luck to win now. The D looked like amateurs there and Taylor's bonehead play calling just gifted the Vikings.

He should coach not to lose...folks around here absolutely love that...apparently...

The problem was not going for it on 4th down, the problem was Lou and D not stopping the Vikins on 4th down, mind you, give them a TD on top of that. I back Zac on this one (eventhough I dont like him much)

What? Those are currently the best afc teams other than the chiefs

Also the packers run the ball a lot

14 point lead who goes for it in that spot

[The D.O.Z.]

Need a nice long scoring drive here. Gotta get points!

[Clark W Griswold]

I like being aggressive but the situation called for a punt. You’re up 2 TDs so make them use some time and work for it. That let them right back in the game.

[RunKijanaRun]

I can’t get over how dumb that was.

Marvin used to punt on 4th and 1 from past his 50 all the time

Huber is still a weapon who could've pinned them deep.  That would have given us breathing room to force their offense into a mistake.

Zac can make up for it calling a good series here. Lets go score a TD.

Sorry but no up 14 end of the 3rd with your defensive playing lights out you dont go for it on 4th down in your own 30. Now that play call by the defense was bad too.

Theilen was awaken.

WHATS WRONG WITH HIGGINS????

It'd be a lot more understandable if the team had a mauling gap run scheme and a RB like Lynch or Chubb.

it just did!  we had the momentum, D playing well and he pulls a bonehead move like that!??  If this goes down as a L, HE NEEDS TO BE FIRED ASAP. NO EXCUSES FOR DUMB CALLS LIKE THIS.

Zac "fourth and inches shotgun QB draw" Taylor

I admire the aggression going for it, I didn't really like the play call but it was more an unfortunate stumble that killed it. The defense did well but it's a tall order to stop an offense 4 times in a row and then giving up the touchdown was due to the situation.

Overall, I understand the decisions made. Hopefully we rebound and get our double digit lead back here.

That was punt area, especially winning. Huber booms it. Defense has more field and Burrow gets the ball back. This was an all but 3 and they made it 7.
