***Week 11 GameDay Thread - Bengals @ Raiders***

[Clark W Griswold]

Well maybe LV giving us that gift will help these idiots get some confidence.
Reiff looks like trash out there.

[Joelist]

Well, two clear PFs and an offsides by the Raiders helped. That said they also missed the DB facemark Chase in the end zone. Fortunately we still got the TD. Now we need the DL to start to play up to their paychecks.

Raiders are selling out on every run. A pitch back to Mixon and then he passes to wide open receiver down field. It will work, need to take the pass rush on the offensive line.

Yeah, they're certainly not bad. They aren't good, either. They're in the same category as Cincinnati - a middling, inconsistent team.

Yeah but even when he has open field he gets 3 yards. He just bulldozes. I can't ask him to be Chubb, nobody can lol. It just shows he's 2nd tier.

He'd do better with a FB I think, no clue.

We have to fix 3rd and 1/2s if we ever want to win a playoff game or even make the playoffs. Won't happen this year (fixing it).

I guess I'm thinking more in the context of them spending nearly a decade with Derek Carr and being amazed they are a game over .500...for now.  

At any rate, they look like a 5-12 team at the moment.

Until you realize the BEngals are also 5-4 and then it's HORRIBLE!!!

Need a Turnover

[NUGDUKWE]

Now the D needs to get the ball back so we can chuck it deep to Chase.

[Joelist]

Oh,and on both Mixon negative run plays all he had to do was cut back left right away and he had a lane.

[Housh]

My god what a catch by Waller. If he drops that were picking that

Yeah, it isn't all Mixon's fault but he isn't a top RB in the league. Taylor and Chubb are just electric backs. Ekeler is also a great all-around back. Mixon is a stud receiver, I've mentioned I would love to see him get the ball more in the receiving game, I think it would help. 

[grampahol]

Well I'll be..Had the game on in the background and just checked in time to see em score.. Back to gin rummy..

[Joelist]

So much for the DL earning its pay...

Yeah I was thinking pick there

[Destro]

All the Mixon hate is too bizarre. The O-line play influences him, too. Yet I believe he has been a top 5 back all season? With the air offense we are( ), he still performs

[Bengalitis]

finally winning.. been a while since we last had a lead.
