First and foremost, Ced has not taken the field, and we are seeing the result of it. He's just not RT material.
Secondly, and this is my personal opinion, too often guys get complacent and think AJ will make a play, or Gio will give a spark. With neither of them available, each guy is having to truly dig deep and know that he must make a play himself for the team to be successful.
Third, without AJ and Gio, Tyler is being doubled routinely. This is forcing Andy and the new pieces to become more in sync with one another.
I've read a time or two that if a QB spreads the ball around early, he almost always has a reliable receiver to go to, in a pinch.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

If I recall, almost all of Nugent's misses on XP's have come when the ball is on the left hash, and he has to push it right.
That's where Nuge prefers it. I recall him stating that he moved to the left hash because of the misses to the right and it hasn't helped, so I guess he decided to go back to center.

That is why LeBron passes the bawl.

Exactly. It's a gotdamned shame we waited until this deep in the season to flush that turd.

Hill rushes for 0.
15 rushes for 22 yards, who wants this RB on their team?

Hmmm..INT and possibly 33-zip? T'would be nice if Marvin let them put their cleats on Philly and run the score up to something like 60-zip, but you know that ain't happening..

Burkhead to 20, but flag on Philly Defense. 1st down Bengals.
Stop ***** feeding Hill. He's done. Use him only in redzone.

Do you have ANY concept of the purpose of the Oline? There is NO blocking on these running plays. Seriously, open your eyes instead of repeating your complaints about Hill over and over and over and over again.

Winston gets smartest play of the day today.
He was pointing to the open, eligible man. When Andy then threw to him, he fought the urge to catch it and allowed it to go incomplete.

They get it right every call which is rare those times.
You can only be bothered by your own thoughts. You can only be p*ssed about your own life.
