If this seriously doesn’t get Dalton benched I really don’t know what will.

Like I said

[*Nately120*]

Crappy Lafell doubles our offensive output in a single play. Bench him!

[matmaven]

Damned refs. They're going to cost us this game!

[Atomic Orange]

All of these calls against the Vikes but none when it matters.

[matmaven]

Punting??? For what possible reason!

[jfkbengals]

We have two options.

1) Keep the oline we have, dump the running backs, and replace the QB with a guy who can accurately throw off his back foot.

2) Fix the oline.

I vote #2.

The Cincinnati offensive line is zone blocking on run plays again. Directional blocking worked well against the Steelers and Browns and I have no idea why the Bengals abandoned it.

To give our offensive juggernaut a chance to rest,

If you fix #2 then #1 takes care of itself.

Do you know how many plays the Vikings offense has been on the field?

Pin 'em deep, they have to be exhausted by now!

No blocking at all

They wanted to see another shitty Huber punt to the 18 yard line.

[jfkbengals]

Are we getting a late hit?

[oncemoreuntothejimbreech]

Down 0-27 in the 3rd quarter the Bengals reach Minnesota's side of the field for the first time and Marvin punts.

Don't won't to lose the momentum.

Shit might get bad.

Give it a rest already. Guess what NFL QBs have to deal with pressure. Andy can’t even execute plays that are meant to neutralize the pass rush. He has zero awareness of the play clock and he has terrible vision downfield when things breakdown.

Andy had a good o-line last year and we still missed the playoffs. He had a good line all of his other years and he couldn’t win a playoff game. He is not this great QB like you keep alluding to. Get over it.

When plays breakdown, which they do here often, watch how many WRs come back to give him a target to throw to.

The Bengals may be the only team where the majority of fans actually do know more than the coaches and team administration.
