***Week 17 GameDay Thread...Bengals @ Ravens***

[RiverRat13]

Clocking the ball with just under 40 seconds left was stupid. There was plenty of time to run a play. Could have used that extra down.

You forgot 17-123 return yards and 1-0 turnovers...

Good catch man! That’s Marvin ball. He lacks any killer instinct, plays way too conservative. He plays not to lose.

[*bfine32*]

Folks bashing Marvin for what happened at the end of the first half are funny. Save the keystrokes, he's gone after this game, but he has done nothing wrong this game. He has team that has "quit on him" ready to play a team playing for their playoff lives in game in frigid temperatures.

No timeouts, so if it came to a running clock on 4th down you need all the time you can get to get the FG unit on the field.

It was the smart play.

frozen balls...the footballs, not Randy....well, maybe him too, idk

[Bengalitis]

what was amazing was not the return, but the TD after the return in less than 4 seconds. Had it been the bengals, if we're lucky a FG if we've been in their shoes.

[*Awful Llama*]

Just imagine all of the Tennessee and Buffalo fans who are all "woo-hoo" over our 17-10 lead, little knowing about the infamous Merv 2nd half adjustments to come. Poor bastids.

[Fan_in_Kettering]

Cincinnati’s open field tackling is vastly improved.

[Bengalitis]

its obvious the Ravens decided to go short passes to change their 2nd half play. Got them completed passes and a first down.

I can’t remember a game Evans hasn’t been hurt.

[BrownAssClown]

Evans? Surprised he's active after last week.

That's because Evans went with the team doctor's diagnosis

Bah! That's a load of crap. The recruit was spot on! Should have been a squib kick. Period. That may be on the ST coach, but I didn't see Merv ripping him a new one for doing it. That's on Merv & everyone on here but you knows it.  

That said, Happy Holidays bfine.

That's a lady I don't want to meet!

Adjustments.

[jfkbengals]

I think that was the first time I've seen Lawson on the field today.

I'm assuming he has hit the rookie wall, as he has been pretty non-existent the last few weeks.

[BrownAssClown]

Giving Flacid too much time!
