Two Rushing Touchdowns in Six Games

[Fan_in_Kettering]

That’s right! Cincinnati has scored only two rushing touchdowns in six games. You know what’s even worse? Both were scored in the Red Zone by Andy Dalton on broken pass plays.

Joe Mixon can’t find the end zone. Giovani Bernard can’t find a first down.

This offensive line’s inability to pass block is only exceeded by their inability to run block. 56.5 yards rushing per game is disgusting.

I'm surprised it was that many.

So... what you're trying to tell me in this thread is that Andy Dalton is carrying this team on both his arm and legs and everyone else sucks?

[*Nately120*]

This is on ZT for not running the ball more and letting our RBs get a rhythm going...or at least that was one of the excuses we tried to use before we realized Jeremy Hill was a one-year wonder.

You know what this means? It means every offensive point the Bengals have scored all year is due to a pass from Andy Dalton, a run by Andy Dalton, or a kick by Fat Randy.

It’s the Andy and Randy show.

Our inability to run the ball is just dumbfounding, it's beyond explanation !

Yes I get it, the Oline sucks. But to me this level of ineptitude goes beyond just the Oline. Bad scheme, bad gameplan, bad playcalling, lack of effort, just not giving a crap, all the above ?

I don't know what the answer is ?

The answer isn’t Jim Turner. He’s worse than the Piano Man.

One of the biggest shams of 2019 will be those trying to convince us that the running game will be just fine after seeing how horrible the OL performed in preseason. You won't fool me twice. I am very much regretting drafting Mixon in FFB though.

I’m really not convinced Zac Taylor understood he was flying into the eye of a Category V shitstorm when he interviewed for the head coaching job.

This is why I thought Bieniemy was a better fit. He played during the Lost Decade with Mike Brown's Bengals, so he would best understand what he would be getting into.

Good morning.

Today’s beautiful Purple Monday ?is brought to you by the record-setting Lamar Jackson, who rushed for more yards (36) on his first run than the entire Bengals ran all day (33).

He’s on pace to throw for 4,018 yards and rush for 1,226.pic.twitter.com/YkuRuBBFpa

Don't worry. We've identified a solution:

Zac Taylor on the offensive line/offense blocking to get the run game to work: "They've gotta win some 1-on-1 battles. They've gotta move guys."

Our offense only has 3 total tds in the last 3 games.

Even when Hill sucked he still scored TDs.

They just have to make the other team 'kiss the baby,' as a wise man once said.

Geez, we're treating every game like it's a playoff game.

[reuben.ahmed]

We gt 56 yards rushing a game and give up almost 190. Can you even imagine this? We're deadlast in both categories, but how on earth do we average giving up that many yards. Tired defenders.

[bengaloo]

its the worst OL I've ever seen. I question some of the play calling for sure, but the fact remains, no matter what the play call is, our OL is getting the shit knocked out of them by opposing DL's on almost every play. For instance I thought it was stupid to run up the middle 2 plays in a row in the red zone. But on the other hand, when you have Mixon and Gio, you "should" be able to run the ball in that situation. The only thing that made those plays bad play calls is Taylor having faith in the OL to open up a hole to run through. They got dominated. Us fan knew they would. Taylor is still thinking somehow his OL is going to open a hole in a critical situation I guess.

This team is hurting, but it didnt start this season at all. Tobin and Marvin let things go starting with Whit followed by bad draft decisions. We dont even have Glenn this year. Its pretty much a wash at OL. Who is starting at LT now? Thats what I thought. Jonah may be the man for us next year, and maybe Price and Jordan could develop into decent Gs. But we need a RT and G's and that is priority #1 in the offseason followed by LB. Nobody can run behind an OL this bad. And the playcalling may be a bit too predictable.
