I saw a,oline that had issues recognizing defensive fronts
And alot of guessing who to block.
Collectively this group lacked coaching cohesion and 
Dare I say aggression.

I cant stand how this offense simply will not
Use motion and shifts occupy the eyes of the 
Defense and cause them to overthink their assignments
Hopefully ZT and BC will actually start thinking outside
The box. 

The best Bengals offense always had a innovative mind
On the sidelines

I saw it too, along with a ton of mental mistakes/lack of communication/blown assignments.  Part of that is the players screw ups, and another part of the problem was the coaching wasn't having them prepared to carry out the plan.  For an OL, it's tough to be aggressive when the entire unit is playing to separate sheets of music.
