I have learned fans every where are always like this.  No matter what the team does if they play does not work then it was a bad call.  Some times in the same thread some fans will be saying we run too much and other fans say we pass too much.

Unless every play is a 100% success soem fan is going to complain about the call and insist his play call would have worked better.

Squealing?  I think you have discussing a game plan on a message board with the sound Big Jen makes when someone steps on his foot.

We aren't expecting things to work every time, but you saw a masterful game plan by the Jets that the Bengals could be doing a lot more of early in games and forcing teams to adjust.  Running in to a pile isn't going to accomplish anything.  I am not saying abandon the run, but more to get the ball in your RBs hands in space.  It isn't that hard.  Watch the Browns, Jets (puke), Rams, and 49ers.  They don't have the receiving talent of Cincinnati and they still get the production out of their QB this way.
