They said they couldn't follow Dalton due to the zone coverage. Said that they'd get "walled off" (which admittedly I don't know what that means) or a DB would undercut the route.
If you're Dalton, what do you do at that point? I think he did a fantastic job of protecting the ball and taking what was there, considering the circumstances. He took a few deep shots, but the coverage was all over that.
Exactly. Not AD's fault. That's coaching and prep by the coaches. Pitt has killed the Bengals for years with turning water into wine in these situations. Yet the Bengals coaches don't realize the garbage play of the line enough at this point in the year to plan for that exact type of thing? Turn a weakness into a strength for F's sake.
