Bengals WR Tyler Boyd frustrated with lack of targets

Boyd had only one catch for zero yards in the Bengals' 17-10 loss at Oakland, Cincinnati's 10th defeat in as many games this season. The fourth-year receiver was targeted a mere three times, his fewest amount since 2017.

This was my favorite part. It illustrates the fact that the coaches are wishy washy...and there is a lack of accountability. Yeah...it's a great read on 4th and 4 to throw deep to an UDFA who's double-covered when a guy is wide-open!

Boyd, who signed a new four-year, $43 million deal this offseason, was specifically frustrated about not getting the ball on a fourth-and-4 at Oakland's 27-yard line. Finley opted to throw to rookie Damion Willis, who was double-covered in the end zone. The pass was incomplete.

Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan said it wasn't a bad read by Finley, who was 13-of-31 passing for 115 yards and an interception. However, Callahan also conceded Boyd was open.

God this coaching staff is bad. They act as if they say something then people are stupid enough to believe it.

One note on Tyler Boyd expressing his displeasure with lack of targets (https://t.co/zCW3UP591f). When it's fourth-and-4 with the game on the line and your best WR is on a LB breaking open at the sticks, you better throw him the ball. Or else, expect him to be pissed. pic.twitter.com/gm5BhGJdiJ

Boyd's right. They could....if:
- Everyone was healthy
- All the underperforming players from last year actually made (vast) improvements this year
- Dalton could throw a deep ball accurately on a consistent basis
- They catered the playcalling to their strengths
