***Week 2 GameDay Thread - Bengals @ Cowboys***

Junk the wide zone and go to more of a power scheme that attacks the defense; which is what all five OL starters are more comfortable with and physically suited for. Also it's time for a REAL NFL offensive coordinator who gets to install his own system and to strip Zac of playcalling.

Yep and then lays a friggin' goose egg for yards on the following drive.  Pathetic!!!

Anyone covering for that O-line can get lost.  They were the Achilles heel for our offense.

I see busted plays and a few quick hitters that kept our team in it.

Any real planned developed routes went in the shitter by the lack of blocking.

Wonder when Burrow will pull a Luck or Paler and retire or demand a trade.

Both lines and coaching has cost us the first two games. It’s mind boggling how this line is already worse than last years.

Watching TB and Brady and NE Qback today, they seem to have time to look downfield and chose a receiver for nice gains. They have TIME after the snap. Burrow always looks like he is running for his life.

If Zach is a big part of the problem with the predictable play calls how do they get him to give it up? It isn't working. Who steps up and says something?
Bengals always look like they are in retreat mode and never attack mode.

What makes it even more frustrating is watching these other teams like TB who’s line is a mess with starters out still look light years better than ours.

It's the curse of the Bengals fella.  Brown isn't going to pay up for top notch offensive linemen.  Think about it....the guys he signed....if they were really THAT good they would have been resigned by their previous teams.  If you have a lineman that you CAN'T replace then you're going to resign him.  It's as simple as that.

Lol I liked the play in the first half where we didn’t even have anyone on that one guy we needed to worry about. He could have ended Burriws season on that play.

McPherson regained his mojo today at least.

Man, that's some....well, it's not quite 4d chess...it's closer to this.
