Why didnt we run it on 3rd and short and then 4th if needed instead of an 18 yard punt?

Because last drive we got 22 yards doing it

Because Joe is rusty

Because Joe is struggling with the weather

Because our QB is just getting over a calf injury on a wet field

Should be running more from under center, this shotgun spread O when it's raining is a joke.

These runs are killing us. Too predicatble.

Absolutely.  Running off tackle is still a thing... For Chubb

He’s hurt way worse than they let on, imo

Because it was going to hit the 2 minute warning, regardless.

One time we threw it short

One time we threw it deep

I time we ran

But somehow they were all bad "play calling"

The first throw was dumb because the formation told them it was a pass. 

The deep throw was dumb because it was low percentage & not open. Plus I think it was empty also? 

The run wasn't dumb. But I just believe in a lead blocker on short yardage. Taylor doesn't. 

Another penalty on O.

Maybe we underestimate the importance of preseason?

[Housh]

Wow

[NUGDUKWE]

I do think I want one of those hats.

[CJD]

Illegal formation/shift is a penalty you should only ever get once in a game. Twice shows your designer is incompetent.

Taylor is just terrible at preparing a team to start the season not looking like dogshit.

[jfkbengals]

Need a Burrow scramble

[Fan_in_Kettering]

Joe isn’t running sideways well and I don’t think he’s 100% healthy.

[Destro]

Illegal shift, Illegal formation. Can someone teach the simple stuff?

[Vas Deferens]

Clear out your 401k.

Pathetic execution
