This end of game with just over 2:00 min left and 1 and 10. We could barely run 20 seconds off the clock. That was pathetic. At least make them use there timeouts we could not even do that.

The reason you dont make them use their timeouts in that situation is because if the Bengals dont get the first down, Seattle still has plenty of time to score even without the timeouts so the timeouts are a non factor. The most important thing at that point is for the Bengals to be able to get the 1st down. If they dont get the 1st down, Seattle gets the ball with over 2 minutes left in the game.

I fee like I'm whining, when I'm happy that the Bengals are at 3-3 heading into the bye. But..
If the Bengals had shown up to the first game of the season ready to play we could be at 5-1 among the leaders of the NFL and 2 games up in the division. Before today the Bengals had a less than 20% chance to make the playoffs per the oddsmakers. Today the Bengals had 77 yards of offense after the 1st quarter in 8 possessions. If our defense disappeared as often as our offense does, we'd already be talking about the draft. As a result, I'm not looking for the offense to came alive and become top 5. I'm just looking for them to become better, competent at moving the chains, getting the defense get off the field and scoring 2+ touchdowns (right now the offense has scored 8 TDs in 6 games).

A lot of teams are struggling offensively. Out of 28 teams that have played this week, only 5 have managed to score over 21 points.

The Bengals moves in FA don’t match the poor success in the OL. It’s obvious that Zac needs an OL coach who is smart and scheme savvy and a good evaluator. It’s not Zac’s strength.1 Pollack is none of those. Mike Brown loves Pollack as does Zac. But it’s time to cut bait.

I getcha, I don't know much about Kromer lol You would think the only OL coaches that would come here would be for making the jump to the pros over college and not lateral moves switching from one OL coaching job in the NFL to another. Having Burrow here might entice someone though or just pay the guy a lot of dough, probably both. Hate seeing the Stains having Brian Callahan's dad as their OL coach. Want that guy here damn it all.

He's been coaching in the NFL for 7 years. Zac knows him and they've worked under McVays system together. I just don't see any negatives in this pic. ![]()

Which is why I didn't consider it. i am a pretty big Michigan fan so have followed Moore pretty closely there. And although everyone is right, you can never really tell how a college coach (especially OL) will transfer to the NFL, he is definitely worth a look. The results speak for themselves, but most importantly because (although Michigan recruits very good players, don't get me wrong) he does a great job of taking good players and making them great/elite. Olu Oluwatimi, who won the Rimington last year, was a transfer. What you get in Moore is a guy who constantly and consistently develops players and gets the most out of them. Now, I cannot say that he is ready to leave Michigan or anything like that, or that he's better than the guys others have suggested, but in terms of his ability to mold and shape guys into great offensive lineman is really something I would love to see us do.

I get that but Moore is pretty good and RPO’s and the Zone Read came from college. Zac didn’t hire Pollack not that he was opposed but Pollack’s relationship with the Bengals was before Zac. Zac’s reputation in the coaching circles is solid as the staff finally is in place. I’m sure he will get some good candidates if they do move on.
