Honor In Defeat The Way Bengals Played Ravens

[kevin]

Odds Makers had this the TILT of the week, Baltimore was suppose to beat Bengals worse than they beat Buffalo. Instead it went into Overtime. Announcers said it was the best NFL game by both teams so far this year. Ravens could have won, Bengals could have won, but Ravens won on a field goal in overtime. Those who bet on the Bengals getting clobbered lost money.

Some of you may not buy into honor in defeat. However I thought Bengals played Kansas City and Baltimore tough. I wish Bengals had won, and I feel bad they lost. However I'm NOT ashamed of Bengals. They played a good game against a tough team today. Those saying to blow this team up and rebuild, I disagree. That was a good Bengals team out there today.

The Ravens were only 2.5 point favorites.

If the defense isn't considered, "shameful", then I obviously do not know the proper definition of the word.

You are what your record says you are. They are one of the worst teams in the league and that is embarrassing.

It was a good story. 

We should be past moral victories. Yet here we are.

DO NOT bring that positive shit into here. We're mad right now.

I wonder if Zac will give them a “we played them tough” Monday.

We are losers

We find ways to lose.

There was some good, sure. But, 1-4 is 1-4.

We're a 1-4 team whose offense has played well enough to be 4-1. That's why I 've had it with Lou - no matter the talent level no defense should be THIS bad. It might not be great but even with this talent we should be getting average to slightly below average defense. Watching a pass rush that never gets home coupled with WIDE OPEN receivers every single game fairly screams there is a misfit between the scheme and the abilities of the players. A good DC would (at least temporarily) scrap their beloved scheme and install something that - however simplified - the players can at least execute.
