***Week 13 GameDay Thread - Steelers @ Bengals***

[Millhouse]

Its looking like Bengals D will be tied with Dallas in 2nd most points given up per game at 29.3. Carolina will still be the worst. Jags D moves up past both by barely sucking less.
Lou and Zimmer both could be looking for jobs in a few weeks.

Pittsburgh went into the game 3rd best of 32 teams in terms of points allowed with just 16.9. The Bengals put up 31 points on offense. Now your description of the defense was spot on.

Our play calling sucks. That's why I was complaining about it.

And Tucker misses another.

Tucker missed a PAT (hit crossbar) and two FGs.  10 FGs missed this season  Never had that on my bingo card.

Bills/Lions Super Bowl sounds fun to me. Just no more Chiefs/Eagles please....

My ideal Super Bowl this time around is Lions & Texans. I have zero past issues with either team, at least with what my riddled brain remembers. Bills, Chiefs, Ravens, Pitt ... yuck. And Chargers have Harbaugh so no.

Wish he'd started that shit years ago.

He has a good shot at breaking Pickens single season record of 17, too.

Mike Tomlin called Tee a goon in his press conference in response to all the Porter Jr penalties.

[Timanky12]

Zac Taylor record in 1 score games (8 points), since 2019 is 17-35, that say it all

[Bengalfan4life27c]

A new D coordinator wont fix this. We refuse to run so no matter how good of d coordinator we get. Due to Zach refusing to stick with a run game even when working D will continually be put in bad spots.

Sorry, but I have plenty of "past issues" with them.  2011 and 2012 playoffs ring a bell?  JJ Twat running his mouth year after year?  They were obnoxious the first game we played them in 2002 with the "Who's the expansion team?" signs. 

Man, **** the Texans.

Yep. I think from here on out, I'm rooting for the Lions, Bronco's and Commanders.

Kind of has.

He's gotten worse each of the last 3 years. He's 13 of 27 (48.1%) from 50+ during that time after being 48 of 66 (72.7%) prior to that in his career.

Missed 4 PATs in the last 3 years, compared to 4 PATs in his first 10 years.

There's absolutely no reason Lou should have a job on 02 DEC 24.

We scored 38 on the Steelers and lost.

[Nicomo Cosca]

Tucker is missing a bunch of kicks this year, too. Maybe they need Brad Robbins.

The Bengals defense just had its worst performance of the season across the board against a middle of the pack Steelers offense.

Coming off a bye week.

With the season on the line.

Against a division rival.

Anybody who was at the game know why security kept surrounding the field during timeouts in the 2nd half? I figured maybe people were throwing things after the crappy offsides call before halftime, but I have no idea. I'm in the canopy so it was hard to tell.

[*Awful Llama*]

"Steelers trounce Bengals" They lost by six points, FFS. Man, **** the Texans and CBS.

[*bfine32*]

BTW why is JN still closed?

I think it's Holic forcing a cooldown period.
