REALLY?

 

[Cincyfan78]

Allen should have had an INT

 

[kramer1]

4th and 10 set up by that stupid play call on 2nd down. Gruden is a retard.

 

[Cincyfan78]

That was a flag, but you are not getting that call there, AJ

 

[kramer1]

LOL @ them finally going deep NOW

 

[kramer1]

Ballgame and goodnight.

Thanks. Good win for you. At least our last two are at home.

 

[Cincyfan78]

Yeah, that first qtr...this team simply was not ready. Point blank. The bad snap, and then punting the ball right down the middle for Brown was a huge mistake. Not just because of the hit on Huber, but because they should have known not to give him room to run.

Out coached, out-played, out-hustled, and out muscled.

 

[bengaldoug]

We blew it in the first five minutes.......

 

[JBUCK66]

that was the worst shit ever

 

[bengaldoug]

This one is clearly on special teams....not used to them costing us....normally they're saving us.

 

[JBUCK66]

I thought it was the whole clownboat with captain Marvin Lewis

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Good game gents! If it wasn't for those special teams blunders I'm pretty sure the Bungals would have handed it to PIT. Still plenty of time to get the wheels turning for January football!

Kick some ass in the playoffs and represent the AFCN!

Special teams, the defensive tackling, lack of pass rush, lack of coverage, poor ass coaching all played parts in this debacle. I knew this game was going to be rough.

Dalton was not great tonight, but he played a decent game. Unfortunately, when you are down that many early, hard to come back and win. Poor coaching didn't help either.

We sucked as a team, but I would not put the blame on Dalton in this one.

57% Comp / 230 yards / 2 TD's and 0 TO's.

He made some smart deceisions with the ball when nothing was open, just throwing it away.

Going to be scouring the FA list for punters and CB's this next week.

When Baltimore loses tomorrow night, we will be good to go anyways.

Miami in the 1st round at home, not too bad of a way to start. They are a good young team, but I think beatable in our house.

And ironically, Tate had good return yardage.

And ironically, Tate had good return yardage.

You know we had a bad night when Tate is the best player on the field.

The first quarter kicked us in the nuts way too hard for us to recover. Basically have a rookie corner in the game and our pass rush was zilch.

We have to let it go and come home and seal the deal. It could be worse. We could be Cowboys fans.

I think the turning point was the Peerman fair catch miscue.

I think the turning point was the Peerman fair catch miscue.

That was one of them for sure. You know he was just trying to let Tate know he had the ball.
