Bengals vs. Dolphins game thread

[kramer1]

Miami is the better team with the better QB, RB, and defense. And coaches. Good for them. Tannehill will be a star. Dalton will be on a bench in 2 season tops.

Ball game. Dalton stunk all game.

As expected. He has yet to play well against a good defense in his albeit short career.

 

[Tubbs1518]

I honestly can't believe how much he looked like Paler today.

 

[gcostanza]

no way we beat the browns next week, we suck, marvin sucks, our rbs suck we will not win again all year

 

[Tubbs1518]

Shut up. The Browns are still the Browns

 

[gcostanza]

we barely beat them at home, i guarantee we lose that game

 

[BigBlueNation111]

and life goes on! Let's go Reds!

Lol. How about if we win you never come back?

Rey called it last week. Once we play a good D, this offense will sputter. It's not clear why it's so difficult for us to convert third downs when we have two guys (Leonard and Hawkins) that are good at that sort of thing.

I was the most critical of Hawkins last year of anyone on this board, but now I'm a fan. We have a great #1 and potentially a great slot receiver (wish he had a few more inches though). We're hurting for a number 2 receiver that defenses have to respect downfield. Binns always gets 1 on 1 coverage and yet the only plays he can make are within 10 yards and everything else is yac. The safety overtop rarely has to look over his way making it easier to focus on Hawkins, the run game, etc.

excactly. they need to move on from the Binns experiment. we have 2 other receivers that perhaps deserve a look before we need to look for one in the offseason.

It's be nice if they'd at least activate the rookies

Sanu was active..... Uninvolved, but active.

Sanu has lined up for one play in the wildcat - The play went for a 70 yard touchdown. Wouldn't you think they'd at least show another team the same formation and then run or do something else creative out of it? Would it really hurt?

Gruden was badly out-coached by Coyle today.... Dalton looked confused and the passing attack was vanilla at best. As for the run? Embarrassing. The numbers would even be worse if Dalton didn't pick up some big chunks running for his life.

The Law Firm, bitches!

Can we counter-sue?

Does the most common form of cancer really need "awareness?" It needs a cure. We're all very aware, though.

The pink is just downright gay.

This has to rank up there as one of the most uninspired, outmatched offensive performances of the Marvin Lewis era. I hate to say it, but flamingrey has pretty much been spot on about Dalton. He sucks against decent defenses. And although he struggles with throws 20 yds+, we have to get more explosive on the outside. Armon Binns does nothing for me. He's a possession receiver who accels from 15 yds in. We need speed outside, especially with all the coverage being rolled to Greens side. Marvin jones and Mo Sanu need to play. Plain and simple. They are the explosive guys we need. Goddamnit somebody kill Marvin Lewis.
