Game Thread Ravens @ Bengals 12/29

Honestly, the regression in Flacco's game is staggering. He had time, he had an open receiver, he threw several feet behind him. Poor decision-making, poor accuracy. If it's because he's injured, he shouldn't be out there. If it's because of the O-line, put in the more mobile QB to make some plays.

...we're done. the deck was stacked just the way we needed it and with all the opportunities we had we still couldn't get it done. Ever since half-time Joe just looked out of it and un-concerned. This really hurts because we had numerous chances to beat these guys.

Yeah what happened to the Torrey Smith that we knew? Maybe he should grow his dreadlocks back.

Ref interference lol. Why is Flacco still in this game?

**alien bird** · 12-29-2013, 04:59 PM

Bengals player just high fived the ref for breaking up that pass. That's funny.

I think it's new OC first.

Then a TE to help Pitta - someone who's big, fast, can be the guy we wanted Dickson to be.

And fix that fucking O-line. RT and a C.

I think we can work with WRs, though Jacoby is likely needing replacement. New scheme may fix quite a bit - Torrey/Marlon are guys we can go with. Mellette may or may not show something.

Well, this game has been the microcosm of this entire season. Offense can't score in the first half and then comes alive in the second half (too late). The D plays good in the first 3 quarters, then can't make the stops needed in the 4th quarter. This team deserves their 8 - 8 record. I will say it's been fun actually watching the Bengals NFL offense.

Time to start thinking about the draft and free agency.

the Bengals are gonna give us all this underneath stuff now it just works in their favor to keep the clock running cause they know they've already won.

They need to just blow up the entire offensive coaching staff and bring in a fresh set of eyes..

Defense is terrible too. Lots of holes on this team on both sides of the ball.
