Cincinnati Bengals (Same Ole Bengals)

or a head coach that does anything at all to minimize exposing the defense?

Unless you just don't walk them out there? The Bengals have such personnel issues at DL, LB and DB, it's impossible to minimize them at the professional level.

I didn't watch this week's game, but against the Jets with a 6 point lead and a running game that was pretty effective he ran 3 weak assed pass plays and punted.

That's insane. It's rare to see pancakes like that in the NFL given the skill level. I wonder if he slipped or what happened. He's too damn big to get blown off the LOS like that

Some more graphs and fun facts on the ineptitude if both my hometown team (Atlanta Falcons) and my adoptive team (Bengals).

Football really needs to end Saturday at midnight for me.

Pad level, hand usage, burst and leg drive.

Here is something you can blame on Zac Taylor. Changing his mind when deciding he wanted to kick a field goal after the clock had already started ticking.

Darrin Simmons said Evan McPherson's short kick on 54-yard attempt came with a QB ball, not a K-ball. And because the field goal unit came on after play clock started, the kicking team had to use the QB ball.
