What the hell happened to Joe Burrow's confidence?!?!?!?! He has lost the dog in the fight. I don't see him excited for the hunt, the rising to the challenge. I'm not a sports psychologist but something competitive is missing. I worry about Joe Burrow mentally more so than the wrist. He is still in recovery somewhere.
Bengals Andrew Lucked him. History is repeating itself. Another hof level qb ruined by front office malpractice. That's what happens when you get sacked 70 times a year by 250+lbs men yearly.
Is Zach Taylor finally going to realize that not playing his players in the preseason leads to poor sloppy undisciplined performances early on in the regular season
Yes this is very true, been saying it for the last season or two. But also (I don’t know how you feel about it so don’t get mad) what Ja’Marr did with his contract after being told he will get his contract next offseason has really made the locker room/team mood go down and discouraged.
This is their formula to make sure they are peaking at the end of the season instead of the middle. Chase and Higgins have been whining about their contracts all off-season while Burrow was rehabbing. They are not leadership material to say the least.
That chiefs D line looks absolutely monstrous. You guys will be lucky to walk out of Arrowhead with Joe in one piece after that atrocious performance this past Sunday…
Burrow has actually said that he prefers to be in shotgun and hates to turn his back on the defense. We brought in a passing game coordinator, a new OC and talked about play action and rolling pockets. Instead... It's the same thing as last year before he got hurt. It's clear his wrist is still bothering him and it looks the same as it did when he hurt his calf. He's afraid in the pocket and can't throw down the field and be consistent with accuracy. I think the coaching staff knows all this and is protecting him with the play calling. I do expect him to improve as the season goes on, but maybe our MVP hopes aren't realistic for this year
Cincy always starts with a turd. In Taylor’s tenure 1-1 equals Super Bowl. The year they went to Bowl they lost to awful Bears and Jets teams. All the anger and frustration goes away with a win at KC.
13 different line changes, 3 different starters at RB, Burrow sacked over 150 times...yet the one constant is still there, no matter the personnel, we get the same result. It's the scheme! Pollack has to be fired! Watching the Niners last night with a backup RB and they didn't skip a beat! They put on a clinic on run blocking to the second level. Pollacks scheme sucks!
I know the feeling. I don’t mind going to the grocery store, buying, bagging and transporting my groceries to my house. But I can’t stand having to unbag them and put them away. But guess what, I still have to do them so that my family has food to eat for the week lol.

Why tf is Hudson coming in on 3rd downs over Mike G 13. Only attacking outside the numbers and never the middle of the field in the passing game unless its a safety net checkdown to the RB 14. Frank Pollack is still on the payroll? Why? He sucks. 15. draft picks like ALWAYS injured early in the season 16. Higgins TRADE HIM. Hes always injured with this BS hamstring issue for the past 3 seasons. Hes milking it now because he doesnt want to play 17. Chase, PAY HIM OR TRADE HIM. The locker room cancers are going to destroy the morale of this team. 18. not being aggressive and pushing the ball downfield. 19. Why pay star players if you dont plan to utilize them? 20. This team is spiraling...SPIRALING back to the Bungles and it ALL starts with the front office and the man who signs the checks. Why tf cant Cinci ever get business done without drama when cowboys just made Ceedee a top paid WR and Dak the highest paid player in NFL history all before the start of the season but Cinci cant figure out how to negotiate contracts. SB talks? FOH. They dont have a snowballs chance in hell at a SB losing and being EMBARASSED by the Patriots like that, the Pats are GARBAGE, so what does that make us? 21. This team is overrated, we arent contenders anymore, were officially pretenders.
Since 2019 Mikey Brown left $52m of cap unspent and again another 8 this year. What else could we have done with that $? Keep probowler Bates? Maybe kept Mixon? How about reader? Or maybe paid tee and Ja'marr? None of those. Instead Hamilton county gonna pony up $150m in reno $. We think Mike Brown is an idiot he's the smartest guy in southern ohio
The fuck does jamarr getting paid have to do with Charlie Jones being a shitty returner. Or gisecki and Hudson loosing balls. Or burrow playing like a chicken or the right side of O line not blocking worth shyt? Or the defense not tackling?
@@craigharris41 correction. Defense held one of the worst offenses in the league to 16 points. While a career backup journeyman QB picked them apart and their RB ran for over 100 yards at will.
Was that the preseason team, or the regular season team? It was both. The regular season team is unclear, because none of those guys were in regular season mode, because they didn't play any preseason games. The preseason is to get these guys in shape for the regular season. The Bengals wasted the preseason, and it's definitely going to show in their regular season play. As we all witnessed last Sunday.
Good points but these games on top of injuries and you look up 4 games behind the league is to competitive!! He hasn’t played well in a while but his name is top 3 mentioned 😢
The fumbles, the forgetting how to tackle, the playcalling, whoever calls a two yard play on 3rd down with 4 or 5 yards to go is a problem. Tanner hudson was a damn problem. The jamarr chase not practicing was a problem. Boils down to zac taylor
I suspect his wrist was bothering Joe a bit either during or shortly after the first preseason game. This is the main reason why Zac didn't have him play in anymore preseason games. He wanted to let it have more time to heal and to minimize the opportunity of getting seriously injured. I think Joe knew right then that he was going to be in trouble very possibly for the season and for sure if he didn't give it more rest. But he always fights through stuff till the bitter end (honestly the fight in him to something to be 100% admired, i think it's what everyone loves most about him, but it's also to his own detriment) No doubt, the others starters were kept primarily out of the remaining preseason games because Joe wasn't going to be in.. which the obvious pattern = slow start. I can understand everyone's sense of frustration like.. we've been down this road and we're suffering from extreme ptsd because of where we're afraid it might lead. Let's just hope we're overreacting a bit and that we really are quite a bit better than this.. we almost have to be better.. right? Lol
I feel the same. During that Chicago joint practice his style wasn't the same. Everyone kept writing it off as that's Joe wants to work on but all honesty how he played was how he's been practicing the last month. I hope we can rely on the run game to take pressure off him. It maybe like the calf 2.0
Look up the surgery he had, he may be toast. Recovery numbers are not the greatest... Also zac taylor is not a head coach. He will never be one again once he leaves this job. Unfortunately bengals won't win either until there is a real leader as a head coach
With Amarius Mims coming back,jumbo 6 lineman with 12 personnel formation should help the running game this week. Establish the run,then the passing game will develop along the way.
Fabulous show gentlemen. Sans is always strong. Am now wondering or realizing 2 things.. 1) Chase saga missing reps with Joe very likely affected that last drive...2) is joe fully healed to throw downfield or perhaps is he lacking full confidence in wrist to let er rip.....very troubling.
Is there any thought that we want with a simplified version of our offense to put out a specific film for the Chiefs? Things like not running the ball under center -> run under center against chiefs? Only run in pistol -> more play action or RPO in pistol against chiefs?
@@Truthteller01 i don’t know if you’ve been around these parts for the last few years but doubting burrow and this team to not have a good season is just nonsense
I don't think Burrow is a top 3 or 5 guy. While he can look like a top 1-2 guy sometimes for brief periods he's also quite capable of looking like the worst QB in the league quite often. He is massively overrated. Top 7 would be the ceiling for him when we look at his body of work overall.
Sorry but we can't, as bengals fans, put this on the defense. 1st game and they keep having to go right back out there because the offense keeps going 3 and out!?!? And still hold them to 16 points after that plus the turnovers!?!? The defense looked better after that first N.E scoring drive but the offense made them be on the field way too much in short spurts
I saw a comment on an unbiased football site with this question: "How long is Bengal Ownership going to put up with these Slow Starts by Head Coach Zac Taylor?" I have defended Taylor in the past considering he took the team to the Super Bowl and AFC Championship. BUT there are games where the team looks unprepared and not ready to go... Last season after the team made a nice run to get into playoff contention without Burrow. The team had all the big Mo and didn't show up in Pittsburgh costing the team a playoff spot. Reasonably you have to assume there is a good chance the team loses in Kansas City. Starting 0-2 puts the team in a hole once again.
Anyone complaining about play calling I hope realizes that Burrow can check out of plays at the line. Unless you know what plays he is checking out of I don't know how you can comment on play calling..
3 turnovers, bad play by Alex Cappa and O line as a unit, Chase was too busy holding rather than getting open and D couldn’t stop the run game. We couldn’t convert third downs and keep drives alive. The end.
Although we didn’t look ready overall. I’m not going to week 1 overreact. We need Tee and Ja’Marr to play/lock in. I’m okay with conservative play calling offensively. Burrows health is all that matters!! WHO DEY 🐅
The more I am seeing about how short we were throwing the ball. And the stuff about Joe Burrow favoring the hand. And putting on a glove. Has he reinjuried to any degree? Oh. This isn't Cleveland. We don't wear orange pants. Guess we do. Bad juju
I just want to mention something that everybody seems to be overlooking here. The one bright spot for NE throughout all of last season was their defense. They had a good defense last year and they have a good defense again this year.
I'll give some credit to the Patriots, but c'mon without the turnovers the Bengals would have put up at least 27 points on that defense because they lost 10-14 points off the inexcusable turnovers. Burrow also should have thrown to Yoshi, or Chase on the last drive for a wide open TD, but he didn't have enough trust to let the play develop downfield, which is uncharacteristic for him. The Bengals really gave up 6 points to them truly and no touchdowns. It was 2 field goals. The missed tackling with the run game, which lets face it Stevenson is still running. Why did Lou send so many to drop in coverage? That was a complete waste of time. Everyone and their mother knew the Patriots were going to exclusively run, so load the boxes and tackle. It really shouldn't be that hard to tackle when the Patriots are predictable and one dimensional to kill you by running the ball down your throat. It's pathetic that 11 people can't tackle one person the entire game. The Bengals also get so hellbent on tackling to force a turnover with a punch of the ball instead of just tackling to squash the yards after contact. Stevenson had all but 4 of his rushing yards after contact, which is inexplicable. CTB also got dragged for like 8 yards on the last run play of the game by Stevenson. That is atrocious and the Bengaks should not have allowed themselves to be manhandled/bullied like that.
@heathswinson6506 I don't know if Jenkins is the answer. Hopefully he is, but based off of the preseason, Jenkins really didn't make that much of an impact against backup players. Of course McKinnley Jackson also got hurt, so essentially the two players that we drafted to supposedly replace Reader and stop the run are both injured. I don't know we may have to try and bring in someone off the waiver wire. It really can't get much worse than what we already have. Golly I can't take another one of our top players that we refuse to pay and let walk scott free without any draft compensation/adequate replacement mess up the entire season. Refusing to bring back Reader may bite us in the long run. Knowing that run support was one of your biggest weaknesses, it's mind boggling to think that two draft picks in the second and third rounds are going to be a savior solely responsible for stopping the run. That's just not realistic. I know that the run defense was pitiful even with Reader until he got hurt at the end of the season, but I'm convinced Reader struggled prior to the injury as a result of the safety, corner and LB duo being atrocious from miscommunicated assignments, busted coverages and alignments.
@@allisondecker1918 “Bengals would’ve put up 27 points if the patriots defense didn’t bully them into submission” Fixed it for ya. The pats defense is a top 10 unit. They were last year & they will be again this year.
@@IEdjumacate Top 10 unit. I don't know about that. You lost Matthew Judon and Christian. Prayers for Christian that he recovers from the blood clots. The Patriots deserve some credit for the turnovers, but c'mon that is just 2 costly self inflicted careless turnovers that is more of a byproduct of a lack of ball security and focus then 2 great defensive plays. Props to you that you made us pay for our lack of execution and preparation. Those 10 turnover points gave you the win because outside of that your offense was all Stevenson, which is utterly ridiculous that 11 people couldn't load the boxes and tackle him. All but 4 of his yards came after contact, so if we tackled him your offense would have been held to essentially nothing. Even with all the running yards given up, your offense scored 6 points, which is the concern going forward. I do agree with you that your defense can keep them within the games, but 6 points from your offense is going to be really hard to stack up wins. Please beat the Bills and Dolphins. Hopefully you can get more wins than the Panthers and Giants. Zac failed this team from a coaching standpoint. He was outcoached by a rookie head coach in his first game. That is inexcusable. The play calling scheme needed to be two dimensional and less predictable. The O line couldn't pass protect, or run block, which led to no run game, short passes at, or behind the line of scrimmage and no time for plays to develop downfield coupled with penalties, a dropped interception from Jacoby and the turnovers hence why you lost to an inferior team from an overall roster standpoint.
Literally just feed Chase. He’d literally be looked at as the undisputed best receiver if you constant fed him the ball instead of only throwing him Go routes and receiver screens. I feel he’s the only receiver in the Top 5 where they actively feed him sparingly
Is zt the coach or burrow the coach make his ass do under center -run the ball get the playaction going, protect burrow get the defense out of two high - it all works together but we simply refuse
Browning did better getting explosive plays last year than Joe. Seems like he missing a lot of reads, and or hesitating. Let it fly Joe! Also play calling still sucks, wish Zac would give it up and focus on getting the players dry and in game decisions.
I think Joe Burrow is so use to having constant pressure he's not taking his time and going through his reads like he should because he's just assuming he doesn't have any time to do so.. I think that's part of it.
Offensive line was terrible at start. Dax Hill takes bad angles and missed two tackles he can't afford to miss. Play calling should have more runs early instead of late in the game when your fighting the clock.
Yes, let's 2nd guess the pro QB with no protection and 3rd string weapons. Skip the offensive line of the non-existent defensive lines, no problems there LOL
Honest to christ 9 guys in the box and they still can't tackle or stop the run. Panic button pressed. They don't have enough personnel. I don't wanna hear superbowl until they can stop the run. PERIOD.
1. Joe Mixon has 30 carries 159 yds 2. We don't play action boot. 3. We don't use multiple TE sets , which create extra gaps for defense to defend. Look what NE did for us? 4. Horrible play calling. 5. Spread offense QBs don't fair well in NFL, and either do spread offenses. 6. Get Joe out of pocket 7. Get Joe under center 8. Browning offensive scheme last year would aiut Joe. 9. Use a lead blocker. 10. They have nice TEs.who can get in stance and flex out and be wr type players. Use them for both. 11. I haven't discussed the horrible tackling. It's on coach.
Insane that they thought they could throw burrow into the season with no preseason work. Especially against the Pats defense. Thrown right into the wolves. Burrow looked like Mac Jones
The fuck does jamarr getting paid have to do with Charlie Jones being a shitty returner. Or gisecki and Hudson loosing balls. Or burrow playing like a chicken or the right side of O line not blocking worth shyt? Or the defense not tackling?
Crazy part is Burrow was this bad but we are still 14-13 if Hudson doesn’t fumble Also Charlie turned into a bum after his fumble His next return he let a ball bounce that he should’ve fielded.
I am 51 and seen ALL of this before. The Bengals have a culture of losing, and it's the ownership. Nothing will ever change as long as the Brown family are involved with this team. They are rotten from the top down, and promising talent comes to Cincinnati to die here. I have grown to just instinctively root against them. I have no idea how they sell out games every year.
My take is Joe B. is only human and he was scared. First really scary snaps and he has so much pressure riding on his young self, it's crazy. Plus drama with Ja'Marr hitting the news doesn't help. But I smell a lil racism - Ja'Marr Chase is a huge talent in his own right and yet he gets overshadowed by his buddy Joe B. Bengals office, get your crap together and settle these contracts before the season goes completely off the rails. I wouldn't risk my body and health for no contract. Ja'Marr is smart.
We don't throw deep enough, we don't stay with the run, running backs will never have a 100 yard game, they are not given enough carries, somebody tell me why we don't throw deep on the first or second series of the game... They always want go 10 plays or more to get down the field....WHY..... ARE WE EVER GOING TO SEE , AH, ONE PASS , TOUCHDOWN, EARLY ??????
Taylor would much rather play the safe game and run the quick pass for every play and waste a bunch of time just to get down the field. When we did throw down the field to Chase, we were able to move down the field with ease that whole possession and do the run game and lo and behold; we scored a touchdown. I don't know why they want to run so many plays behind the line of scrimmage or do quick 2-3 yard completions, that only works for a few times. We need more variation, our OL needs to prove to Joe that they can protect him and maybe he will consider doing different types of play schemes besides just shotgun; we are really limited in the amount of plays when we just play gun all game. We lose yardage since we don't throw it down the field, it's an extra 3 yards we lose from gun formation
Taylor should stick to being HC and not call plays, he plays the game too safe and it costs us many games because of it. There's a time and place to play the game safe, but when it comes down to NEED to risk plays, we play it safe and lose. Just like with the 4th and 5 punt; we could of had a first down using some type of trickery and then had a chance to go down field while running the clock and score to take the lead, that's what 2021 Bengals would have done. Our team can't keep playing scared ball
Three words you can use "not good enough." Any attempts to improve areas deficient a year ago are showing zero promise thus far. Start talking facts and not references like "slow start" or "lack of playing time in preseason." The fear is the running game is not improved. This has an undeniable effect on the passing game as the opposing defense loads up and just keeps everything in front of them. Limits the chances for any big plays downfield. The Bengals defense vs. the run is not improved. Their pursuit is being used against them. This creates holes, if they are filling holes, poor tackling is the culprit. This is simply why Gesicki could not hold his endzone reception, LACK of TOUGHNESS. Not mentally or physically tough. Their attitude indicates assumptions they are making that it is automatic but instead they have to go out and earn it no matter who the better team is supposed to be. Their isn't a commitment up and down this organization. Zach Moss is not good enough for the goals this team has. They knew that when they signed him. When you keep non-impact players every year, like Drew Sample and Trayveon Williams, you see ZERO improvement. When you draft poorly you end up with busts and very average performances from average players. When you sign lower tier free agents you end up with average outcomes. Sometimes okay and sometimes not okay. Solid established NFL talent still doesn't want to come to Cincinnati apparently. Not guys like Hendrickson anymore. Draft picks hanging around and just not making progress to help get this team where it wants to go. When you hear defenders for example being identified in Pittsburgh you often hear "All Pro" in front of their name(s). You rarely hear that with players in Bengals uniforms. The Steelers do not have higher selections, they are just MUCH BETTER at it. It is that simple. Plenty of really good running backs on the market this past off-season to just hand the reigns to Moss, two years at 8 million. Is that commitment? Rankin is not an upgrade to Reader. Gesicki doesn't appear to be an upgrade. You don't excel with fan favorites either, Vonn Bell. If draft picks can't play they can't contribute. If draft picks are average and kept around for three-four years NOTHING improves. After Chase and Higgins at WR, I literally see NOTHING that follows but low tier talent. Iovias, Irwin, Burton, Jones all equal what Trayveon Williams and when healthy Chris Evans equalled at RB, NOTHING. No impact. All those draft picks in the secondary for the eventual loss of Jesse Bates, none are stepping up. Offensive line, mostly the same as a year ago, no impact. Failure to be SMART and AGGRESSIVE in seeking bonafide talent. Settling for average talent and over advertising it like it is way better than it REALLY IN FACT is. It ALL comes back to the same thing "NOT GOOD ENOUGH." But you can always ACT like you are good enough. At least until it has to be proven. Wake up every Bengals fan, this is NOTHING NEW. You have been treated to this crap for years. Zac Taylor does not have to endure all the failures the Marvin Lewis tenure established over 16 years. He just has to smile and do his Zac dodging at each post game.
Just gonna get worse when Burrow, I mean Slim Shady goes down again with the next injury. I think he should try out for the U.S. flag football team and head to the Olympics.
Let's be honest. We'll start with the new O.C. 1. The Bengals are cheap. Everyone in the NFL knows that. So when your OC leaves, you don't go out and hire a good one. You "promote from within" meaning you elevate someone who you don't have to pay much. 2. Zach Moss is not a power runner. Unless the OL is really blowing up the DL he's not going to do much between the tackles. 3. Where is Chase Brown? 4. Is Charlie Jones really NFL caliber? 5. Sam Hubbard doesn't start on any other NFL team. 6. Sitting starters for all of preaseason is a mistake. Guys are getting hurt anyway. Team should spend the first days of training camp running and stretching.
They got exposed, flat out. PFF's recap laid it out. Teams won't get beat deep by them (i.e. Chase), especially with Higgins rarely available. Irwin, Chuck Jones, Hudson, Gesicki, Iosivas....they're not scaring Opposing Ds with the little dink and dunks to them. Chase Brown has the speed but didn't do much yesterday in limited reps. This isn't 2021. They need to improvise and adapt like better teams do. They'll get thumped by their own division again because they all play like NE did yesterday but with much better rosters. As for our run d , don't get me started. Pathetic. Brissetr 4 back breaking scrambles for 34 yards is unacceptable.
Bills, Chiefs, Detroit, Eagles aren’t taking these steps backwards. I feel like a broken record but ownership has to be held responsible for as always doing the absolute minimum and allowing the off season to be nothing but drama. You sold the stadium name please completely go away and sell.
It was AWFUL to watch. Absolutely 100% not ready to play an NFL football game. BRUTAL

The fuck does jamarr getting paid have to do with Charlie Jones being a shitty returner. Or gisecki and Hudson loosing balls. Or burrow playing like a chicken or the right side of O line not blocking worth shyt? Or the defense not tackling?
@@craigharris41 correction. Defense held one of the worst offenses in the league to 16 points. While a career backup journeyman QB picked them apart and their RB ran for over 100 yards at will.
Was that the preseason team, or the regular season team? It was both. The regular season team is unclear, because none of those guys were in regular season mode, because they didn't play any preseason games. The preseason is to get these guys in shape for the regular season. The Bengals wasted the preseason, and it's definitely going to show in their regular season play. As we all witnessed last Sunday.
Thank you James! Yes Zac shouldn’t have punted on that last possession. Boneheaded call considering the defenses inability to stop the run.
Burrow needs to play more in the preseason. Bc he starts terrible every single year, thankfully he gets better as the year goes
preach
Good points but these games on top of injuries and you look up 4 games behind the league is to competitive!! He hasn’t played well in a while but his name is top 3 mentioned 😢
Look at last year's San Francisco game. He played well then. He just hasn't played well since he got injured again@@tamera3328
@natej84 continue with those Joe Burrows excuses. He's getting older taking more hits and injury prone and soon to be 0-2.
Unfortunately,the head coach,is too stupid,to figure that out.
We are definitely not winning next week
The fumbles, the forgetting how to tackle, the playcalling, whoever calls a two yard play on 3rd down with 4 or 5 yards to go is a problem. Tanner hudson was a damn problem. The jamarr chase not practicing was a problem. Boils down to zac taylor
Can we please start the talks with firing Taylor
Zac Taylor needs to give up play calling duties
Never going to happen.
Burrow changes plays at the line.. Unless you know the exact plays Burrow is checking out of I'm not sure how you make that comment.
@@melod7670 you think he changes every play or even a majority?? Stoppp
@@mercado4life188 Sorry I didn't know you were on the field..
Didn’t realize Zach Taylor fumbled the ball
I suspect his wrist was bothering Joe a bit either during or shortly after the first preseason game. This is the main reason why Zac didn't have him play in anymore preseason games. He wanted to let it have more time to heal and to minimize the opportunity of getting seriously injured. I think Joe knew right then that he was going to be in trouble very possibly for the season and for sure if he didn't give it more rest. But he always fights through stuff till the bitter end (honestly the fight in him to something to be 100% admired, i think it's what everyone loves most about him, but it's also to his own detriment) No doubt, the others starters were kept primarily out of the remaining preseason games because Joe wasn't going to be in.. which the obvious pattern = slow start. I can understand everyone's sense of frustration like.. we've been down this road and we're suffering from extreme ptsd because of where we're afraid it might lead. Let's just hope we're overreacting a bit and that we really are quite a bit better than this.. we almost have to be better.. right? Lol
I feel the same. During that Chicago joint practice his style wasn't the same. Everyone kept writing it off as that's Joe wants to work on but all honesty how he played was how he's been practicing the last month. I hope we can rely on the run game to take pressure off him. It maybe like the calf 2.0
Look up the surgery he had, he may be toast. Recovery numbers are not the greatest... Also zac taylor is not a head coach. He will never be one again once he leaves this job. Unfortunately bengals won't win either until there is a real leader as a head coach
Probably because the patriots will only win one game
@@B_Clemidk if he’s toast. That ball he threw to Geseki was a dime he just didn’t complete the catch. I agree though something ain’t right
With Amarius Mims coming back,jumbo 6 lineman with 12 personnel formation should help the running game this week. Establish the run,then the passing game will develop along the way.
My wife just yelled that you're not allowed to dance again until we win a game.
Fabulous show gentlemen. Sans is always strong. Am now wondering or realizing 2 things.. 1) Chase saga missing reps with Joe very likely affected that last drive...2) is joe fully healed to throw downfield or perhaps is he lacking full confidence in wrist to let er rip.....very troubling.
I've got to hand it to you guys for tackling this topis: What happened with this disastrous game!
13 missed tackles, poor coaching, lack of production from recievers, burrow throwing only 5 yard passes, and a key turnover by hudson is my guesses.
Hudson.*
Or just accept the pats d is legit and the bengals aren’t as good as you think 😭🥲😂
Is there any thought that we want with a simplified version of our offense to put out a specific film for the Chiefs?
Things like not running the ball under center -> run under center against chiefs?
Only run in pistol -> more play action or RPO in pistol against chiefs?
No, they just suck.
@@Truthteller01 i don’t know if you’ve been around these parts for the last few years but doubting burrow and this team to not have a good season is just nonsense
@@JerryGerry513 I didn't speak to the SEASON. I SAID what I said, however.
@@Truthteller01 they sucked on Sunday thats fair. But we’re fine my guy - the injuries haven’t helped but good teams overcome that
"Film breakdown" with no film
I don't think Burrow is a top 3 or 5 guy. While he can look like a top 1-2 guy sometimes for brief periods he's also quite capable of looking like the worst QB in the league quite often. He is massively overrated. Top 7 would be the ceiling for him when we look at his body of work overall.
Burrow is not good
Jake Browning proved it
Literally the only bright spot to me was the new punter. Dude sendin them suckers
Sorry but we can't, as bengals fans, put this on the defense. 1st game and they keep having to go right back out there because the offense keeps going 3 and out!?!? And still hold them to 16 points after that plus the turnovers!?!? The defense looked better after that first N.E scoring drive but the offense made them be on the field way too much in short spurts
I saw a comment on an unbiased football site with this question: "How long is Bengal Ownership going to put up with these Slow Starts by Head Coach Zac Taylor?" I have defended Taylor in the past considering he took the team to the Super Bowl and AFC Championship. BUT there are games where the team looks unprepared and not ready to go... Last season after the team made a nice run to get into playoff contention without Burrow. The team had all the big Mo and didn't show up in Pittsburgh costing the team a playoff spot. Reasonably you have to assume there is a good chance the team loses in Kansas City. Starting 0-2 puts the team in a hole once again.
I went to Kroger yesterday.... Saw Joey Ossai's pic plastered all over the Milk cartons.
Anyone complaining about play calling I hope realizes that Burrow can check out of plays at the line. Unless you know what plays he is checking out of I don't know how you can comment on play calling..
As bad as Burrow played,they still could have won,had the turnovers,not happened.
Long show if we go over everything that went wrong
3 turnovers, bad play by Alex Cappa and O line as a unit, Chase was too busy holding rather than getting open and D couldn’t stop the run game. We couldn’t convert third downs and keep drives alive. The end.
…Burrow not seeing open receivers. Bad play calls by coaches. Horrible tackling…
Looks like Burrow is slowly checking out of the team. Don't be surprised if he pulls a Carson Palmer in the end
The Bengals need to open the playbook more their plays are getting too predictable.
Although we didn’t look ready overall. I’m not going to week 1 overreact. We need Tee and Ja’Marr to play/lock in. I’m okay with conservative play calling offensively. Burrows health is all that matters!! WHO DEY 🐅
The more I am seeing about how short we were throwing the ball. And the stuff about Joe Burrow favoring the hand. And putting on a glove. Has he reinjuried to any degree? Oh. This isn't Cleveland. We don't wear orange pants. Guess we do. Bad juju
He's almost definitely dealing with some inflammation in his wrist that is expected for up to a year after the surgery he had.
@@cmonkey3698 Thanks
I just want to mention something that everybody seems to be overlooking here. The one bright spot for NE throughout all of last season was their defense. They had a good defense last year and they have a good defense again this year.
I'll give some credit to the Patriots, but c'mon without the turnovers the Bengals would have put up at least 27 points on that defense because they lost 10-14 points off the inexcusable turnovers.
Burrow also should have thrown to Yoshi, or Chase on the last drive for a wide open TD, but he didn't have enough trust to let the play develop downfield, which is uncharacteristic for him. The Bengals really gave up 6 points to them truly and no touchdowns. It was 2 field goals.
The missed tackling with the run game, which lets face it Stevenson is still running. Why did Lou send so many to drop in coverage? That was a complete waste of time. Everyone and their mother knew the Patriots were going to exclusively run, so load the boxes and tackle. It really shouldn't be that hard to tackle when the Patriots are predictable and one dimensional to kill you by running the ball down your throat. It's pathetic that 11 people can't tackle one person the entire game.
The Bengals also get so hellbent on tackling to force a turnover with a punch of the ball instead of just tackling to squash the yards after contact. Stevenson had all but 4 of his rushing yards after contact, which is inexplicable. CTB also got dragged for like 8 yards on the last run play of the game by Stevenson. That is atrocious and the Bengaks should not have allowed themselves to be manhandled/bullied like that.
@@allisondecker1918hopefully Kris Jenkins plays soon and helps that run defense.
@heathswinson6506 I don't know if Jenkins is the answer. Hopefully he is, but based off of the preseason, Jenkins really didn't make that much of an impact against backup players. Of course McKinnley Jackson also got hurt, so essentially the two players that we drafted to supposedly replace Reader and stop the run are both injured.
I don't know we may have to try and bring in someone off the waiver wire. It really can't get much worse than what we already have. Golly I can't take another one of our top players that we refuse to pay and let walk scott free without any draft compensation/adequate replacement mess up the entire season.
Refusing to bring back Reader may bite us in the long run. Knowing that run support was one of your biggest weaknesses, it's mind boggling to think that two draft picks in the second and third rounds are going to be a savior solely responsible for stopping the run. That's just not realistic.
I know that the run defense was pitiful even with Reader until he got hurt at the end of the season, but I'm convinced Reader struggled prior to the injury as a result of the safety, corner and LB duo being atrocious from miscommunicated assignments, busted coverages and alignments.
@@allisondecker1918 “Bengals would’ve put up 27 points if the patriots defense didn’t bully them into submission”
Fixed it for ya. The pats defense is a top 10 unit. They were last year & they will be again this year.
@@IEdjumacate Top 10 unit. I don't know about that. You lost Matthew Judon and Christian. Prayers for Christian that he recovers from the blood clots.
The Patriots deserve some credit for the turnovers, but c'mon that is just 2 costly self inflicted careless turnovers that is more of a byproduct of a lack of ball security and focus then 2 great defensive plays. Props to you that you made us pay for our lack of execution and preparation. Those 10 turnover points gave you the win because outside of that your offense was all Stevenson, which is utterly ridiculous that 11 people couldn't load the boxes and tackle him.
All but 4 of his yards came after contact, so if we tackled him your offense would have been held to essentially nothing. Even with all the running yards given up, your offense scored 6 points, which is the concern going forward.
I do agree with you that your defense can keep them within the games, but 6 points from your offense is going to be really hard to stack up wins. Please beat the Bills and Dolphins. Hopefully you can get more wins than the Panthers and Giants.
Zac failed this team from a coaching standpoint. He was outcoached by a rookie head coach in his first game. That is inexcusable. The play calling scheme needed to be two dimensional and less predictable. The O line couldn't pass protect, or run block, which led to no run game, short passes at, or behind the line of scrimmage and no time for plays to develop downfield coupled with penalties, a dropped interception from Jacoby and the turnovers hence why you lost to an inferior team from an overall roster standpoint.
Is it to early to think about the 2025 draft
What do we need?
Literally just feed Chase. He’d literally be looked at as the undisputed best receiver if you constant fed him the ball instead of only throwing him Go routes and receiver screens. I feel he’s the only receiver in the Top 5 where they actively feed him sparingly
Is zt the coach or burrow the coach make his ass do under center -run the ball get the playaction going, protect burrow get the defense out of two high - it all works together but we simply refuse
He can't work from under center. It's pathetic. I can't believe we paid this guy what we did. Truly wild
👏👏👏
Our line is nit good enough to run the ball fire frank.
Browning did better getting explosive plays last year than Joe. Seems like he missing a lot of reads, and or hesitating. Let it fly Joe! Also play calling still sucks, wish Zac would give it up and focus on getting the players dry and in game decisions.
Defenses play each QB different. Burrow gets a lot of cover 2 which limits big plays
I'm usually overly optimistic and think our fans overreact about a lot but we look soft af.
I think Joe Burrow is so use to having constant pressure he's not taking his time and going through his reads like he should because he's just assuming he doesn't have any time to do so.. I think that's part of it.
I’m almost glad that burrow is largely to blame because you know that’s a dude that’s gonna figure it out. WHO DEY
James you can’t say the Patriots offense stinks due to the fact they just made the Bengals look like a high school football team…. That’s kinda dumb
Offensive line was terrible at start. Dax Hill takes bad angles and missed two tackles he can't afford to miss. Play calling should have more runs early instead of late in the game when your fighting the clock.
Did anyone watch the San Francisco game tonight? That is how an offense should look out of the gate.
The 49ers,have arguably, the best team in the NFL.
Yes, let's 2nd guess the pro QB with no protection and 3rd string weapons. Skip the offensive line of the non-existent defensive lines, no problems there LOL
For the love of God trade to beef up the interior D-line to ADD to what you have.
They need a Chris Jones type player. To me that's the missing piece. I like Rankins. They need more power on the interior d-line.
Honest to christ 9 guys in the box and they still can't tackle or stop the run. Panic button pressed. They don't have enough personnel. I don't wanna hear superbowl until they can stop the run. PERIOD.
1. Joe Mixon has 30 carries 159 yds
2. We don't play action boot.
3. We don't use multiple TE sets , which create extra gaps for defense to defend. Look what NE did for us?
4. Horrible play calling.
5. Spread offense QBs don't fair well in NFL, and either do spread offenses.
6. Get Joe out of pocket
7. Get Joe under center
8. Browning offensive scheme last year would aiut Joe.
9. Use a lead blocker.
10. They have nice TEs.who can get in stance and flex out and be wr type players. Use them for both.
11. I haven't discussed the horrible tackling.
It's on coach.
Maybe Zac didn’t go for it on that last 4th down because he thought something was up with Joe after that 3rd down play
Insane that they thought they could throw burrow into the season with no preseason work. Especially against the Pats defense. Thrown right into the wolves. Burrow looked like Mac Jones
I wonder… If the ownership finally going to realize that the extra noise of not paying Jamar leads to disctractions on the team?
The fuck does jamarr getting paid have to do with Charlie Jones being a shitty returner. Or gisecki and Hudson loosing balls. Or burrow playing like a chicken or the right side of O line not blocking worth shyt? Or the defense not tackling?
Ever wonder.... if Jamarr should shut up and play. He is already getting paid. He is the noise that's caused the distraction
@gregbertsch2853 if they can't play football because jamarr hasn't practiced. Then they need to question themselves as men
@@frankystrings Agree.
Uh,Jamar has a contract.There are 2 years remaining on said contract.So him not getting paid is a lie.
They better get their shit together they play KC next week
LOL! They have zero,chance of beating the Chiefs,playing like they did against the Patriots.
I still think that they didn't get the right d-tackle in the draft & in free agency. They needed a 'bell cow' type of rb. Has the window closed?
I wonder how joe mixon the bell cow did yday
We don't know both of them are injured
I can't say everything went wrong but just enough did
We may be 0-4 quickly.
Why wasn't Burton playing more at least if anything to take pressure off? Chase to get his safeties to move
Yep 12 man is their best line up.
I also think that they need to start with more 2TE
I don’t get it either you would think they are sick of hearing this and do something to fix it.
Crazy part is Burrow was this bad but we are still
14-13 if Hudson doesn’t fumble
Also Charlie turned into a bum after his fumble
His next return he let a ball bounce that he should’ve fielded.
There is an old saying."Turn the ball over.And you lose." Simple as that.
I am 51 and seen ALL of this before. The Bengals have a culture of losing, and it's the ownership. Nothing will ever change as long as the Brown family are involved with this team. They are rotten from the top down, and promising talent comes to Cincinnati to die here. I have grown to just instinctively root against them. I have no idea how they sell out games every year.
Does Jamar deserve some blame for holding out? Lack of reps/trust clearly evident. With Tee going down, it was so unsurprising to see Burrow struggle.
Is there any weight to the theory that Burrow is dragging his feet while the Bengals fail to reach an agreement with his college teammate?
No.
My take is Joe B. is only human and he was scared. First really scary snaps and he has so much pressure riding on his young self, it's crazy. Plus drama with Ja'Marr hitting the news doesn't help. But I smell a lil racism - Ja'Marr Chase is a huge talent in his own right and yet he gets overshadowed by his buddy Joe B. Bengals office, get your crap together and settle these contracts before the season goes completely off the rails. I wouldn't risk my body and health for no contract. Ja'Marr is smart.
As much as Joe ignored Jamarr, I’d say he was taking the off season out on him
I miss the bilt bar ads
Time for wind sprints at the end of practice until they can win a game
Hey bengals looked bad even worse first game last year..
Progress
Any chance they were playing vanilla against the Pats because they thought could win that way and save stuff for the Chiefs?
Trent Brown got beat like a 🥁 most of the game.
Let’s be real, bengals aren’t built to play in September they’re built to play in February 😤
We don't throw deep enough, we don't stay with the run, running backs will never have a 100 yard game, they are not given enough carries, somebody tell me why we don't throw deep on the first or second series of the game...
They always want go 10 plays or more to get down the field....WHY.....
ARE WE EVER GOING TO SEE , AH, ONE PASS , TOUCHDOWN, EARLY ??????
Taylor would much rather play the safe game and run the quick pass for every play and waste a bunch of time just to get down the field. When we did throw down the field to Chase, we were able to move down the field with ease that whole possession and do the run game and lo and behold; we scored a touchdown. I don't know why they want to run so many plays behind the line of scrimmage or do quick 2-3 yard completions, that only works for a few times. We need more variation, our OL needs to prove to Joe that they can protect him and maybe he will consider doing different types of play schemes besides just shotgun; we are really limited in the amount of plays when we just play gun all game. We lose yardage since we don't throw it down the field, it's an extra 3 yards we lose from gun formation
Taylor should stick to being HC and not call plays, he plays the game too safe and it costs us many games because of it. There's a time and place to play the game safe, but when it comes down to NEED to risk plays, we play it safe and lose. Just like with the 4th and 5 punt; we could of had a first down using some type of trickery and then had a chance to go down field while running the clock and score to take the lead, that's what 2021 Bengals would have done. Our team can't keep playing scared ball
They went to 2 AFC championship games recently.The same person has been calling the plays for 5 years.
Three words you can use "not good enough." Any attempts to improve areas deficient a year ago are showing zero promise thus far. Start talking facts and not references like "slow start" or "lack of playing time in preseason." The fear is the running game is not improved. This has an undeniable effect on the passing game as the opposing defense loads up and just keeps everything in front of them. Limits the chances for any big plays downfield. The Bengals defense vs. the run is not improved. Their pursuit is being used against them. This creates holes, if they are filling holes, poor tackling is the culprit. This is simply why Gesicki could not hold his endzone reception, LACK of TOUGHNESS. Not mentally or physically tough. Their attitude indicates assumptions they are making that it is automatic but instead they have to go out and earn it no matter who the better team is supposed to be. Their isn't a commitment up and down this organization. Zach Moss is not good enough for the goals this team has. They knew that when they signed him. When you keep non-impact players every year, like Drew Sample and Trayveon Williams, you see ZERO improvement. When you draft poorly you end up with busts and very average performances from average players. When you sign lower tier free agents you end up with average outcomes. Sometimes okay and sometimes not okay. Solid established NFL talent still doesn't want to come to Cincinnati apparently. Not guys like Hendrickson anymore. Draft picks hanging around and just not making progress to help get this team where it wants to go. When you hear defenders for example being identified in Pittsburgh you often hear "All Pro" in front of their name(s). You rarely hear that with players in Bengals uniforms. The Steelers do not have higher selections, they are just MUCH BETTER at it. It is that simple. Plenty of really good running backs on the market this past off-season to just hand the reigns to Moss, two years at 8 million. Is that commitment? Rankin is not an upgrade to Reader. Gesicki doesn't appear to be an upgrade. You don't excel with fan favorites either, Vonn Bell. If draft picks can't play they can't contribute. If draft picks are average and kept around for three-four years NOTHING improves. After Chase and Higgins at WR, I literally see NOTHING that follows but low tier talent. Iovias, Irwin, Burton, Jones all equal what Trayveon Williams and when healthy Chris Evans equalled at RB, NOTHING. No impact. All those draft picks in the secondary for the eventual loss of Jesse Bates, none are stepping up. Offensive line, mostly the same as a year ago, no impact. Failure to be SMART and AGGRESSIVE in seeking bonafide talent. Settling for average talent and over advertising it like it is way better than it REALLY IN FACT is. It ALL comes back to the same thing "NOT GOOD ENOUGH." But you can always ACT like you are good enough. At least until it has to be proven. Wake up every Bengals fan, this is NOTHING NEW. You have been treated to this crap for years. Zac Taylor does not have to endure all the failures the Marvin Lewis tenure established over 16 years. He just has to smile and do his Zac dodging at each post game.
Dishonest to call this a "FILM BREAKDOWN" when you don't show any FILM.
Dan pitcher and zac are 2.0 of zac and calhoun. Our offense needs to lineup under center more. In shot gun all the time is too predictable
Also add ... They seem to have negative locker room chemistry after watching video interviews
Dax Hill needs to practice his tackling. It’s embarrassing how he slides off the player every time
The bengals always do the opposite of what we expect. Watch us beat the chiefs 🫢
Just gonna get worse when Burrow, I mean Slim Shady goes down again with the next injury. I think he should try out for the U.S. flag football team and head to the Olympics.
I’m glad he mentioned Joe not even looking at Chase and hit the underneath guy. If you watch the replay Chase is wide open! WTF?!!!!
It's ja'marrs punishment for the off-season. You can't be arguing for a big payday if you don't get a chance to make big plays.
About to get stomped by KC
If they play like they did in week one.Agree.It could be 49 to notthing
Joe's wrist has not healed
Excvuses excuses.
We have to run the football..
Bengals won’t make playoffs
It was dreadful. Pitiful. I don't want to watch it again kinda bad.
Let's be honest. We'll start with the new O.C.
1. The Bengals are cheap. Everyone in the NFL knows that. So when your OC leaves, you don't go out and hire a good one. You "promote from within" meaning you elevate someone who you don't have to pay much.
2. Zach Moss is not a power runner. Unless the OL is really blowing up the DL he's not going to do much between the tackles.
3. Where is Chase Brown?
4. Is Charlie Jones really NFL caliber?
5. Sam Hubbard doesn't start on any other NFL team.
6. Sitting starters for all of preaseason is a mistake. Guys are getting hurt anyway. Team should spend the first days of training camp running and stretching.
They got exposed, flat out. PFF's recap laid it out. Teams won't get beat deep by them (i.e. Chase), especially with Higgins rarely available. Irwin, Chuck Jones, Hudson, Gesicki, Iosivas....they're not scaring Opposing Ds with the little dink and dunks to them. Chase Brown has the speed but didn't do much yesterday in limited reps. This isn't 2021. They need to improvise and adapt like better teams do. They'll get thumped by their own division again because they all play like NE did yesterday but with much better rosters. As for our run d , don't get me started. Pathetic. Brissetr 4 back breaking scrambles for 34 yards is unacceptable.
Wasted a lot of money to make that game from Chicago. EveryDay’r!
Damn bro
The Cincinnati Hawkeyes
Get under center
Bills, Chiefs, Detroit, Eagles aren’t taking these steps backwards. I feel like a broken record but ownership has to be held responsible for as always doing the absolute minimum and allowing the off season to be nothing but drama. You sold the stadium name please completely go away and sell.
Rumors joe taking a fall this season for betting debt ?
They need to restructure or cut Hubbard next season 10 million in dead cap.
While watching the Bengals game I kept repeating "What a Shit show!"
