Did the Cowboys lend them Jason Garrett as play caller for this game? That's often his M.O.

The refs also hurt the Cowboys when they blew the whistle on the kickoff return where Harris was in a pile, but never down. He was off and running again when the whistle blew. The play isn't reviewable since the whistle blew.

His forward progress was clearly stopped.

I'm not crazy about Garrett's playcalling, but the Cowboys o-line is terrible and the running game often non-existent. Although it's better when Murray is healthy. The Bengals have a decent o-line and the Cowboys are extremely weak up the middle right now with two NTs down and two guys off the street playing middle linebacker. Plus, Green Ellis was averaging like 7 yards per carry, and the Bengals had the lead.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

There was a point early in the 2nd quarter I believe that Brian Leonard was the RB for a series or more. It wasn't just 3 downs to spell BJGE rather about 10 plays. I thought BJGE was hurt at the time because Leonard isn't an answer at RB. BJGE eventually came back in but I wonder if he was hampered by something and that was why they didn't go to him more.

That said if AJ doesn't drop to balls in his hands its likely a 10+ point win for the Bengals. He dropped a sure TD and also dropped a 3rd down pass around the 30 yard line. Your talking about 7 points left on the field which would have made the Bengals 9 point lead a 16 point lead.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

The Bengals still control their own destiny, but oddly enough, the Philly game doesn't matter that much if Pittsburgh and the Jets win out. The Bengals will still need to take both the Steelers and the Ravens to get it.

They can't beat the Eagles, Pittsburgh, and then lose to the Ravens. Not if the Steelers or the Jets both end up 9-7. The Bengals would be on the outside looking in then. Same thing if the Bengals lose to the Eagles. If they beat the Steelers and Ravens, they are in even if the Jets win out.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

I'd feel a whole lot better about things if we came out and had a nice comfortable win tonight. Something to get us rolling again into the last two games.

With 10 days Marvin, Zim and Gruden need to put together a winner vs. Pittsburgh.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

It's going to be interesting to see how the Bengals start tonight, just four days after choking away the game against the Cowboys. They almost have to win out at this point, and definitely can't lose more than one.

Unfortunately I'm apparently not allowed to get upset about this BS.

Don't worry about it. It's not the same old Bengals. They are fine!

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

I always come back to the coaching with this team. I get that there young but at some point you can't keep making the same silly decisions. Team needs to grow up and hopefully over the next few quarters.

Brandon Tate continues to defy all logic as a return man. And they continue to run him out there.
