Rusty from the bye week? Were we focused on other areas during last week's practice? Did Bengals discover some weaknesses or tendencies? Did we have different guys playing key positions? It went from an area of strength to one that almost cost us the game.
to be excoriated for that Bengals TD drive. And it is not the 1st time he has done it. He never puts pressure on the QB late in a game or late in a half. He seems content to play a little prevent offense and allows the opposing team big chunks of yardage.
He makes a brilliant game plan, then doesn't get some addition pressure when he should.
Also, Colt McCoy running OB on that 2nd down after the fumble recover is a bonehead play cost them 40 seconds.
We have said it before - Garrett has to stop calling backwards or sideways plays in the Red Zone.
Would not ant to be in the Special Teams room this week - wow did the suck.
are games we have lost in the past. So, although it was ugly.. we have to embrace the fact that they pulled it out.
You think that's because of some measurable increase in talent/coaching or just a favorable dice roll? I think today could easily fall into the latter category.
RE: I agree that Peart should start. That was an ugly win against a bad
We are not exactly a "good" team. The analogy here is some not so good looking guy on a sports team message board sees a photo of a girl and starts criticizing her thumbs.
Jason Garrett was really upset over the Columbo firing.
That’s the only explanation for some of the play calls. Then when he made a decent play call, Cam Fleming acted like Cam Fleming.
Anyone who ever said they were better off with Colt McCoy was obviously out of their mind. I don’t know how Daniel Jones’ career will turn out, but it will definitely be better than Colt McCoy’s. Hopefully Danny can come back in 2 weeks.
When you lose to a team worse than you are, 3 things happened:
- penalties
- turnovers
- special teams
The Giants avoided one of them and barely held on.
which said a lot about the player and where this team is moving was the Shepard catch after falling. He never quit on the play and McCoy out the ball where it was supposed to be.
are not a good football team. Tons of mistakes and inexplicable play calling. Way too much running on first down after Jones was hurt.
KO for a TD.
Fumble by Engram.
Several near INTs by Alexander.
McCoy missing Lewis for a wide open TD.
McCoy running wide when all we should have down was run the ball into the line three times to force the Bengals to use another TO.
Three penalties by Fleming.
Dropped TD pass by Slayton.
Big PR right at the end of the game that put the Bengals at midfield.
Gallman, the OL, Shepard, and Jones played well. On defense, Williams, Lawrence, Tomlinson, Brown, Bradberry, Peppers, and Lalos were stand outs. Gano was also terrific as usual.
But we were lucky. Burrow would have killed us today. Allen clearly had no timing with his WRs.

So you're thinking Jason Garret intentionally called a bad game? As revenge?

MCCoy can make some throws and with a week of practice with the starters should be a little better performance. That said, he’s not the athlete that Jones is!

McCoy did what he needed to do, hold on to the football. He will be much better with a week of 1st team snaps. He got too excited on that flats pass over Lewis head.
No sorrows, always good to win.
Entertaining?? lol
Yes.
I'll take a win and hope any day.
Count me as one fantastical fan then Eric. This is a game not real life.
Officiating in this league is so poor and inconsistent
it was ugly but I will take it
we really need a better backup QB

I thought about you right when they made that call on Holmes
I sold out loud “Fatman is losing his shit right now”
In fairness I was losing my shit as well
Hope DJ is back in two weeks.
I took the red pill
Haha
Agreed. I don’t think it could get any worse at this point!

Btw? Did you really think Cincy was gonna lay down? We shut them down defensively as we expected.
