  1. It was pretty obvious real time.

    I had high hopes for D. Knight but that guy takes some of the worst angles I’ve ever seen an NFL LB take while also missing a substantial amount of his tackles when he gets in position.

    We know Zac is a loser who will blow the game when given the opportunity so you have to blame the players here. Zac delivered to his expectations.

  2. I don’t think Brian Flores can save this roster. Just have to accept the fact that they missed so many draft picks.

    They fired Lou because he doesn’t like playing the younger guys. They hired Golden who did amazing in ND developing young talents and we’re looking at the reason why Lou doesn’t like playing the Bengals young talents.

    Time to accept the fact it’s not just coaching. If the same guys responsible for the draft are still the same ones making those decisions next year, we’ll continue piling up misses on every draft.

  3. A run up the middle on 2 & 10 with 40 second left and 15 yds from FG range is the defining play of Zac Taylor’s HC career. Bad play call, bad clock mgmt, leaves everybody scratching their head.

  4. They all get blocked like they’re in a Pop-Warner league. Is everyone on our defense 140lbs?

  5. Oh it was 90’s level, Benny hill music bad. Could not believe what I was seeing. There was a TD run I believe, where someone took an angle that seemed like it’d be against every instinct to do. Just horrible.

  6. The angles taken in pursuit is absolutely atrocious. No anticipation of where the ball carrier WILL be, but rather straight at them as where they are currently.

  7. Battle pulling up on that blitz…😖😖😖

    This immediately made me think of the Jayden Daniels play in the preseason. What’s his deal? Is he that afraid of touching the quarterback?

  8. Best thing to do is give up on this team, and occupy your life with more meaningful pursuits. They just arent worth it

  9. You have literally no idea what you’re talking about at all. I am not saying I disagree that they were bad plays, but you have no idea why. Like literally no clue. First play, Shemar stewart gets too far into the backfield, he reads pass and didn’t check for the run. He should have stopped at heels depth and gotten lateral which would have sent the runner more flat and kept him running and not giving him a chance to cut up, second is they didn’t set an edge on the outside, had they done that he would have had to come back inward and there would have been a linebacker and a DE (Stewart) trailing the play and making the tackle, you’re right it’s a bad play, but don’t have any idea why.

    Next play, too many of the players decide to force the throw, a rolling out QB puts a single linebacker in no man’s land when there is a player going up the field behind him, this isn’t the case here, there are is plenty of help behind the trailing line backers, Knight in this case, and he could have taken an angle to the pylon and made the play, not tackling, just bad angles.

    3rd play, there are NOT 3 players surrounding this guy, there are 2 DBs who should be tackling him in a completely different way, the name of this tackle is eluding me for some reason, but they should both have closed shoulder to shoulder in a V (that might be the name) and both had their hips and front legs making a V to force the runner into a funnel or make him go laterally and that player makes the tackle, it’s an easy technique, but yes, this is bad tackling, but not for the reason you think. Oh, it’s a Vice tackle. With Turner over shooting that and THEN not giving additional effort and just standing there, that’s your issue.

    4th play, where Jamar and Tee are has nothing to do with this, what actually happens here is the back makes a poor decision, don’t remember if it was Smaj or Chase, makes a poor read and rather than cutting off Orlando’s butt he chooses to power it, had he made that jump cut to the outside the play goes for many yards, at least 7. Again, no clue what you’re talking about.

    5th play, trick plays are just that. Tricks. What do you do in this case? You pursue the back and you stay in coverage. They pursued the back and they stayed in coverage, what was the issue here? Offense executed and when that happens you sometimes lose. And the catch was excellent, tall guy on short guy and the ball was placed where it was. Did the Bengals lose the play? Yes, but not because they did it “wrong”

    6th play, you are showing a bubble that is literally being blown up by the Bengals DBs and the pass rush did what it was supposed to do. Can I argue with the stats? Nope, but this is well executed and the result is good.

    Last play, I can’t really see what happened in coverage, but it was a 50 50 ball that ended up in their hands… I have nothing to say on that one.

    Learn football before you come at the team.

  10. Are we officially at the point where we can see Battle on that last highlight and just kinda laugh?

  11. I’m the Bengals defense when I play defense in Madden. I miss easy sacks, interceptions, and tackles.

  12. Do I have to be the one that actually says it? Number one and two on the “Top Worst plays” list aren’t actually plays

  13. This is what happens with scripted football lol. Everyone blames the coaches the refs the plays the fans the food the gas.. but nobody blames the Freemasons who literally made the sport and script the sport behind Masonic gematria and rituals.

  14. if you’re going to go through the game you should look how many butt naked wide open receivers there were and flacco never looked at them because he only makes 1 read.

  15. Wasn’t able to watch the second half, this is the first time I’ve seen the highlights….

    Are all their gloves covered in KY? They should all go do some rugby tackle training, this is just silly.

  16. Shemar Stewart, the first round draft pick and player who Bengals fans keep making excuses for, has only tackle all season. He terrible at tackling in college with very few sacks, but fans said “ignore all that”.

    Fans also said fire Lou! Its all his fault! Lou’s gone on to improve the Colts defense while the Bengal’s defense is a lot worse (something that seemed impossible).
