Team is not looking good so far. And I don't care what his numbers say burrow has not looked good.
Jones has been in the dog house and no irwin can't win period… Burton needs to get in there… they don't have the horses except with burton but people speculate while chase and burrow have come out and praised him before…
The coaching deficit on the offensive side of the ball is to much to overcome. It's just not realistic to think the Bengals are contenders at this point in the season.
It's the HC dude!!!!!!!!
We can't always say third option when you have teams like KC that don't even have a true number one!!!! Again it's the play calling!!!!!!😡😡😡. Dude sucks!!!
They need to get another running back asap. Zach Moss is not good.
They need to use the tight end more!!! Again it's the play calling!!!!!!
The reason why they need high-end receivers because they don't have a good play caller!!!
We don't have a good offensive coaching staff!!!!
Zac gets out coached on almost every game! He’s no Andy reed on play calling. Andy doesn’t run all basic plays all game. He even lets the players come up with some plays. Taylor’s play calls are plays you would take right out of the official nfl offense play book. He still hasn’t figured out how to beat cover 2 or just two high safeties. I guess hasn’t got to that chapter yet 😅
Y'all do realize you're saying the coaches don't know how to put nothing together!!! That's the problem!!!
Zach calls on stupid Flickr toss plays that be so freaking asinine!!!!!! Please fire him!!!!!
It painful to watch this offense for most of the time. It's painful because it's supposed to have outstanding offense players on this team. But you watch other teams offenses and they keep the defense guessing , but not our. Run twice and then throw it to Chase or Tee. And then they let up while ahead and hang on at the end.
Woulda coulda Shoulda. This team should be 6-1.
New England lost. I put that on Zach joey didn’t look himself and he just left him out there and instead of establishing the run doing screens draw plays I mean it was a joke.
All & Burton need to get more involved.
The BENGALS HAD ANOTHER PIECE TO THEIR OFFENSE… his name was Joe Mixon ; they let him go for nothing. Love to see Mixon behind this line with Chase Brown.
Front office has failed Burrow;”NEWS FLASH TEE HIGGINS IS GONE NEXT YEAR “ 😑
Zach gets away from the run to quickly.
Tee isn't gonna be here next year and thatll hurt if none of these other youngsters cannot step up
If andy Reid can win without a wide receiver and we need another WR when we have two #1s it just says everything about zac taylor
Why does Zac Taylor have Kendall Milton sitting on the PS bench? A former Georgia Bulldog standout, who is a north and south runner?
Nope because Chuck is a J.A.G Just a guy. In other words he's average. No yards after the catch. 😮
Let’s face it…Time to rebuild this Team
Quit beating around the bush, it’s the head coach holding this insane receiving corps back. It’s criminal Gesicki isn’t getting touches when he’s a proven guy to catch TD passes in the red zone. WTF is the issue with the redzone??? Milk toast play calling, when I see plays from the Chiefs, Lions, 49ers, Dolphins, I honestly can’t understand the lack of creative plays, and it seems like a lack of quick passes to start the game to help Burrow get a rhythm. And running it on 3rd and long….my brother in Christ, Burrow is the QB what is going on???
Let see how many of y’all keep this same negative energy when this team makes the playoffs.
I'm gonna need Burton to learn the playbook front to back and dominate in practice. That way the coaches can't keep him on the bench. Also plz use TE/Slot curls in the middle of the field vs zone, KC and Baltimore run those over and over and get chunks with it. Also the hurry up offense could be a weapon in this offense
We can't pick up a vet tackle bc we only have $18m in cap space left and Mike Brown needs to roll $15m over for next year and take the remaining $3m and give himself a Christmas bonus lol
We don’t have no trick plays, you can call the play that’s coming I do it every Sunday 😂😂😂na but for real we gotta mix it up🧡🖤Whodey let’s get the win..
They have to run the ball better. Look back at their high scoring games, it wasn't a lot of run plays but they were effective. And I'm not talking about the end of the game when the defense is selling out to stop the run (end of game situations).
