eh, we're 3-2, tied with the Super Bowl Champs. FORK I'll take it!

So, this is a close one. Without offensive weapons, this is how we're going to lose all year. Couldn't make plays when we had so many turnovers. This kind of loss is on Beane. That's why it is a half tank. The defense failed us on the last two drives by Cincinnati. The supposed strength of our team got outmuscled by a weak Bengals offensive line. Emotionally and mentally they did not get up for the Bengals. That's how you get out played physically. That's on McDermott. McDermott couldn't prepare his team to get up mentally and emotionally to face and beat a beatable Bengals team. Whereas a Belicheat would have. That's the difference between good coaching and great coaching. It isn't just X and Os. And folks, beating whom you're supposed to beat is what very good teams do. Winning games after emotional victories is what very good teams do. This is the next step this team, including the coaches, have to take. That's the progression we as fans need to be looking for. (Jaguars for instance, keep losing to bad teams this season, after having big wins vs strong opponents. And we're coincidentally, with identical records.). We'll get more opportunities for this in the coming weeks to see if they take the next step. (edit - copypasta from other thread as this post is more relevant for post-game).

I knew our secondary was our weakness, despite whatever the stats said in the first 4 weeks. That got exposed. I also knew we had some defensive speed issues. The Bengal's last run TD showed we lacked closing speed. Today we found out if McDermott is a coach who also mastered the mental and emotional preparation of a team. We played somewhat flat today. So he isn't.

Please, hate Dennison also.

Well, the clock's struck midnight folks! and we're back in raggy clothes. Have a good night!

Agree. Would you hire back Greg Roman or A. Lynn if he gets fired?

Bills D is already gone on bye-week.

I don't see a win right now. we don't got it.

where is the 2nd half adjustment we used to see from this coaching staff first 4 games.

Well, the half tank scheme is working. Defense is keeping game close, but offense can't capitalize on all the turnovers.

Our front 7 is losing to a **** offensive line. This is on the D. This is on McDermott.

Yeah man that's what I was asking earlier. the fork coz our secondary is banged up.

Man, AJ Green is going to be HOF from this game. I knew our corners weren't that great, and an elite WR is exposing them.

Man, where's our defensive speed?

I'm already feelign exhausted watching this game.

sigh.

man our D is keeping Bengals in the game despite them trying to give the game away.

wow the guy was WIDE OPENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Yeah that old ref... he misses a lot of stuff

yeah Jags leading. That's what I was talking about coaching. Marrone is a good coach, but he won't win championships .

the FORK man! backup TE injured too??? it's like football gods want Tyrod to fail.

me too! it's like I counted on the front 7 to protect the banged up secondary. So far they aren't getting it done! And this is a **** O line!

Geez, still NO PRESSURE ON DALTON!!!! GEEZ

Man it's gonna be like this all year isn't it. Tight games. Every flaw on our team exposed. Miss some opportunities we created.
