The Bengals out coached Buffalo on offense and defense. When the team falters Coach gets tight and reverts to his default—-timid plans and rigid adherence to stopping long passes. Meanwhile the Bengals threw fast and short and ran down our throat. Our offensive plan was too obsessed with 30 yard gains, no will to run, no willingness to change protections to help Josh succeed or get the ball out fast. This backyard ball is not an offense. What in the h@ll do they do all week? And please, this “we were spent”is such crap. Good coaching means adjusting to conditions as they are—-not some pre-conceived notion.
