Well no matter what the Bengals will go for it on 4th down

[CircleTheWagons99]

Why are they trying to run so much?

 

They fear soft zones and wide open spaces.

[PonyBoy]

Uh oh 3rd & long...

[DuckyBoys]

we call time out to remind the D to let them convert underneath?

Terrel Bernard sadly should lose his job.  Shaq is playing way too good 

He's a real linebacker. If we had Milano in his prime, they'd be one of the best duos in the league.

Did they really just do the lame "IT'S THIRD DOWN!!!!!!!!!" instead of the train whistle?

The whole league does it.  Wonder why?  It is annoying.

Let's see if McD learned anything from the last drive.

I have no faith that he has

[zow2]

get a stop here we’re fine.

[nedboy7]

Jesus this board is having a rough quarter ha?  

[Stads]

Surely we'll stop this third and long, right?

[Blank Stare]

DBs better press here. Getting sick of giving them a free release and just stoping and turning to catch the ball. The defense is already on skates during this game having to react to an offense that knows where it’s going. Get up on them and disrupt that. Put them on skates.

Must stop 3rd down. Get off the field D. 

They were talking in camp about how important it was to improve on 3rd down defense.

[dave mcbride]

Am I a mere pessimist for assuming the Bengals probably convert here?

[LarryMadman]

The only way they get off the field on a 3rd down is if Cincy self destructs and they fail to execute, not because Buffalo stopped them

[BlueRed]

I like the 1st and 2nd down defense so far

Imagine if Josh had receivers?

Imagine if the Bills had a good head coach 😳 

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

The move to 45 and 58 was the best things that happened to this team. If we can just overcome the coach we might be ok

Time to play way behind the sticks.
