Official Cincinnati Bengals Game Day Thread

[Pugger]

Jones was excellent. I also enjoyed listening to Tony Romo - far superior to Aikman and the clown he teams with.

Permit me to say I was wrong when I said the Packers O Line was so bad that it didn't make much different if several starters were hurt. Well, it dig make a difference. They managed to did up Murphy and McCray who were painfully worse. Just the same, Aaron Rodgers proved again that no matter how shitty our O Line is, he can dodge the pass rush to get the job done - most of the time.

Allison was excellent at times too. Kendrick, after doing basically nothing the entire preseason and regular season, actually showed up. King wasn't as good as last week, but he was decent part of the time. Was Clinton-Dix even in the game in the second half? I sure didn't notice him. Martinez finally is starting to look like a keeper too.

The line isn't bad but losing our tackles is what is killing this offense right now. Only a superior QB like Rodgers is going to able to do anything under that kind of pressure. Can you imagine Brady trying to function behind the line as it is right now?

Maybe the communication failure was on Jones, but the actual coverage belonged to Burnett and he just botched it.

End zone play?

I think it was Martinez who should have taken it.

[Pugger]

I think the game is slowing down for Martinez. Jones seems to be a natural. Great draft selection.

King had a decent game too seeing he had to go up against AJ Green.

Agreed.

P.S. Did you suffer any damage from the hurricane?

Here is 'the Big Picture and this awesome game and Packer 'W'.

The Games Stat's are here as well.

I thought that the Team of Nace and Romo brought a lot to this game. Tony Romo deserves a Big Raise already;he has it !

I would take Romo and Nance over Aikman and Buck any day of the week.

Yes and that's a difficult assignment for a Rookie.

Also Pugger how did Hurricane Irma affect you? I hope not badly.

[hoosier]

When, if ever, was the last time the Packers won a game they had never led up until the last play of the game?

I dunno, but I loved it.

In a minor "one of a kind quirk" both punters had 6 punts for 296 yards.

Both teams also had stars born. Jones appears to be a special guy as does Mixon, the Cincy RB.

Woody, we were very fortunate indeed. Some homes around us had some cosmetic damage and a lot trees fell. The eye of the storm went just east of us so we escaped the brunt of Irma's fury.

Cincy RB Joe Mixon had a solid game with 101 combined yards. 62 yards Rushing and 39 Receiving.

[bobblehead]

Josh Jones had 11 unassisted tackles, 2 sacks, 3 tackles for loss, 2 QB hurries

I saw 2 mistakes. I can live with them if he puts up that stat line.

[ThunderDan]

I don't think I could have come up with this if I tried, and it's a perfect line for today.

Autocorrect on a smart phone. Didn't have my readers to check if it was right or not.

BTW, might Jones take Burnett's starting job?

Little early for that. Is Dix hurt? If he is, Jones would work into that spot quickly.

[call_me_ishmael]

Jones is a LB. He won't take Burnett's spot. He's the start MLB though.

[Harlan Huckleby]

After thinking about it, replacing Burnett's experience is ridiculous idea. And ya, Jones'd be a strong safety. Replacing Ha Ha is out of question too.

Blake Martinez 6-2 237
Joe Thomas 6-1 227
Josh Jones 6-2 220
HaHa 6-1 208
Morgan Burnet 6-1 209

Jones is a tweener, but looks more like a lanky safety to me

Seems like Jones needs to be on field every down

[Zool]

If anything Jones will take over the Nitro MLB spot and send Burnett back to safety. That will be a bit though. Rook has some growing to do. He looks the part so far.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Kam Chancellor is a really big safety at 6-3 225.

Rookie, shmookie. Let Josh Jones grow into a starting job right away.

Harrison Smith was stud for Vikes as rookie. Ha ha started as rookie, right?

Probably this only happens with an injury.
