Cincinnati Bengals Start Slow AGAIN | Should Joe Burrow Play MORE in Preseason?

[@haroldgreen4416]

As a loyal Bengals fan since 1969,I've been absolutely thrilled to have Joe as the team's leader, but after our trip to the Super Bowl, I feel we've taken a step back. The new additions to the team have yet to prove we can return to the previous team. I'll never say we can't get back to the 22 team, but the thrill is gone if we continue to play as we did last Sunday. Let's go, Bengals! Let's get it!

[@lorenzosmith1231]

I would agree if we hadn’t beaten 49ers and bills last year, but those were very good teams and I genuinely think our offense will be better than that one we had last year, we just gotta clean up mistakes on both sides of ball

[@kane6529]

It makes me absolutely furious, I’d say Burrows performance is the most shocking thing. I’ve just grown to expect that killer instinct he’s always had and you would’ve never given him the ball with 2 minutes left and a chance to win and see a pitiful 3 and out! Let’s hope it changes this week I can’t stomach much more if this nonsense

[@kane6529]

[@SnoopyReads]

Why do fans state what year they started rooting for a team? Cincy has never won a Super Bowl so it's not like any of us are bandwagon fans

[@nicksttrs]

Yes there was no reason at all to start the players in preseason game 1 and sit them all out the next 2 weeks and then have 2 weeks in between till the start of the season. Its usually. Sit week 1 then play week 2 and more on week 3 and then regular season begins.

[@elmalloc]

@@DarkDefender1024 Punting on 4th and 5, putting your faith in an Anarumo defense that hasn't been good for years and was giving up 5 yards a run, and out of the hands of your 55 million QB. This removes confidence in your "you can't fucking zero me" QB. He is showing tactless decisions and an inability to motivate.

[@desmonddaly484]

Different personal formations. Utilize your guys skill sets and adjust and game plan to your opponents schemes. It’s a good amount of X’s and O’s. Run the plays. Get the guys going. Utilize your guys’ skill sets. Joe doesn’t need a bunch of preseason. But you can’t just rely on shotgun dink and dunk alone. Any good consistent high scoring offense, utilizes personnel groupings for their guys strengths. Period. Do it. Get it done. Joe, I’m sure he’s on board for that. That way, you get into rhythm. That way, when you want to shotgun deep drop sets, your guys have the confidence and ability to deliver cuz they’ve been rolling on your diverse offense. They got diverse skillsets, use them. Diversify. Don’t be afraid of how much you’re showing earlier in the season. Play to win. Play to improve. Do it. Dang it. They got the dang talent. Joe is still accurate. Joe can still sling. I’m sure Joe is down to get the offense rolling. Use two RBs on the field, line one up as a tight end and then get him into open space on a reverse. And if the defense sees that coming. Audibile. Get creative and audible. Stay true to that shotgun thing, just allow your offense to punish the defense it sees. THEN, you can really dictate what you want to do TO THEM.

[@shaolinshefgaming400]

In my opinion they need preseason, not just Joe but the entire first unit on offense and defense, everything was disjointed. We have several pro bowl level offensive lineman but somehow every year they come to Cincinnati and forget how to block, the play calling still looks like week 1 preseason still, Zach Moss averages 4.9 yards per carry on 9 rushes, run the ball more it's clearly effective. The defense missed waaaay too many tackles and that's because they don't have live reps, practice is touch and light thud, they need live reps

[@ThomasKoehler-gn7ku]

Zac Taylor was an offensive coordinator for the University of Cincinnati football and he sucked as an offensive coordinator. So now as a head coach for the Cincinnati Bengals he sucks as a coach. His record shows it. In the first 5 games he has the worst record. And then they play catch up.

[@qtheband751]

If tanner holds that ball we have a whole different discussion. We’ll be fine. I’m more worried about Dan pitch looking wide eyed upstairs.

[@betsymcnally]

It’s a catch 22. Too much practicing in pre season presents the risk of injury. Not enough leads to a slow start. Let’s all just take some deep breaths and enjoy the season. Who Dey.

[@adrikkain9251]

In my opinion it seems that zac Taylor falls in love with his philosophy in the offseason and so he goes into the regular season to ridged with his game plan and seems to have this idea of easing into the game so he comes out extremely conservative and is too slow to adapt to the game, whereas as the season goes on he is essentially forced to change his approach which he is actually good at doing if only he could get to that point faster or even come in with that approach

[@averybailey9263]

Totally agree!! I think his ability to adapt during the season is his saving quality but it's frustrating. It took him until last year and the season being on the line to start putting Chase in motion. Like bro that's standard ish for modern offenses.

[@levimeiller9152]

We can’t respond late with the class of AFC currently

[@bikeymoy]

Not only Joe needs to play more in the preseason. Tanner Hudon could have been corrected, if he did that in a game that didn't count. Ya see, practicing is NOT the same as managing a whole preseason game. Managing attrition doesn't come out of joint practices. Hell, even Zack Taylor might have benefitted from managing a whole game with the intent of winning... stupid idea to punt.

[@douglashastings1275]

I’ve tried to ignore it but the unfortunate truth is we’re an average team. We lost key players and in typical Bengals fashion we try to replace them with cheaper versions. Below average coaches. Just look at the play calling. Players have bad body language and some have become distractions. Fun’s over. This is are true identity.

[@cgendrew83themac]

On d we lost Reader (and it’s hurting us) and Bates. The corners are an upgrade, but Hubbard is past prime now. Defense I’m not too worried about yet based on this 1 game. Tackle and don’t turn the ball over and they hold them to only maybe 1 td? On offense, this prob the best line Burrow has. Chase and Higs still around. Tyler is old and was time and Mixons production can be replaced (we don’t really run the ball). We still in our window is what I’m basically saying. Just need better coaching and clean up the same stuff.

[@qtheband751]

Ya we’re on the decline. It’s going to get uglier from here. Taylor’s shit coaching has finally caught up with us.

[@ShinefortheCam]

​@qtheband751 not really. If our young guys get healthy& bring some energy. We'll be fine! But they have to play them

[@bengalsfandom623]

Really appreciated this whole discussion!

[@melod7670]

No QB has a clean pocket on every drop back. I think the OL played pretty decent. Burrow was just very sped up on Sunday and had a bad game against a poor team, plus there were a bunch of dumb mistakes on top of Burrow playing poorly. They need to right the ship quickly or they will get embarrassed this Sunday..

[@qtheband751]

No matter what we do this week, we will be embarrassed on Sunday. Best to prepare for it.

[@gothard5]

I don’t think Burrow played poorly at all. He didn’t throw any INTs, he didn’t have any fumbles, he was pretty accurate, and he made some nice scrambles here and there. it’s not Burrow’s fault his WRs and TEs were dropping and fumbling.

[@jcreature11]

Borrows stats aren’t that bad, we lost the game due to the tight ends not making catches

[@gothard5]

ALL of the starters need to be playing in every preseason game.

[@zacharybailey977]

This was supposed to finally be the training camp with a healthy Burrow and no drama. This has nothing to do with pre season reps for the offense. It has everything to do with Jamaar not practicing at all during camp. How do you build a gameplan around a guy that never practiced? The Tee Higgins late in the week hammy issue was where my feelings went south for this game. He was supposed to be the center of the offense while Jamaar got up to speed. Now without him it highlights how much of a disruption the Jamaar contract was. So it’s time to pay up. We are fortunate to be talking about him being a top 5 receiver instead of a draft bust. Pay the man so we can get on with the season already.

[@josephschmidt2183]

Same old problems the defense can’t stop the run, the offensive line can’t protect Burrow and they struggle running the ball. Sunday they couldn’t tackle and the fumbled the ball away.

[@millertime2828]

1st team D needs to tackle in preseason. The last play of the game when we had Stevenson in the backfield and we made him look like Barry Sanders would have been considered a great play by our D in a practice scenario with no tackling required. Since tackling was required in a real game, we got exposed.

[@marlanjones8718]

Joe just didn't look like himself. He's played better with worse offensive line play. The line played well enough for us to win. He seems like he's not processing as fast as he used to

[@zoneworld308]

The Bengals Stars should play all the way to the half of each preseason game

[@alainagehrig2736]

The offensive line is still the white elephant. Burrow has an ingrained mentality, from the last 3 years, that he has 1.7 seconds to throw! The line gets blown up somehow, somewhere 90 % of pass plays! That’s why he won’t line up under center, he wants to see who’s getting beat as soon as he can. Any team with a good or better d-line eats this o-line up! Poor Joe. We had the opportunity to draft quality interior linemen a couple times and we blew it. We won’t or can’t stop any pro bowl lineman period. They line them up out of position to take advantage of our poor line play. If Joe had a really decent line, we wouldn’t lose. He would have the time to find that receiver streaking for a touchdown! But we don’t pay guards, so we will have to rely on luck once again, and we were lucky in 21! 😢
