Well, I'll be praying. No need to go over all the bad play and injuries. Both teams have issues. Just hope we pull it out for Rod and all of us fans.

It was another bad performance which got a win. I am beginning to believe that it is the schemes, Offensive and Defensive, that are the biggest problem. In the first few games we looked much better. Are the other teams picking up on what we are doing? If Tampa had substituted Fiztgerald earlier we would have lost. How are we going to defense Brees? It doesn't look good. One bright spot is that Dalton and AJ come thru in the Fourth Quarter. Where were they earlier. We just do not know how to put the game away. Look at the statistics of the game:
Bengals Bucs First Downs 21 29 Total Ned YDS 402 576 Rushing YDS 27-138 27-126 Passing 264 450 Comp-Att-Int 22-34-0 29-50-4 Sack-YDS-Lost 2-16 6-20 Fumbles-Lost 0-0 1-0 Punts 6-43.8 3-49.7 Penalty YDS 4-46 11-75 Time of Possession 24:01 35:5
If I didn't see the game I would bet that it was a close game (turnovers made it close) with Tampa winning. Lazor and Austin have got to do something different.

You are right Choco. But its nothing new to this year or even the ML era. This team has given up at halftime for decades. They never play a whole game. I remember thinking at halftime they will come out and lose this game. And you are right. If they had brought Fitz out one drive sooner we would most likely lost. Fitz is a great backup and we let him go..another Bengals blunder.
Now you see fans wanting to bring back Jackson. That would be a huge step backwards. Again part of this teams problem is being loyal to players and coaches who haven't earned it. Lazor has done a decent job. Lets remember this is his first full season. I don't want Jackson back. I remember all too well his predictable play calls. Our biggest problem is defense. They stink!

Is there really anything left to say about giving up three 500 yard games in a row. I believe I heard that’s the first time in NFL that has happened. Let me know if I’m wrong. The 1st string O can only muster up 2 TD’s in 2 games. This team either has coaching issues or talent ( lack of ) issues or probably both. They have a lot of holes to fill. First thing I’d do is fire Austin.
