That's ironic, I just watched a big wreck on the football field in Dallas.

After scoring 17 points...
The Bengals forced…
7 plays, 14 yards… punt.
3 plays, 14 yards… fumble
And a one-play end of the half draw play.

Nice job, Geathers.
Forcing a long third down play.

The Cowboys, in a real sense, are keeping us in this game.

Excellent... three and out by the Bengals defense.

Now, our offense gets everything together................

Since the Cowboys last TD in the 1st Quarter.
They’ve gone 14 plays, 36 yards.

Third and One
Palmer, in shotgun, completes the pass to Antonio Chatman for the first down.

Perry blown up by Ware for a loss.
My question is why do you have Reggie Kelly on Ware?
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
Another first down.
Nice job Perry. Catch, turn and dive for the first down.

DANIEL COATS
He’s smacking some dudes, today. Did you see that last play where he led blocked?

Tank Johnson - a little quick on the...trigger...
Sorry, I could not resist.

horrible!
- covering Perry, chasing him by 5 yards and we miss a td opportunity. this game should be tied. horrible holding call on TJ cost the team 4 pts.
I think Palmer thinks that Perry is 6'9"

Perry had him beat by a good few yards.

At least I'm winning in my fantasy league by 70 points.

Palmer is starting QB...
God bless Ronnie BRown and Steve Slaton.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
They got a breather...
the long drive set them up for a good stand!!
My guess... pass offense
Perry is lining up at wide out a lot too. The runs are designed to keep the defense honest. Again, just my guess.

You must not know anything about football
Clearly, you should give your worst running back the ball repeatedly.
Should have been stuffed behind the line.

Crayton. Wow. Close. Dhani Jones covering.

Nice job on Thornton. Spun on the block and filled the gap.

Agreed.

And we're back...
false start. Awesome.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
How about a play action, bomb to Chad?
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Bratkowski = trying to lose the game.
Palmer got great protection all day. Let him throw!
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Phil Simms got a few too many blows to the head as a player.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
I don't know.
Crowd noise was high, we’re pinned inside the five yard line. Don’t lose the game at that point of the game. Not justifying, just saying…
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
What does that have to do with it?
Because it’s loud, you can’t run a play that’s designed to gain more than 3 yards? Really? In the NFL?
...
Most teams, when they’re pinned in like that, not at home, tend to run the ball up the gut to get yards so the punter has room.

Miserable.
This is the part where the Bengals give away everything they can possibly give away by poor play calling and poorer execution.
Plus, missed tackles...

By decree of Chancellor Goodell...

The flag was further down field.
I don’t think they flagged the tripping. Not sure if they usually do, unless it’s a leg whip.

WTF?!
Did the refs think adding another 15 yards would be insult to injury? Unbelievable. Fucking Cowboys favoritism.
Yea, I get it. I like having the steady stream of stats.

Oh man. Did you guys see the Cowboys/Redskins game? They slipped all day.

Right on. Bengals down by ONE point. 17-16.

lost opportunity....
I hate sounding like a broken record.

Who is this team?
And why are they wearing stripes?
Vote Pops in '08. I promise nothing and I'll do it!
Numbers aren't showing it. But Chad looks good.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
All right. Plenty of time. Defense is playing balls out.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
Chris Perry should NOT get on the field again in this game.

Bengals should be tied at least.
Stupid missed opportunities.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Palmer looks REALLY calm in the pocket now.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
When Perry is in, they're passing.
When Benson is in, they’re rushing.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
Do think they'd put Perry back to return kickoffs?
We haven’t fumbled a kickoff yet this year.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
dinner over and cleaned up...
and its a one score game. not often i’ve been able to say that this year!
Palmer: 20/34, 185 yards, 2 TDs, INT
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
don't run the ball, don't run the ball, don't run the ball
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
Game over.
Cowboys will score a TD and put the game out of reach.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Settle down. Down by two. Over seven minutes left.

Damn it. Tried to isolate Utecht, who's a good foot taller than the coverage guy.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
unreal
WHY throw a bad fade pattern to an overrated TE who has shown he can’t catch the ball? did they not want to score there?
Son of a cock lovin' whore!
I’m new here. Can I say that? Fade to Benny? That’s as creative as we can get?
Vote Pops in '08. I promise nothing and I'll do it!
He evidently did not "singeth unto the lord" enough this week.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
The match-up was there. CB just played the ball better than Utecht.

Third and Three.
C’mon D!!! Turnover?
Pitch to the right?
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
No rush
the Bengals have their soft 4th quarter D in there. Romo’s goign to look like Montana here with no one giving him pressure and no one covering his receivers.
They've had plenty of time to rest.

Rucker should have kept contain.
What an IDIOT.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
We should just let them score on this next play.
Our only chance now is to be down 9 points with 4 minutes to go. Get a touchdown and kick another onside.
We hold them to a FG, without another 1st down and we win by a TD.

God I really hate Marion Barber.
At least his career will be short.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
We KNOW they're running it, yet the Bengals have 4 men in the box.
is my 6 year old nephew coaching?
Have to start using time outs now. We have all three.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
HOW CAN THEY NOT COVER WITTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Witten is pretty good though... a lot of teams fail to cover him.

COme on D
Third and Long. GET THE BALL BACK!!!!
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
We have a chance (this will be the last time I say this)
Stop the Cowboys here, use one of our two remaining time outs, force the field goal and have under two minutes to move down the field.
Blogger at CincyJungle.com -- SB Nation Cincinnati Bengals blog.
Just watch, Brian. They'll do it.

Why do they even suit those DBs up?
What do they do lafter the ball is snapped? Run around in circles until the whistle blows?
AWFUL.
As a said – the Bengals should have gone for 1 vs. 2.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Can an organization fine a player for fumbling?
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
I think Mike Brown should fine Perry his entire salary for this game.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Here's to another week of the Bengals not learning a damn thing.
Chris Perry will be back again getting pointless unproductive carries. They’ll continue running the same short outs, with Carson telegraphing every pass. And the Defense will continue to play entire game without a single blitz.
Pathetic.
THey played better. But they should have won. That’s the mark of a bad team, finding ways to lose games you should win.
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
Okay. I'm hoping for 0-16.
nothing will change unless it happens, and they’ll go another decade like this.
Why is anyone surprised they choked?
Perry’s fumble was the difference maker. Get rid of him. No, wait. Keep him. Go 0-16, and somebody PLEASE buy the team.
Tom Blogical
Um...I did.
You:
“You had me until "stop the Cowboys here.”
Kirkendall:
“Just watch, Brian. They’ll do it.”
Kirkendall:
“Oh god.”
See? Surprise!
Tom Blogical
NOT THEY, HIM
THEY didnt find a way to lose. PERRY found a way to lose. I hate the bum get rid of him. 5 fumbles in 5 games. I’d rather have Rudi.
