Only three DTs available today

Thornton
Peko
Harris

Probably see some DEs take some DT snaps.

Second straight week that Shirley was inactive… Sims being inactive is likely still his injury and perhaps, lack of preparation.

Sims being inactive, I understand (it's injury)

But I question Shirley. We’re just really short handed. What’s the reasoning? Is it his impending court case? Is he not adjusting? Is he not doing “his job”? Is he in Marvin’s dog house?

we should have kept mike myers if we were going to have the rookies inactive

Handoff to Perry, of the right edge — GREAT blocking — picks up about 7 yards. Though he lost the fumble that went out of bounds. Great job by Williams to make the block at the LB level.

Whitworth

I’m hearing it, not seeing it. But apparently Haynesworth, on the past two plays, is really frustrated by Whitworth’s total awesomeness. Whitworth has lost his helmet twice, though I’m not sure if he’s just losing it, or if Haynesworth has something to do with it.

Bengals defense had 12 guys on the field, almost 13 but JJ sprinted off the field. They nearly were called for 12 men again on the play after. That would be Zimmer’s packages and players not paying attention.

Cincinnati's performance was embarrassing on that drive.

What happened to an “aggressive Zimmer defense?” That was a bend, bend, bend, bend, screw up, and eventually break defensive series. You have a back-up QB who is known for throwing picks – force him to beat you! That “ten yard cushion” BS is as bad as Bratkowski’s play calling last weekend.

After another carry by Perry for no gain, Palmer sets up in shotgun.

On the play, Palmer throws DEEP to Chatman. Palmer just overthrew the pass — probably helped by the wind. Chatman had a step on the defender though…

Larson

All of his punts have been off the side of his foot, just crappy punting. Maybe the wind is barely pushing the ball when he drops it for the punt. But he’s an NFL kicker. If that’s the case, he should be accounting for it.

To allow a team that was trying to run out the clock to score before the half. Letting teams score in the last two minutes of a half KILLED the Bengals last year. Good Job not fixing that at all Zimmer.
