Television coverage

Seems that CBS is pimping this game as one of their primaries — Bengals @ Giants have the largest coverage in that nation.

of offensive prowess from the defending Super Bowl champion?

Not really a "national game", just CBS figured it's their second biggest

My guess is that CBS doesn’t get to show NFC games much, and this is their chance to showcase the Giants. Ratings, perhaps, for some to see the Giants?

Perhaps, just perhaps, the Giants will overlook us. And perhaps, just perhaps, the Bengals fully aware of their embarrassing first two weeks, come out to play!

Palmer in shotgun, Giants send seven. Palmer lets go of the football in a pass attempt. His arm wasn’t going forward, and they call a fumble. Bengals recover, Bengals offense sucks, Bengals punt.

Dan Dierdorf is an idiot.

That was clearly an incomplete pass. You can tell Jeff Triplett had “Hochuli on the mind” on that play.

Corey Webster

Webster is credited with a sack, and forced fumble with a quick slap of Palmer’s throwing arm in the middle of his throw. Reggie Kelly was “blocking” him.

Giants jumped, Ghiaciuc snaps. Off-sides (just once, I’d like the Bengals to air it out for a free play).

Chris Perry gets the hand off up the middle! Houshmandzadeh, great block. The back-side was wide open — the Giants D-line crashed hard to the strong side.

No pressure.

That entire drive, the Bengals defense didn’t pressure Manning once, allowing him to sit back all day completing four of five passes for 39 yards — with two first down penalties, David Jones for pass interference and Simeon Castille for illegal contact.

The one incomplete was a dropped pass by Burress, with the nearest defender still in Cincinnati.

Perry gets the hand off, picks up three yards. Perry rushed off the right edge and tackled by Corey Webster, who did a nice job getting to the LOS and tackling Perry.

Palmer hits Chatman running down the left sidelines, and hooks the route. Then he out ran his coverage, started falling down and finishes with 25 yards. If he wasn’t falling down, he may have scored — at least picked up another 15 yards.

Palmer sacked three times in the first half.

Blown blocking by Levi Jones (again, his guy didn’t sack Palmer, but forced Palmer out of the pocket into the defense).

Reggie Kelly couldn’t hold off Corey Webster, who swatted the ball for a sack and fumble.

Now, Andrew Whitworth was a step too slow for the DT.

Palmer, in shotgun, split backfield with two WR on the left. Palmer hits Chatman on the left on a WR screen. Chatman turns inside and, well, it looks like if he went to the outside, along the sidelines, the blocking was there. Good nine yard pick up, makes third down manageable.

My two concerns for the second half

1) Who makes the better second-half adjustments. We know that the Bengals tend to have difficulty making second-half adjustments.

2) Bengals need to start finishing drives. As much as it’s nice having a 13-10 lead, the Bengals, if they finished their drives, could be up 21-10.

First and Ten

Palmer throws a deep pass down the left sidelines and, well, that was nearly picked off. Someone was underneath and someone was over the top. Bad decision.

Chatman returns the punt

All most breaks out. He dodges three tacklers, and then falls down. QUIT falling DOWN! Chatman has over 100 total yards today.

Third and Eight CIN27

Palmer, in shotgun, with plenty of time, and incomplete. Palmer hits T.J. who would have caught the pass. Sam Madison jumped the pass and swatted the ball down. Good defensive play. Bengals go three-and-out and punt.

that OT play calling was horrific

to easy to blame coaches usually, but that was terrible, the last two drive of regulation the Bengals finally get the passing going for the first time all season and then you open OT with 2 dive plays — the coaches gave up on that…terrible
