2nd Half Thread: Cincinnati Bengals (7-2) 14 - Oakland Gradkowskis (2-7) 7

PrintSo far, not too great for Cincinnati on the scoreboard. Or on the football field, it turns out, as the injury bug continued to bite the Bengals at the end of the 2nd quarter. Andrew Whitworth limped off the field after a collision with Carson Palmer. Then they just got all conservative, and stuff, and stopped trying to score points with only 43 seconds left in the half. As a result, the Bengals gave the Raiders enough time to take a 57-yard field goal attempt that Janikowski missed wide left. The point is, it was almost 10 points in 1 minute because of conservative play calling. That's awful. Marvin really needs to light a fire under the boys in the second half or this game could go south.
Statistically, it was a pretty good half for the Bengals on both sides of the football. The boys in orange and black possessed the ball for over 21 minutes to Oakland's under 9 minutes of possession. Carson Palmer, however, has only thrown the ball 10 times (completed 8) for 12.9 yards per pass. Hmmm... Meanwhile, the Bengals have rushed the ball 25 times for 3.3 yards per carry. Hmmm... I wonder if Bob Bratkowski is privy to these stats. I know we ran the ball down their throats on one drive, but you can't get that conservative. You have to score more points, you can't stop trying to score points. These guys really need to step their game up in the second half.
Other stats: 0 sacks, 0 QB hits for the Bengals (and 1 tackle for a loss). 1 sack for Oakland (and 6 tackles for a loss).
Bruce Gradkowski, Bengal killer, is 9/15 for 74 yards and a TD, much of that coming on dump-offs to wide open receivers that had room to run underneath. All that is good for a 94.9 passer rating. What is it about this guy against the Bengals?
In unsurprising news, the Bengals can't cover TE Zach Miller, and he's really been the Raiders' biggest weapon. Here's hoping the second half goes our way, these guys really need to get the foot back on the gas and put this one away.

“look at how he locked up the receiver’s arm, that’s playing defensive back at it’s best!”
so, laying DB at it’s best means grabbing the receiver’s arm and holding down so he can’t catch the ball? I guess if you’re not going to get called for interference, he’s right.

1st and 10 Oakland. Gradkowski in the gun, 1 back, 1 TE, 3 WR.
Blitz coming, picked up.
Bombs it, and no one manages to come up with the pick. Morgan Trent was close, but he couldn’t locate the ball until it was too late.
2nd and 10, 1:09.
Gun, 3 WR, 1 RB, 1 TE. 4 man rush. Gradkowski fires it to the out, to Schillings? But the WR didn’t turn his head around.
remember d,
they ain’t gonna punt… don’t only expect 10 yard
I guess a winning record brings out freaks.
3rd and 10, 1:04. Gun, 3 WR, 2 RB.
Blitz comes, doesn’t get there. Joseph almost picks it off. 4th and 10.
Jesus Joseph
I can’t believe they called Joseph “good” and a “veteran” in the same ten seconds.

4th and 10, 59 seconds. Oakland has 1 time out.
Gradkowski in the gun, 3 wide, 1 RB.
Time. First down to Schillengs.
1st down?

It's okay
Kirkendall said the Raiders still have to score twice to beat us. Wait a minute . . .

Morgan Trent blew it on that drive.
Couldn’t find the ball to make the pick. Joseph dropped a pick. Morgan got beat by the pump fake on that one.
His knee might have been down.
Game over.
I HATE GRADKOWSKI!!!!!!!

whats going on?
my feed died and nfl.com hasn’t shown the extra point as going through,. are they reviewing?
Why do they have to review everything?
That’s a td everytime in the history of the game. And yet we stop the game to review it.

Missed fieldgoals. Missed opportunities in the redzone.
Conservative playcalling. Bad things.
23 seconds left.
at least every one else in the divison lost

I hope they miss the playoffs

This game should have never been this close.
Ridiculous that we’re letting Gradkowski do this to us again.
we got 1

great… back to being the bungles. Oh the joy
by Sheffieldbengal on Nov 22, 2009 7:18 PM EST reply actions
Now that was classic Bungles...
…thought we were done with that crap.
Teams lose games....
….by being beat. Not by serving it up on a silver platter to teams like Oakland.
this is the first time all year
the buckeyes have won and the bengals have lost
wow lets see how many are here next week
we are fine and will make th eplayoffs easy …dont forget we didnt have Ced the catalyst to our whole team this year….Stay positive guys!!!
umm scott had over 100 yards

by TennBengalfan on Nov 22, 2009 7:22 PM EST up reply actions
you can play the game that if ced was in, scott would be returning kicks and caldwell has no t chance to fumble on that play
fsubengal is right, we are ok in the long run, hopefully the team learns from it and comes back with a vengence
Yes he did... does that mean the running game was good?
100 isn’t some magical meter of where awesome starts.

Not terrible, but that’s not Benson. [too many up the middles for no gain]
Eliminate the 61 and a -5 and you have 19 runs for 63 yards. Nothing special.
Of course, it is important that he CAN do those 61 yarders, but those are plays that Benson wouldn’t have been asked to make. that probably would’ve been a Scott call by design
I guess a winning record brings out freaks.
pardon formatting
the “—” were to represent end of drive, including those he didn’t have a rush
I guess a winning record brings out freaks.
The Bungles we will always remain
Awful effort by this team. What a joke.
The season doesn't start until the Cincinnati Reds take the field! Reclaim The Opener!!
a joke indeed

Awful.
Absolutely Awful. How many times did the Bengals have the game won? Shayne Graham? Jeremi Johnson? Jonathan Joseph? Andre Caldwell? WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY???????
"Ryan, Things in here don't react too well to bullets." - Marko Ramius
what is this feeling im feeling...
Haven’t felt it since last season…even after the losses to Houston and denver i was still enthusiastic..
dont worry!
we have the lions and browns the next two weeks!
oh wait… that was the raiders?
shit…
Alright my wallowing is done!
Let us hope that marvin riles them up in a locker room speech…and we go on a frenzy. Im sure as hell alright losing to easy teams and then in the playoffs winning against hard teams. KC beat Pitt So we’re still first.. lets look to cleaveland and woop thier asses come on boys!!
WHO DEY
hopefully this is a wakeup call
that we can’t underestimate the bottom-feeders and we won’t let the same thing happen with cleveland and detroit.
What a lost opportunity
Again, Leon Hall and JJ could have shut them out by MAKING INTERCEPTIONS as opposed to letting balls slip through their fingers.

do you remeber when we lost to the Texans and eveyone said Bungles
Same thing your gonna lose games. Id rather do it out of division
Pittsburgh and Baltimore lost too
so we are ok for winning the division
but that was ridiculous that we lost this game
Anyone who sys there done for the year now...
should not be allowed back to the postseason game threads
Shouldn't come down to this
Only two real good series of plays by the Bengals that resulted in TDs. First one was 9 consecutive running plays with Palmer scoring from the 1. Otherwise, this team must be over confident, unprepared and did not have that killer instinct to finish the other team off. Palmer looked awful as well in this game. It never should have come down to losing the game with the fumbles. Don’t console yourself because Steelers and Ravens both lost as well. Bengals are just meow cats for now and will get blown out of the playoffs by Colts or Patriots.
