Open Thread. Second Half: Cincinnati Bengals (9-3) at Minnesota Vikings (10-2)

In a game that was expected to be a bruising low-scoring game, the Vikings and Bengals appeared to be going very one-sided, with Cincinnati's first four possessions picking up 17 yards and four punts. Cincinnati finally found its rhythm with a good combination of passes and rushes, converting a ten-play drive 82 yards, ending with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Chad Ochocinco.

Thanks to good field position by poor punts from Kevin Huber, decent returns by the Vikings and a few penalties, Minnesota's offense did get 10 points on two drives that picked up 39 yards or more on at least seven plays. With four minutes left in the first half, the Vikings went 71 yards on 14 plays to convert their second field goal, leaving half a minute left in the half. The Bengals, brilliant as always on offensive play-calling, were quickly taken off the field after a Brian Leonard fumble which lead to another field goal and a 16-7 Minnesota Vikings lead.

Brett Favre and Carson Palmer are each completing just over 50% of their passes while Cedric Benson and Adrian Peterson have combined for 98 yards rushing on 20 carries.

  Bengals Vikings
Total Yards 104 178
First Downs 9 11
Passing Yards 48 113
Rushing Yards 56 65
Penalties 8 (65) 5 (40)
Time of Possession 15:06 14:50

Benson's Half

This needs to be Benson’s half. He’s averaging 5.8 yards per carry. He’s over 1,000 yards on the season. Time for Benson to take over.

he was only averaging that high per carry because of his 42 yard run

without that, he’s averaging 3.6 YPC

I guess I'm just a worrier, that's why my friends call me whiskers

we are only down 16-7 despite our (and the refs) best efforts to lose with penalties and dumb play calling. the last time our offense was out ont he field we had a nice long sustained drive for 7 points. just got to get back at it and have the d hold the vikes on this first possession

I wasn't gonna get classless on you

But you brought Ohio into this, and you’re not on BTSC, so I’m not gonna hold back. I disagree, Western PA is the cestpool of the US. Unemployment and crack addiction is even more rampant there than even the likes of Lower Michigan. Hell, you probably don’t even live in PA. I’m not gonna call you a frontrunner because you stepped up to defend your team in a bad year.

Refs are intructed to let the play continue and sort it out after the play....

but that was pretty clearly a down by contact play.

Why kick it? We were 2 TDs (and two two-point conversions) behind. We’re STILL two TDs behind.

Here's how you lose:

Penalties, Turn the ball over, kick field goals, don’t score red zone touchdowns.

And they settle for 3, which doesn't accomplish ANYTHING.

Still a 2 score game. Wasted 2.5 minutes to score 3.

Baltimore could very easily go 4-0 to finish the season out. With games against San Diego, the Jets, and the Chiefs, we PROBABLY go 10-6 at least, but if our offense continues to be this abysmal, losing the rest of our games isn’t out of the question

I really dislike the Broncos

I guess I'm just a worrier, that's why my friends call me whiskers

when JT came in, why didn’t they run it with Benson three times so he could have gotten 100 yards

Hey…what happened to the guys that said a win is a win and our offense was playing well enough? Anyone willing to admit that they’re borderline insane today?

This offense has been pathetic since 2007. How many miles can Brat and Carson Palmer get out of ‘05-’06?

well, i’d take an ugly win over and ugly loss anyday

Absolutely. But my point was: If we’re barely squeaking them out against awful teams, the better teams are going to stick it to us. Eventually the defense won’t be able to bail out the offense.

Offense has run its course

Defense deserved a little better today
Can only see defense keeping us in any game for the rest of the season

Coles – missing in action
Caldwell – not far behind
Coats – no comment

Cleveland Browns Trade Brady Quinn To Broncos For Peyton Hillis, Conditional Picks

FILE - In this Sept. 4, 2009 file photo, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Shaun Hill aims a pass downfield against the San Diego Chargers during the first quarter of an NFL preseason football game in San Diego. Hill earned the starting job for the 2009 season by beating out Alex Smith, who missed last season after re-injuring his surgically repaired throwing shoulder. Head coach Mike Singletary largely chose Hill based on his play down the stretch last year: he went 5-3 over the final eight games and he also owns a 5-0 record at home in Candlestick Park.
