Bratkowski: Bengals Offense Moving In Right Direction

Classic. I do think its disturbing that Brat only felt the need to “tinker” with a few things. I get that the league is all about incremental adjustments. Hopefully he tinkered himself out of the playcalling, told Palmer to stop the hard count because it doesn’t work anymore, and told Carson to stop calling audibles that result in -1 yard rushing plays. Maybe he can tinker Chad into getting his head into the game or stopping the wideouts and linemen from stupid penalties like false starts.

Oh boy, how terrible will this offense look now…

Here’s the thing: I don’t knock Orton a bit. When you’re tossing the ball enough to be on track to break Marino’s single-season record, you’re a good quarterback, regardless of the haters.

Bob: "Blah blah blah new people blah blah blah same page blah blah blah playbook from Cracker Jack box.

I seriously now hate this guy more then I hate Mike Brown. He has completely lost his f-ing mind. Your playbook and offensive scheme is terrible. Below is the best assessment I saw in regards to Brat’s “Simple” bullshit.

I find it hard to believe that 11 men are too stupid to run a simple offense. Isn’t the simplest answer usually the right one, which in this case would be that the one guy that is drawing up the plays is in the wrong, rather than the 11 guys that are failing to execute them properly.

in every game but one, I hope the tweaks somehow involve not turning the ball over or taking stupid penalties and they should be fine.

 I would also like to see the power run game with Benson on third and shorts (or at least the threat of it) and Gresham utilized more in a manner that lets him be effective downfield and in the RAC game, but i will settle for the first two points.

Eliminate dumb mistakes on both O and D and the Bengals should win this game.

Should start calling plays that have a high success rate. This guy is such a joke. At this point, the Bengals should set up a computer system to call their plays. It would be cheaper than paying Bratworst’s salary and much more effective. Seriously, I can’t believe MB hasn’t thought of this already. “Sorry Brat, Your Fired! We got a new computer and it saves me money!”

Doing an ugly fat chick. You’ll do it sober but never admit it to your friends. And the drunker you get, the more attractive they become and the longer you can stick it out.. Columbus Bengals Nation, aka a support group at a bar for Bengals fans. Good times, good times.

From draft picks, free agent signings, contract negotiation, the medical staff, scouting department, clock management, lack of preparation, play calling, to ownership; from top to bottom.

Alright Wonderbob, if the players are too stupid to run the simplified playbook that you are calling, then why are on the roster in the first place? Who is responsible for these players making final cuts?

Why not try and be a man and own up to your mistakes? I have never once heard you take any responsibility for anything that is wrong with this offense. Sure, you have taken up for players, but there is always a finger pointed in someone else’s direction in the process. Very rarely do you ever hear the players stick up for you. There is probably a reason for that. Could it possibly be that they do not respect you?

It’s funny how the Indianapolis Colts build through the draft, and can plug in players that most of us have never even heard of on both sides of the ball, and get to the playoffs year after year. Jeff Fischer and the Tennessee Titans get more out of less than any other team I have seen. The Patriots can plug in a quarterback that hasn’t started a game since high school and get a 10 win season. I see teams all throughout the league that are able to get production out of their rookies, but we seem to be baffled at the task. Why is it that our coaching staff can’t figure out how to do any of this?

Wonderbob, we need leaders, not excuse makers. You don’t hear leaders whine “that’s not fair” when asked questions about what is going wrong. Leaders take responsibility for the situation. Those are the kind of coaches that players want to play for.

I would love to actually hear an honest assessment of the situation from a few of the players without them fearing their comments would leak to the media.
