Pat Sims: "I moved. My fault. All my fault."

Carson has been owning up to most of the losses this year, even when some were not his fault at all. All in all, the Saints never should have been allowed to be in that position if the safeties played like they should. Or, if Palmer and Chad had hooked up to keep the second to last possession alive and maybe score a TD instead of a FG

That said the coaching and leadership are uttlerly lacking. Why didn’t Marvin take a time out to preserve over a minute at the end of the game? The Bengals are rudderless at this point with nobody taking charge of the game on Sundays. They are getting harder and harder to cheer for every week.

This isn’t 2009 where the most egregious errors were defined by Brad St. Louis long snaps. We’ve lost games this year because of penalties, lack discipline, miscues on offense, lack of penetration on defense, and, oh, some really really bad play calling.

This leaves me with the conclusion that, all around, this is a bad team which cannot be fixed in one offseason.

knew there was no way they were going to go for it. Apparently Pat Sims was the only man in America that wasn’t smart enough to figure that out. Way to go…

If Zimmer can’t coach his players better than this he has no business coaching. He should have explicitly told the defense not to move. If a guy has been playing football for that long and he is not smart enough to figure it out, then why is he even playing professional football?

All of these mental errors are inexcusable, especially at this point in the season. Any coaching staff that cannot fix these mistakes 12 games into the season has no business coaching. Ridiculous.

That’s a man’s way to admit a mistake; he just came right out and said that it was his fault. He made no attempt to pass the blame and he took full accountability.

He’s the type of guy I think I want to see on this team, and he should be a solid backup (or maybe even starter) in the trenches for a while.

This gives them almost a full year to prepare for opening kick off 11’. Wait! we don’t have a head coach signed yet and our OC isn’t fired yet. The players don’t have a direction. Someone to implement discipline. Oh, they don’t have a direction this year.

Pat Sims has been phenomenal the past few weeks at getting a good fast jump off the ball and pushing into the pocket. If I can see the way he’s firing off the snap, you know the other teams see it as well. How can our coaches not have the sense to tell Pat not to do it on that play? They have to know that the other team sees him as a target for the hard count in that situation. The hard count to draw offsides is a coaching/pscyh move. It’s the responsibility of our coaches to make sure he knows the other team is in all likelihood not really going to snap the ball and to be prepared for the hard count.

A) I forgive Pat Sims. He’s been our best DT over the past month.
B) i thought the Saint were going to run a play. Here’s why… they just called a timeout. So they can’t take another one back to back. I was expecting them to try and make us jump offsides. I didn’t work, then the switched the play. I said “here we go”. Brees hard counted, the clock got low and Sims jumped offsides. The thought of taking the delay of game never crept into my mind.

Most Cincinnati tax payers can relate to this statment. Can we get a mulligan on that stadium vote please?

The first time I saw a quarterback get called for false start, I was thinking “What the hell?” I didn’t know a qb could be called for false start.

So on a hard count is the qb allowed to jump like Brees did on that play that drew Sims offsides? Granted it’s not the only problem with that game, but I would call that a missed false start penalty. Brees jumped big time. Maybe it’s allowed but if that is the case I don’t see how a qb can even be called for a false start.
