Week 4 Game Thread

[Conigliaro's Potential]

Starting with Bengals-Dolphins. Some decent Thursday nighters these first few weeks!

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

I’m irrationally excited about the Bengals uniforms tonight

 

[Ale Xander]

What happened with the orange???

 

[Dollar]

Ah, Keion Crossen... a name that I'm very happy to not hear very often anymore.

 

[rymflaherty]

The Dolphins defense is gassed…and I don’t blame them.
Hopefully the offense can at least keep it interesting.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Is Al dying?

 

[YTF]

Am I the only one noticing a shitty picture? It's almost like a matte or flat paint finish compared to a gloss finish.

 

[JCizzle]

Edmonds with one of the worst drops you'll see in a season. Perfectly thrown ball without a ton of zip.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

There's drops and then there's what just happened

 

[sodenj5]

I mean… that’s an absolute clank. 4 points off the board with that drop.

 

[rymflaherty]

The drop was so bad, the Amazon play by play typed it in as a touchdown.

Stream seems bad this week.

 

[JCizzle]

Wow. That throw to Gesicki (sp) was very impressive. Dropped it perfectly between four defenders.

Edit: That throw to Hill....was very unimpressive.

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Wow, that was a terrible pass

 

[cshea]

Horrible throw on the pick. Late and behind the shithead.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Mac Jones apparently isn't alone in throwing terrible deep balls

 

[JCizzle]

Wow, that was a terrible pass

His ability to look off defenders was one of the things that I remember really liking about him in Alabama. He showed that quality there again, but this isn't Alabama where guys will be open by fifteen yards. He bought himself a step, at most, and he doesn't have the arm to make them pay for that.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

This Bengals O is plodding.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Asiasi sighting!

 

[shawnrbu]

Asiasi!

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

Not head contact but 2 steps too late, should still be a penalty.

 

[cshea]

The Cincy Oline is what I imagined the Pats online looked like during camp with all the negative reports

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Pretty garbage 4th down call. Just kick if that's all you have.

 

[Warning Track Speed]

Big stop by a clearly exhausted D. Tua needs to reward them with a nice long scoring drive.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Take the points in the first half. Don’t like it.

 

[Rudy's Curve]

Nobody runs outside to the short side on fourth and short like Zac Taylor. Good god, man.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

I’m going for that, but yeesh block better.

 

[shawnrbu]

Rather have 2nd and 10 than 1st and 15.

 

[Senator Donut]

Sports media talks way too nonchalantly about the abuse Tua suffered as a child

 

[Mystic Merlin]

No kidding. There’s a ‘ha ha…..ha?’ tone you get at best, and at worst they praise it.

 

[Remagellan]

Kirk's tan is making Al look like a ghost.

 

[sodenj5]

Bengals playing like a 1-2 team.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Sports media talks way too nonchalantly about the abuse Tua suffered as a child

I’ll always remember the stone face of his dad after he got drafted. Like, it’s the best moment of your son’s life and…nothing. No emotion. His dad really is a giant piece of shit.

 

[shawnrbu]

What does Burrow do better than Mac?

 

[cshea]

Yikes

 

[Dollar]

Oh man, Tua....

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Yikes. Head first?

 

[ifmanis5]

You can't take a hit like that when you have that much time.

 

[sodenj5]

JFC. Please be ok. Dude is absolutely concussed.

 

[cshea]

Hope he is OK but holy shit throw the ball away

 

[Remagellan]

It looked like it was his back more than his head.

 

[patinorange]

Was his finger bent back there?

 

[Shelterdog]

After what’s was obviously a terrible concussion last week this is particularly disturbing.

 

[ifmanis5]

Yikes still down. Very scary.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Which was skirted over right quick.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Jesus

 

[ekim colorwaterpit]

Which was skirted over right quick.

But now will be in the forefront big time

 

[Remagellan]

Those finger cramps looked scary.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

The fingers might be in a weird position because he was that badly concussed. Thought it was a broken finger at first.

EDIT: Fencing position, tha'ts the name.

 

[JCizzle]

Oh my God. That camera shot of his hands is awful. Don't buy the Dolphin's explanation for that concussion fiasco last week and it looks like something worse just happened.
