September 1, 20179 yr Author BTW McCarron throws a perfect strike to TE with 7 seconds left who gets drilled and drops ball. If he catches it the game is over as it was in the middle of the field and nowhere near FG range and Bengals were out of time outs. Next play McCarron scrambles hits WR who was wide open and steps out of bounds with 2 seconds left. The FG was long enough but just wide.
September 1, 20179 yr Author Did AJ play QB most of the game? Yes. Had to once Diskel was injured early on.
September 1, 20179 yr Author 20 for 30 for 216 No TDs No INTs. Bengals Williams ran 27 times for 117.
September 1, 20179 yr Thank god for the OSU Indiana game. I didn't watch but first 5 mins of this game so I have no idea how anyone played. I did hear our 1st rounder is hurt...again. How many 1st and 2nd rounders over the past 10'years have been hurt?
September 1, 20179 yr Kickers really stepped up at the end of this game. Bullock hits that kick, he was a lock. Now, who knows.

September 1, 20179 yr I'm not sure I can take another season of the same old thing. Penalties at the very worst times and conservative play calls with the game on the line. Just gets old and boring to watch. I know it's just pre-season but why not practice winning. Bengals had ball 3rd and 2 and as expected ran up the middle for no yards. Then missed the field goal to lose the game. Good teams get that first down by not being so predictable and either go on to try to score a touchdown or kick a much closer field goal with less time on the clock. It's time for a change.

Great post... I didn't see most of the game, but I saw the last ten minutes or so... and you are spot on here.
September 2, 20179 yr Much was made about McCarrons 2 interceptions this pre season. But no one is talking about what he did the last 4 minutes of this game? Three different times he led the Bengals to what should habe been game winning field goals to only see the kickers miss them. 4 minutes to go they miss a field goal to take the lead. 1 minute 23 seconds to go they miss another field goal to take the lead. 2 seconds to go they miss another field goal. It is just the preseason but that is impressive to do lead your team into field goal position 3 times in the last 4 minutes of a game.

Edit: it was this thread I haven't watched at all but somewhere in here said he threw to a TE in the middle of the field with no timeouts left at the end of the game and he dropped it. Is that true? If he catches it, game over? Or did I misread that somewhere?
