October 30, 200619 yr Rushing 3 worked for ATL... That blows my mind too. If we rush 3 or even 4 there is typically no pass rush at all. Yet teams have been able to do it against us.
October 30, 200619 yr The lack of a good replay IMO caused them to not challenge it. His first foot came down OOB. How can a line judge miss that? It wasn't very close.
October 30, 200619 yr His first foot came down OOB. How can a line judge miss that? It wasn't very close. This happened right in front of my son and I. We could not believe that is wasn't challenged. We saw with no replay. Marvin should have clued in when Atlanta hurried to get the next play off. I did see Vick make one of the most impressive plays that I've ever seen. He rollled left, was flushed out to the right, made eye contact and waved to one reciever like he was going to run, and threw a no-look 25 yard dart to another reciever down field. He was amazing today.
October 30, 200619 yr That roughing the passer call wasn't and I didn't blame the officials (like I still do in the Tampa Bay game), but both calls were horrible and against the Bengals. I missed any bad calls going their way. This is your last chance: Just admit that the Bengal defense couldn't handle Vick and Co.
October 30, 200619 yr http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=5629 “We need to toughen up; we need to man up,” Anderson said. “We have tough guys … but it’s spotty. …The goods teams have it; we don’t. Point blank." Anderson said if the club can't find an answer, "Make changes. Shake guys up." Willie and Rudi don't sound very happy.

October 30, 200619 yr This is your last chance: Just admit that the Bengal defense couldn't handle Vick and Co. Vick is flat amazing. He really seems to be coming in to his own as a passer. Even when the Bengals were able to get some pressure he was able to avoid it, face it, take it, and still make the plays. He didn't run today and flat torched us with his athleticism. He's unreal. That's what I said about Vick and Company. I never blamed anything on the officials, I mentioned that they made 2 poor calls agains the Bengals.
October 30, 200619 yr Poor coaching as well.... Had to burn timeout in second half because they didnt have enough players on field. Falcons convert a 3rd and 3 when the Bengals had 12 men on the field. A reporter needs to ask Sam Adams this question. Have the bullets started flying yet? Tory James grab some bench. Marvin can't pooh-pooh this loss. It has become alarming at how many home losses this team is having. In addition the ability to beat winning teams at home. Abandoning the run was ridiculous.
October 30, 200619 yr I'm thinking 9-7 wins the division... I think Baltimore could win 10 or 11 games.
October 30, 200619 yr Author I think Baltimore could win 10 or 11 games. They are the most likely to do it out of the 3 in consideration...
October 30, 200619 yr They are the most likely to do it out of the 3 in consideration... They have Tennessee, Buffalo and a couple of other should win games on their schedule. They SHOULD get at least 9. Pittsburgh may have ended their playoff hopes today losing vs. Oakland.
October 30, 200619 yr For some body who is supposed to be an awesome defensive coach, Marvin has had a pretty bad defense the past 4 years.
October 30, 200619 yr Author Funny there wasn't much problem with the D after they held Tampa and Carolina to 14 points each. Vick was amazing today. Get over it...
October 30, 200619 yr Funny there wasn't much problem with the D after they held Tampa and Carolina to 14 points each. Vick was amazing today. Get over it... He was great the past two weeks, a lot better than I ever thought he was. But now in year 4 of the Marvin era and our D still sucks? When is it going to get better? Thats all I ask.
