Just unreal

So far today watching the Bengals offense resembles a trip to the dentist. I think Mixon might have got in. I hope he scored if not we might not get in again!

Our O-line has been playing pretty good but today they so far are getting totally dominated.

Absolutely pathetic offensively, just look like they could care less if they play

This game is a bad matchup for the Bengals. The Jets have one real strength - defensive line. The Bengals' weakness is offensive line. Zac Taylor will be challenged again in this one to find a way around that. I look for more of Chase on long fly patterns. Joe throw it up early and let Chase run to it. Need to do that to create space.

I agree totally I just hope the o-line can give Joe enough time to allow Chase time to get down the field.

It does look like we are starting to get more into the game on both sides of the ball. Caught a big break that the Jets did not challenge the Higgins catch. Bengals lead 14-7.

Or throw it up early for a long pass to Higgins. 

The Jets are helping us more than anyone by continuing to turn the ball over.

Yep I could not believe the Jets did not challenge that catch. I', glad they did not.?

No help from the Jets on that one. That was all Vonn Bell ripping the ball out and then recovering it.

Another mental error that cost us a chance at 7 points have to settle for a FG to make it 17-7. with 1:51 left in the half. Plus throwing it 3 times on first and goal will give the Jets time to score.

Well just like that by giving them 1:51 the defense allows them to go all the way down and get 7 to make it 17-14 at the half. Hopefully we will realize in the locker room that we are in a ballgame and need to come out ready to play in the 2nd half.

I hope I am wrong but I just am not getting a very good vibe in this one the way we have played so far I fear we are going to lose this game unless the Jets help us out with some more turnovers. I sure hope I am wrong and we start playing like we are capable of  or get a break here or there and pull out an ugly win or a win we didn't deserve.

Very embarrassing performance today

Bengals are just losing the one on one battles across the field. Many plays in this game, the defense is in perfect position to make plays and the Jets make blocks and moves to pick up good yardage. 

Offensively, when your line is getting whomped, it is tough to make something happen no matter how good your skill players are.
