October 4, 200916 yr Zero. How about you? The facts are that Brad St. Louis has botched a snap in Week 1 & Week 3. He botched 2 in Week 4. How many chances does this professional athlete get? I haven't seen a one, but I'm not the one stating that St. Louis has to be cut. Like I said earlier if they have somebody better, then go get him.
October 4, 200916 yr HT, I feel like the Carson run was called as well. The Bengals have botched more FG/PAT attempts than any team in football from high school up. Let's just go for two each time?
October 4, 200916 yr The Carson run was most definitely called. This win makes me just that much more pumped for the rest of the season. This team is finally winning games they have no business winning. That's what good teams do. They play like crap sometimes, but still put themselves in positions to win. This is 2 straight games that they've done this and came out with a win. The schedule plays out from here on out that 7 of the final 12 should be wins....10-6 should get them into the post-season.

October 4, 200916 yr As for the Carson run, the announcers pointed that out earlier in the game. The Browns were giving him the middle all day, and they finally took advantage of it. For all of those people calling for St. Louis' head, shouldn't Graham take some blame for those? Yes, the snaps were high, but Huber got them down in plenty of time for Graham. A "franchise" kicker shouldn't have any problems with those very short kicks.
October 4, 200916 yr He is "franchised" because we didn't wanna pay huge money to someone that wasn't worth it. Rodgers got good penetration because it took forever for the kick to develop.
October 4, 200916 yr I personally dont think the keeper was called but Palmer knew it had been there for a while. Good veteran play.
October 4, 200916 yr Sorry. There is absolutely no justification for franchising Shayne Graham.. Who else would they have used it on? Initially I thought it was dumb but it makes sense.
October 4, 200916 yr Who else would they have used it on? Initially I thought it was dumb but it makes sense. No one. How about quit paying guys that suck top 5 money every year.
October 4, 200916 yr Well, I must say for a while I thought they were gonna end in a draw. Hey, where's that faithful Bengal fan Les? Les, where you is?
October 4, 200916 yr No one. How about quit paying guys that suck top 5 money every year. Were talking about a matter of 200-300K here.
October 4, 200916 yr You would have to think it is all mental. I mean honestly after 10+ years its not like he doesn't know the technique. It was mentioned in the paper about being mental with St Louis. He was perfect for years and then after the botch against Denver on the extra point a couple of years ago, he hasn't been the same. Time to move him out.
