Cincinnati Bengals @ Houston Texans Wild Card Game

    Defense has to adjust and play smarter. Not good to grab the momentum and then give it up that easily. Still feel good about the Bengals chances though.

    Its so stupid that you have to let the Wr catch the ball and prepare himself to run before you can hit him. What ever happened to trying to dislodge the ball? ****in Goodell
    The new technique is to dislodge it with the hands which some defenders have really become expert at.

    looked like a favorable spot for Cincinnati to pick up that first down
  • mhs95_06
    Benglas got a good spot for that first down rather than having to make it on 3rd and 6"!
  • Non
    great composure by Dalton on this drive, so far

    receivers and backs also focused

    3 for 3 on third downs
  • Terry_Tate
    Yeah, that was a favorable spot. Was a half a yard ahead it looked like, but ill consider it a makeup for the 15 Yarder. :)

    And Green is making J Jo his bitch.

    Dalton is looking great

    don't want to put the hex on him but so far in first playoff game, on the road, very impressive
  • Non
    nevermind

    awful play because he got sacked

    have to get it away to preserve a FG
  • mhs95_06
    Rookie takes a sack there and cost the FG!
  • Non
    missed FG

    that's on Dalton
  • Non
    Ben does that all the time, right on the fringe

    they were well in FG range at about the 25

    even a draw play wouldn't have been bad there, QB has to get it away if there is any danger, find a way to escape enough to throw it away

    clumsy series by Houston after taking over in good field position
  • Non
    interesting use of the challenge

    for a first down on your own 30

    this is one you have to get if you're challenging in this scenario
  • Big_Mirg_ZHS
    Didn't like the challenge there.
  • Non
    only one challenge left

    in a game that looks like it could be very competitive with some other pivotal calls
  • mhs95_06
    Marvin looking for a better than fair spot everytime!
  • Terry_Tate
    Really stupid challenge there.

    Great play by Dalton to find Lee over the middle.
  • Non
    important for the Bengals that they ruled that down on the field

    so they didn't have to challenge and use their last one
  • Big_Mirg_ZHS
    Need six here
  • mhs95_06
    Good break-up by Green.
  • osu45804
    Nugent!
  • Non
    still a nice job by Dalton

    two scoring drives, should be three and 13-7, but if he keeps playing like this very steady, Bengals can win this game
  • Non
    chance for a turnover here I'd say

    not much on first down, 2nd and long

    Yates confused, needs to use a timeout
  • Big_Mirg_ZHS
    Need to stop here on third
  • mhs95_06
    Yates deep pass was an interception waiting to happen, but it didn't!
