Bengals are NOT living up to what I and many other so-called experts expected right now. A very predictable offensive coordinator and a Head Coach that isn't willing to take chances will do that to you. When the Offense is right in a game, the Defense gives up 35 or more points. But when the Defense is aggressive in a game and forcing turnovers the offense sputters and shuts down. Trying to stop a 3 game losing streak at home today and they NEED it .... Too bad the Bengals Defense is starting to look like Ohio State's defense with all the Injuries .... Today Roy Willams, Ndukwe, Johnathan Joseph & Adam "Pacman" Jones are inactive today in the Bengals secondary. And Adam Jones who has been having a pretty good season is possibly done for the year with a neck injury. Somehow that defense needs to grind out a great game AND the offense needs to click right out of the gate!

OF COURSE Bratkowski & Lewis find a way to fuck up the final 54 seconds & give Miami the ball back with 21 seconds at midfield and Miami gets 54 Yard FG ... 14-12 Halftime

i am not impressed with either team. i thought this would have been a better game. miami's offense just keeps stalling. and since the bengals started 4-4 on 3rd down they haven't done jack.

So 3rd & 4 and you throw a pass to the line of scrimmage to get 2 yards? WOW Where do I apply to be a offensive coordinator?? .... Huber pins Miami inside the 5 again at least

Ill play devils advocate. They looked good, but it is a huge aberration in the NFL to convert 4/4 on 3rd downs in one drive. A true solid drive will see maybe 2 3rd down conversions and the offense picking up first downs before they are forced to the 3rd down try. Eventually getting forced into 3rd down situations will catch up to an offense.

Well the Defense allows 98 yards in 6 plays .... They've been on the field the WHOLE 2nd half as the Bengals haven't gotten a 1st down since the 2nd Quarter

The Bengals suck and the Dolphins are decent. That's why the score is what it is.
