This is Marvin Lewis' worst game as coach of the Bengals. He has no game plan, his players aren't ready, and the offense is totally out of sync. He's had 2 weeks to prepare good players (not great) for their most important game. Chad is totally undisciplined and is running poor routes. Running the ball on 3rd & 10 is simply the waving of a white flag on the passing game.

In any competetive NFL city, Marvin's job would be in jeopardy at 1-4 on Monday.

The Blackburns say Marvin "turned the franchise around." NO he has not.

Terrible!

I guess the ref's don't want the Bengals to be the only ones on the fields doing a piss poor job.

This is as bad as any Dick LeBeau led team in the 1990s. The defense is the worst in the NFL. The Special teams are worse, and the offense does not seem to care too much. And to make matters worse, there is not one player that has improved in the last few years. All are regressing.

Rudy Sucks.

The Blackburns are as clueless as Mike Brown and Marvin Lewis.

Just another day in Bengal land:

poor discipline
stupid ocho stinko
carson palmer overthrowing
defensive lapses at crucial points
offensive play calling an absolute joke

at least no clock mismanagement has had to occur yet.

As I've been saying all week, KC is kicking Cincy's ass, and next week the Jets will too because this is a lousy team with a lousy coaching staff and a clueless front office and owner.

Maybe Dusty Baker should manage the Bengals? He can't do worse than the idiot head coach we have now!

You could cut everyone but Carson and not play much worse than today. How many stupid penalties do we need to see out of the secondary? How many times do we need to see Palmer scrambling because the offensive line can't hold a block? How many times do we have to see lazy tackling (yes Dexter Jackson, running into a guy is not tackling) instead of wrapping and driving? Horrible! Why do I even bother caring anymore?

When the game is over, I hope I don't hear the words "we gave it our best effort". If that is true, then, Lewis doesn't have a clue what real talent is when he goes to the draft. I know these players have talent, but, they are not united and a lot of them are not putting forth the 100% effort that is required to win in the NFL. Thankfully, I will be out of town next and won't be able to watch them lose to the Jets.

Today's showcase of coaching incompetence brought to you by arrogant owners and incompetent coaches. What have they spent the last two weeks doing? And why haven't the Bengals thrown more to TJ downfield. When the game is over, they finally connect for a long bomb.

Instead of throwing 1 yard passes in the flat to TJ, you moron coaches, throw deep EVERY OFFENSIVE SERIES.

Freaking morons!

They keep a tackle past his prime, resign another tackle that was taken too early and neither can get on the field and let a great guard go to leave, a defense that is lost in space, an offense with individual egos and goals.....a coach that looks confused whether the deense or offense is on the field....yes the Bungals are back!!!!!

Carson needs to go too! The only player that is untouchable is TJ.

4 straight losses. Pathetic. Just pathetic. Time for a change.

Carson is overthrowing too often this season. However, only an idiot would want to get rid of Palmer. There's only a couple of QBs better than Palmer. Who the hell are you going to have lead the Bengals if you get rid of Palmer you moron? As badly as he's played these 4 games, he doesn't get to call the plays and it's not up to him to help ocho stinko grow up.

Carson is not the next comming of Jesus Christ, and he is not invincible. Who the hell is going to QB if Carson gets hurt you numbskull, we need a decent backup QB. Maybe then, when he starts making stupid mistakes, we can sit his ass on the bench.
