Super Bowl LVI Predictions.

The plan for the Rams to win wouldn't work without that BS call. I hate it for the Bengals. NFL against small market teams. always.

 

It doesn't take a football genius to see that Downing was pretty real bad at play calling in the Titans loss to the Bengals.

Downing has had his moments, and I'm not going to act like I could personally do a better job, but it's not hard for me to see a drop-off in our play calling from when Arthur Smith was here.

A combination of three people cost us that game: Downing (offensive play calling, not giving the ball to the hot hand (Foreman) more), Vrabel (idiotic 2-pt conversion attempt), and Tannehill (tunnel-vision passing).

 

This coming from the guy that’s wanted Downing fired the last few weeks? You don’t even make sense sometimes.

 

if that line held up .5 sec longer ; Bengals champs. Ramsey fell down. Literally a game of inches and a seconds longer …

 

I can want Downing fired and still have hope. You appear to think the whole team is trash.

 

I remember DHop absolutely gashing him in a Jags/Texans game, but if I tree falls in a forest...

Definitely his worst national game.

 

I looked at this thread yesterday and I didn’t even wanna face it. Those Bengals should not be there. We shoulda taken care of them. With that said, it was mostly a poop game.

 

Bengals would have been losing at that point without the 75 yard TD to Higgins where he grabs Ramsey's facemask. So there were bad calls throughout the game on both sides. This one only stands out because it's at the end of the game.

And while this call was a nitpicky, Wilson did indeed grab him. I don't think it should have been called, but I've seen worse calls.

 

Burrrow wasn't looking that way though. Possible he could have gone through his reads and saw him, but Ramsey probably had help over the top too that might have saved a TD.

Most likely, he was looking to go to Uzomah, who had a bit of space and was a couple yards past the 1st down marker.
