San Diego vs. Cincy (1 Viewer)

[Buffaloes]

hello, new best uniforms in the league. those are nice

 

[PennStater77]

Nice run Joe

 

[FreeBaGeL]

I always love when players complain to the refs about not getting a flag that's actually already been thrown they just didn't see it.

 

[SoBeDad]

Is Tyler Boyd even playing? No targets in almost a half. I thought they had good rapport in practice.

 

[Despyzer]

I can't blame Anthony Lynn for going for it twice on 4th and short. Those are gut-check moments, and the Bengals D had more heart than the Chargers O both times.

 

[Despyzer]

Completely wipe out Mike Williams as he's going for the catch and... no penalty.

I don’t understand this at all. I could have traded Boyd several times this offseason. 

 

[timschochet]

I drafted Ekelar pretty early (round 2.) It’s only one game, we’re still in the 3rd quarter, but I have this sinking feeling that he’s going to be a bust. 
The problem isn’t him it’s Taylor. The defense has absolutely no fear of him whatsoever and they’re sticking 8 or 9 men in the box every damn play. There’s not going to be any running room this season. 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

San Diego?

 

[Long Ball Larry]

honestly, tyrod looks better today than I remember him. Taking more shots and keeping his eyes downfield better.

 

[Buffaloes]

San Diego?

has a better ring than Inglewood

 

[Long Ball Larry]

has a better ring than Inglewood

stay classy.

He's averaging almost 5 yards a carry, so don't lose your mind. Josh Kelley might be the bigger concern for Ekeler owners.

 

[timschochet]

That could be. Kelley comes in on 3rd and 5 in the red zone, scores the TD. 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Agree that Kelley might be an issue, but yeah, he's doing well and he's got 17 carries and a target.  not sure what more people want.

They want Phillip Rivers and 13 dump offs per game.  Ekler is still at least a RB2, but he's not what he was with Rivers.

 

[DonnieA]

major rookie mistake.

 

[PennStater77]

WOW, What a bad decision by Burrow on the shovel pass.. That may have worked vs Mississippi

 

[timschochet]

Burrow was looking so good until that shovel pass. Ugh

 

[Joe Summer]

Burrow threading needles.

 

[Joe Summer]

Burrow looks like Luke Skywalker inside that helmet.

 

[PennStater77]

Burrow should kick Bullock in the nuts

 

[FreeBaGeL]

Wow.  Don't care who wins but good call, and way to have the stones to throw an OPI flag there.

 

[PennStater77]

LOL. Cincy

 

[Buffaloes]

LA Clippers caught a break w the OPI there. what a way to end the game

 

[Joe Summer]

That's just the perfect ending for Cincinnati. LOL

 

[belljr]

I like the guy screaming, "how you make that ####### call"

 

[rockaction]

He hurt himself on the kick. Same old Bengals. A 31 yarder and he pulls a calf.

 

[Buffaloes]

for as weird as 2020 has been, Cincy and Detroit have managed to be so on brand

 

[dbc925]

Same old Bengals.

 

[djmich]

Bungles gonna bungle

 

[PennStater77]

Its easy to say now, but should have threw one more to the endzone.. Burrow was actually in a zone and firing the ball.

 

[Despyzer]

Stupid announcers: "And the Chargers sideline is elated that he's hurt!"

Well, that's a really weird assumption.

 

[Joe Summer]

Its easy to say now, but should have threw one more to the endzone.. Burrow was actually in a zone and firing the ball.

7 seconds is plenty of time these days.

 

[QuizGuy66]

The presence of Bobby Hart in the starting line-up continues to make me sad :(

The presence of Bullock as the starting kicker continues to make me sad :(

The fact these 2 surely will be gone when Burrow is leading this team into contention in a couple years makes me happy

I think the Game threads are great place to jot some notes and ask questions on Mondays. 

-I felt that San Diego would run the ball enough to warrant 2 RBs getting significant touches, Ekeler got 19 carries and not much receiving but that might change game to game. Kelley owners who took a chance last round of the draft must be happy to see 12/60/TD, again nothing really shaking for the RBs coming out of the backfield on pass plays. 

-TT only 50% completion rate, they're in trouble when they don't face Cinci every other week of 2020. 

LAC may want to run the ball 30-35 times between Ekeler and Kelley, that might not always mean huge numbers. 

Joe Mixon another avg day running ht eball, he is always a high 2nd round grab, even higher in some leagues, not much return there. Burrow ran the lone TD in from 20+ yds out. 

AJ Green still seems to be the top WR in Cinci but 5/50 could cost owners, doesn't seem like an auto start just yet. 

Both offenses seem limited right now.

don't forget the browns.
