JLambert58 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 What the actual... were they thinking with that asinine call? What a waste. Well at least they made the stop and were able to put points on the board before half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He attempts to call at 00:07. Refs don't whistle the play dead until 00:03 despite the fact that there is no forward momentum at 00:07. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that little time on the clock, it doesn't make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that the problem there is Bell has to go in motion before you can audible for a few reasons: There might not be a set call with the formation the way it was. Bell in motion can tell you man V zone (which it was man). Then you have to wait for him to get set. Unless there's a kill that switches it from a run to a pass with one word it's a tough audible.

steelcurtain29 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 In other hilarious news, as of right now; my kicker has almost outscored my opponent's ENTIRE TEAM this week in fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bengals defense was lined up differently, with our time out, it couldve made sense by catching them off guard.....but ultimately, it wasnt necessary. We were at the 5 yard line. Unless they were planning on trying to run it from possibly the one yard line on 3rd down (which they wouldnt have done), youre right....it didnt make sense. But again, if the Bengals were lined up differently, I wouldnt have completely hated it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. But then my problem is why run a play in that situation that has no other options to adjust to the defense. We have a veteran QB let him read the defense and give him multiple options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have the best HB in the NFL. They're playing the pass. A draw is a good play if Bell goes down. Even with Bell refusing to go down the reality is the refs screwed Tomlin on that one. Bell was down with no forward momentum at 00:07. They let him lay there for 4 more seconds before whistling it dead effectively giving no chance at a shot at the endzone which they would've had with 7 seconds on the clock.

warfelg Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Sorry but 7 in the box showing man isn't playing the pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're 15 minutes removed from the play but I am sure the LoS was crowded. Wait. Now you got me confused bro. 7 in the box in that situation is certainly playing the pass. The Bengals were certainly concerned about a shotgun pass on that respective snap more than they were a run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
