Too many awful games called by Musgrave this year. He may still make some good calls, as he IS an NFL OC, but he is not good at his job.

If you're the bengals why even run, we have three healthy corners and none are up to the caliber of these receivers.

They could have a field day just throwing at Cook all day.

I don't think Musgrave is as bad as people think. I think he tried to work with Ponder's strengths, but those aren't good enough for the NFL level. But really, it just boils down to failed execution. Basically, Ponder made Musgrave look worse than he really is--by his limitations AND failure to execute. I don't hate our offense when Cassel is playing. You guys do? It sure could be better, but it's improved since Ponder is out. #babysteps

Victim of his QB's limitations. He will return if Frazier does.

Yep, that was fortunate as he wasn't close to making a play.

Dalton is going after Cook on every play. Now Cook comes up limping.

lol just saw that replay of the last deep pass and Cook just falls over on his own. That could have / probably would have been a TD if it was Green or another good receiver instead of sinu.

Maybe the vikings should go have him get his eyes checked. He wasn't even close to getting the ball.

Peterson needs to get relevant, this defense isn't going to be able to stop the bengals much longer.

Hard to defend a pass when you are falling down. :steamed:
