Bengals at Chargers Game Day Thread (Week 11) | Post Game Discussion

[Fouts2herbert]

Marvin Harrison - 499 yards 6 TD
Malik Nabers - 607 yards 3 TD
Ladd McConkey - 615 yards 4 TD

McConkey has been fantastic, and QJ with another TD today

We did not deserved this win.
Unluckinest (is that a word) has shifted away from us with JH.

I’d say Harbaugh is the difference. Herbert choked in the 2nd half. If we lost the game it was on him

Disagree with this - sure we could have set up the game winning kick, but anything can happen on a FG. Botched snap/hold, missed, blocked, etc. Taking the guaranteed TD and leaving the Bengals with 18 seconds and one timeout was the right play, even as close as that hail mary was. If there had been closer to a minute+ left (and still with the Bengals only having 1 timeout), then I would agree with taking a knee.

Dobbins shouldve gone down inside the 5. The game was over at that point. A selfish play that almost cost us.

Why, so they kick a field goal? As we saw with KC and DEN, a kick isn't guaranteed and things can go wrong.

I did not. No idea what you are talking about. Absolutely ridiculous and I take some big time umbrage at suggesting as much -- further personal attacks are lame in the internet space anyway. as you really don't know me and I don't know you; a bunch of keyboard jockeying is really silly, Further, Herbert stunk in the second half. The scheme was fine. It looked like Cincy played different looks and Herbert was getting confused. He got sped up, his footwork went to hell, and he missed throws. He has had accuracy problems going back to Oregon, when he gets sped up. He has improved, but not enough. The positive is the team won, and Herbert can hopefully learn from this. He really is a game manager at this point -- but his athleticism is damn amazing. Very much like Josh Allen in that way. However, the only thing that kills momentum more than poor accuracy is what? Turnovers. That fumble by Herbert came at an awful time. Again, a lot to learn from this game, which I bet Harbaugh will mention was "kinda messy" at some point during his press conference.

Irony...Herbert had his 15th game winning drive tonight. Joe Burrow has 7 in his career.

Justin also hit Ladd with two huge throws on our last drive.

anyone who says it was selfish is absolutely stupid...take the gimme TD with less than half a min or setup for a game-winning FG with possible issues? It wouldnt have been a close FG either as the ball was close to the 30. absolutely NO choice there BUT to score TD.

Whole team choked 2nd half

Previous years Herbert had to be perfect for us to win.
at least now he has a bit of a buffer.


Although he made big time throws to Ladd to win us the game. I dunno

[jubei]

OK, Chargers are ,7-3 and the only thing that matters is the future .

Throw the ball to McConkey more , to Johnson less, and Palmer in between.

Quit leading the league in “ missed sacks” having 2 fricken hands on the QB and not finishing

Nice to see JH , Fulton, Tuli and McConkey and the bookend Tackles playing at a high-level👍…. Looking forward to getting Mack and Samuel back……Where is Chalk?

I dunno about happy to have asj back...the young'ns ae playing better than asj was when he got put on IR. but Cam Hart is on concussion protocol now so we may not have a choice. I hope Tarheeb is OK.
BTW who is Chalk? I dont even know if we have a Chark for that matter!

[Boltdiehard]

Justin still looks pretty amped at the podium lol.

Shit got crazy and we won. Woohoo!

Go Chargers!

Tirico used the term Chargering tonight. Websters dictionary needs to add it.

Yeah heard that. Never expected an announcer to start using our vernacular.
