All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

We were all screaming run, run , run. Even though Cinci were somewhat prepared for that, I think the way we were running the ball, we could pick that up, even if we don't, we run the clock down to 2 minute warning.
We just don't have the players for a high percentage 3 yard route at that time. Harvey came uncovered on that play, but he just could not push to the side line hard enough -- in his first full game back this season.

I think we could and maybe should have run the ball.
On the throw to Harvin, I doubt it was his lack of conditioning that prevented him from getting to the sideline. You can imagine that TT was going to be very safe with that throw and push is to the boundary as hard as he could to make sure it wasn't picked off. It was probably too far and too fast for Harvin to reach it.
I hated the play call, but Harvin was definitely open. A capable QB hits that throw 4 times out of 5 and we win the game right there.
I actually think the throw was OK. It was a two-step throw, well before Harvin getting his breaks, and it landed inbound. You can see it from the start no defender on the outside. Tming was off, and like the commentator said, Harvin needed to break for outside as hard as he can and as soon as he can.

You could be right. It could have been a bad route, maybe the timing was off, maybe there was a gust of wind. The thing is though, I don't care about any of those things. A good QB completes a pass to an open receiver 3 yards down field for the game winning first down. If Tyrod didn't think he could complete that pass to a new receiver that he hasn't had a chance to work much with, then he shouldn't have thrown it. At the very least, it's a play that shouldn't have been called.
I'm more concerned about several other throws of Tyrod, like the one Woods got hurt on. That one should be intercepted. The one that was intercepted -- the ball should be thrown to the back of endzone, allowing Goodwin continue his momentum and away from the defender. The one to Clay in the 4th quarter where they beat the blitz ...
Overall the passing offense seemed a bit off from everyone yesterday. The one thing that was effective was the running attack, but they seemed to go away from that simply because Cinci put 8th guy in the box. They actually did fine against 8 guys in the box most of the time yesterday.

I still don't understand why they did't run the ball into the endzone when they were inside the 3. With TT it should be a TD every time when inside the redzone. It should be too hard to defend TT and our running game from that close in.
