To a degree, but not one that’s make that performance ok. The Bengals OL has been pretty bad this year. 

Granted, but I think their biggest advantage today was in the brains department.

They figured out they could exploit the left side of our D and did it all day.

I'd add that sn NFL defense shouldn't be as vulnerable to simple draws and screens as ours was today. That's coaching.

Tried to tell y’all that the defense was going to be much worse off without Snow.  I despised Rhule, but Snows defense was good when not put in bad situations

Well you are looking correct. Particularly today.

 

You can’t openly disagree with the prior defensive coach…then take over…and make it look much worse. 
 

Oof.

If I’m not mistaken, I read somewhere that Wilks did not agree with the defense Snow built…one reason was he thought they were too light and needed more size. 

So he proceeded to fire Snow, promote his buddy and field a worse defence.

Good move, Wilks.

Yeah that’s ugly.  Wilks has a track record of being a poor defensive coach.  I like him as a person, but didn’t really expect an improvement based on his resume

This season is a lost cause. They are trying to win with fired coaches players that don’t fit the scheme they want to run. Nobody can defend what we saw today but it does not matter as a new regime will start in January.

So why change the (successful) scheme mid-season when you know you don't have the players to run it?

Ego.

This defensive scheme was not successful with Rhule/Snow. The entire team was terrible today. New coaches will be here in January

    • We have a Bryce Young problem and until it's resolved it's extremely hard to judge our coaching in any significant way. Canales has made mistakes, as any coach will, but he's also called plays that with even moderately average QB play would result in positive outcomes.  Canales' biggest "mistake" is trusting Bryce at all, but then, maybe he's just ensuring he has a new QB to work with next year.  We aren't the only team where players run the wrong routes, we just are one of a couple with a bottom 30 QB.
    • I thought that too Ie trying to prove ‘look, he cant do it under the lights on the big stage’ honestly, im Not sure he is that bright  then again, how many coaches and  offenses have to  fail to prop up young before this ends  i blame both canales and young for that defensive carnage Monday night   Both of them  …and ill say too, if part of the problem is after 12 games into the season, the receivers are still too deep in their routes then either new receivers are needed Or new coaching or the routes are failures  or the qb or all 4  they have had preseason, mini camps, training camp, practice and the season their coach was a receivers coach and now the OC   and they still cant consistently complete a pass  not a good look he has business being the OC and HC he isnt McVay and he isnt Reid   
    • That would’ve been even funnier and really summed up the night given it would’ve been an illegal forward pass.  Bryce is clearly throwing the ball forward to Chuba
