[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 515996, member: 2846"] I know what you are all thinking. 'I wish the Amish Mafia would end all this arguing and explain what the truth is.' Okay, here goes: - It was a bad call on McCarthy's part - Cincy has a big line and our OL is not the road grader sort. The plan was to cut down (I suspect) the DL so that Franklin could leap over. It was too risky, however, and went against the strength of the Bengals. - The fumble was Franklin's fault. It's not McCarthy's fault - if he doesn't make it and fumbles it doesn't matter - Cincy gets the ball anyway. Should he have anticipated the return for a TD? No. - The play call should have been from a formation with 2 WRs wide 2 TEs in close and Franklin alone. Rodgers pitches ball and Franklin runs wide. A guard and opposite TE pull. Franklin was amazing all game at picking up creases and darting through. I'm sure he would have found a yard or two and who knows, when the D is up close like that, the opportunity for breaking a big one is there. [/QUOTE]
