PRO FOOTBALL REPORT WEEKDAY UPDATE : RAMS : Robinson: Bengals Not So Unusual
Coach John Robinson watched Monday night’s Cincinnati-Seattle game with special interest--the Rams play host to the Bengals Sunday--and he got a view of his opponent he wouldn’t get watching game films, which don’t include the action between plays.
Cincinnati’s line-of-scrimmage huddle, designed to keep opponents from changing defenses, can present problems, but it didn’t bother the Seahawks, who won, 31-16.
“You tend to say, ‘Oh, boy, Cincinnati, they do all this (stuff),’ ” Robinson said. “But you know, they don’t do so many unusual things. They just do that no-huddle thing that forces you into a normal down-and-distance (defense) all the time.
“What we’re arriving at is that they’re not so unusual. They do just these certain things, and we’re adjusting to them.”
About 8,500 tickets remain for Sunday’s game. All must be sold by 1 p.m. Thursday to lift the local television blackout.
