How the Bengals could win out:

Moving pocket on various downs to keep Dalton from always being on the same spot. Wait, I think he just had another batted pass.

More two TE and three TE sets. Protection, variability, and big targets.

Play Winston and TJ Johnson. The rest of the line knows play well or be replaced. At least give them a shot.

Use the Double A gap blitz....don't just pretend it, use it. It has to actually be run once in a while to be an effective decoy when you drop out of it.

Boyd replaces LaFell

Well, the important thing is just to call your grandparents.

Seriously wtf is with Guenther dropping into coverage literally every single time we show the double a gap blitz?

'Likely' suggests its more than 50% change of them BOTH going 2-3.... I'm not saying it can't happen, but I don't think there's more chance of it happening than there isn't. It's the home straight of the season, good teams hit their stride now and both those teams need to get going if they're to stand much of a shot come playoff time anyway. I'd be surprised if NEITHER team has any kind of surge, but it could happen. I'm not saying it couldn't.

Sorry, but skip it.

I use this to give myself a fool's reason to continue to be interested in the idea of the playoffs. There is a scenario.
