Two questions - bengals67 - 12-05-2017
Did we stop running the ball in second half ( after we were getting over 5 yards a carry) and if so why?
When Steelers went to max protection in fourth quarter, why did we continue to only rush 4?
I recall seeing the exact same thing play out in first Steeler game. No pressure whatsoever on Ben in crunch time.

I'm not one to defend this staff, but you gotta think some of it had to do with only having one RB left....and he may have been gassed. I don't recall Gio ever playing that many downs.
