That would be taking the foot off the gas peddle too early. Against the Lions and Ravens, the Bengals got some starters out at the right time in middle of the 4th quarter. The 3rd quarter in an NFL Game is too risky, these Pro Teams can score fast. Lets say 34 to 9, take starters out and Jets score fast and get 2 point conversion and now 34 to 17 still in 3rd quarter. Now you have to put the starters back in. That stuff is OK in college, but not in the NFL. I'm thinking the same type score as you, but with starters coming out midway through the 4th quarter.
The only way Bengals will pull starters will be A, an absolute, no doubt about it blowout where there just isn't enough minutes on the clock to come close or B, too many injuries..
