Hendrickson tied for 3rd among individual players (7.0). Most in league is 8.0 - Danielle Hunter and TJ Watt.

Bengals did well from a run defense perspective against ARZ and LAR, but they've allowed a lot of rushing yards against the other 4 teams.

If the Bengals can get their run defense going like we're used to and/or getting some more pass rush from others not named Hendrickson, Hubbard, and Hill, that should help a ton.

Meant Seattle? Held them to just 3.5 ypc despite some sloppy tackling. The Bengals allowed 142 rushing yards at 6.5 yards per carry to Arizona and got lucky it wasn't more because their RB got hurt mid-game.

Even the Rams while only allowing 71 rushing yards, they allowed 5.5 yards per carry which isn't good, the Rams just only rushed 13 times.
