Dunlap doesnt have very many batted passes.
Geno isnt finishing.
where was Dunlap and Atkins when we needed a stop vs the Steelers? when Ben started inside the 20 I think. 
where was those 2 when the Ravens ran the ball.down our throats?
yeah I get it....its.a team.game.but when you give out extensions the next step is take your game to another level.
7.sacks dont impress me at all. especially when QBs are getting it done on 3rd down.
I watched Wallace Gilberry get.6.5 sacks in less snaps 4 years ago.

Dunlap has 5 PDs which is more than any LB or DL on the team and tied for third on the team. 5 is tied for his third most in a season (15 in 2016, 7 last year) and there are still 4 games left.
Atkins is 2nd Best DT when it comes to sacks.
What exactly are you basing their “poor” performance on? The fact they aren’t single-handedly winning a game like Khalil Mack or Aaron Donald have? If that’s the case, Mack and Donald are the two highest paid defensive players in the league and are the best. Dunlap and Atkins aren’t the best but they are pretty damn good.
The Bengals can’t just magically snap their fingers and have a Mack or Donald.
