Is Our D-Line Going To Eat This Week?!

are about as good of running teams as there is in the NFL. Us not having any semblance of a passing game against these teams 
for 6 quarters also kept our Defense on the field tons and wore us down.

We do well against King Henry. Tyjae Spears was my guy in this last Draft though and he concerns me a bit. But this isn't the 
Stains with Nick Chubb or the Ratbirds with Lamar Jackson. We should be able to slow down the run and get after Tannehill in 
this one, I just don't like to jinx ourselves before the game. Seems to happen every time we think we should feast on a weakness.

The good teams find ways to defend/attack the opposition's good players.
I know both the Browns and Ravens have good running games, but that's not necessarily justification to excuse the run defense because they went against great run games.


I'm not saying every single team is gonna run wild on the Bengals, but they do need to find ways to neutralize good players.
