Bengals D is not a great D, but they are miles ahead of the offense.
You can't just look at points though, when we're talking about TOP. Our defense gave up 6/12 3rd downs + a 4th down conversion.
That's on them, and it gives our offense less opportunity when the D can't get off the field.
Not saying O > D. Just saying the D is playing a big role in our TOP struggles. Our lack of run game is culprit #2.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
