Our 27th ranked offense IS the bright spot of the team!
Those are a 3-13 teams stats. The turnovers that the defense scored on let us squeak out a few extra wins than we should have.

.....but 15th in scoring. Overlooked here, is that Erickson has actually had a very nice season returning kicks. He has set the offense up quite a few times with excellent field position on scoring drives, which has hurt the yards. The only game the defense actually won was Miami. We had the lead in Indy when the defense FINALLY made a play to keep them from blowing yet another lead.
I keep expecting to see the defense be 33rd.
Okay guys, now go out there and make history.
I'm diagnosing myself with Bengals induced glaucoma. Where's my weed?

With all the scoring going on this year, I'm shocked that they are 15TH???????

With AJ Green in your team, that's already half the victory right there.
Yes, the dynamic duo of Mike and Marvin has things in great shape.Their duties are apparently casting a pall, creating malaise and indifference, and distributing wet blankets.
Couldn't our tackles today be Whitworth and Villanueva? And our guards Boling and Zeitler? Don't gimme that cap crap either. Other teams find a way.
No team since the merger (1970) has ever had the quadfecta of being this bad (dead last) on D (Total, Rush, Pass, Scoring). Only the 97 Raiders came close.

Actually, there's been a slight improvement under Marv as DC. PPG dropped from 32 to 27, 3rd down conversion went down from 56% to 46%, and avg yards per game has also went down from 454 to 368.

Hey...maybe these rankings are wrong like the PFF rankings!
Bengals are back to being a comedy show.
