I’m on a Cavs message board and i predicted them getting Kevin Love a while back and i thought i was invincible after that
In the end they went to the Super Bowl so the game didn’t matter.

The OT they drafted this year in the first round was ruled out due to appendicitis, and according to Titans fans their LT Andre Dillard is average at best. The Titans' offensive line ranks only ahead of the Jets’ line with a 4.08 blown block percentage, per Sports Info Solutions.
Unlike Sean McVay, the so called "ofensive guru" that for some reason forgot about how poor and miserable our run defense is, Mike Vrabel knows very well that Tannehill will not win this game throwing a lot, so he will probably run Derrick Henry like 20+ times and burn the clock, pretty much like the Ravens did against us some weeks ago.

Should be a big game for Germaine Pratt, as well.

Yes it is, bottom five. The Bengals are allowing 5.1 yards per carry and 151.7 rushing yards per game on average, that's the fourth worst of the league.

Playing Chubb and Lamar is a lot of that. They were much better against the Rams.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but even against Cleveland our run D was pretty good until later in the 2nd half when our D was clearly gassed because our offense did absolutely nothing all game.

I don’t remember but i do remember Lamar Jackson toying with us. That game was BAD. It was almost like we gave up.

Nah, the Browns mauled Cincinnati the entire game. In the first half, Cleveland had 14 designed runs for 95 yards, or 6.78 yards per carry. It gets worse if you include Watson's scrambles, which push it past 120 yards and over 7 yards per carry.

True , but we played 2 of the best rushing offenses in the league.
And...
Browns game was in the rain vs Chubb and the offense punting 10 times with a million 3 and outs.
Ravens; Gus had 2 decent runs & otherwise shutdown & Lamar being Lamar.
Rams had one WR end around.
The stats are what they are and will see how it goes moving forward, but I dont see any need in expecting them to be terrible vs the run the rest of the season based on these first games.

Browns had almost twice as many offensive plays than the Bengals. The defense wasnt good but the offense was pathetically awful.

Oh, for sure. That game was just awful all around, honestly. There was very little positive to take away from that game.

Typical when the Bengals play backups.

Hard to be good against the run when your down by 30 and been on the field for 45 minutes.
