What about the other 18 teams in the league? You know. Where the Bengals reside.

Bad teams like the Bengals are going to have a hard time winning games whether or not they throw 40+ times.  It's hard to base an indictment of a style of offense based on teams with bad players and/or schemes.  

There is also a huge difference between throwing 40+ times because you have a pass happy scheme, like playoff teams like TB and KC did, and throwing 40+ times because you have a bad team and are down big on the scoreboard, like the Bengals or Jags.  

A scheme that has you throwing 40+ times a game is viable if you have the personnel to do it, as evidenced by the playoff teams and especially the SB teams.  It doesn't make a lot of sense to emulate an unsuccessful style of play.
