My bigger issue with the Bengals is how predictable their playcalling is based on the formation they come out in.
Obviously, empty set = pass. But when they came out in singleback, it was almost always a run. I don't know if this is just small sample bias or confirmation bias, but I don't really remember us doing any play action against Pittsburgh out of the singleback set and I don't remember us passing out of singleback either (although that one I am just going off of memory, it's entirely possible we passed out of it a time or two).
I'd love to see them vary up their sets so the defense won't know what is going to happen based on the formation (outside of empty sets, of course).
