Look at the New Orleans Saints. They shut out Tom Brady and the Buccaneers so anything is possible.
Seriously, the Bengals’ defense is playing at a high level but they’re getting no respect nor any attention from the sports media. As far as I’m concerned it will take a complete shutout for Lou Anarumo and his guys to get the respect they so richly deserve.
Just once I want to see an opposing team leave the field against the Bengals with zero points. The Cincinnati defense easily has enough talent on that side of the ball to accomplish this. I want to see the Ravens, the Chiefs, or the Browns held scoreless.
Yea unfortunately, i dont think you're going to see that with this currently make up in the team. LB are weak currently.
I mean hell the Ravens defense of 2000 was one of the best in NFL history and they had 4 shut outs in that season.
Heck even during on of our best years in 2015, we have 0 shut outs under Zimmer.
This is still a 10-15 ranked defense. They surprise us and they'll keep us in games but they arent a great defense yet.
