The Bengals are not built to be a power rushing team. They don't have the OL to drive off the LOS.
Their strength lies in positional blocking and moving in unison.
The NFL field width is fine for running outside, as evidenced plenty by teams such as the 49ers.
If the Bengals really want to be successful, they need to try to be adaptive to the Raiders though and exploit their weaknesses.
If the Raiders are susceptible to inside runs, try it.
If that's not working, try outside.
In the passing game, try shorter routes if longer plays aren't working.
