Well, if it is against the Rams, I would say the key would be plastering Kupp and make Stafford hold the ball a bit longer with unique defensive formations. This has actually been a strength for the Bengals this year. Hope the defense can create pressure with the front four, and as my guy Pratt would say: "get the damn ball out".
On offense, it will be about having a quick checkdown. The Rams won't blitz a lot (at least I don't think), but Burrow will need a quick checkdown with good hands like Evans or CJ every pass play.
Mixon will be a huge part of it. Make the defense chase him sideline to sideline and help wear out their rush. SF has shown how this can be effective without very good QB play.
