If I were in charge of the Bengals today

I thought there were.
Mixon had 5 receptions for a total of one yard. Pretty much all of those receptions wouldn't have come on anything other than a screen.
Evans' one reception was just for three yards. I thought that was a screen too but maybe it was a different short route, can't remember.
The only thing I remember for Evans was that missed pass.

I think the opposing defense just did a really good job of shutting down Taylor's offense in the 2nd half.

Pollack's strength in coaching is clearly the run game.
The run game was going mostly smooth too, but leaning on Perine at the end just wasn't a good idea. He just doesn't run with power like you would think of a 240 lb RB.

I was shocked too. ONE SCREEN all game; against the worst defense in the NFL versus the screen. The commentary is out there, asking why the Bengals essentially did none of the thing offenses do to cause a pass rush to hesitate.
