The first 3 or 4 series was all 3 and outs every play was behind the line of scrimmage. Everything was so short they just had to crowd the line of scrimmage to stop us.I do really struggle with how we read teams are taking away the deep passes and yet too many times the short throws are well defended too. I also find that too many passes are to receivers who are standing still and then get limited YAC. There were a couple of short check downs to Perine that he caught moving forward that got first downs. I think having Chase run crossing routes would open up a lot of room. They cannot run with him across the field so will have to pass him off. Bengals can exploit this. Also, Boyd has been pretty quiet this year and I still think Hurst can be used better downfield.
