Bengals rush defense is not the best and can still be suspect without Reader and Wilson in the lineup.
Bengals pass protection while getting better is still not good. Last time the Bengals played teams with elite pass rushers (Steelers and Cowboys) it did not fair so well.
Line is gelling a little better now but still needs improvement.
As others stated, It would be ideal to get a quick lead and try to get Browns away from rushing so much. It would also help if the Bengals can get a lead and then be able to rush the ball well themselves on offense to avoid Garrett and rest of the turds from pinning their ears back and constantly pass rushing.
Bengals have 3rd best pressure rating.

Points allowed by the Bengals defense in the last 15 third quarters:
0, 0, 0, 3, 7, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 3, 3, 0
that's 22 total points in 15 games
Bengals have not given up a 2nd half touchdown this season.
Bengals have given up 3 rushing TDs thus far this season.
Every NFL team Oline and defense can be better, but these units are not nearly as awful as you make them out to be.
