Reader being out definitely did not help but..........
the defense played well early and gave the offense a couple turnovers even. However the offense stunk and kept spinning their wheels so badly that a hole in the defenses dike sprung forth and then turned into a full levee break when offense kept putting them back on the field with 3 and outs and zero points.
Reader was not why the Bengals lost, believe these are the main culprits and it's 100% on the offense imo
36 total rushing yds against a team who has been getting gashed by the run all year
Sacks allowed by OL and allowing constant pressure on QB
3rd down efficiency
Less than 200 yds passing
Time of possession, the Brown offense was much more efficient than the Bengals were and it's that simple.
Bad punting and kicking did not help either.
Just can't hang this one on the D personally plus Browns had their fair share of injured players too. This team has to look in the mirror and find an identity quickly.

The water tastes funny when you're far from your home,
yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam.
