Cincinnati passed the ball about 59.5% of the time last season. However, that trended up significantly as the season went on. From week 13 on, they passed the ball 66% of the time. Over the course of the playoffs, they threw the ball 67% of the time. So far, Cincinnati is throwing the ball 68% of the time this season. Over the last two games, that has been 75% of the time but this isn't anything unheard of, as Cincinnati threw the ball 71% of the time over the Ravens/Chiefs game towards the end of last season.
Cincinnati is running the same split that got them to the Super Bowl, is what I am saying. The fact that this has been deviated from over the last two weeks isn't unheard of, as they did it last season. However, the run game is absolutely atrocious this season. Significantly worse than last season. If your running game is this bad, it doesn't make sense to run more. It only hurts you.
