There were at least 7 teams that averaged 4.5 ypc or more that didn't even make the playoffs, a couple more that didn't win a playoff game and another one the Bengals beat in the Bills.
Burrow has proven that he'll also take off when nothing is downfield to get big 1st down conversions.
you're gonna need to do better than 4.1 and 3.9 ypc. Bengals dont have to be a run first team, I dont want them to be
but the run game has to be effective when called upon. 3.9 and 4.1 both stink. It has to be addressed and fixed
