However, did you stay and watch our last drive of the game? The Bengals were using the No-Huddle Offense and it WORKED. Did you see the Defense of the Ravens were gassed? The announcers sure did and they stated that. So why wait until the last quarter to run these plays instead of using them in the first quarter?
You can’t look at the last drive of a game and say, seeeee our offense is working. All teams with a lead play some type of prevent defense. Give up the middle and the underneath, just don’t get beat. We dinked and dunked down the field. We didn’t get a 40 yard seam route to chase or Higgins.
They should have gone no huddle way sooner, but not because it “was working”, only because we needed to score, stop, and get the back back and score again.
