So how do we fix the defense for next season?

Better defensive line play. The big 4 have been solid if unspectacular but the 40% of the snaps they aren't in thr game stand out.

BJ Hill and Zach Carter will be the starting pair going forward and I expect thr Chiefs and Browns to run right at them until the Bengals are forced to play more guys in the box then take the 1 on 1 shots on the sideline... just like the Steelers did yesterday.

Bengals will need to attack the IDL in Free Agency & the Draft both.
