this was one of those games where the 22 and 21 defenses would bail the offense out. Cincy doesnt have that defense anymore. No Reader, Hubbard is older, Bj Hill is older, garbage DE depth, no jesse bates, no Awuzie.

Also this doesn’t get said enough but the way Trey Hendrickson rushes the passer makes him a bad run defender. He rushes as if he’s trying to explicitly get sacks for his next contract. He does it as if a run stop TFL is worthless to him. He often rushes right past the RB who has the damn ball

He’s one of the only top 8 pass rushers who is totally useless if he isn’t getting pressures and sacks.

A lot of this team is very limited. We’ve filled the team with a bunch of players who do multiple things but do nothing at an elite level
