The bengals have one of the highest paid defenses (cap) in the NFL, 4th highest to be exact.

The Bengals also have the 4th highest paid offense.

This is a reflection on scouting, Director of player personnel, and lack of strategic structuring of contracts.

Teams with higher paid defenses, and offense spend rank.

Steelers (1) - 29th highest paid offense
Bears (2) - 19th highest paid offense
Chargers (3) - 28th highest paid offense
Bengals (4) - 4th highest paid offense

Teams with higher paid offense, and defense spend rank.
Rams (1) - 32nd highest paid defense
Chiefs (2) - 30th highest paid defense
Colts (3) - 15th highest paid defense
Bengals (4) - 4th highest paid defense

$132m on offense v $113m on defense.
