The Bengals offense ran 1080 plays in 2024 or 63.5 plays per game. Our defense had 1088 plays or 64 per game.
Offense averaged 382 yards a game and defense gave up 361 game.
Many consider our offense elite (top 6 is very good). But our defense gave up only less 21 yards per game than our elite offense.
Many want to blame Zac for one or 2 bad play calls per game yet ignore the 61 plays a game he got right.
Our offense has an average to poor OL. Our run gun is average at best. Our defense was the issue in both 2023 and 2024. I place the blame on the FO and the defensive coaching staff.
Why blow up the entire team because we missed the playoffs by one game 2 years in a row. The FO should have addressed LG and the defensive talent issues.
I am glad to see they addressed Lou and Pollack albeit both a year late.
Now let's hope Zac and the FO bring in major coaching upgrades in 2025 and address the guard position and DL + safety in FA.

2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.
