He did this with a defense that wasnt overly talented yet Bengals management decided to let leave some of the better talent Lou did have. If Lou really was at fault and it wasnt a lack of talent on defense, the Bengals management should go all in on offense this draft and let Golden work with all this great talent Lou didnt coach up. They already upgraded the DT spot and brought in a great LB free agent steal. The offense needs a couple of guards, a true TE, another RB and could use another WR so the Bengals could spend all their draft picks on offense.
Lou's defense carried us in the 2021 playoffs. It was a bad defense during the regular season.
2022 is the 1 year out of 6 that I mentioned.
The Bengals spent more money on Lou's defense bringing in outside FAs than they did on FAs in the entire rest of Bengals outside FA history COMBINED. We were among the top cap spenders on defense in the entire NFL for most of Lou's time here.
