They were stuffing us in the first half. Couldn't run to save our lives. If not for Andy and his receivers this game would have been an ugly loss.
What are you talking about? They ran 5 times in the first half compared to 25 passes. Hill had 4 YPC in the first half. Lanes were definitely there.
Zampese's lack of run game led to sacks. Dalton was certainly rattled in the first half. He threw a poor INT and missed 2 TD passes to Uzomah due to being rattled.

There's 3 of the 9 run plays with Hill. There's certainly running lanes. And he also scored a TD, not in those tweets.
In this video, if Ogubehi stays engaged with the defender, it's 6.

That's 4 running plays where Hill had lanes, and obviously you've seen the TD.
The best way to slow down a pass rush is with the run game. Bengals didn't do that because they abandoned the run early.
