I heard this on the radio the other night, it might not be exact but it's close.
The Bengals are 0-4 when Dalton has 50+ pass attempts. We're 2-10-1 when Dalton has 40+ pass attempts. We have to keep Dalton's attempts in the 25-35 range or we'll lose this game and continue to lose all season if we keep him in the 40 attempts and above area.
We can't go on getting 40 yards a game from the RB's, Miller will have a field day if we can't run !
RIGHT......except Johnny Unitas, Joe Montana and Peyton Manning rolled into one would still need a running game.......This is not brain surgery.....You run the ball 50 % of the time because if you don't the D will just play pass defense and kill your QB.....So far this season the Bengs under new OC Xampy are running the ball about 5 or 10 % of the time. That means we are passing about 90 % of the time. That only works in computer game football. It will not work in real football. .......YOU ARE RIGHT.....WE NEED A RUNNING GAME....and some power runs, not this fake pass delayed hand off garbage. Is The Statue Of Liberty Zampese's only running play ???
