The red zone play calling is beyond predictable. Bring in extra linemen, run Hill into the line for two consecutive no gains, then throw on third down. Zampese really needs to get more creative because field goals are not going to cut it in every game.
The line actually held up better than I thought it would last night, but you can't be forced to bring in extra linemen every time you want to run the ball. You're basically telling the entire stadium what you are doing. There were times last night that the Bengals had seven guys blocking, and they still only averaged 2.1 yards a carry against a team that struggles to stop the run.
Anyone else surprised that Kroft has not been targeted more?
