Turnovers also easily found on espn, nfl, etc sites too.
Bengals defense has 7 turnovers, 6 intros & 1 fumble recovery. They are pretty much right at league average (7.8) tied at 17th with the Clowns. I dont see this as a glaring issue though obviously more turnovers are always welcome.
However punt returns they are terrible, and not much better in kick returns. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2016/#all_returns
Punt returns - tied last in the league 32nd with the Cards with a 6.1 yard average. 15 yards is the longest this year.
Kickoff returns - tied 24th with the Steelers with a 19.8 yard average. 26 yards is the longest so far this year.
In other words, we have one of the worst return games in the entire league right now. So I agree with the OP, they arent doing the offense any favors at all with field position. Just absolutely awful.
Great stats links! From that page, what stands out to me is our defense is giving up 5.9 yards per play and opposing quarterbacks have a 105.3 QB rating.
