That's the major issue I think we have on defense. When Zimmer was here, we got pressure from the front 4. Teams know now that they just have to double Atkins and chip Dunlap and it will slow us down.
MJ and Peko aren't really pass rushers. Plus we had an 8 man rotation. That's gone too.
The weak zone defense the Bengals play coupled with no pass rush has been the downfall of the defense.
