Sure eifert missing a lot of games along with green was part of it but you need your number 2 to be able to create separation when the coverage is tight and he was unable to do so.
No, he couldn't. A big, possession receiver isn't going to change the fact that, for most of the season, the Bengals had a terrible offensive line and a complete lack of a running game. Improve the line, add a back, and watch the offense soar with Core, Boyd, and AJ as the 3 WR set, with Eifert and Uzomah as the TEs. Kroft hasn't done a thing, and if not for being drafted in the third round, he would likely be getting no opportunities at all.
The best way to get this offense rolling is to get competition for Bodine, and get a really solid replacement for Zeitler. Dan Feeney would possible be an upgrade at the position. I also really like the Bistowanty (SP?) kid out of Pitt as a developmental left tackle to compete with Ced to be Whit's eventual replacement that could end up being a good prospect at Guard (something Ced certainly can't be...too weak).
