Exactly. I view the Bengals offense similar to the Chiefs offense. You have a good QB that for the most part has good (not great) passing stats, doesn't turn the ball over much, and adds in a bit with his legs. While Maclin isn't AJ Green, Eifert isn't Kelce. But those are the two main receiving threats. The difference between the offenses are that the Chiefs are much more of a successful running team. They have running threats even without Charles. Tyreek Hill adds in that explosion from a WR and RB standpoint that the Bengals don't have. The Chiefs also have a stud defense whereas the Bengals took a step back in 2016.

The Bengals MO this offseason needs to be SPEED. Get at least one offensive weapon that can be a threat to take it to the house on any touch. Prefer both a deep threat WR and a dynamic RB. They also need speed at LB.
