Our D is stacked with Geno returning to 100%, MJ back with Dunlap rushing the passer, Burfict returning to be all over the field, our young corners coming to play, and even guys like Hardison could surprise by causing havoc in the middle.
Whoever we play in the playoffs better hope that it's a warm game or that Hill is hurt because games in the cold are won on the ground, and Hill was the best back in the league when he was on the field last year, which everyone conveniently overlooks.
Games are lost on the grounds too
Hill and a D cannot carry Andy Dalton. Ok, yea, he went 0-2 in his first two seasons with no TDs and 4 picks. Chalk that up to being young. But since then, he is 0-2 with 1 TD and 2 picks. That's 1 TD and 5 picks in 4 playoff games over 4 seasons. That's pathetic.
No one will pick the Bengals to even reach the AFCCG until Dalton can prove he can win in January.
At least Flacco's bad playoff play ended his 3rd year.
