The last half of that season was the last time we were able to run the ball successfully with any consistency at all.

The Bengals were a solid rushing team in 2015.

I know someone will bring up the running backs YPC but it's misleading. In 2015 they were not afraid to run on 3 and short because they consistently converted. Jeremy Hill also had nose for the end zone from around the 10 yard line. What they were missing was those big chunk runs which kept the YPC down.


Edit: As for 2018 they need to figure out some semblance for a run game because they can't be one dimensional on offense. The AFC North seems to be fielding the really good defenses this season.
