The Cincinnati defense now allows an average of 32.00 points per game after coughing up 51 points to the Saints. This number isn’t going to decrease as the season progresses, either, and without a defensive coordinator change the Bengals will continue to lose. I had great expectations of Teryl Austin as the season began but he’s the worst defensive coordinator I’ve ever seen in Cincinnati; worse, even, than Leslie Frazier and Chuck Bresnahan. That’s not just bad. It’s historically bad.
Even in the pass- and points-happy NFL, defense still wins championships.
